Dear Mr. Dudley:
NORTH CAROLINA
Environmental Quality
December 17, 2021
We have reviewed the application your company submitted for the referenced mine site. In order for this office to
complete its review of the referenced project in accordance with G.S. §74-50 and §74-51 of the Mining Act of 1971,
please provide the additional or revised information in accordance with the following comments:
Please clarify the width of the unexcavated buff around the perimeter of the excavation. There is a note
that states there is a 25' unexcavated buffer, however the perimeter berm detail cross section shows a
50' unexcavated buffer.
2. There are wetlands and a blue line stream that appear on the USGS topographic map south west of the
excavation. Please show these features on the mine map and provide the appropriate buffer as
necessary.
Please note, this office may request additional information, not included in this letter, as the mining application
review progresses. Be advised that our review cannot be completed until all of the items listed above have been
fully addressed.
