RE: NPDES Application for Coverage Under General Permit NCG02
Landsdown Earth and Pipe, Inc. — Northwest Mine
Brunswick County —Cape Fear River Basin
Dear Ms. Lucas
On behalf of Landsdown Earth and Pipe, Inc. (Landsdown), I hereby submit the attached
NPDES Application for Coverage under General Permit NCG02 for the modification of the
existing sand mining operation located at 3949 Blue Banks Loop Road in Brunswick County. The
mining operation is currently covered by Mining Permit No.10-82 and will be expanding from
78.74 acres to 322.4 acres permitted with the affected acreage increasing from 73.74 acres to
177.7 acres to maximize access to sand reserves within the tract. Coverage under this permit is
requested as there will be temporary diversions and skimmer basins installed and maintained
during the phased expansion of the mine excavation until all stormwater drainage is internal to
the mine excavations.
The currently approved mining method of pumping water from one pit to another and
recirculating it within the mining operation with no discharge from the site will continue. This
allows access to excavate the sand resource while also ensuring water is readily available to the
plant for washing material. All wash water is directed to a sediment basin, which discharges Into
a perimeter ditch system that returns the water to previously mined excavations. This non -
discharge water recirculation system and overall stormwater management methodology,
Including buffers and setbacks from property lines and streams/wetlands, are described in detail
In the attached NPDES application and the attached mine plan sheets. We have also attached
our $100 stormwater permit application processing fee to initiate the review of our application.
Copies of the detailed mining permit modification application form and its attachments
have been filed separately with DEMLR's Mining Program for its review in issuing the mining
permit modification to cover the above changes to the existing operation. Your staff may want
to review this information for additional details.

If the site will discharge to a separate storm sewer system, name the operator of the separate storm sewer
system (e.g. City of Raleigh municipal storm sewer).
Discharge of wastewater to receiving waters classified as WS-II through WS-V, or SA, must be
approved by the Division of Water Resources (DWR) or Division of Marine Fisheries
(DMF). DEMLR cannot grant coverage under NCG020000 without that approval. Also be advised that

b) Will this mine be dewatering but not discharging to waters of the state? (Answer only if dewatering)
❑ No
N Yes If yes, explain how you are dewatering, and where that water will be directed:sr..'c.:
Water is pumped from one mine pit to another with no discharge from the operation. All water is contained within the closed loop system. Any water
pumped to and used by the sand wash plant is routed to a sediment basin, then released through a ditch and returned to the mine pits.
26) Are there wetlands or surface waters within 400' of the mine pit perimeter?
❑ No
N Yes If yes, what distance are they from the mine pit perimeter? 100 feet.

potentially Impact any wetlands or other waterbodies?
N No, dewatering will not occur near (within 400') of wetlands or other waterbodies (e.g., streams, lake, etc.)
❑ Yes, dewatering will be near wetlands or other waterbodies
Wetlands must be CLEARLY DELINEATED on the site plan. Mine dewatering activities that
have the potential to drain wetlands or otherwise impact surface water or groundwater MUST develop and
Implement a Pumping Operation and Monitoring (POM) Plan that has been approved by the
Department.
For sites that may drain wetlands — approval of a POM Plan may be required Prior to coverage under
this Permit. The POM Plan should be submitted to the appropriate Regional Office and in all cases must be
approved prior to operation.
The plan shall include, but is not limited to: (1) Groundwater monitoring strategies to demonstrate the effect of
pumping and to establish any pumping regime necessary to reduce impacts, and (2) Detailed plans to maintain
surrounding hydrology and respective monitoring to demonstrate compliance. See checklist at the end of the
application. Contact the Regional Ofce for questions specific to your mine.
27) Have you been required to obtain 4041401 Certification permits?
8 No

Bradley Newland, Environmental Regional Supervisor
NC Department of Environmental Quality
Wilmington Regional Office— Division of Air Quality
127 Cardinal Drive Extension
Wilmington, NC 28405
RE: Request for Division of Air Quality Permit Determination
Landsdown Earth and Pipe, Inc. — Mobile Sand Screening Plant for Existing Sand Mine
Brunswick County —Cape Fear River Basin
Dear Mr. Newland:
Landsdown Earth and Pipe, Inc. (Landsdown) is applying for a mining permit modification with the
Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources (DEMLR) to expand its existing sand mining operation at 3949
Blue Banks Loop Road NE, Leland, NC 28451 in Brunswick County. Our intent is to utilize a 2019 Terex M2100
three track mounted mobile sand wash plant with a four -cylinder CAT diesel engine (131 HP @ 2200 PRM) to
produce up to 200,000 tons of wet sand product per year. The mobile screening operation will be removed
from the site no later than 12 months from its placement.
We have completed the DAQ emissions calculation spreadsheet based upon the annual 200,000 ton
anticipated sand production and have attached the completed spreadsheet for your consideration. Based upon
this analysis, our estimated actual emissions of total particulate matter < 10 microns (PM10) for this mobile sand
screening operation will be approximately 0.24 tons per year with estimated potential emissions of 2.11 per
year. As these values are less than 10 tons per year, it appears that our mobile sand screening operation meets
the exemption from obtaining a DAQ permit under i5A NCAC 02Q.0302(d). We have also attached
manufacturer information on the Terex M2100 mobile screening system for your information.
Landsdown respectfully requests that DAQ review this information and respond in writing confirming
that neither a DAQ permit nor registration is required at this time. In addition, we are requesting clarification on
whether or not we would be exempt from DAQ permitting if we decided to keep the mobile screen onsite longer
than 12 months while not exceeding annual production of 200,000 tons of wet sand product based upon our
very low estimated actual emissions of total particulate matter.
Thank you for your time and assistance with this matter. If you have any questions regarding this
matter, please contact Mr. Tracy Davis, PE, our environmental consultant, at (919) 368-0246.
Sincerely,
VA ---
