Re: Steel Gray Mine (Draft Permit)
Mitchell County
French Broad River Basin'
Dear Mr. Andrews:
Your application for a mining permit for the above referenced mine site has been
reviewed but not yet approved. Enclosed is' a draft of the mining permit proposed by the
Department. The conditions in the draft permit were based primarily upon information
supplied in your application. Other necessary conditions may have been added to ensure
compliance with The Mining Act of 1971.
The reclamation bond has been calculated for this site using the additional information
submitted to this section (see enclosed worksheet). The bond amount for this site is
$25,300.00. The bond is required before the permit can be issued. For your convenience,
have enclosed a bond form, an assignment of a savings account form and an irrevocable
standby letter of credit form. The name on the security form must be the same as the name
appearing on the enclosed draft permit, i.e., Blue Ridge Quarries, Inc. In addition to one of
these alternatives you may, upon request, substitute a cash deposit.
Please review the enclosed draft permit and the reclamation bond worksheet, and
contact this office should you have any objections or questions concerning the permit
conditions. G.S. 74-51 provides that the operator has sixty (60) days following the mailing of a
notice of the required bond in which to file the required surety.
The permit cannot be issued until the required security has been received. No mining
may be conducted until the permit is issued. G.S. 74-65 states that the issuance of a mining
permit does not supersede or otherwise affect or prevent the enforcement of any zoning
regulation or ordinance duly adopted by an incorporated city or county or by any agency or
department of the State of North Carolina.
