May 24, 2021
TO: Mr. Adam Parr
NCDEMLR-Land Quality Section
FROM: Gabrielle Chianese
Ground Water Management Branch
Division of Water Resources
SUBJECT: Comments on the Mining Permit Modification Request for:
Rogers Nursery & Landscaping, Inc.
Rogers Pit#2
Beaufort County
Please find attached a copy of the mining permit modification request for the above referenced
project.
The Rogers Pit# 2 located in Beaufort County does not appear to have an unduly adverse effect
on ground water supplies since there is no dewatering proposed on site. However, if the mine
starts to withdraw 10,000 gpd to 100,000 gpd of water, they will need to register their water
withdrawals with the Central Coastal Plain Capacity Use Area (CCPCUA) program, and if this
mine starts to withdraw 100,000 gpd or more of water, they will need to obtain a CCPCUA water
withdrawal permit.
A Central Coastal Plain Capacity Use Area (CCPCUA) water withdrawal permit must be
obtained from the Division of Water Resources if the withdrawal exceeds 100,000 gallons per
day and occurs in Beaufort, Carteret, Craven, Duplin, Edgecombe, Greene, Jones, Lenoir,
Martin, Onslow, Pamlico, Pitt, Washington, Wayne, or Wilson County.
If you have further questions please contact the Division of Water Resources at [phone]
or send correspondence to 1611 Mail Service Center, Raleigh NC 27699-1611 161 for go online
to www.ncwater.org/CCPCUA.
