Please find attached for your review a copy of the mining permit modification request for the above

Please review this information and advise as to the probability of this operation having unduly
adverse effect on wildlife and freshwater fisheries (G.S. 74-51 (2)). Please respond by February 24, 2022 so
that we may complete our review of this request within our statutory time limits.
As is the case in our review of all mining permit applications, renewals and modifications, this office
will carefully review all proposed erosion and sediment control measures to ensure that they are sufficient
to restrain erosion and off -site sedimentation. However, any comments your agency can provide
regarding effects on wildlife and freshwater fisheries would be greatly appreciated. If your staff wishes to
perform a site inspection, it is recommended that they contact the person submitting this request to set up
a convenient date and time. Also, please send a copy of your comments to the person noted in the
