The Princeton li Quarry, located in Johnston County, does not appear to have an unduly adverse effect on

Facilities are required to register their water withdrawals in accordance with the North Carolina General
Statute G.S. 143-215.22H. This statute requires any non-agricultural water user who withdraws 100,000
gallons or more in any one day of ground water or surface water to register and update withdrawals. This
statute also requires transfers of 100,000 gallons or more in any one day of surface water from one river
basin to another river basin to register and update their water transfers. Water withdrawal registrants must
complete the annual water use reporting form by April 1 for the previous year. The registration form may be
obtained from the following link:

If you have further questions regarding the water withdrawal registration please contact John Barr with the
Division of Water Resources at (919) 707-9021 or email him at john.barr@ncdenr.gov.
