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, St. 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, 2017 — 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
$501month 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 capon 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
Werner, Assistant State Mining Specialist, or me at [phone].

The Yadkin Quarry located in Yadkin County does not appear to have an unduly adverse effect on ground water
supplies since this facility has previously registered (facility 1D. 0199-0028).
Facilities not in the fifteen county Central Coastal Plain Capacity Use Area are required to register their water
withdrawals in accordance with the North Carolina General Statute G.S. 143-215.22H. This statue 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 statue 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 Aaril I for the previous
yea r,

Land Quality Section 24FROM: Ron Linville, Regional CoordinatorHabitat Conservation Program
DATE: June 16, 2010
SUBJECT: Mining Permit Renewal Application, Vulcan Construction Materials — Yadkin Quarry,
Permit No. 99-06, Yadkin County
This correspondence responds to your request for our review of the referenced mine permit modification.
These comments are provided in accordance with certain provisions of the Mining Act of 1971 (as
amended, 1982; G.S. 7446 through 74-68; 15 NCAC 5) and the North Carolina General Statutes (G.S.
113-131 et seq.).
The mining operation is requesting permit renewal of an existing permitted quarry site that appears to be
inactive. No permit modifications are indicated.
Since the activities proposed are currently permitted, we will not object to the proposed permit
modification with the exception of the proposed planting schedule. The application references use of
non-native plants for revegetation. This mix includes Sericee lespedeza, Tall Fescue, Hulled Common
Bermuda Grass and Rye (grain) in conjunction with fertilizer, liming and mulching. We recommend
using a native piant seed mix. Sericea lespedeza and other non-native Plants should be removed from the
planting schedule. In addition, we do not recommend planting monoculture forests during mine
reclamation.
The following recommendations are provided for your consideration as permit conditions:
1. During any new land clearing activities, woody debris (slash or large trees) removed during
development of the site should be placed along the outer stockpile/compost area construction limits
in the form of brush piles and downed logs to provide cover and nesting habitat for wildlife.
2. Should any stream relocation activities become necessary, relocations should use siato-of-the-art
bioengineering techniques. Any channel relocations and riparian plantings should be planned and
constructed by a company having professional bioengineering stream restoration training and
experience within the state of North Carolina. Clean Water Act 404 permits and 401 certifications

Telephone: [phone] • Fax: [phone]

VCM-Yadkin Quarry, P 99-060 Page 2 0 June 16, 2010
should be obtained from the US Army Corps of Engineers and the NC Division of Water Quality
prior to any channel relocations or impacts. Native riparian plants should be incorporated into
stream relocation buffer zone,. Streambanks should be planted with autochthonous (native) plants
like silky dogwood, rhododendron, dog hobble, mountain pepperbush, paw paw, red maple, silky
willow, tag alder, black willow, sycamore, river birch, or other native woody species. Woody
species selection should be based on riparian plant suitability to geophysical site conditions.
3. Fifty (50) foot undisturbed natural buffers are recommended for intermittent channels and one
hundred (100) loot undisturbed natural buffers should be established for perennial streams.
4. Any stream crossings necessary should provide for aquatic life passage. Bridges are preferred over
culverts and pipes. Culverts 48 inches diameter or larger should be buried a foot into the
streambed. Culverts less than 48 inches diameter should be buried to a depth equal to or greater
than 20% their size to allow for aquatic life passage. These measurements should be based on
natural thalweg depths.
5. Stringent erosion control measures should he installed where soil is disturbed and maintained until
project completion. As appropriate to protect listed species and/or stream classifications, sediment
and erosion control measures may need to meet design standards for sensitive watersheds (15A
NCAC 4B .0024).
6. Native plants are preferred and recommended for revegetation and reclamation activities. Please
see the attached plant recommendations.
7. We recommend that the mine operation consult with professional wildlife biologists with the North

Seed Mixes for Revegetating Disturbed Sites
Basic Mix
Oats (Mar -Jun), Wheat (Jul -Nov), or Rye Grain (Dec -Feb)
1-2 bags I ac
$ 5-10 bag
Red Clover Tri olium rarense
10 Ibs 1 acre
1 $ 3 / lb
Crccpung Red Fescue Fesmca rubra
20 Ibs / acre
1 $ 2-3 1 lb
-The Basic Mix can be sown on disturbed sites in the mountains and upper piedmont year round but
spring or fall seeding will result in a better stand. It is important to use all of the components of the Basic
Mix. The cover crop grain & legume provide rapid green -up while the creeping red fescue is developing.
These components can be obtained locally.
- Grains like oats, wheat, and rye may be sold by weight (pounds) or by volume (bushels).
To simplify things, this mix recommends I — 2 BAGS of grain rather than pounds or bushels. With this
mix, 1 bag or about 50 — 60 Ibs par acre should be adequate for most sites, but where slope or soil
conditions warrant, increase grain amounts to 100 —120 Ibs (use 2 bags).
-The perennial grass will establish within the first year and is the key to good site stabilization. Creeping
red fescue has a wide range of adaptation when used for erosion control along roads and highways; cuts,
fills, and other disturbed areas; and for stream and channel bank stabilization. It thrives in sun or shade,
and is drought -resistant after establishment.
For perm anent seeding of harsh dry sites, Hard Fescue Festuca
10 Ibs / acre
$ 3 / lb
brevi ila (s n. troth h Ua) can be added to the Basic Mix
Application Notes
- Disturbed sites with loose soils can usually be sown without extensive seedbed preparation if seeded as
soon as the other work is completed.
- Where necessary, prepare seedbed with conventional farm equipment (tractor and disk), or the soil
surface can be bladed and then tracked with a bulldozer, Hydro -seeding can be used with the Basic Mix
for slopes where equipment access is difficult.
- Red fescue is adapted to sandy and acid soils so extensive soil amendments are usually not needed. On
poor and subsoil sites, a low nitrogen fertilizer such as 5-10-10 may be required.
If required, apply any necessary soil amendments, then drill or broadcast the seed mix.
- The larger cover crop grains can be sown separately first and covered lightly to prevent loss of seed
from wildlife such as turkeys and doves.
-The rest of the seed mix should then be sown, but not covered with soil. It is better to firm the small seed
into the soil than in try to cover it.
- Culti-pack conventional seedbeds to ensure good seed -to -soil contact. Tracked sites will fill in on their
own from rainfall

VCM-Yadkin Quarry, # 99-060 Page 4 0 June 16, 2010
- Apply straw mulch at a minimum of 15 bales per acre to help enhance soil moisture as well as hold the
soil in place until the seed germinates. Use higher rates as site conditions warrant.
- If the site calls for it, natural fiber matting is recommended over plastic matting or matting that contains
strands of plastic that can entrap small animals.
- Monitor the site until the perennial grass component is fully established. Mature stands of the Basic Mix
are short-statured and will not require mowing. The seeded mix should persist for many years, but will
eventually yield to developing successional species.
- Native wildflowers and grasses can be added to the Basic Mix to beautify and diversify the site, and
provide food and cover for wildlife such as deer, turkey, quail, and songbirds. The following lists contain
native species that are reasonably priced as natives go. The easy, proven performers are listed at the top of
the tables, with the more challenging species towards the bottom. These seeds can be ordered from a
reputable seed dealer. For sources, refer to Wildlife Seed List at
http://www.ncwildlifc.or Wildlife Species Con/WSC WPM.htm .
- Mixes with native seed can be culti-packed or tracked in with a bulldozer; hydro -seeding is apparently
not recommended. Mixes with mainly wildflowers can be sown in early fall.
Note - when addin- native Pnnirrm arass seed; sow the mix in late fall, winter, or early spring to subject
the seed to cool, moist soil conditions necessary to break seed dormancy. Sowing during the warmer
months may delay Panicum germination until the following year, and some seed may be lost -in the
interim. '
- For information on each native species listed here, visit http://plants.usda.gov/; type in the scientific
name in the search box. Note - adding natives will increase the height of the resulting stands, providing
good wildlife habitat. Frequent mowing destroys food & cover and is not recommended. Mow once every
few years, in late winter, only if absolutely necessary to remove encroaching woody vegetation.

Native Fruiting Trees & Shrubs
Use for planting around the perimeter of Piedmont stormwater ponds.
These fast-growing natives will provide food and cover for songbirds. Trees and shrubs can be
grouped according to mature size or planted randomly at a minimum of 100 per acre
(approximately 20 feet x 20 feet). Select at least four species so that no more than 25% of the
plantings will be of a single species.
Large Deciduous Trees her t 40-50 feet space 20-25 feet apart)
Sugarberry Celtis laevigata
Red Mulberry Morus rubra
Small Trees and Large Shrubs-f height 15-30 feet, space 10-15 feet apart
Wax Myrtle Myrica cerifera
A d
Devils Walking Stick Aralia spinosa — may spread by rhizomes
Small Shrubs (height to 10 feet, space 10 feet apart)
Silkcv Dogwood Cornus amomum
Elderberry Sambucus canadensis
Application notes
- These species are adapted to moist well -drained soil, but will not survive in saturated sites;
plant around, not in, pond.
- Plant dormant (bareroot) seedlings December thru March.
- Balled and burlapped (B&B) plants can be set out any time except in summer.
- Potted plant material can be planted at any time as long as the plants are watered adequately
after they are set out.
- Use of hydro -gel particles such as Terra -Sorb can improve first year survival.
- Super triple phosphate can improve survival by stimulating root growth Do not use any other
fertilizer in the hole.
- Refer to attached sheet `Planting T rees and Shrubs' — ullow recornniendations to ensure best
survival of woody plant material.
- It is expected that 90% of the woody plants planted on the site will be present and in good
growing condition after five years.
The NC Cooperative Extension Service can provide a list of local nurseries and growers. For
mail order sources, refer to `Native Fruit and Mast Producing Trees and Shrubs' at

Please find enclosed six copies of the currently approved Mine Map and Reclamation Plan. Also
enclosed are one original and five copies of the Mining Permit Application for Permit Renewal. A
check is enclosed in the amount of $1,000 for payment of the required processing fee. This
application requests that the permit be renewed for 10 years as currently permitted, with no
modifications. The original site development was performed in the late 1980's and conforms to
the approved mine map. We trust you will concur that this application fully complies with the
requirements of the North Carolina Mining Act.
As the Land Quality Section is aware, mining activity at the facility is temporarily inactive; there
are no plans to activate operations at this site in the foreseeable future.
Please contact me at [phone] should you have any questions or comments.

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 outside of the permitted
area such as any dwelling house, church, school,'public building, or commercial or
institutional building. If vibrationlairblast limits are exceeded, the operator shall
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 have been 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 airbiast reading if the circumstances justify verbal approval_
Failure to report will constitute a per - it violati n.
C. 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 permitted and guarded area, or the
level in Item A. above is 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:
I. A thorough investigation as to the . cause(s) of the incident shall be
conducted.
2. 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.

Matt:
I have reviewed the materials submitted £or renewal of the subject
mining permit. As stated in the application, the site has been covered
under state-NPDES general permit no. NCGD20D00, holding Certificate of
Coverage NCG020103. The 020000 series permits technically expired on
08/31/97, but due to negotiations between DWQ and the N.C. Aggregates
Association, the new General Permit did not become effective until
12/01/99. New Certificates of coverage have not yet been mailed to
permittees, though this is expected to be accomplished in the near
future. As Vulcan made application for Permit renewal on 06/18/97, prior
to Permit expiration, we consider them to be legally operating under the

SUBJECT: Mining Permit Renewal Application for Vulcan Materials Co., Yadkin Quarry —
Permit No. 99-06, Yadkin county
Vulcan Materials has requested a renewal of the existing mining permit. We arc
informed that the quarry is inactive and that some mining may be anticipated in the future. As
this is an existing mine operation and no modifications to the permit have been requested, the
North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission does not object to the renewal of the permit.
The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission would recommend that Vulcan
consider reclaiming the mine if it continues to be inactive, We appreciate the opportunity to
provide comments whenever reclamation of the mine is considered.
These comments are provided in accordance with certain provisions of the Mining Act of
1971 (as amended, 1982; G.S. 74-46 through 74-68: 15 NCAC 5) and the North Carolina
General Statutes (G.S. 113-131 el seq.). Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment

Dear Mr. Davis:
Find enclosed four (4) copies of our application, mine and reclamation maps and a processing fee check in
the amount of 15( nn for the renewal of the above permit. Note the application does not include pages IS
through 18 as they are not required.
It is our opinion that the renewal of the existing permit and continued operation of the mine will not invoke
any of the seven denial criteria listed under G.S. 74-51 of the Mining Act of 1971.
Please note under separate cover, we have requested a modification of this and all our mine permits
reflecting a company name change to become effective January I, 2000. Feel free to process these requests
simultaneously should such offer any advantage to the Department. I hope you will find this submittal
complete and acceptable. Should you have any questions or require additional information, please contact

Dear Mr. Davis
Find enclosed four (4) copies of our application, mine and reclamation maps and a processing fee check in
the amount of $500.00 for the renewal of the above permit. Note the application does not include pages 15
through 18 as they are not required.
It is our opinion that the renewal ofthe existing permit and continued operation of the mine will not invoke
any of the seven denial criteria listed under G.S. 74-51 of the Mining Act of 1971.
Please note under separate cover, we have requested a modification of this and all our mine permits
reflecting a company name change to become effective January I, 2000. Feel free to process these requests
simultaneously should such offer any advantage to the Department. I hope you will find this submittal
complete and acceptable. Should you have any questions or require additional information, please contact
me.

Dear Mr. Bryson:
This letter is in response to your request dated July 14,
1992 to modify the type of high wall barrier specified -in your
mining permit. The three strands of barbed wire fence, 4 feet
high, as indicated on the construction detail submitted with your
request, is hereby approved as a temporary barrier. However, once
a permanent, non -progressing face has been established, a more
substantial; permanent highwall barrier; such as a chain link
fence, will be required before your company can be released from
its reclamation obligations for this site.
Please attach this approval to your existing mining permit,
including a copy of the construction detail you submitted with your
request.
Please advise Mr. Tony Sample at [phone] if you should
have any questions on the above.
Sincerely,
Charles H. Gardner, P.G., P.E.

Dear Mr. Davis:

We request permission to stop monitoring the wells at the above reference
site. Yadkin Quarry has very little if any fluctuations in static water levels in these
wells. Also, there has not been any blasting or discharge from the pit since
November of 1992. When we recommence blasting or discharging water, we will
resume monitoring these wells.
Unless we hear from you in the next 2 weeks, we will assume that this is
acceptable to you.
