Mining Permit No. 29-13 Lexington Quarry Davidson County Dear Jack Garbvey: ROY COOPER covri or MICHAEL 5, REGAN sermrary TRACY DAVIS oarrmr This letter is to advise you of recent amendments to the North Carolina Mining Act of 1971 which impact the permit term of your existing mining permit. Pursuant to the passage of House Bill 56, which became law on October 4, 2017 as SL 2017-209, all existing mining permits and any newly issued mining permits are to be issued for the life of site or for the duration of the lease term. The "life of site" means the period from the initial receipt of a permit for the operation until the mining operation terminates and the required reclamation is completed. Considering the above, this letter hereby modifies your existing mining permit to remove all references to the prior expiration date to convert your permit to a life of site or lease permit effective immediately. No action is required on your part for this modification to be effective. Please attach this letter to your existing mining permit for future reference. The mine name and permit number on the permit document, and all existing operating and reclamation conditions contained therein, shall remain in full force and effect. Furthermore, all provisions of GS §74-51 and GS §74-52 still apply to all new, transferred and modified mining permits. In addition to the life of site or lease mining permit provision, SL 2017-209 also enacted a new annual mining permit operating fee of $400 per mining permit number_ By statute, the initial payment of this annual $400 fee must be submitted to this office by December 31, 20W — see the attached Invoice to remit the initial annual fee payment by this deadline. Beginning in 2018, the $400 annual operating fee must be submitted by July 1 of each year with the required Annual Reclamation Report as required by GS §74-55. Failure to submit the fee by the required deadline will result in a $50/month late fee and could result in the denial of future permit actions and/or revocation of your mining permit Lastly, pursuant to GS §74-54, the cap on reclamation bonds has been raised from $500,000 to $1 million. Any adjustments needed in existing bonds will be initiated by this office or addressed during your next requested permit action unless you contact this office with a written request to have your bond reevaluated. The issuance of a mining permit and/or any modification to it does not supersede local zoning regulations. The responsibility of compliance with any applicable zoning regulations remains with you. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter_ If you have any questions on the above, please contact Ms. Judy Wehner, Assistant State Mining Specialist, or me at (919) 707-9220.

D = Distance from the blast site to the nearest inhabited building not owned or leased by the mine operator (feet). Ds = Scaled distance factor. V = Peak Particle Velocity (inches per second). The peak particle velocity of any component shall not exceed 1.0 inch per second, for the purposes of this Section. C. Air blast With Monitoring: Air blast overpressure resulting from surface blasting shall not exceed 129 decibels linear (dBL) as measured at the immediate location of any regularly occupied building not owned or leased by the operator outside of the permitted area such as a dwelling house, church, school, or public, commercial or institutional building, unless an alternate level based on the sensitivity of the seismograph microphone as specified below is being used: Lower Frequency Limit of Max Level, Measuring System, in Hz in dBL 0.1 Hz or lower -flat response 134 peak 2.0 Hz or lower -flat response 133 peak 6.0 Hz or lower -flat response 129 peak D. Air blast Without Monitoring: In the event of seismograph malfunction or other condition which prevents monitoring, blasting shall be conducted in accordance with the following formulas: U = 82 (DIWO")-l.2 To convert U (psi) to P (dBL): Page 8 P = 20 x log (U/2.9x10-9) Confined Air blast/Overpressure (dBL) for quarry situation: A=P-35 U = Unconfined air overpressure (pounds per square inch). W = Maximum charge weight of explosives per delay period of 8.0 milliseconds or more (pounds)., D = Distance from the blast site to the nearest inhabited building not owned or leased by the mine operator (feet). P = Unconfined air overpressure (decibels). A = Air blast or air overpressure for typical quarry situations (decibels). The air blast/overpressure shall not exceed 129 decibels, for the purposes of this Section. E. Record Keeping: The operator shall maintain records on each individual blast describing: the total number of holes; pattern of holes and delay of intervals; depth and size of holes; type and total pounds of explosives; maximum pounds per delay interval; amount of stemming and burden for each hole; blast location; distance from blast to closest offsite regularly occupied structure; and weather conditions at the time of the blast. Records shall be maintained at the permittee's mine office and copies shall be provided to the Department upon request. F. Excessive _Ground Vibration/Air blast Reporting: If ground vibration or Air blast limits are exceeded, the operator will immediately report the event with causes and corrective actions to the Department. Use of explosives at the blast site that produced the excessive reading shall cease until corrective actions approved by the Department are taken. However, blasting may occur in other approved areas within the permitted boundary. Authorization to blast at the blast site may be granted at the time of the verbal reporting of the high ground vibration or high air blast reading if the circumstances justify verbal approval. Failure to report will constitute a permit violation. G. Flyrock Prevention: The operator shall take all reasonable precautions to ensure that flyrock is not thrown beyond areas where the access is temporarily or permanently guarded by the operator. Failure to take corrective measures to prevent flyrock and repeated instances of flyrock shall be considered a violation of the Mining Permit. Page 9 H. Flyrock Reporting:: Should flyrock occur beyond the permitted and guarded areas, the operator shall immediately report the incident to the Department. Further use of explosives on the mine site shall be suspended until the following actions have been taken: 1. A thorough investigation as to the cause(s) of the incident shall be conducted. 2.

Harris, Mining Program Secretary Laird Quality Section FROM: Shari L. Bryant, Piedmont Region Coordinator Habitat Conservation Program DATE: 6 January 2014 SUBJECT: Mining Permit Renewal for Hanson Aggregates Southeast, LLC, Lexington Quarry — Permit No. 29-13, Davidson County, North Carolina. Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) have reviewed the subject permit application, Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Mining Act of 1971 (as amended, 1982) (G.S. 7446 through 74-68 15 NCAC 5). The applicant is requesting a renewal of their permit for mining metadiorite. The total permitted arcs is 158 acres. The applicant indicates groundwater will pass through a settling pond, and stormwater will be treated by sediment traps and basins prior to discharge. A 50-foot buffer will be maintained between wetlands and natural watercourses. The reclamation plan includes allowing the excavation to fill with water, and grading and rc-vegetating according to the re -vegetation plan. An unnamed tributary to Abbotts Creek, a tributary to High Rock Lake in the YadlawRocDee River basin flows through the site. Should the permit be renewed, we offer the following recommendations to minimize impacts to aquatic and terrestrial wildlife resources. 1. Maintain a minimum 100-foot undisturbed native, forested buffer along perennial streams, and a minimum 50-foot buffer along intermittent streams and wetlands. Maintaining undisturbed, forested buffers along these areas will reduce impacts to aquatic and terrestrial wildlife resources, water quality, and aquatic habitat both within and downstream of the site. Whereas, a grassed buffer, particularly fescue, is a vegetated buffer but it will not provide the necessary and highly valuable functions as discussed for forested buffers. We request that sediment and erosion control structures be located outside of these buffers. 2. Water discharges from the site should be proportional to the size of the receiving stream so the hydrology of the stream is not altered, and all discharges should comply with NPDES permit requirements. In particular, turbidity of the discharge should be maintained at or below the permit requirement, High water discharge rates and turbidity can negatively impact aquatic Mailing Address: Division of Inland Fisheries • 1721 Mail Service Center • Raleigh, NC 27699-1721 Telephone: (919) 707-0220 • Fax: (919) 707-0028 Page 2 i 6 January 2014 Lexington Quarry Permit No. 29- l3 resources within and downstream of the site. Excessive silt and sediment loads can have numerous detrimental effects on aquatic resources including destruction of spawning habitat, suffocation of eggs, and clogging of gills of aquatic species. Consider using seed mixtures (e.g., native warm season grasses) that are beneficial to wildlife in the reclamation plan. An exact seeding mixture would need t6 take into account soil types, moisture, pH, and degree of slope of areas to be stabilized. In addition, for relatively shallow sediment basin reclamation, we recommend these areas be reclaimed as wetlands where practicable. We refer the applicant to Rupert Medford, District Wildlife Biologist, at (910) 975- 0577 or ru ert.medford rr ncwildlife.or for additional information and ideas on reclamation for wildlife.

Describe in detail the sequence of events for the development and operation of the mine and r-elerence the sequence to the mare map(s). Attach additional sheets as needed. Please see the previously approved "Detailed Mining Sequence" at tlhe back of this mine penult application. The sequence of the mine lhas not changed since the previous submittal. 2. Describe specific erosion control measures to be installed prior to land disturbing activities and during mining to prevent offslte sedimentation (include specific plans for sediment and erosion cowrol,for mine el-cavation(v), waste piles, accesslinine roads and process areas), and give a detailed sequence of installation and schedule for maintenance of the measures. Locale and label all sediment and erosion control measures on the mine map(s) and provide typical ei-oss-sect oiislcorrsti'uctiori details of cacti measure. Engineering designs and calculations shall be required when needed to justify the adequacy of any proposed measures. During the life of the quarry, any cleared land not being used in the mining operation will be seeded for pasture. Within the affected area of the mine site, a series ofdiversion ditches (grass -lined or rip -rapped) will be constructed and maintained to channel all run-off water to settling ponds or sediment basins prior to its release into any stream. The sequence of control structure construction is stated in the "Detailed Mining Sequence" refcreneed above. This previously approved document can be found at the back of this application. This information has not changed since the last submittal. 3. a. Will the operation involve washing the material mined, recycling process water, or other waste water handling? Yes X No If yes, briefly describe all such processes including any chemicals to be used. The cruslicd stone production process requires water for washing the sized stone products at the wash screen to remove dust and fines for the eventual use in asphalt and ready mix concrete. The water is recycled through a closed circuit process water settling pond system. Wash water from the plant is collected and delivered to tile primary pond, where most of the fines arc removed by simply settling out of suspension. The water then flows to the secondary pond where settling of additional finer particles takes place. The secondary pond also serves as a fresh water pond, and the clean water is punhpcd back to the plant for re -use in the stone washing process. Due to loss to evaporation from the ponds and loss into the stone products, the water balance is periodically restored by supplementing with groundwater pumped from the quarry as part of the dewatcring process. Water is also used for (lust control at the facility. Water is used at the processing plants by introduction through sprays at crushers and at conveyor transfer points to control dust emissions. It is also used in the water truck to control dust emanating from (haul roads, stockpiles, and the shot rock pile in the pit. Water used in dust suppression is usually pulled either from the quarry dewatcring or fi-om the secondary settling/fresh water pond. At the present time, no chemicals are planned in any of these processes; however, It may be necessary to use DWQ approved flocculants in the recycle system to help achieve a cleaner source of water for the plant washing and dust control. It may also become necessary to use chemicals such as calcium chloride or organic surfactants on the haul roads and crusting agents on the stone product stockpiles. b. Will the operation involve discharging fresh or waste water from the mine or plant as a point discharge to the waters ofthe State? Yes X No If yes, briefly describe the mature of the discharge and locate all proposed discharge points (along with their method of slabilization) on your urine limp(,). Water discharged will consist of small amounts of localized ground water. encountered during pit excavation and stormwater run-off. Water from pit dewatcring requires only minimal treatment at times to make it acceptable for discharging. To insure high quality discharge at all times, it will pass through a scttling pond prior discharging. Storinwater will be suitable treated using BMPs such as sediment traps and basins prior discharge. 0 o We currently may operate under the NPDES COC No. NCG020204 General Permit that covers the discharge of excess groundwater fi-om the quarry dewatering process, as well as any excess water fi-oin our closed circuit settling pond system. The discharge water passes through a separate settling pond prior to being discharged. The NPDES Permit also covers stormwater front the mine sites through multiple point source discharge points. c. Will any ]fart of the proposed mine excavation(s) extend below the water table? Yes X No . If yes, do you intend to dewater the excavation(s)? Yes X No if yes, what impact, if any, will mine dewatering have on neighboring wells? Estimated withdrawal rate in gallons per day: Locate all existing wells as the mire map(s) that lie within 500 feet of the proposed excavation area. Provide data to support any conclusions or statements made, including any monitoring well data, well construction data and current water withdrawal rates Indicate whether the proposed mine locale is served by a public water system or private wells. From analysis of the core retrieved from exploratory drilling, the metadiorite appears to have very little primary permeability. The only means in which water may be transported will be through secondary permeability (i.e. joints, fractures, shears, etc.); however, from core analysis, RQD values are in the 85`%o to 95%, range below the weathered rock interface, and these joints and shears do not appear to be interconnected. The surfaces of the fractures and joints show very little evidence of mineralized coatings as a result of water transportation. Removal ofthe overburden has very little effcct oil shallow wells In the area since the pits, lor the most part, sit on a topographic high and very little recharge area for shallow wells will be disturbed. The overburden materials in the pit areas are silts, clays, and sand which inhibit groundwater migration. d. If you answered yes to any of the above questions, provide evidence that you have applied for Or obtained the appropriate water quality pennit(s) (i.e., non -discharge, NPDES, Stormwater, etc.) fi-om the Division of Water Quality, Water Quality Section. In addition, the applicant is required to register water use with the Division of Water Resources if the operation withdraws more than 100,000 gallons per day and needs a capacity use pernlit from the Division of Water Resources if the operation lies in a capacity use area and withdraws more than 100,000 gallons per day. The Lexington Quarry may operate under NPDES COC No. NCG020124 General Permit. Water withdrawals are reported annually by April I" to the Division of' Water Resources. 4. a. Will the operation involve crushing or any other air contaminant emissions? Yes X No If' yes, indicate evidence that you have applied for or obtained an air quality permit issued by the Division of Air Quality or local governing body. NC Air Permit No. 07417R07, issued by NCDENR DAQ, is In place for quarrying. A complete system of water sprays are in place at all crushers and conveyor transfer points to control particulate emissions from these sources. b. How will dust fi-om stockpiles, haul roads, etc., be controlled? A water truck would be used to wet the haul roads, muck piles, and stockpiles as needed to control fugitive emissions from these sources. 5. a. A buffer will be required between any mining activity and any mining permit boundary or right-of- way. It may be an unexcavated buffer (no excavation, but roadways, berms and erosion & sedimentation control measures may be installed within it), an undisturbed buffer (no disturbance withiii the buffer whatsoever), or a combination of the two, depending upon the site conditions. Note that all buffers must be located within the mining permit boundaries. How wide a buffer will be maintained between any mining activity and any mining permit boundary or right-of-way at this site? A minimum buffer of 25 feet is recommended, although a wider buffer -7- 0 • may be needed depending oil site conditions. Show all bllffel' locations c111d 1v1dtIT.S On the 1}r111L' mar)(v). It is anticipated that a minimum 50 foot undisturbed buffer will be maintained between any mining activity and existing property line or highway right of way. This site is completely wooded, and it is Hanson's intent to maintain as much of this natural area as possible in passive buffer area. This does not in any way inhibit Hanson's right to use the property outside the 50-foot Undisturbed Buffer Zone. Since the entire site is wooded, Hanson is making effortas to preserve the natural areas as much as possible. The buffer around the property lines will be maintained by trees instead Of visual berms to screen the operation from the neighbors. b. A minimum 50 foot wide undisturbed buffer will be required between any land disturbing activities within the mining permit boundaries and any natural watercourses and wetlands unless smaller undisturbed buffers can be justified. Depending on site conditions, a buffer wider than 50 feet may be needed. How wide an undisturbed buffer will be maintained between any land disturbing activities within the mining permit boundaries and any natural watercourses and wetlands at this site? Show all buffer locations and iviclihs oil the mine map(s). A 50' wide buffer will be maintained between all wetlands and natural watercourses located on the site. See attached maps. G. a. Describe methods to prevent landslide or slope instability adjacent to adjoining permit boundaries during mining. Minimum 2 horizontal to I vertical slopes or flatter for clayey material and 111irlilnUr1 3 horizontal to I vertical slopes or flatter for sandy material are generally required, unless technical justification can be provided to allow steeper slopes. To prevent landslides and/or slope failure adjacent to adjoining properties, cut slopes will be graded no steeper than 1-1/2 to 1, and fill slopes will be graded no steeper than 2: I, and proper compaction procedures will be utilized. All slopes will be stabilized by seeding as soon as possible after grading has been completed. Necessary erosion controls will be used to prevent slope failure by concentrated stormwater runoff. As previously stated in 5a, buffer zones ot'varying widths will be maintained in areas of existing vegetation, and no mining will occur within 50-feet of existing property lines. b. Provide a cross-section on the urine lnap(v) for all.Jill slopes (berms, wastepiles, overburclell disposal areas, etc.), clearly indicating the intended side slope gradient, installation ofany benches and/or slope drains (with szrpporling design iriforinalion) if needed, and the method of final stabilization. See attached mine plans for generalized locations. For more specific details, sec previously approved plans and details. c. In cxcavation(s) of unconsolidated (non -rock) materials, specify the angle of all cut slopes including specifications for benching and sloping. Cross-.sections.fol- all cut slopes must be provided oil the mine map(s).z The maximum slope within the pit excavations will be 1-1 /2 to I in unconsolidated overburden with a I5-foot wide bench every 35-feet and a 25-foot bench at the overburden / rock interface. d. In harclrock excavations, specify proposed bench widths and heights in feet. Provide cross -sections of the !nine excavation clearl), noting the angles of the cut slopes, widths of all Safely benches and mine benches, and the exI.)ected maximum depth of the excavation. • 0 The expected slope will be to I with a 15-11 bench every 35-ft of'vertical depth. This slope has been adequate throughout the history of other Hanson sites since the deposits are relatively uniform and do not have a tendency to slide. It is typical of our operations currently to leave a 15' wide safety bench for every 35' of vertical height. 7. Describe other methods to be taken during mining to prevent physical hazard to any neighboring dwelling house, public road, public, commercial or industrial building fi-om any mime excavation. Locale all such structures air the mine mcrp if they are within 300 feet of airy proposed excavation. To prevent any physical hazards to neighboring houses, no mining will be conducted within 800-feet ofany dwelling or building. Likewise, no mining activities will occur within 900-feet ofKimberly Drive or within 600-feet of Interstate 85. Prior to quarrying, a pre -blast survey will be conducted in and around neighboring homes to determine the pre-existing structural conditions of those dwellings. Once quarrying begins, all quarry blasts will be monitored with a seismograph to insure that peak particle velocities and over -pressures are within local, state, and federal guidelines. 8. Describe what kind of barricade will be used to prevent inadvertent public access along any high wall area and when it will be implemented. Vegetated earthen berms, appropriate fencing and adequate boulder barriers may be acceptable high wall barricades. A construction detail/cross-section and location of each type of barricade to be used must be indicated on the urine map(s). During the life of the quarry, barricades of either oversize rocks or concrete barriers will be used and relocated as the pit is being developed. Access to the properly itself is restricted by gates that are locked when the quarry is not in operation. These barricades will be established prior commencement of mining operations and during the stripping of the pit before the stripping depth exceeds 10 vertical feet. 9. Are acid producing minerals or soils present? Yes No X I -low will acid water pollution from the excavation, stockpiles and waste areas be controlled? Acid water is not expected, but mine dewatering analytical testing will tell us where are signs of acid water pollution. Hanson will treat as necessary to neutralize the water should tests warrant such treatment. 10. a. Describe specific plans (including a schedule of implementation) for screening the operation from public view such as maintaining or planting trees, bushes or otlier vegetation, building beans or other measures. Show fire location of all visual screening oil the mine maps) and provide cross -sections through all proposed berms or proposed spacing, sizes and species for Tree plantings, Since the entire site is is completely wooded with hilly terrain, no visual berms will be necessary. Hanson will maintain a well -screened vegetative buffer, which will keep the entire operation from public view. b. Could the operation have a significantly adverse effect on the purposes of a publicly owned park, forest or recreation area? If so, how will such effects (i.e., noise, visibility, etc.) be mitigated? There are no publicly owned parks, forest or recreation areas adjacent to the property. 11. Will explosives be used? Yes X No . If yes, specify the tyl)cs of explosive(s) and describe what precaution(s) will be used to prevent physical hazard to persons or neighboring property From flying rocks or excessive air blasts or ground vibrations. Depending on the mire's location to nearby structures, more detailed technical information may be required on the blasting program (such as a third - party blasting study). Locate the nearest of . fvite occupied swucture(s) to the proposed excctvcrtiolz(v) on the urine map and indicate its approximate distance to 1he proposed excavation. IM! 0 0 Ensign 131ckiord or comparable nonel blast initiation systern is used to inadvertent blast initiation especially during possible thunderstorms. An electronic initiation system may be substituted for the novel system if it is deemed a better overall systern. Weather conditions are monitored continuously before, during, and aflcr loading of each shot to insure that the shot will not be Initialed under adverse weather Conditions that might cause blast emissions to drift in an unacceptable direction or might prevent proper venting oftlie blast wave away from adjoining properties. ANFO premixed powder is used in dry holes. A cap -sensitive high explosive emulsion is used for wet holes and initiation of the ANFO. Since blasting Is an integral part of this operation, each blast is monitored with a seismograph to insure that peak particle velocities and peak over pressures are within the limits established by local, stale, and federal authorities. A recording of each blast will be made on magnetic tape and will be sent to a third party consultant for analysis using the Response Spectrum Velocity Profile (RSVP). Prior to any blasting on site for production purposes, a preblast survey of all structures within 1000-feet of the pit will be conducted, such as Vibra-Tech Engineers, Inc. During the survey, Vibra-"Tech will attempt to allay some of the public's concerns regarding present-day blasting technique. As an additional precaution, some preliminary seismic studies will be conducted on -site to cicternline the preferred direction of blasting and pit development to further lessen the possibility of' excessive peak particle velocities during the actual mining conditions. 12. Will fuel tanks, solvents, or other chemical reagents be stored on -site? Yes X No I f yes, desci-ibe these mate'i- als, how they will be slot-ed and method of containment in case of s13ill. Indicate the location(y) of all slot -age facilities on the mine map(S), Fuel tanks will be enclosed in an above -ground steel secondary containment. All other oils, greases, and fluids will also be stored in secondary containment. Used oil will be collected from equipment and picked up for off'site recycling by properly certified contractors. Empty oil and grease barrels will be returned to the supplies- or cleaned and placed into the metal scrap biil for offsite recycling. An approved dealer will handle any solvents. All employees are trained on a regular basis in the proper handling of petroleum products, managing and cleaning of spills, and proper disposal of rags, absorbent materials, and any contaminated soils. D. RECLAMATION PLAN 1. Describe your intended plan for the final reclamation and subsequent use of all affected lands and indicate the sequence and general methods to be used In reclaiming this land. This must include the method of reclamation of settling ponds and/or sediment control basins and the method ofrestoration or establishment of any permanent drainage channels to a condition minimizing erosion, siltation and other pollution. This iiifoi-malion must be illusti-algid on a i-eclamalion mal) and must coi-i"C'.Spoild directly with the iiifai-malion pi-ovided on the mine map(s). In addition, design biformatioll, including typical cross -sections, of any permanent channels to be constructed as part of the reclamation plan and the location(v) ofall permanent channels must be indicated on the i-eclamation map. Reclamation of disturbed area will be an integral part of the active quarrying operations. As areas are disturbed, re -vegetation will occur in accordance with the previously approved "Reclamation Plan". Please refer to the initial reclamation plan found on RP-1 ofthe submitted mine maps. The plant site, shop, and yard will be graded and re -vegetated according to the "Rc-vegetation Plan". The primary and secondary settling ponds will be filled in, graded, followed by seeding and mulching. The quarry pit itselfwill be allowed to fill with groundwater and rain water and can be used to provide water storage and recreation for the local area. -10- 0 0 2. Is an excavated or impounded body of water to be left as a part of the reclamation? Yes X No If yes, illustrate the location of the body(5) of ivater on the reclamation map and provide a scaled cross -sections) through the proposed body(() of water. The minimum water depth must beat least 4 feet, measured from the normal low water table elevation, unless information is provided to indicate that a more shallow water body will be productive and beneficial at this site. Will the body(s) of water be stocked with fish? Yes No X . If yes, specify species. it is Hanson's intent to convert the quarry into a fresh water lake upon cessation of mining activities. Although the body of water will not be stocked with fish, it is anticipated that a fish population will develop within a few years due to natural process offish egg transportation. A large percentage of the mining area will be left as impounded water. In sonic areas, overburden will be backfilled to an elevation several feet above the water table, and seeded according to schedule. See attached drawings for specific details and cross sections. 3. Describe provisions for safety to persons and to adjoining property in all completed excavations in rock including what kind of permanent barricade will be Icft. Acceptable permanent barricades are appropriate fencing, large boulders placed end -to -end, etc. Construction details and locations of all permanent barricades must be shown on the reclamation mat). As a safety precaution, a 15-toot wide safety bench will be left for each 35-feet of bench height in all final rock slopes. Additionally, a permanent fence will be erected around the completed quarries to prevent unauthorized entry, and danger signs will be posted at regular intervals along the fence to warn folks of the open pits. 4. Indicate the method(s) of reclamation of. overburden, refuse, spoil banks or other such on -site mine waste areas, Including specifications for benching and sloping. l{tttal cross -sections acid locations forstich ai"cas must be provided on the reclamation map. As overburden is placed in designated areas, it is spread and compacted by dozer and haul units. Slopes in waste areas will be graded 2:1 or flatter and vegetated as soon as possible to prevent erosion. Erosion control measures and runoll' conveyances will be established as the wastepile develops and then maintained throughout the process until final reclamation is achieved. Drainage on top of the waste areas will be established to prevent pooling and stagnation of' water and to control runoff. Final reclamation of waste areas will include final top and slope dressing as required followed by seeding in accordance with the attached re -vegetation plan. Please see attached drawings for specific detail. 5. a. Describe reclamation of processing facilities, stockpile areas, and on -site roadways. Reclamation in these areas will occur as follows. First, the product stockpiles will be sold down. Then the processing plants will be dismantled and removed from the site. Any remaining piles, waste piles, and areas graded for plant layout and operation (including ramps to the primary stations) will be graded 2:1 maximum slope but generally 3:1 or flatter. Finally, these areas will be scarified and seeded according to the rc-vegetation plan. Any site access roads not utilized in the end use development plan will be treated in the same manner. Any erosion control structures in these areas to be incorporated into the end use development of the site will be cleaned out and Icft in good working condition. b. Will any on -site roadways be left as part of the reclamation? Yes X No Ifyes, identify such roadways on the reclamation !flap and provide details on permanent ditch line staPization. Main paved roads into the existing stone processing area will remain for access and future development purposes. The road through the existing plant site to the former plant area will remain and will be graded, including side drainage ditches, and stabilized with rock. -11- ® 0 6. Describe the method of control of contaminants and disposal of scrap metal,junk machinery, cables, or other such waste products of mining. (Note definition of refuse in The Mining Act of 1971). No off -site #,yenerated waste shall be disposed of on the mine site without prior written approval from the NC Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Land Quality Section and either the Division of Waste Management (DWM) or local governing body. If a disposal permit has been issued by DWM for the site, a copy of said permit must be attached to this application. All temporary awl permanent refuse disposal areas must be clearly delineated onthe mine nrap(S) and reclamationmap, along with alis! of hems to be disposed in said areas, As previously approved, temporary scrap and used equipment storage areas have been developed at this site. The scrap material and used equipment which accumulate as a result of mining and processing activities are stored in these areas until sold to an independent recycling contractor. No process waste products other than inert lines are disposed of at this site. A scrap bin is maintained on site for disposal by recycling of small metal scrap. Tires arc recycled through the various tire suppliers. Describe your plan for revegetation or other surface treatment of the affected areas. This plan must include recommendations for year-round seedinl;, including the time of seeding and the amount and type of' seed, fertilizer, lime and mulch per acre. The recommendations must include general seeding instructions for permanent revegetation and, if necessary, temporary revegetation. Rcvegetation utilizing only tree plantings is not acceptable.

However, active mining has never occurred at this site and the erosion and sediment control measures originally designed and approved have not been installed. As part of the 2013 renewal application for the mine permit, the sediment control devices, particularly the sediment basins have been re -sized per the current accepted design standards. The following calculations are for the sediment basins at this proposed facility. As part of this revision, the sediment basins all now include a skimmer dewatering device and the larger basins have been designed with a riser/barrel principal spillway. In addition, the revised details for this facility now depict a rock baffle within the sediment basins to aid in longevity and clean out activities.

Blasting The operator shall monitor each blast with a seismograph located at a distance no farther than the closest off site regularly occupied structure not owned or leased by the operator. A seismographic record including peak particle_ velocity, air overpressure, and vibration frequency levels shall be kept for each blast (except as provided under Sections B. and D. of this permit). The following blasting conditions shall be observed by the mine operator to prevent hazard to persons and adjacent property from surface blasting: A. Ground Vibration With Monitoring: In all blasting operation's, the maximum peak particle velocity of any component of ground motion shall not exceed Figure 1 (below) at the immediate location of any regularly occupied building outside of the permitted area such as a dwelling house, church, school, or public, commercial or institutional building. Page 7 B. Ground Vibration Without Monitoring: In the event of seismograph malfunction or other condition which prevents monitoring, blasting shall be conducted in accordance with the following formulas: W = (D/Ds)z Ds = D W is V = 160(Ds)-1.6 W = Maximum charge weight of explosives per delay period of 8.0 milliseconds or more (pounds). D = Distance from the blast site to the nearest inhabited building not owned or leased by the mine operator (feet). m Ds = Scaled distance factor. V = Peak Particle Velocity (inches per second). The peak particle velocity of any component shall not exceed 1.0 inch per second, for the purposes of this Section. C. Air blast With Monitoring: Air blast overpressure resulting from surface blasting shall not exceed 129 decibels linear (dBL) as measured at the immediate location of any regularly occupied building not owned or leased by the operator outside of the permitted area such as a dwelling house, church, school, or public, commercial or institutional building, unless an alternate level based on the sensitivity of the seismograph microphone as specified below is being used: Lower Frequency Limit of Max Level, Measuring System, in Hz in dBL 0.1 Hz or lower -flat response 134 peak 2.0 Hz or lower -flat response 133 peak 6.0 Hz or lower -flat response 129 peak D. Air blast Without Monitorinq: In the event of seismograph malfunction or other condition which prevents monitoring, blasting shall be conducted in accordance with the following formulas: To convert U (psi) to P (dBL): U = 82 (D/Wo.33)-i.x P = 20 x log (U/2.9x10-9) Confined Air blast/Overpressure (dBL) for quarry situation: A=P-35 U = Unconfined air overpressure (pounds per square inch). W = Maximum charge weight of explosives per delay period of 8.0 milliseconds or more (pounds). D = Distance from the blast site to the nearest inhabited building not owned or leased by the mine operator (feet). P = Unconfined air overpressure (decibels). A = Air blast or air overpressure for typical quarry situations (decibels). Page 9 The air blast/overpressure shall not exceed 129 decibels, for the purposes of this Section. E. Record Keeping: The operator shall maintain records on each individual blast describing: the total number of holes; pattern of holes and delay of intervals; depth and size of holes; type and total pounds of explosives; maximum pounds per delay interval; amount of stemming and burden for each hole; blast location; distance from blast to closest offsite regularly occupied structure; and weather conditions at the time of the blast. Records shall be maintained at the permittee's mine office and copies shall be provided to the Department upon request. F. Excessive Ground Vibration/Air blast Reporting: If ground vibration or Air blast limits are exceeded, the operator will immediately report the event with causes and corrective actions to the Department. Use of explosives at the blast site that produced the excessive reading shall cease until corrective actions approved by the Department are taken. However, blasting may occur in other approved areas within the permitted boundary. Authorization to blast at the blast site may be granted at the time of the verbal reporting of the high ground vibration or high air blast reading if the circumstances justify verbal approval. Failure to report will constitute a permit violation. G. Fyyrock Prevention: The operator shall take all reasonable precautions to ensure that flyrock is not thrown beyond areas where the access is temporarily or permanently guarded by the operator. Failure to take corrective measures to prevent flyrock and repeated instances of flyrock shall be considered a violation of the Mining Permit. H. Fl rock Reporting: Should flyrock occur beyond the permitted and guarded areas, the operator shall immediately report the incident to the Department. Further use of explosives on the mine site shall be suspended until the following actions have been taken: A thorough investigation as to the cause(s) of the incident shall be conducted. 2. A report detailing the investigation shall be provided to the Department within 10 days of the incident. The report shall, at a minimum, document the cause(s) of the incident along with technical and management actions that will be taken to prevent further incidents. The report shall meet with the approval of the Department before blasting may resume at the mine site. Page 10 Studies: The operator shall provide to the Department a copy of the findings of any seismic studies conducted at the mine site in response to an exceedence of a level allowed by these blasting conditions. The operator shall make every reasonable effort to incorporate the studies' recommendations into the production blasting program. J. Notice: The operator shall, when requested by the Department, give 24-hour advance notice to the Land Quality Section Regional Office prior to any blast during a period for which notice is requested. 10. High Wall Barrier A.

Sincerely, Kristin Moyle Assistant State Mining Specialist Land Quality Section Attachment cc: Mr. Matt Gantt, P.E. April 4, 2003 MEMORANDUM TO: Land Quality Section Staff FROM: Tracy Davis, RA State Mining Specialist RE: Trapping Efficiency Requirements for Temporary Sediment Traps, Sediment Basins and Rock Dams on Permitted Mine Sites As you are aware, both the North Carolina Surface Mining Manual and the North Carolina Erosion and Sediment Control Planning and Design Manual have always recommended that temporarysediment traps, sediment basins and rock dams be designed to address three main parameters (see the erosion and sedimentation control design chapter of each manual for further information): Sediment Storage Capacity: This is the volume of sediment storage in the measure. It is based on 1,800 cubic feet per disturbed acre per year; 2) Spillway Capacity: This is the volume of water that must pass through the spillway section of the measure, based on the entire drainage area draining to the measure. For mine sites, if the measure is temporary (up to one year life), the spillway capacity is based upon the 10 year-24 hour storm event. If the measure is ep rm�ent (one year or more life), the spillway capacity is based upon the 25 year-24 hour storm event; and 3) Trapping Efficiency: This is the surface area that is needed to settle out fine particles in the water in the measure and is directly related to the surface area of the measure. It is based on the following equation: A = 0.01 Qre Where Q is the flow of water from the entire drainage area for the l0-year design storm and A is the surface area in acres. NOTE: if the measure's dimensions are set so that the length will be twice the width, then the 2 year design storm can be used to set the flow (Q) to be used to design for trapping efficiency surface area.

Edwards, Mining Program Secretary td Quality Sectio ow-4�—VZPama-� FROM: aniellc R. Ponder, Piedmont Region Coordinator Habitat Conscivatum Program DATE: 20 November 2002 SUBJECT: Mining Permit Renewal Request for Hanson Aggregates Southeast. Inc., Lexington Quarry - Permit No. 29-13, Davidson County, North Carolina Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NC)AIRC) have reviewed the subject permit renewal. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Mining Act of 1971 (as amended, 1982) (G.S. 74-76 through 74-68 15 NCAC 5). The applicant is requesting a renewal of its current minine permit to mine metadicinic (granite). The total permitted acreage is 158 acres. The mining application lists the mining method as "hydraulic dredge" and "shovel and truck'. However, from our discussions with the Lang Quality office, the method should only be listed as "shovel and truck". Tributaries of Abbotts Creek drain the site. Abbotts Creek flows into High Rock Lake and is in the Yadkin-Pec Dec River basin. High Rock Lake, which has a large recreational fishery and is frequently used for swimming and skiing, has a history of water quality problems. The North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) classifies High Rock Lake as eutrophic and has documented numerous incidents of water quality standards being exceeded (NCDWQ 1998). The Abbotts Creek arm of the lake. in particular, is subject to nuisance alga blooms, NCDWQ has determined High Rock Lake to be `support -threatened' due to nutrient loading and the elevated percent oxygen saturation, which may impact the fishery resources of the lake. NCWRC biologists found an increase in the number of diseased fish in High Rock Lake during a 1999 spring electrofishing sample. During the spring spawn, white bass migrate up Abbotts Creek from High Rock Lake almost to US 29 in Rich Fork Creek. NCDWQ indicates that water quality and biotic integrity of Abbotts Creek and its tributaries near the project area are affected adversely by non - point sources, such as urban runoff, agricultural runoff., and sediment from construction and surface mining sites, as well as point source discharges (NCDWQ 1998). The applicant has indicated that stream and wetland buffer widths are delineated on the plans. However. it is difficult to actually determine where this information occurs from the materials provided.

In order to reduce stream impacts, while retaining some measure of wildlife habitat, we -recommend a minimum 10046ot undisturbed, native. forested buffer along perennial streams, and a60-foot--buffer along. intermittent streams and wetlands for the present operation and any future expansions. Adequate riparian habitat and watershed protection is essential to the continued survival of rare aquatic species. Maintaining undisturbed, forested buffers along these areas will reduce impacts to fish and wildlife resources, water quality, aquatic habitat both within and downstream of the project area, and Help prevent the extirpation of endangered and threatened species. In addition, these buffers will provide an adequate travel corridor for wildlife species. ❑v'hereas, a grassed buffer, particularly fescue, is a vegetated buffer but will not provide the necessary and highly valuable functions as discussed for forested buffers. We request that sediment and control measures be located outside of these buffers. 2. Water -di scharges from the project site should -be proportional t6the sue of the receiving stream so that the hydrology of the stream is not altered, and all discharges_ should comply witENPDES-permit requirements. In particular, turbidity of the discharge should be maintained at or below the permit requirement. High water discharge rates and turbidity can negatively impact aquatic and fisheries resources within and downstream of the project area.. Excessive silt and sediment loads can have nutnerous detrimental effects on aquatic resources including destruction of spawning habitat. suffocation of eggs, and clogging of gills of aquatic species. 3. We encourage the applicant to consider using seed mixtures that are beneficial to wildlife in their reclamation plan; such as natives warm season grasses,. An exact seeding mixture would need to take into account soil types, moisture, -pH, and degree of slope of areas to be stabilized. Additionally, for relatively shallow sediment basin reclamation, we recommend these areas be reclaimed as wetlands where practicable. We refer the applicant to George Strader, District Wildlife Biologist at (919) 471-1743 for additional information and ideas on reclamation for wildlife. Thank you for the opportunity to review and comim-nt on this application. if we can be of further assistance, please contact our office at (919) 528-9986. cc: Steve Howilex, .Applicant Tracy Rice, US1"WS V/ J V/ 11 MINING PERMIT APPLICATION REVIEW FORM for�`�rv�ri DIVISION OF AIR QUALITY 1 A 2002 yr .

PROTECTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES i 1. Describe in detail the sequence of events for the development and operation of the mine and reference the sequence to the mine map(s): Attach additional sheets as needed. See previously approved plans and associated Construction Sequence. The sequence of development of the mine has not changed since the previous submittal. 2. Describe specific erosion control measures to be installed prior to land disturbing activities and Burin mining to prevent offsite sedimentation (include specific plans for sediment and erosion control for mine excavation(s), waste piles, access/mine roads and process areas), and give a detailed sequence of installation and schedule for maintenance of the measures. Locate and label all sediment and erosion control measures on the mine map(s) and provide typical cross-sections/construction details of each measure. During the life of the quarry, any cleared land not being used in the mining operation will be seeded for pasture Within the affected area of the mine site, a series of diversion ditches (grass -lined or rip rapped) will be constructed and maintained to channel all runoff water to settling ponds or sediment basins prior to its release into any stream. The sequence of construction and installation of the permanent erosion control features is included with this application. See previously approved plans and supporting calculations for specific details. This information has not changed since the last submittal. 1 3. a. Will the operation involve washing the material mined, recycling process water, or other waste water handling? Yes X No If yes, briefly describe all such processes including any chemicals to be used. y The crushed stone facility requires the use of water to produce clean stone. The water is pumped from the secondary settling pond to the plant. Through the use of spray bars and screens the raw material is washed and sized. This water will also be used at all transfer points throughout the plant to allay dust. Once used, the water is collected in a series of ditches and pipes and directed back to the primary settling pond. Once the water has flowed through the primary and secondary settling ponds, most of the silt -sized particles of material will have settled out, and the water is ready to be reused in the plant. Due to evaporation and loss through material sales, it is necessary to periodically supplement the closed circuit system with water from the retention pond. b. Will the operation involve discharging fresh or waste water from the mine or plant as a point discharge to the waters of the State? Yes X No . If yes, briefly describe the nature of the discharge and locate all proposed discharge points (along with their method of stabilization) on your mine map(s). i Water discharged will consist of small amounts of localized ground water encountered during pit excavation and storm water runoff. Water from pit dewatering requires only minimal treatment at times to make it acceptable for discharge. To insure a high quality discharge at all times, it will be passed through a settling pond prior to discharge. Storm water will be suitable treated using BMP's such as sediment traps and basins prior to discharge. I c. Will any part of the proposed mine excavation(s) extend below the water table? Yes X No . if yes, do you intend to dewater the excavation(s)? Yes X No . If yes, what impact, if any, will mine dewatering have on neighboring wells? Estimated withdrawal rate in gallons per day: . Locate all existing wells on the mine map(s) that lie within 500 feet of the proposed excavation area. Provide data to support any conclusions or statements made, including any monitoring well data, well construction data and current water withdrawal rates. Indicate whether the proposed mine locale is served by a public water system or private wells. From analysis of the core retrieved from the exploratory drilling, the metadiorite will to have very little primary permeability. The only means in which water may be transported will be through secondary • • -- r .l a � 4 i It mI — a c rr. a e tI- tI tow It It —41 LI It _ 7 II It tI r. ti C It I permeability (i.e. joints, fractures, shears, etc.); however, from core analysis, RQD values are in the 85% to 95% range, below the weathered rock interface, and these joints and fractures do not appear to be interconnected. The surfaces of the fractures and joints show very little evidence of mineralized coatings as a result of water transportation. Removal of the overburden has very little effect on shallow wells in the area since the pit for the most part sits on a topographic high and very little of the recharge area for shallow wells will be disturbed. The overburden materials in the pit area are silts, clays, and sand, which would inhibit groundwater migration. I d. If you answered yes to any of the above questions, provide evidence that you have applied for or obtained the appropriate water quality permit(s) (i.e., non -discharge, NPDES, Stormwater, etc.) from the Division of Water Quality, Water Quality Section. In addition, the applicant is required to register water use with the Division of Water Resources if the operation withdraws more than 100,000 gallons per day ond. needs a capacity use permit from the Division of Water Resources if the operation lies in a capacity use area and withdraws more than 100,000 gallons per day. This site has been issued an NPDES General Permit to discharge pit water, process water and stormwater. Permit # NCG020204 4. a. Will the operation involve crushing or any other air contaminant emissions? Yes X No I . If yes, indicate evidence that you have applied for or obtained an air quality permit issued by the Division of Air Quality or local governing body. Lexington Quarry has been issued an Air Quality Permit by the Division of Air Quality. Permit # 7417R E b. How will dust from stockpiles, haul roads, etc., be controlled? A wet suppression system for the plant, as filed with the Division of Air Quality, will be the primary control for fugitive dust in the plant area. Spray bars and nozzles at transfer points in the processing plant allay any particle emissions in the plant and stockpile areas. Also, most aggregate products will be washed stone gradations with little or no fines. Haul roads and site access roads are also monitored for fugitive dust. As the need arises, a water wagon will spray water along these routes to further inhibit any dust from becoming airborne. a. A buffer will be required between any mining activity and any mining permit boundary or right-of- way. It may be an unexcavated buffer (no excavation, but roadways, berms and erosion & sedunentation control measures may be installed within it), an undisturbed buffer (no disturbance within the buffer whatsoever), or a combination of the two, depending upon the site conditions. Note that all buffers must be, located within the mining permit boundaries. How wide a buffer will$e maintained between any mining activity and any mining permit boundary or right-of-way at this site? A minimum buffer of 25 feet is recommended, although a wider buffer may be needed depending on site conditions. Show all buffer locations and widths on the mine map(s). It is anticipated that no mining or land disturbing activities will occur within 50' undisturbed buffer zones around the property lines. This site is completely wooded and it is Hanson's intent to maintain as much of this wooded natural area as possible in passive buffer area. This is not to in any way inhibit Hanson's right to use the property outside of the 50' Undisturbed Buffer Zone. Since the entire site is wooded, Hanson is malting efforts to preserve the natural areas as much as possible. The buffer around the property lies will be maintained by trees instead of visual barrier berms to screen the operation from our neighbors. ; b. A minimum 50 foot wide undisturbed buffer will be required between any land disturbing activities within the mining permit boundaries and any natural watercourses and wetlands unless smaller undisturbed buffers can be justified. Depending on site conditions, a buffer wider than 50 feet may r 1.... ... st3t :f lf.:l.J- Pu.f. dJv r:$r• r1 .")p1' {!.:dr+ s :aiJ.}I .d:,i: r! rj,.J,'i i.L :'fi .90'rL-{.;'_•.It -.•t '. 'i ✓.

How wide an undisturbed buffer will be maintained between any land disturbing activities within the mining permit boundaries and any natural watercourses and wetlands at this site? Show all buffer locations and widths vn the mine map(s). All water courses, impoundments and associated buffers are delineated on the plans. See attached plans for specific information regarding buffers to be maintained. 6. a. Describe methods to prevent landslide or slope instability adjacent to adjoining permit boundaries during mining. Minimum 2 horizontal to 1 vertical slopes or flatter for clayey material and minimum 3 horizontal to 1 vertical slopes or flatter for sandy material are generally required, unless technical justification can be provided to allow steeper slopes. In order to prevent landslides and/or slope failure adjacent to adjoining properties, cut slopes will be graded on slopes no steeper than 1 '/:: 1 and fill slopes no steeper than 2:1. In addition, all slopes have been seeded as soon as possible after grading has been completed and will be treated in accordance with the revegetation plan contained herein. Furthermore, as previously stated in 5a, buffer zones of varying widths will be maintained in areas of existing vegetation, and no mining shall occur within 50 feet of existing property lines. b. Provide a cross-section on the mine map(s) for all fill slopes (berms, wastepiles, overburden disposal areas, etc.), clearly indicating the intended side slope gradient, installation of any benches andlor slope drains (with supporting design information) if needed, and the method of fi al stabilization. See attached mine plans for generalized locations. For more specific details see previously approved plans and details. c. In excavation(s) of unconsolidated (non -rock) materials, specify the angle of all cut slopes including specifications for benching and sloping. Cross -sections for all cut slopes must be provided on the mine map(s). The maximum slope within the pit excavation will 1'f : 1 in unconsolidated overburden with a 15 foot wide bench every 35 feet and a 25 foot bench at the overburden / rock interface d_. In hard rock excavations, specify proposed bench widths and heights in feet. Provide cross -sections of the mine excavation clearly noting the angles of the cut slopes, widths of all safety benches and mine benches, and the expected maximum depth of the excavation. The expected slope will be 1'/4 : 1 which is used at many other operations and has proved to be successful. Slopes will have a 15 foot wide bench every 40 feet of depth. See attached mine plans for generalized locations. For more specific details see previously approved plans and details. 1 7. Describe other methods to be taken during mining to prevent physical hazard to any neighboring dwelling house, public road, public, commercial or industrial building from any mine excavation. Locate all such structures on the mine map if they are within 300 feet of any proposed excavation. To prevent any physical hazard to neighboring houses, no mining will be conducted within 800 feet of any dwelling or building. Likewise, no mining activities will occur within 900 feet of Kimberly Drive or within 1600 feet of interstate 85. Prior to quarrying, a preblast survey'wi11 be conducted in and around neighboring homes to determine the pre -exiting structural condition of those dwellings.

Describe what kind of barricade will be used to prevent inadvertent public access along any high wall area and when it will be implemented. Vegetated earthen berms, appropriate fencing and adequate boulder barriers may be acceptable high wall barricades. A construction detail/cross-section and location of each type of barricade to be used must be indicated on the mine map(s). During the life of the quarry, barricades of either oversize rock or concrete barriers will be used and relocated as the pit is developed. Access to the property will be restricted by gates that are locked when the quarry is not in operation. These barricades will be established prior to commencement of mining operations and during the stripping of the pit before the stripping depth exceeds ten vertical feet. 9. Are acid producing minerals or soils present? Yes No X How will acid water pollution from the excavation, stockpiles and waste areas be controlled? 10. a. Describe specific plans (including a schedule of implementation) for screening the operation from public view such as maintaining or planting trees, bushes or other vegetation, building berms or other measures. Show the location of all visual screening on the mine map(s) and provide cross -sections through all proposed berms or proposed spacing, sizes and species for tree plantings. Since the site is completely wooded with hilly terrain, no visual barrier berms will be necessary. We will maintain a well -screened vegetative buffer, which will keep the entire operation from public view. b. Could the operation have a significantly adverse effect on the purposes of a publicly owned park, forest or recreation area? if so, how will such effects (i.e., noise, visibility, etc.) be mitigated? No publicly owned park, forest or recreation areas adjoin the property. 11. Will explosives be used? Yes X No . If yes, specify the types of explosive(s) and describe what precaution(s) will be used to prevent physical hazard to persons or neighboring property from flying rocks or excessive air blasts or ground vibrations. Depending on the mine's location to nearby structures, more detailed technical information may be required on the blasting program (such as a third - party blasting study). Locate the nearest offsite occupied structure(s) to the proposed excavation(v) on the mine map and indicate its approximate distance to the proposed excavation. I.Ensign Bickford or comparable nonel initiation system 2. Anfo premixed powder for dry hole shots. 3. A cap -sensitive high explosive emulsion for wet holes and initiation of Anfo. 4. An electronic initiation system may be substituted for the nonel system if it is deemed a better overall system. Since blasting is an integral part of this operation, each blast will be monitored with a seismograph to ensure that peak particle velocities and peak overpressures are within limits established by local, state and federal authorities. A recording of each blast will be made on magnetic tape and will be sent to a third party consultant for analysis using the Response Spectrum Velocity Profile (RSVP) technique. Prior to any blasting on site for production purposes, a preblast survey of all structures within 1,000 feet of the pit will be conducted by a third party consultant, such as Vibra-Tech Engineers, Inc. During this survey Vibra-Tech will attempt to allay some of the public's concerns regarding present-day blasting techniques. As an additional precaution, some preliminary seismic studies will be conducted onsite to determine the preferred direction of blasting and pit development to further lessen the possibility of excessive peak particle velocities during the actual mining conditions. A brochure from Vibra-Tech Engineers, Inc., detailing their 0 0 0 proposal, is included as supplemental information to this permit application. 12. Will fuel tanks, solvents, or other chemical reagents be stored on -site? Yes X No If yes, describe these materials, how they will be stored and method of containment in case of spill. Indicate the location(s) of all storage facilities on the mine map(s). Onsite storage of gasoline, diesel fuel, and various oils and greases is necessary to facilitate the operation of various types of equipment needed to produce crushed stone. The bulk storage tanks for fuel, gasoline, and oil will be in approved above ground storage tanks surrounded by a berm that would contain any leakage or spillage. Grease and other oils not required in bulk quantities are stored in Si -gallon metal drums generally under cover on concrete slabs or at the oil separator pit. All empty grease and specialty oil drums are returned to the manufacturer at frequent intervals to alleviate the need for a disposal area. D. RECLAMATION PLAN 1. Describe your intended plan for the final reclamation and subsequent use of all affected lands and indicate the sequence and general methods to be used in reclaiming this land. This must include the method of reclamation of settling ponds and/or sediment control basins and the method of restoration or establishment of any permanent drainage channels to a condition minimizing erosion, siltation and other pollution. This information must be illustrated on a reclamation map and must correspond directly with the information provided on the mine map(s). In addition, design information, including typical cross -sections, of any permanent channels to be constructed as part of the reclamation plan and the location(s) of all permanent channels must be indicated on the reclamation map. Reclamation of disturbed area will be an integral part of the active quarrying operations. As areas are disturbed, revegetation will be in accordance with the Revegetation Plan. Please refer to the initial reclamation plan found in the reclamation section of the plan sheets. The plant site and shop yard will also be raded and revegetated according to the Revegetation Plan. The primary and secondary settling ponds wi, be filled in and treated in a like manner. The quarry pit itself will be allowed to fill with groundwater and rainwater and can be used to provide water storage and recreation for the local area. 7. Is an excavated or impounded body of water to be left as a part of the reclamation? Yes X No If yes, illustrate the location of the body(s) of water on the reclamation map and provide a scaled cross -sections) through the proposed body(s) of water. The minimum water depth must be at least 4 feet, measured from the normal low water table elevation, unless information is provided to indicate that a more shallow water body will be productive and beneficial at this site. Will the body(s) of water be stocked with fish? Yes No X If yes, specify species. Although the body of water will not be stocked with fish it is anticipated that a fish population will develop within a few years due to natural process of fish egg transportation. 3. Describe provisions for safety to persons and to adjoining property in all completed excavations in rock including what kind of permanent barricade will be left. Acceptable permanent barricades are appropriate fencing, large boulders placed end -to -end, etc. Construction details and locations of all permanent barricades must be shown on the reclamation map. As a safety precaution, a 15-foot wide safety bench will be leis for each 35 feet of bench height in all final rock slopes. Additionally, a permanent fence will be erected around the pit to prevent unauthorized entry. Danger signs will be placed at regular intervals around the pit perimeter to warn of open pit.

Indicate the method(s) of reclamation of overburden, refuse, spoil banks or other such on -site mine waste areas, including specifications for benching and sloping. Final cross -sections and locations for such areas must be provided on the reclamation map. As overburden is placed in designated areas, it is spread and compacted by dozer and hauling units. Slopes in waste area (s) (and all embankment areas) will be graded to 2:1 or flatter and revegetated as soon as possible to prevent erosion. Drainage on top of waste area (s) will be established to prevent pooling and stagnation of water, and to control stormwater runoff. Final reclamation of waste area (s) will include final top and slope dressing (if required) and revegetation according to the revegetation plan as contained herein. 5. a. Describe reclamation of processing facilities, stockpile areas, and on -site roadways. Reclamation in these areas will occur in two stages: first, the plant and stockpiles will be removed from the site, followed by the scarifying of these locations and revegetating according to the revegatation plan as contained herein. In addition, any site access roads not utilized in the end use development plan will be treated in the same manner. The erosion control structures in these areas will also be cleaned out and left in good working condition, since they will be incorporated into the end use development of the site. b. Will any on -site roadways be left as part of the reclamation? Yes No X . Ifyes, identify such roadways on the reclamation map andprovide details on permanent ditch line stabilization. 6. Describe the method of control of contaminants and disposal of scrap metal, junk machinery, cables, or other such waste products of mining. (Note definition of refuse in The Minim Act of 1971). No off -site enerated waste shall be disposed of on the mine site without Prior written approval from the NC apartment o nvironment and Natural Resources, Land Quality Section and either the Division of Waste Management (DWM) or local governing body. If a disposal permit was been issued by DWM for the site, a copy of said permit must be attached to this application. All temporary and permanent refuse disposal areas must be clearly delineated on the mine map(s) and reclamation map, along with a list of items to be disposed in said areas. In order to comply with the Davidson County Zoning Ordinance, fuel oil storage tanks will be placed above ground to prevent groundwater contamination. To insure against seepage from an accidental tank rupture, the tanks will be placed inside a concrete containment area. Wall height and the containment area will be designed in accordance with federal regulations to contain the maximum expected spill or tank failure. Alternatively, fuel oil will be stored in double -wall steel tanks to meet federal spill control regulations. Hanson will not dispose of any drill steel and bits, cable, and conveyor belting on site. Theses items along with used oil, batteries, tires and scrap metal will be recycled off site by private collection firms under contract to Hanson. • 'np,au'lsiqsr, n=eq Ce.pill ?:, l,6, ilsi :p: ,_ L: .uklua I. _'.Jana : s' m, ,a ji it i . ,:. ,..

Tear Company's Proposed Lexington Quarry Davidson County Recommendations: The staff of the Land Quality Section (LOS) has completed its review of the above referenced application and recommends that it be approved with certain conditions as provided for under G.S. 74-51. A draft permit document is attached for your review and consideration. Review Procedure: The staff of the Land Quality Section reviewed the permit application which was submitted on August 19, 1991 and all supplemental information filed subsequent to the initial application. Furthermore, the N. C. Department of Cultural Resources -Division of Archives and History, the Division of Environmental Management, DEHNR, and the staff of the N. C. Wildlife Resources Commission (WRC) were also afforded the opportunity to comment on the proposal. In addition to the governmental agency input noted above, a public hearing was held on the proposal on October 15, 1991 at the Davidson County Superior Courtroom in Lexington. A summary of the public comments was made by Ms. Patty Johnson, Hearing Officer. A copy of the summary was provided to you earlier under separate cover and a copy is on file with the Land Quality Section.

(2) "That the operation will have unduly adverse effects on wildlife or fresh water, estuarine, or marine fisheries;" A detailed erosion and sediment control plan adequately addresses stormwater runoff from disturbed areas - see Operating Condition No. 4. In a memorandum dated September 6, 1991 from the N. C. Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) to the Land Quality Section, NCWRC stated "the applicant appears to have designed the project with the protection of streams and wetlands in mind. We have no objections to the project as proposed." . (3) "That the operation will violate standards of air quality, surface water quality, or groundwater quality which have been promulgated by the Department of Natural Resources and Community Development;" The applicant applied for an air quality permit for the on -site processing facilities on August 19, 1991 and, after several revisions, the Air Quality Section will be completing its review shortly. In addition, a NPDES permit and Non -discharge permit were applied for on August 20, 1991. The NPDES permit (No. NC0081094) was issued on June 5, 1992 and expires September 30, 1993. The Non -discharge permit (No. WQ0005512) was issued June 15, 1992 and expires May 31, 1997. Operating Conditions Nos. 1 and 2 of the draft permit require, respectively, that the operation complies with state water and air quality regulations. Mr. Charles Gardner November 2, 1992 Page 3 The Groundwater Section (GS) was requested to review appropriate portions of the mining permit application, including the "Ground Water Survey and Evaluation In the Vicinity of the Nello L. Teer Company's Lexington Quarry, Davidson County, North Carolina" prepared by Atlantic Geotech Associates dated November 1991. The above report recommended the placement and monitoring of seven (7) observation wells around the perimeter of the quarry excavation to monitor any impact the quarry dewatering may have on water supplies in the vicinity of the operation. The G.S. concurred with the recommendations of the report and such recommendations have been covered by Operating Condition No. 5 of the draft permit. The LQS has no documentation of a similar type operation in a similar rock terrain ever causing a significant adverse impact on offsite wells. (4) "That the operation will constitute a substantial physical hazard to a neighboring dwelling house, a school, church, hospital, commercial or industrial building, public road or other public property;" Appropriate buffers are provided for in the site plans and referenced to in the draft permit. In addition, a detailed blasting report compiled by Vibra-tech Engineers, Inc. dated December 5, 1991 regarding a proposed monitoring program and projected vibration values for the site has been reviewed. The report, as well as a supplemental report dated July 27, 1992, addressed potential effects of blasting on the existing sanitary sewer line, City of Lexington's Waste Water Treatment Plant, and nearby residential areas. The reports indicate that blasting will not constitute a substantial physical hazard to nearby structures. The recommendations provided in the report have been incorporated into Operating Condition No. 8 of the draft permit. Similar conditions have been part of each mining permit issued for the operation of a crushed stone quarry in the State. (5) "That the operation will have a significantly adverse effect on the purposes of a publicly -owned park, forest or recreation area;" Mr. Charles Gardner November 2, 1992 Page 4 This is not applicable as there are no such areas in close proximity. (6) "That previous experience with similar operations indicates a substantial possibility that the operation will result in substantial deposits of sediment in stream beds or lakes, landslides, or acid water pollution;" A detailed sediment and erosion control plan has been developed for this site and should provide adequate protection to the surrounding environment. Specific buffer zones, safety benches, and cut/fill slopes have been incorporated into the draft permit to provide adequate protection against landslides at this site - see Operating Condition Nos. 3, 6 and 9. (7) "That the operator has not corrected all violations which he may have committed under any prior permit and which resulted in: a. Revocation of his permit, b. Forfeiture of part or all of his bond or other security, C. Conviction of a misdemeanor under G.S. 74-64, or d. Any other court order issued under G.S. 74-64." This is not applicable as the operator has no such prior mining violations in the State. Conclusions: There is no evidence to indicate that the proposed operation will violate any part of G.S. 74-51 (1-7) as outlined and reviewed above. The Act states that "in the absence of any such findings, a permit shall be granted." TED/se Attachments cc: Mr. Doug Miller, P.E.

Teer Company to conduct mining activities at the Lexington Quarry in Davidson County. The mining permit was issued on November 2, 1992. A recent North Carolina Court of Appeals decision has held that a person aggrieved by the issuance of a mining permit has the right to initiate a contested case hearing in the Office of Administrative Hearings pursuant to N.C.G.S. 150B-23 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA). Please be advised however, that this Department disagrees with that ruling and has recently filed documents in the office of Administrative Hearings to limit permit issuance challenges to a hearing on the record in Superior Court pursuant to N.C.G.S. 150B-43. A ruling on the Departments request is still pending. Despite our position on this issue, North Carolina law requires us to inform you of your right to contest the issuance of the permit. Unless the Court of Appeals' decision is changed, you still have the right to seek a contested case hearing pursuant to N.C.G.S. 150-23 of the APA. To preserve your right to a hearing, you must file a petition for a contested case in the Office of Administrative Hearings within sixty (60) days of the mailing of this notice to you. The address for filing the petition is The Office of Administrative Hearings, P.O. Drawer 27447, Raleigh, N. C. 27611-7447. Their telephone number is _(919) 733-2698.

Teer Company Lexington Quarry. The property is located near Lexington, NC, south of Interstate 85 and east of N.C. Highway 8. The only jurisdictional areas to be temporarily impacted are an intermittent stream channel. This temporary road will need to be constructed to allow construction equipment to build a permanent bridged road crossing from high ground to high ground. Since the permanent crossing will be bridged with no culverts, it does not require a permit. There is only a stream channel with no adjacent wetlands at the proposed temporary road crossing. Our wetland delineation of this area was reviewed by you on October 13, 1992 with Larry Sink of Soil and Environmental Consultants. Larry had previously met with a Mr. Knight of the N.C. Wildlife Commission on site. Mr. Knight had no objection to the project. This drainage is an unnamed tributary to Abbots Creek. We realize that this is a rather routine approval, but Tracy Davis of band Quality Section requested we address this issue with you during his review of our mining permit. (See Corps letter to him dated 12/29/91). Also, since this impact is less than 1/3 acre and above headwaters, prior notification to the Corps and/or DEM is not required for this work unless the district engineer believes it is of "significant impact".

The construction detail for the temporary stream crossing shows dirt fill. Bedding the pipe in clean stone is normally specified and is recommended. ✓2. Additional sediment control at the toe of the bridge abutment such as silt fence appears needed. �. visual screening such as Leyland Cypress is recommended along the northwest side of the haul road. The haul road and the Kepley property are located on high ground. During the winter, the trucks on the haul road will be visible. I recommend planting next to the road, rather than at the property boundary. ✓4. The information on blasting is very general. Delays are by definition at least 8 milliseconds apart. Comments from Doug: I concur with those of Gray. In addition, I would ask that Nello Teer define what is temporary and what is permanent. If the stream crossing stays in more than six months, I consider it to be permanent. If this office can provide further input, please contact [MV GDM/dh P.M. BROWN, INC.

BROWN I/NC. P.M. Brown Enclosures P.M. BROWN, INC. Consulting Geologists and Hydrologists P.O. Box 32093 Raleigh, NC 27622 (919) 787-0375 Discussion _of Any Adverse_ Effects on Nearby Septic Tanks Due to Dewatering of the Mine Excavation According to information obtained as a result of the examination of rock cores and outcrops, there are relatively few interconnected fractures in mineable rock at the quarry site, and, of those observed, most are narrow and steeply dipping. Thus, the movement of ground water takes place primarily in the weathered rock (saprolite) and overburden where those zones occur below the water table. Ground water moves through pore spaces and discontinuities in the saturated zone in response to differences in hydrostatic head. In undisturbed areas, the differences in head are provided by differences in land -surface elevation (topography) and the water moves in response to gravity from high areas toward low areas. Generally, the position of the water table, the top of the zone of saturation, mimics local topography. A mining evacuation creates a void in the saturated zone and relieves (drops) the hydrostatic head in that area. Water then moves toward the excavation from surrounding areas in response to a gradient sufficient to move it through the saprolite and overburden. Usually the maximum relief of head is controlled by the depth of the contact between the saprolite and hard rock. The maximum relief of head is the difference in elevation between the undisturbed water table and the contact with hard rock, except where permeable fractures exist in direct contact with the overlying saturated zone. The distance from the edge of the excavation out to surrounding areas where the water table is undisturbed determines the gradient or slope of the water table surface and thereby delineates the zone of influence around the excavation. Inside this zone of influence, the direction of ground -water flow is towards the mining pit. Outside the zone of influence, pre -mining flow patterns are present. When the saturated zone is composed of fine-grained "tight" material, the pore spaces available to transmit water are small, and a relatively steep gradient is required to move water through such material. This is the type of material that is present above hard rock in the Piedmont segment of the state. Its presence results in relatively - narrow zones of influence surrounding mining pits in the Piedmont. While there is no "hard and fast" rule involved, the zone of influence has not been found to extend more than 500 feet from the edge of a pit in seven other quarry sites located in the Piedmont, as is the Lexington site. Therefore, given the character of the soil, saprolite and hard rock at the Lexington site, i+: would be expected that the width of the zone of influence,wovId.`be irregular but would not exceed 500 feet. The purpose of the above discussion is to explain that any septic tank nitrification field lying outside of a mining pit's area of influence could not possibly be affected by dewatering a mining pit. At the Lexington site, the septic tanks nearest to the proposed pit are located at more than 750 feet from its proposed boundary. It is deemed most improbable that the dewatering of the proposed pit will have any affect at all on septic tanks, their nitrification fields or on the manner in which their effluent percolates down to the water table. In order to function properly, nitrification fields should be emplaced in permeable soils above the water table. If, in the event that a nitrification field were emplaced in the zone of influence created by dewatering the proposed pit, the lowering of the water table could only improve its efficiency by increasing the percolation time prior to its reaching the water table. Once reaching the water table, the effluent could move toward the pit, would be diluted many tens of times, would be captured by the dewatering system, would be pumped into holding ponds and would eventually receive a better degree of treatment than if it were part of many small-town, waste -treatment systems. fjD-93-' 92 7IJE 15: 47 I G: AWAFE EHV I i;?OHMEHTAL TEL f•Jp: 17048451759 t*73 POS Potential impacts of mining aotivities to be addressed in the hydrogeologiaal assessment should, as a minimum, include: (1) Calculate the zone of influence to identify the potential impact of mine dewatering on neighboring wells with respect to groundwater quantity (lowering the water table) and groundwater quality. (2) The potential impact of mine dewatering on the local groundwater quality. Nello L. Tear should evaluate the potential for poor quality surface water from High Rock Lake entering the groundwater caused by groundwater drawdown at the quarry pit. (3) The potential impact of the unlined earthen industrial wastewater settling ponds on the local groundwater quality. NQ110 L. Tear has not indicated if and what types of flocculant■ or duet suppression chemicals they intend to use at the quarry. As required in Nello L. Tear's application for a non -discharge permit, a chemical analysis of the wastewater and a site evaluation to determine changes in litholagy, the vertical permsability�of the unsaturated zone and the unsaturated zone and the hydraulic conductivity of the saturated zone has not been performed.

A mining permit should not be granted until the effects of the proposed mining activities on groundwater can be predicted based on an on -site hydrogeological database developed to ensure that groundwater standards promulgated by DEM will not be violated by the proposed operation. Without acceptable hydrogeological characterization, mining permit denial criteria NO. (3) cannot be evaluated. The characterization requirements should be similar in scope to the requirements contained in the North Carolina regulations NCAC 10G.0504(C) for landfill siting. `q BLASTING=STUDY) If a mining permit is granted for the proposed site, a preblasting survey as discussed in the blasting study submitted should bi made part of the permit conditions. C3. —PHYSICAL RAZARM The proposed method to prevent physical hazards to Fuller Road due to blasting and truck traffic has still not been identified as required by Title 15A: 05B.0004(a)(7).

Box 27687 Raleigh, North Carolina 27611 Re: Nello L. Teer Mining Permit Application Proposed Lexington Quarry AEI Job No. P133-05 Dear Mr. Davis: On behalf of the City of Lexington, North Carolina, we have reviewed Nello L. Teer's most recent submittal dated September 30, 1992 (received by the Division of Land Resources (DLR) October 5, 1992). Based upon Nello L. Tear's mining permit application as presently submitted, the following comments (many of which have been expressed in previous correspondence and remain unaddressed) are made for consideration by DLR in review of the above referenced permit application: 1. POTENTIAL GROUNDWATER IMPACTS OF PIT DEWATERING The DLR requested that Teer submit a groundwater monitoring program to address drawdown and contamination of the groundwater table within the proposed mining permit boundaries before off -site impacts occur. DLR also requested that site specific information be provided to support any conclusions made. I 995 MONROE FORD • =7J • WAPLOi E.RE 2&O] 1499 • TELEPHONE 7M1 M5-1691 - FAX(1 )945.1759 To address the drawdown, and potential impacts of the proposed mining activities, Nello L. Teer previously submitted a November, 1991 report entitled "Groundwater Survey and Evaluation in the Vicinity of the Nello L. Teer Company's Lexington Quarry" by Atlantic Geotech Associates (AGA). Teer has now submitted an undated supplemental section entitled "Discussion of Any Adverse Effects on Nearby Septic Tanks Due to Dewatering of the Mine Excavation", prepared by P.M. Brown, P.G. This latter section provides a brief general overview of groundwater flow within the Piedmont. However, no site specific information is presented in this report or supplemental section to validate the conclusions presented. The Piedmont Plateau comprises approximately the center two fifths of the State of North Carolina. (Stuckey, 1953) This region is composed of many different rock types each expressing different hydrologic characteristics. Variations within this region range from: argillites, slates, and tuffaceous rock within the Carolina Slate Belt to quartzites, and kyanite-quartz racks within the Kings Mountain Belt. (Horton, 1991) These extensive variations within the geology of the Piedmont, indicate data from one site can not effectively represent the hydrogeologic character of another site. 2 As a result, to effectively assess the hydrologic impacts the proposed .quarry will have on the underlying aquifer, a site specific characterization must be performed. This characterization should include: a. A sufficient number of monitoring wells to assess theihorizontal and vertical components of groundwater flow within the site prior to stressing the aquifer by constructing the proposed quarry; b. Multiple well hydraulic conductivity testing to assess the site specific impacts the proposed drawdown will have on the aquifer both on -site and to what extent these impacts may effect the aquifer off -site; and C. Site specific characterization of the various hyd'rogeologic units within the underlying aquifer based on accepted field testing and sampling protocols. The impacts that this proposed quarry may have on local septic systems and potable water wells is important. Effectively characterizing the aquifer prior to applying the stresses of the proposed quarry will allow both Nello L. Teer and DLR to predict and potentially prevent any adverse impacts these operations may have off -site on groundwater quality. The well survey by AGA did not include any site -specific data regarding measured seasonal fluctuation of the water table or data to support Nello L. Teer's claim that only "minor amounts" of groundwater will be removed by pit dewatering activities. An accurate estimate of the amount of groundwater that will be pumped from the pit should be 0 determined based on site specific hydrogeological information. As stated in the groundwater survey and evaluation submitted by Nello L. Teer, the magnitude of the normal seasonal fluctuations of the water table should be established before mining begins. While the proposed monitoring plan will assist in determining the impacts as they occur on -site, it will not predict, or prevent impacts from occurring off -site. Since groundwater monitoring on -site is a reactive form of site assessment, a predictive site -specific groundwater model must be developed to insure that the proposed dewatering activities and Nello L. Teer's proposed industrial wastewater impoundments will not impact neighboring wells or local groundwater quality in general, regardless of the number of wells in the area or their current usage. Just as with the mining permit application by Vulcan Materials Company, Inc. for a quarry in Buncombe County, North Carolina, the applicant should be required by DLR to demonstrate with a hydrogeological study before issuance of a mining permit that off -site impacts on the local groundwater will not occur as a result of the proposed mining activities. 4 Potential impacts of mining activities to be addressed in the hydrogeological assessment should, as a minimum, include: (1) Calculate the zone of influence to identify the potential impact of mine dewatering on neighboring wells with respect to groundwater quantity (lowering the water table) and groundwater quality. (2) The potential impact of mine dewatering on the local groundwater quality. Nello L. Teer should evaluate the potential for poor quality surface water from High Rock Lake entering the groundwater caused by groundwater drawdown at the quarry pit. (3) The potential impact of the unlined earthen industrial wastewater settling ponds on the local groundwater quality. Nello L. Teer has not indicated if and what types of flocculants or dust suppression chemicals they intend to use at the quarry. As required in Nello L. Teer's application for a non -discharge permit, a chemical analysis of the wastewater and a site evaluation to determine changes in lithology, the vertical permeability of the unsaturated zone and the unsaturated zone and the hydraulic conductivity of the saturated zone has not been performed. This information is essential in the development of a 5 predictive model of the effects of the settling ponds on groundwater quality. A mining permit should not be granted until the effects of the proposed mining activities on groundwater can be predicted based on an on -site hydrogeological database developed toyensure that groundwater standards promulgated by DEM will not be violated by the proposed operation. i Without acceptable hydrogeological characterization, mining permit denial''criteria No. (3) cannot be evaluated. The characterization requirements should be similar in scope to the requirements contained in the North Carolina regulations NCAC 10G.0504(C) for landfill siting. 2. BLASTING STUDY If a mining permit is granted for the proposed site, a I preblasting survey as discussed in the blasting study submitted should be made part of the permit conditions. 3. PHYSICAL HAZARDS The proposed method to prevent physical hazards to Fuller Road due to blasting and truck traffic has still not been identified as required by Title 15A: 05B.0004(a)(7). Since the proposed quarry operation presents a physical hazard to Fuller Street,as well as the citizens who utilize it, the 11 mining permit application should be denied based on denial criteria No. (4). 4. RECLAMATION OF THE PIT Under Title 15A: 05B.0004(b)(1) the applicant is required to specify land use subsequent to reclamation. Nello L. Teer has not submitted a plan for revegetation and reforestation or other surface treatment of the major affected area (the mining area) as required under Title 15A: 05B.0004(10). In the proposed plan the excavation pit will be completely abandoned. If the pit is left to fill with water, what will be its subsequent use; water storage, i recreation or a wildlife area? Each of these uses require an overall plan which harmonizes with the reclamation of the disturbed land surrounding the pit. The plan should also specify who will manage the area. 5. TIME SCHEDULE A time schedule for mining and reclamation activities has not been provided as required under Title 15A: 05b.004(11). Regulations require that drawings show segments that are to be mined and reclaimed during each year of the permit. This is basis for denial of the proposal permit, based on denial criteria No. (1). 7 1 6. PERMANENT VS. TEMPORARY EROSION CONTROL STRUCTURES The response to many of the items in the mining permit application by Teer regarding permanent erosion control is that the temporary structures will be cleaned out and left in operation.: In Item D.8. of the Reclamation Plan, a statement is made that no permanent drainage channels are to be built on -site. This discrepancy remains unaddressed. 7. POTENTIAL FOR VIOLATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL STANDARDS Teer has failed to provide sufficient evidence that violations of air quality, surface water quality and groundwater quality as promulgated by the Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources will not be violated by the proposed operations (including mining, crushing, asphalt manufacturing and concrete manufacturing activities). DLR should require Teer to obtain (a) an Air Quality Permit, (b) a NPDES Permit, and (c) a Non -Discharge Wastewater Permit prior to receiving a mining permit as evidence that violation of air quality, surface water quality and (in conjunction with hydrogeological assessment) groundwater quality will not occur. The City of Lexington requests that the DLR deny the Nello Teer mining permit application based on denial criteria No. 8 (3) until the!N.C. Division of Environmental Management (DEM) has issued the required environmental permits. Precedence for satisfying this mining permit denial criteria has been set by DLR (i.e. the Nello Teer Elm City Quarry) where justification that this criteria has been satisfied was based on the applicant's prior procurement of the appropriate environment permits from DEM. Plans submitted by Teer show the location of the proposed concrete and E asphalt plants. According to the Air Quality Section of i DEM, Teer has not included emissions from the asphalt plant in its air permit application. 8. 404 PERMIT AND 401 CERTIFICATION Teer has not supplied DLQ documentation, as requested, pertaining to 404 Permit and 401 Certification. Teer's response (to Item No. 7) indicates that a site inspection by the U.S. ArmykCorps of Engineers has not yet been made. 9. PREVIOUS MINING PERMIT VIOLATIONS Previous experiences with other Teer-owned quarry operations 1� have resultedjin violations of the mining permit conditions k including off site sedimentation. Teer was issued a Notice of Violation (NOV) on March 30, 1987 for violations of 9 i I i permit conditions at the Wake County (Crabtree) Quarry and similarly on February 19, 1991 at their High Point Quarry. DLR documentai tion states that Teer has "been quite flagrant in these violations". This previous experience with similar operations at�Teer's High Point and Crabtree Quarries -indicates that there is a substantial possibility that the i operations at!the proposed Lexington quarry will also result in off -site sedimentation and Teer's permit should therefore be denied based on denial criteria No. (6). 10. RECOR (a) (b) (c) VIOLATIONS On August 25, 1988, Teer was issued a Notice of I Noncompliance (NON) by DEM for air quality violations for dust emissions form the crushers at their Lake I County Quarry. Durham Ouarry On Auguit 28, 1987, Teer's Durham Quarry received a NON by DEM for Air quality violations regarding burning l materiali within 1000 feet from residential areas. Rocky M hint Ouarry On January 16,..1990, DEM conducted -an engineering evaluation of Teer's Rocky Mount Quarry and found that �f the fac�lity was in violation of North Carolina Air I Quality Regulations. A Notice of Violation (NOV) for Excessive Visible Emissions was issued on January 23, 1990. Bused on the violation, enforcement was issued against Teer on March 25, 1990 resulting in assessment of a Civill Penalty in the amount of $3,303.00. Under Title 15A: 055.0003, a good operating record is defined as til (2) consecutive years without being assessed a civil penalty, subject to other enforcement or having a permit suspel'ed or revoked under G.S. 74-55, or having a bond forfeit a. As discussed above, Teer has been issued a civil penalty for an air quality violation as recent as March 25, 1990 (Rocky Mount Quarry) and has issued a NOV 1i under G.S. 74-58 for violations of mining permit conditions at their Big 11 Point Quarry on February 19, 1991. Mining permit I denial criteria (No. 1) states that if any requirement of the Article or any rule or regulation promulgated hereunder will be violated by the proposed operation, tkiI permit may be denied. Tear's record of mining permit and air quality violations indicate that Teer - does not cur liently,have a "good operating record" as defined by the. North.parolina Administrative Code, and therefore i there is evidence to suggest that similar operating II violations will occur at the proposed Lexington site. 11 !j I Therefore, Te=r's mining permit application for the I Lexington sitl should be denied based on denial criteria No. (1) , r' 11.. CERCLA SITES Nello L. Teei,Company, is a member of the Beazer Group. I Beazer is currently listed as a potentially responsible party (PRB) to twenty-four (24) CERCLA sites (Comprehensive I Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 Superfund) in the United Sates, twenty-two (22) of I; which are listed on the National Priority List. �I One particular site (EPA ID No. MDD980705164) in Elkton, Maryland is a� sand gravel and stone quarry where 100,000 drums of solvent wastes and ninety (90) 55-gallon drums were dumped.

Mill, SC 29715 803-548-3066 FAX 803-548-3083 D OCT 05102 LAND QUAL17y SECTIQfV Subject: Proposed Blast Design for Initial Blasting Operations at the Lexington, North Carolina Quarry Site. Dear Mr. Edgerton, Vibra-Tech has reviewed the comments made by the Department of Environment,,Health, and Natural Resources with regard to proposed blasting procedures. While it should be understood by the State of North Carolina that the specific blast design and subsequent modifications depend to a certain degree on the judgement and expertise of the blaster of record for the Lexington site, certain guidelines can be proposed with regard to the initial development of blasting operations at the Lexington quarry. As was mentioned -in vibra-Tech's report dated December 5, 1991, the proposed blasting program for the Lexington quarry will be based onithe program currently in place at the North Raleigh quarry. ;Extensive regression analysis was performed on seismic data collected at the North Raleigh quarry over the past two years to provide the state with an assessment of the projectediimpact of blasting on neighboring properties. ; In reviewing theicurrent program at North Raleigh, we can propose the following blast design for initial blasting and pit development at the Lexington site. As in all Nello Teer quarries, hole diameter and bench height has been significantly reduced over the years to minimize the impact of blasting (ground vibration and air blast) on adjacent properties. Given these concerns, initial blasting operations at the Lexington site will be based on the following design: Bench height = 25-30 feet Hole diameter = 4-5 inches Burden = 9-110 feet Spacing = 13!-14 feet Maximum charge weight per delay = 200 pounds Average charge weight per delay = 150 pounds Stemming = 7 feet Minimum delay between charges = 8 milliseconds Typical shot design will be based on three row shots with approximately 1015 holes per row. During initial pit development, overall shot design may vary greatly due to the need for sinking shots and ramp construction. Actual blast design for any operation is fundamentally based on the response of the site specific geology to the explosive loading of each blast. Modifications to this basic design may`;be required in order to facilitate optimum fragmentation and minimizing ground transmitted vibration energy. These changes will be based on data collected by seismic monitoring of the resultant vibration waveform from each blast as well as a review of the muckpile produced from the associated blast. As to the actuallprocedures to be utilized at the Lexington quarry, as with all quarry operations in the state of North Carolina, the Lexington quarry will be required to follow a specific set of safety standards set forth under the terms of the mining permit issued by the State of North Carolina, various MSHA guidelines, the North Carolina Department of Labor - Mine and Quarry Division, as well as corporate policy for Nello Teer aggregate operations. Blasting will typically be performed by a blasting specialist associated with one of the major explosive manufacturers. At all times, blasting operations will be directly supervised by Nello Teer personnel. No explosives will be stored on site. On the day of each blast, properly equipped and marked transportation vehicles will bring all required blasting agents on site and remove any agents not detonated during blasting activities for that particular day. Safety procedures will include the blocking of all roads leading through the blast area as well as the sounding of an audible siren orlhorn prior to each blast. An "all clear" signal will also'be sounded at the conclusion of the blasters inspecti}on of the blast area after each blast. Upon request, the' Lexington quarry will notify by phone any local resident that wishes to be notified prior to blasting operations. i In reviewing the operations of quarries throughout the state that are operated by the Nello Teer Company, it is obvious that the safety programs related to blasting operations have been designed to insure the safety of both the employees of the quarry as well as the local population. The utilization of state of the art blasting techniques as well as professional blasting consultants will insure that the adjacent property owners experience no degradation in their quality of life as a result of blasting operations associated with,this quarry.

Box 32093 Raleigh, NC 27622 (919)787-0375 Discussion of An Adverse Effects on Nearby Septic Tanks _Due to'Dewaterin of the Mine Excavation According to' information obtained as a (result of the examination of rock cores and outcrops, there are relatively few interconnected fractures in mineable rock at the quarry site, and, of those observed, most are narrow and steeply.dipping. Thus, the movement of ground water takes place primarily in the weathered - rock (saprolite) and overburden where those zones occur below the water table. Ground water moves through pore spaces and discontinuities in the saturated zone in response to differences in hydrostatic head: In undisturbed areas, the differences in head are provided by differences in land -surface elevation (topography) and the water moves in response Ito gravity from high areas toward low areas. Generally, the position of the water table, the top of the zone of saturation, mimicsilocal topography. i A mining evacuation creates a void in the saturated zone and relieves (drops) the hydrostatic head in that area. Water then moves toward the excavation from surrounding areas in response to a gradient sufficient to move it through the saprolite and overburden. Usually the maximum relief of head is controlled by the depth of the contact between the saprolite and hard rock. The. maximum relief of Bead is the difference in elevation between the undisturbed water table and the contact with hard rock, except where permeable .fractures exist in direct contact with the overlying saturated zone. The distance from the edge of the excavation out to � surrounding areas where the water table is undisturbed determines the gradient or slope of the water table surface and thereby delineates the zone of influence around the excavation. Inside this zone of influence,- the direction of ground -water flow iks towards the mining pit. Outside the zone of influence, pre -mining flow patterns are present. When the saturated zone is. composed of fine-grained "tight" material, the pore spaces available to transmit water are small, and a relatively steep gradient is required to move water through such material. This is the type of material that is present above hard rock in the Piedmont segment of,the state. Its presence results in relatively - narrow zones of influence surrounding mining pits in the Piedmont. While there is not"hard and fast" rule involved, the zone of influence has not been found to extend more than 500 feet from the edge of a pit in seven other quarry sites located in the Piedmont, as is the Lexington site. Therefore, given the character of the soil, saprolite and hard rock at the Lexington.site, it would be expected that the width of the zone of influencewould be .irregular but would not exceed 500 feet. The purpose of the above discussion is to explain that any septic tank nitrification field lying outside of a mining pit's area -of influence could not possibly be affected by dewatering a mining pit. At the Lexington site, the septic tanks nearest to the proposed pit are located at more than 750 feet from its proposed boundary. It is deemed most improbable that the dewatering of the proposed pit will have any affect at all on septic tanks, their nitrification fields or on the manner in which their effluent percolates down to the water table. In order to function properly, nitrification fields should be emplaced in permeable soils above the water table. If, in the event that a nitrification field were emplaced in the zone of influence created by dewatering the proposed pit, the lowering of the water table could only improve its efficiency by i=ncreasing the percolation time prior to its reaching the water !table. Once reaching the water table, the effluent could move toward the pit, would be diluted many tens of times, would be captured by the dewatering system, would be pumped into holding ponds anti would eventually receive a better degree of treatment than if itl were part of many small-town, waste --treatment systems.

Mill, SC 29715 803-548-3066 FAX 803-548-3083 RECE6VED Mr. Steve Edgerton OCT A 5 �� Nello Teer Company v 211 W. Parrish Street Durham, North Carolina LAND QUALITY SECTION I Subject: Proposed Blast Design for Initial Blasting Operations at the Lexington, North Carolina Quarry Site. i Dear Mr. Edgerton, I Vibra-Tech has reviewed the comments made by the Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources with regard to proposed blasting procedures. While it should be understood by the State of North Carolina that the specific blast design and subsequent modifications depend to a certain degree on the judgement and expertise of the blaster of record for the Lexington site, certain guidelines can be proposed with regard to the initial development of blasting operations at the Lexington quarry. As was mentioned in Vibra-Tech's report dated December 5, 1991, the proposed blasting program for the Lexington quarry will be based on'the program currently in place at the North Raleigh quarry. Extensive regression analysis was performed on seismic data collected at the North Raleigh quarry over the past two years to provide the state with an assessment of the projected+impact of blasting on neighboring properties. In reviewing the current program at North Raleigh, we can propose the following blast design for initial blasting and pit development at the Lexington site. As in all Nello Teer quarries, hole diameter and bench height has been significantly reduced over the years to minimize the impact of blasting (ground vibration and air blast) on adjacent properties. Given these concerns, initial blasting operations at the Lexington site will be based on the following design: Bench height = 25-30 feet Hole diameter 4-5 inches Burden = 9-10 feet Spacing = 13--1.4 feet Maximum charge weight Average charge weight Stemming = 1 feet Minimum delay between per delay = 200 pounds per delay = 150 pounds charges = 8 milliseconds Typical shot design will be based on three row shots with approximately 10-15 holes per row. During initial pit development, overall shot design may vary greatly due to the need for sinking shots and ramp construction. Actual blast design for any operation is fundamentally based on the response of the site specific geology to the explosive loading of each blast. Modifications to this basic design may be required in order to facilitate optimum fragmentation and minimizing ground transmitted vibration energy. These changes will be based on data collected by seismic monitoring of the resultant vibration waveform from each blast as well as a review of the muckpile produced from the associated blast. I As to the actual procedures to be utilized at the Lexington quarry, as with all quarry operations in the state of North Carolina, the Lexington quarry will be required to follow a specific set of safety standards set forth under the terms of the mining permit issued by the State of North Carolina, various MSHA guidelines, the North Carolina Department of Labor - Mine and Quarry Division, as well as corporate policy for Nello Teer aggregate operations. Blasting will typically be performed by a blasting specialist associated with one of the major explosive manufacturers. At all times, blasting operations will be directly supervised by Nello Teer personnel. No explosives will be stored on site. On the day of each blast, properly equipped and marked transportation vehicles will bring all required blasting agents on site and remove any agents not detonated during blasting activities for that particular day. Safety procedures will include the blocking of all roads leading through ;the blast area as well as the sounding of an audible siren or horn prior to each blast. An "all clear" signal will also be sounded at the conclusion of the blasters inspection of the blast area after each blast. Upon request, the Lexington quarry will notify by phone any local resident that wishes to be notified prior to blasting operations. In reviewing the loperations of quarries throughout the state that are operated by the Nello Teer Company, it is obvious that the safety programs related to blasting operations have been designed to insure the safety of both the employees of the quarry as well as the local population. The utilization of state of the art blasting techniques as well as professional blasting consultants will insure that the adjacent property owners experience no degradation in their quality of life as a result of blasting operations associated with this quarry.

Given these concerns, initial blasting operations at the Lexington site will be based on the following design: Bench height = 25-30 feet Hole diameter = 4-5 inches Burden = 9-16 feet Spacing = 13-�14 feet Maximum charge weight per delay = 200 pounds Average charge weight per delay = 150 pounds Stemming = 7, feet Minimum delay between charges = 8 milliseconds Typical, shot design will be based on three row shots with approximately 10-15 holes per row. During initial pit development, overall shot design may vary greatly due to the need for sinking I shots and ramp construction. Actual blast design for any operation is fundamentally based on the response of the site specific geology to the explosive loading of each blast. Modifications to this basic design may be required in order to facilitate optimum fragmentation and minimizing ground transmitted vibration energy. These changes will be based on data collected by seismic monitoring of the resultant vibration waveform from each blast as well as a review of the muckpile produced from the associated blast. As to the actual procedures to be utilized at the Lexington quarry, as with all quarry operations in the state of North Carolina, the Lexington quarry will be required to follow a specific set of safety standards set forth under the terms of the mining permit issued by the State of North Carolina, various MSHA guidelines, the North Carolina Department of Labor - Mine and'Quarry Division, as well as corporate policy for Nello Teer aggregate operations. Blasting will typically be performed by a blasting specialist associated with one of the major explosive manufacturers. At all times, blasting operations will be directly supervised by Nello Teer personnel. No explosives will be stored onisite. On the day of each blast, properly equipped and marked transportation vehicles will bring all required blasting agents on site and remove any agents not detonated during blasting activities for that particular day. i Safety procedures will include the blocking of all roads leading through the blast area as well as the sounding of an audible siren or horn prior to each blast. An "all clear" signal will also be sounded at the conclusion of the blasters inspection of the blast area after each blast. Upon request, the'Lexington quarry will notify by phone any local resident that wishes to be notified prior to blasting operations. In reviewing the operations of quarries throughout the state that are operated;by the Nello Teer Company, it is obvious that the safety programs related to blasting operations have been designed to insure the safety of both the employees of the quarry as well as the local population. The utilization of state of the art blasting techniques as well as professional blasting consultants will insure that the adjacent propertylowners experience no degradation in their quality of life as a result of blasting operations associated with this quarry.
