Matt,
I inspected the complaint site today May 02, 2002. It appears to be a
local
program sediment site, but I am going to do further investigation to
confirm this.

Steve and Brooks,
I received a complaint from Lynn Peters (336-767-2085) in Forsyth
County. She said that VMC North Quarry has a waste site near her home.
VMC has built a dike to retain the sediment but it is not working
properly. So far, they have dumped about1500 loads of dirt. Some of
the runoff has entered a nearby stream. She has already called Jeff
Kopf with the Forsyth County Local Program. Jeff told her he will send
someone out to look at the site this afternoon. Can you guys look at
this?
Thanks,
Matt

RE: Blasting Complaints
North Quarry_
Permit No. 34-02
Forsyth County
Dear Ms. Byrd. -
The review has been completed on the shot records you previously
submitted for the June 1 through June 29, 2000 blasts and the September
27 through October 3, 2000 blasts at the North Quarry. Your company has
been found to be in compliance with the blasting requirements of your mining
permit. I have already notified the complainant, Ms. Lisa Hill, of our findings.
Based on the descriptions of the blasts you provided and on our
review of the shot information, it appears that the adverse reaction to your
blasting operation conducted on June 29, 2000 may be related to elevated
airblast readings. While this reading is within the maximum limit specified
in your permit, it is sufficiently high enough to produce "nuisance"
complaints. I strongly recommend that carefully review the blasting
procedures employed at this facility and make adjustments to reduce offsite
airblast levels, such as avoiding blasting during rainy weather,
The remaining records have also been evaluated and no apparent
causes for the complaints were found
Thank you for your continued cooperation. If you should have any
questions on the above, please contact me at [phone].
Sincerely,

RE: Blasting �ot

Dear Ms, Hill:
Our office has completed its review of Vulcan Construction Materials
Company, LP's blasting information related to the June 1 through June 29,
2000 blasts and September 29 through October 3, 2000 blasts conducted at
its North Quarry. It was found that Vulcan Construction Materials Company,
LP was in compliance with the blasting requirements of its mining permit
during the period in question,
All peak particle velocities, a measurement of ground vibration with
units in inches per second (ips), were well below the maximum allowable
limit of 1.0 ips specified in Vulcan Construction Materials Company, LP's
mining permit, More specifically, all recorded values were at or below 40
percent of the maximum limit of 1.0 ips. According to extensive research by
the U.S. Bureau of Mines and others, particle velocities below 0.5 ips
effectively eliminate the possibility of any structural damage.
All airblast readings, a measurement of the atmospheric pressure
wave (overpressure) with units in psi or dBL, were below the maximum
allowable limit of 128 dBL specified in Vulcan Construction Materials
Company, LP's mining permit and well below the U. S. Bureau of Mine's
recognized level of 164 dBL for prevention of glass breakage. A key point
worth noting is that glass breakage occurs at much lower levels of
overpressure than structural damage, such as cracking plaster.

However, we did note that there was a increase in the overpressure reading for a
blast on June 29, 2000. We have brought this to Vulcan Construction Materials Company,
LP's attention and have suggested that it adjust its blasting practices to further reduce
noise and nuisance complaints from nearby landowners.
Thank you for your interest and patience in this matter. Hopefully I have answered
your concerns adequately. If you should have any additional questions or concern, please
contact me at (919) 7334574.

RE: Blasting Complaint
North Quarry
Permit No. 34-02
Forsyth County 1`
Yadkin River Basin
Dear Ms. Byrd:
This office recently r ceived a complaint directed at blasting
practices conducted at the above referenced quarry. According to the
complainant, Ms. i rd, the vibrations produced from the blasts at
North Quarry on June 29, and October 2, 2000 caused windows to
shake and the power to the house go off.
. As provided in the mining permit for this site, you are requested to
provide to this office duplicate copies of all shot records related to the
blasts conducted on June 29 and October 2, 2000, including any
seismograph records made. Furthermore, please forward all shot
information for one. production shot conducted immediately prior to and
one production shot after the blasts in question for this office's review.
I suggest you discuss this matter with Ms. Hill. Her address and
telephone number are as follows,

Please attach this approval letter to your existing mining permit

number on the permit document shall remain the same as before this
modification.
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 lies with you.
As a reminder, your permitted acreage at this site is 322 acres
and the amount of land you are approved to disturb is 179 acres.

Dear Mr. Poplin:
This purpose of this letter is to confirm receipt of your June 18,
1999 letter and revised maps. It is my understanding that you wish
to clarify the ultimate pit limit and ten year pit limit at your company's
North Quarry. These limits were inadvertently left off of the last
modification request maps prepared in 1992.
We acknowledge these pit limits and have retained a copy of
the revised maps for our files for future reference. We appreciate
your diligence in bringing this matter to our attention.
As a reminder, your permitted acreage at this site remains 322
acres and the amount of land you are approved to disturb is 179
acres.

During the recent review and approval of the reduction in size of several sediment basins, we became aware of an
potential confusing item on our nine snaps submitted and approved several rears ago.
The 1991 renewal and modification map correctly depicted the ultimate pit limit that would include areas now
occupied by shop. employee and Central Services buildings, It also depicted the I0-year quarry expansion area, A
copy of this map is enclosed with the two limits highlighted. During the subscgent permitting in 1992 of the new
plant site, north of Mill Creek, the ultimate pit limit was inadvertently omitted and the I 0-year quarry expansion
area was not shown with the correct. revised acreage of 37.58.
To hopefully resolve any future confusion or questions that may arise and to update your office. find enclosed a
sectional map of North_ it shows the majority of the site, with the current pit expansion extending into the old
plant area: soil overburden will be temporarily stockpiled and sold. The map also shoes the ultimate pit limit.
Should you have any questions or require further clarification. please contact Tim Knopf or Inc. Thank you for
vour attention to this matter..
Sincerely.

Matt, please review/revise and forward these comments to Judy

I have reviewed the permit modification request for the
referenced
mine. I also inspected the portion of the site pertinent to
this permit
modification on 5/14/99. I see no reason to disapprove this
request to
reduce the sizes of sediment basins 1 and 2. Basin 1 receives
runoff
from a disturbed area of 5-7 acres (compared to the 30 acres
of
disturbed area in 1993). Basin 2 no longer receives runoff
from any
disturbed area, due to stabilization of its drainage area.

1 spoke with you recently regarding our need to reduce the original design capacity of two sediment basins. Find
enclosed the design calculations that were submitted and approved in 1993 for the new plant site located north of
Mill Creek.
Site development and plant construction are entering the final phases and should be complete by early summer.
Because operational area is very limited and the majority of the formally disturbed area is or will soon be
stabilized, we believe it is prudent and reasonable to reduce the storage capacity. Presently the site is
approximately 60 percent stabllzed, with the berms revegetated, ditches riprapped and the constructioNplant area
stabiized with crusher run. I estimate within 60 days, the site will be 100 percent stabilzed with all areas provided
with an erosion -resister[ ground cover (vegetation or stone).
I propose to reduce the capacity of the two sediment basins to approximately 25 percent of the original design. For
Basin No 1, the approximate duneneions would be 50 x 100 x 5' deep and for Basin No. 20 the approximate
dimeesions would be 25 x 75 x 2.5' deep. The basins would continue 10 be cleaned- t when they reach half.
capacity.
Should you have any questions m require additional information in the above, please contact me. Your earliest
response would be welcomed and enable us to proceed with site development, hopefully utilizing the critically
needed, additional surface area for operational purposes. Thank you for you consideration and input.

RE: High Airblast Reading of December 13, 1995
North Quarry
Mining Permit No. 34-02
Forsyth County
Dear Mr. Chidsey:
This letter is in response to your investigation report dated
December 20, 1995. The investigation report contained information
regarding the high air blast recording associated with the blast
conducted at the quarry on December 13-1 1995. An overpressure
measurement of 130 dBl was measured by your company's seismograph
at approximately 900 feet from the blast.
This office has completed its review of your investigation
report. It appears that the excessive airblast reading for this
shot was related to the severing of the non -electric surface line
by electric cap detonation of explosive product.
I concur with the remediation measures outlined in your
report. Primarily, the remediation measures are as follows:
1) Explosives shall be handled with care and respect at all
times.
2) A pre -blast survey of the shot area shall be conducted
after loading each shot to identify any spilled explosive
products. All such materials shall be removed from the
blast area prior to blast initiation.
In order to reduce excessive airblast readings in the future
at this facility, the above remedial measures proposed by your
company will be considered part of the blasting procedures outlined
in Mining Permit No. 34-02. Please attach a copy of this letter to
your mining permit for this site for future reference.

The operator shall provide to the Department a copy'of the
findings of any seismic studies conducted at this facility. The
operator shall make every reasonable effort to incorporate the
studies' recommendations into the production blasting program.
The following blasting conditions shall be observed by the
operator to prevent hazard to persons and adjacent property from
thrown rock or vibrations:
A. In all blasting operations, except as hereinafter otherwise
provided, the maximum peak particle velocity of any
component of ground motion shall not exceed 1 inch per
second at the immediate location of any building outside of
the permitted area regularly occupied by human beings such
as dwelling house, church, school, public building, or
commercial or institutional building outside of the
permitted area. The operator shall monitor each blast with
a seismograph.
B. Airblast overpressure shall not exceed 128 decibels linear
(DBL) as measured at the immediate location of any regularly
occupied building such as any dwelling house, church,
school, public building, or commercial or institutional
building.
The operator shall take all reasonable precautions to insure
that flyrock is not thrown beyond areas where the access is
temporarily or permanently guarded by the operator. Should
flyrock occur beyond the guarded area or the levels in Items
A and B above are exceeded, the operator shall report the
incident to the Department immediately and further use of
explosive at the site shall be immediately suspended until
the following actions have been taken:
A thorough investigation as to the cause(s) of the
incident shall be conducted.
A satisfactory report detailing the investigation shall
be provided to the Department within 10 days of the
incident. Said 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 site. Failure to take
corrective measures to prevent flyrock and repeated
instances of flyrock shall be considered a violation of this
permit.

Page 7 of 11
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; and blast
location. Records shall be maintained at the permittee's
mine office and copies shall be provided to the Department
upon request.
The operator shall, when requested by the Department, give
24 hour advance notice to the Land Quality Section prior to
any blast during a period for which notice is requested.
9. High Wall Barrier
A physical barrier consisting of large boulders placed end -to -end
or fencing shall be maintained at all times around the perimeter
of any highwall to prevent inadvertent public access. In
addition, a minimum ten (10) foot wide horizontal safety bench
shall be provided at the junction between the top of rock and the
toe of the overburden cut slope for any pit walls disturbed after
August 7, 1992.
10. visual screening
A. Existing vegetation shall be maintained between the mine and
public thoroughfares to screen the operation from the
public. Additional screening methods, such as constructing
earthen berms, shall be employed as deemed appropriate by
the Department.
Berms shall be located and constructed as shown on the Mine
Map dated September 1991 and received by the Land Quality
Section on June 8, 1992. In addition to grasses, loblolly
and/or Virginia pines shall be planted as deemed appropriate
by the Department to improve visual and noise buffering.
Berms for the 39.0 acre modification north of Mill Creek
shall be located and constructed as shown on the Future
Plant Area Plan, Erosion & Sedimentation Control &
Reclamation Map (Y930053) dated August 9, 1993.
The operator shall notify the Department in writing of the desire
to delete, modify or otherwise change any part of the mining,
reclamation, or erosion/sediment control plan contained in the
approved application for a mining permit and any approved
revisions to it. Approval to implement such changes must be
obtained from the Department prior to on -site implementation of
the revisions.

RE: . Blasting Complaint
North Quarry
Permit No. 34-02
Forsyth County
Dear Ms. Hill:
Our office has completed its review of Vulcan Material Company's
shot records related to the September 11 and 18, 1997 blasts at their
North Quarry. It was found that Vulcan Material Company was within
the blasting requirements of their mining permit.
All peak particle velocities, a measurement of ground vibration
with units in inches per second (ips), were well below the maximum
allowable limit of 1.0 ips specified in Vulcan Material Company's mining
permit. More specifically, all recorded values were at or below 36 per
cent of the maximum limit of 1.0 ips. According to extensive research
by the U.S. Bureau of Mines and others, particle velocities below 0.5 ips
effectively eliminate the possibility of any structural damage.
All airblast readings, a measurement of the atmospheric pressure
wave (overpressure) with units in psi or dBL, were below the maximum
allowable limit of 128 dBL specified in Vulcan Material Company's
mining permit and well below the U. S. Bureau of Mine's recognized
level of 164 dBL (0-5 psis for prevention of glass breakage. A key point
worth noting is that glass breakage occurs at much lower levels of
overpressure than structural damage, such as cracking plaster.
However, we did note that it appeared the complaints may be
driven by elevated air blast readings. We have brought this to Vulcan
Material Company's attention and have suggested that they adjust their
blasting practices .

Dear Ms. Byrd,
The review has been completed on the shot records you
previously submitted for the September 11 and September 18, 1997
blasts at the North Quarry. Your company has been found to be in
compliance with the blasting requirements of your mining permit. I have
already notified the complainant, Ms. Lisa Hill, of our findings.
Based on the descriptions of the blasts you provided and on our
review of the shot records it appears that adverse reaction to your
blasting operations may be related to elevated airblast readings.
Predicted reading were at 128 dBL. While the actual readings are below
the maximum limit specified in your permit they are sufficiently high
enough to produce "nuisance" complaints.
I strongly recommend that Vulcan Materials Company carefully
review the blasting procedures employed at this facility and make
adjustments to reduce offsite airblast levels.

Explosives Column Check:
(this is a very approximate method based upon numerous assumptions;
specific densities may vary greatly depending upon the type and manufacturer
of the explosive products used in the shot; must consider each explosive used;
refer to Dupont Handbook for actual SPD, otherwise use the following:)
Assumptions (per Ireco):
If "straight" emulsion is used, use SPD (specific density) = 1,20
If a "blend/slurry" is used, use SPD (specific density) = 1.25
If "straight" anfo is used, use SPD (specific density) = 0.85

RE: Blasting Complaint— Lisa Hill
North Quarry
Dear Mrs. Wehner;
I received a telephone call from Mel Nelvins on September 18, 1997_ Mr. Nelvins was calling to
inform Vulcan of a blasting complaint he received from Lisa Hill. Enclosed in duplicate are
blasting and seismograph records for the shot conducted on September 18, 1997 and two shots
prior to this date- There has not been a shot conducted after September 18, 1997. If you need
records for a future shot, please let me know.
If I can be of further assistance, please give me a call at [phone]
Sincere ,
Vicki D. 7ones�.

Dear Mr. Bracey:

I have reviewed the sasmograms that you submitted to GeoSonics for Shot No. 10, January 27,
1997.
The seismogram from SSU 2039 did not include any calibration pulses. Although the
seismogram does not indicate any apparrnt signs of a malfunction occurring, a valid calibration
pulse is a necessity to the certification of the three ground channel readings.
A calibration pulse associated with the sound channel verifies that the microphone was plugged
into the seismograph and the electronic connections were intact. However, the fact that a
waveform does exist on this record is a clear indication that the microphone was connected and
sent data to the seismograph for processing. (If the microphone had not been properly
connected, the sound channel waveform would have been 'flat.')
The peak airblast waveform was measured. The reading was found to he 0,00293 psi/120dB.
This represents 40.7% of the North Carolina limit of 0.0072 psi/126dB.
The record of GPS unit 1079 (1127/979 10:04 AM) was reviewed by Thomas W. Novotny of
Vibra-Tech Engineer. Mr. Novotny does not believe this to be a blast recording. Possible
scenarios include electronic malfunction, electronic interference, and/or operator error.

RE: Blasting Complaint
North Quarry
Permit No. 34-02
Forsyth County
Dear Ms..Hill-
Our office has completed its review of Vulcan Materials
Company's shot records related to the October 25 and 29, 1996
blasts and January and February, 1997 blasts at their North Quarry.
It was found that Vulcan Materials. Company (VMC) was within the
blasting requirements of their mining permit except for Shot No. 10
on January 27, 1997 A reading of 157 was recorded on a second
seismograph monitoring the blast. -- ...
As you are aware, a letter was sent to VMC on May 7, 1997
requiring VMC to provide this office with a detailed analysis of
this reading. A response was received by this office from VMC on
May 13, 1997.. The report from both the blasting contractor and
plant manager noted that there was a problem with the particular
seismograph.. Since the wave form of the record from this
seismograph is not like a typical shot wave form, this office
agrees with VMC's findings.
All... peak particle velocities of the remaining recordings, a
measurement of ground vibration with units in inches per second
lips), were well below the maximum allowable limit of.._1.O ips
specified in VMC's mining permit. More specifically, all recorded
values were at or below 53 per cent of the maximum limit of 1.0
ips. According to extensive research by the U.S. Bureau of Mines
and others, particle velocities below 0.5 ips effectively eliminate
the possibility of any structural damage.

All airblast readings of the remaining records, a measurement
of the atmospheric pressure wave (overpressure) with units in psi
or dBL, were below the maximum allowable limit of 128 dBL specified
in VMC's mining permit and well below the U. S. Bureau of Mine's
recognized level of 154 dBL (0.5 psi) for prevention of glass
breakage. A key point worth noting is that glass breakage.occurs
at much lower levels of overpressure than structural damage, such
as cracking plaster.
Thank you for your interest and patience in this matter.
Hopefully we have answered your concerns adequately. If you should
have any additional questions or concerns please advise at (919)

The review has been completed on the analysis of Shot No. 10
submitted for the January 27, 1997 blast at the North Quarry. This
office agrees with your findings that a malfunction of the
seismograph caused the unusually high reading. I have already
notified the complainant, Ms. Lisa Hill, of our findings.
Thank you for your continued cooperation.

All records submitted were checked and ran through Blast II
Program.
No violations were found except for the Blast No. 10. A letter
was sent to VMC on May 7, 1997 requesting a detailed analysis. A
response was received by this office on May 13, 1997.
Mr. James C. Henline, Jr. of VMC believes the high readings were
a result of a faulty machine. This office agrees with his
findings as the wave forms are not typical.
Letters will be sent to the permittee and complainant confirming
the findings.

Dear Mrs. Hill:
You recently received a copy of a letter addressed to Vulcan Materials Company from
Judith Wehner with the State of North Carolina, Department of Land Quality Section,
referencing her review and findings of several shot records. In this letter, she mentioned
that one Shot #10 included a seismograph recording that revealed an unusually high
airblast reading of 154 db. This notice prompted Vulcan to respond to the State's
findings. I have attached a copy of a letter that was sent to the State by a representative
of the company that conducts blasting activities for me ,
As noted, we had been experiencing some problems with this particular seismograph. The
unit had been serviced and was being tested the day of the high reading against a more
sophisticated unit. That unit, which is periodically calibrated, revealed an airblast reading
of 120 db which is well within our permit limit of 128 db.
Again, as mentioned in my letter to you of March 11, 1997,1 sincerely hope you and Mr.
Hill accept my invitation to visit our quarry in the near future. If you have any questions,
you my contact me at any time at [phone].
I look forward to vour visit.
Sincerely,

Re: Vulcan's Blast #10
January 27, 1997
Dear Ms. Wehner.
When shot #10 was pulled January 27", Vulcan had two seismographs placed side -by -
side. Seismograph number three is a SSU2000DK manufactured by GeoSonics, Inc.,
Warrendale, PA. Seismograph number two is a small GPS-3 manufactured by
Environmental Technologies, which is no longer in business. During the latter part of
1996, Vulcan was experiencing problems with the GPS-3. Vulcan located a company
named OZA Inspections in Lewiston, NY which would work on the GPS-3. The GPS-3
was sent to them for repairs.. Vulcan had just received the GPS-3 back from OZA in early
January 1997, The 2000DK is sent yearly to GeoSonics where it is checked thoroughly
and calibrated.
Having no prior experience with OZA Inspections, the accuracy of the machine was still in
question by Vulcan. Therefore, prior to using this unit as a stand alone, Vulcan, knowing
that the 2000DK is a very accurate and dependable seismograph, placed the two
seismographs side -by -side to test the accuracy of the repairs. The GPS-3 recorded an
airblast of 157db. The 2000DK reading was 120db.
During the shot, the Plant Manager and I watched and saw no unusual movement
occurring that would have caused a high reading. 1 believe that if the shot had truly
produced an air blast reading of 157db, there would have been several complaints from the
neighbors. There were no complaints on that day.

Vulcan and I would welcome any monitoring the state would like to do, including placing
some of their own seismographs out in the area. I feel this would show that Vulcan does
maintain compliance with all limits of blasting.
A copy of the certificate of calibration is attached for your information.
Please contact me if you have any questions or if I can be of any assistance. My office
number with Piedmont Explosives is 1-800-421-181 1, ext. 120. My home phone number

Dear Ms. Jones:
..The review has been completed on the shot records you
previously submitted for the October 25 and 29, 1996 blasts and the
January and February, 1996 blasts at the North Quarry.
The blasting records for Shot No. 10 included a seismograph
recording that indicated an unusually high airblast of 154 dBl.
Pleasefindenclosed.a.copy of the record. Because this is above
the 128 dBl limit established in Vulcan materials Company's mining
permit, please provide this office with a detailed analysis of this
reading, including recommendations that will prevent future
readings such as this from occurring.
In regards to the remaining records submitted, your company
has been found to be in compliance with the blasting requirements
of your mining permit.
I look forward to your response concerning this matter. If
you have any questions, please contact me at [phone]. Thank
you for your continued cooperation.

This office recently received a second complaint directed at
blasting practices conducted at thelabove referenced quarry.
According to the complainant, Ms. Lisa Hill, cracks have appeared
in her walls and foundation.
As provided in the miningpermitfor this site, you are
requested to provide to this officelduplicate copies of all shot
records related to the blast conducted in January and February,
` 1997 including any seismograph records made.
I have received the additional.lshot records requested for
the dates of October 25 and 29. 1996. A review of these records
will be completed in the near future and you will be advised of
our finaings. I
I look forward to receiving the requested information in the
near future. Your continued cooperation will he appreciated.

RE: Blasting Complaint -October 29,19%

Dear Ms. Wehne[
RECEIVED
DEHNR
Nf1V I � I99(i
LAND QUALITY SECTIO14
Per your request, enclosed in duplicate are blasting and seismograph records for October 29,
1996, including one shot prior to and after that blast. After a review of the blasting reports and
seismographs, all blasts recorded were well below the allowable limit.
Ms. Lisa Hill has resided at her present residence since 1991, Ms. Hill's property is exactly .6
miles south of North's pit and has never filed a blasting complaint with us. Roger Bullins of North
Quarry and Ms. Hill discussed her complaint. She has agreed to allow Vulcan to setup its
seismograph onto her property to monitor a series of shots.
Mr. Bullins also got in touch with Richard Hemming, discovering that Mr. Hemming had no
knowledge of the complaint they had been called into your office. Mr. Hemming's son who now
lives with him made the call. Mr. Hemmings residence is approximately 1.2 miles northeast of the
pit. Vulcan has never received a blasting complaint from Mr. Hemming who was surprised to
hear that we had received notice of complaint since he has never had a problem with us.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Mr. Hemmings said that a blast about 9:15 a.m. was quite severe. He
felt the blast and then shock waves about 5-10 seconds after the
blast occurred. I
Ms. Hill also complained about a blast around 9 a.m. She said she
heard the blast and then felt alivibration like a seismic tremor. she
grew up in California and the vibration was like the tremors that
occurr before earthquakes. She,Icomplained of cracks developing over
time in the windows, house and backyard pool.
In addition to your review of North Quarry's monitoring data, I
request that we set up our seismograph in Ms. Hill's yard.
