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, SL 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
$50/month 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 cap on 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 meat [phone].

Please find attached a copy of the mining permit renewal request for the above referenced
project.
The Hancock Creek Pit located in Craven County does not appear to have an unduly adverse
effect on ground water supplies since there is no dewatering proposed on site. However, ifthe
mine starts to withdraw 10,000 gpd to 100,000 gpd ol'waler, they will need to register their water
withdrawals 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,
Marlin, Onslow, Pamlico, Pitt, Washington, Wayne, or Wilson County.

Subject: RE: 25-56 DWR REVIEW SHEET 2013
Robert,
This one is just a renewal, but the application makes note of a new permittee versus an existing permittee, so I noted a
few things. First, the riparian buffer )or undisturbed buffer, as shown on the plan sheets) appears to be incorrectly
drawn down at the lower end of Deep Branch, where it nears Hancock Creek. It's hard to tell exactly where the permit
boundary is, as it's not labeled, so I couldn't say for sure that There is no work proposed in the buffer, as there is a
nearby 125' undisturbed buffer, so it's more a clerical/administrative note, but it's also in an area that is likely wet. On
that topic, there are likely more wetlands present on -site, but again since it'sjust a renewal, I just noted that there were
likely wetlands on -site, and that a delineation could be useful. The applicant claims that there are no plans to
discharge/dewater, although there are culverts draining into the existing pond on -site (along Hancock Creek) where all
of the waters would appear to collect. Finally, the "new permittee" proposes to fill areas with clean concrete, which I
don't think is any longer considered a beneficial fill, especially below the water table, while there is also being shown on
the plans existing asphalt piles that have no indication of where they are going.
To summarize, there's just a lot of information missing, but it's an application for renewal of what's likely been
previously permitted.

Judy,
Attached is the DAQ comment sheet.
1- The renewal package did not have the Division of Waste management application or approval permit for this
mine. I recommend that DWM permit for this site.
2- Not sure why DAQ didn't require a Permit for crushing and processing activities on this site.
If you need anything or have questions let me know.

RE: Requesting Extension to Rcnmv Hancock Creek Mine permit 4 25-56
Dear Mrs. Boyer
East Coast .Abatement Co Inc would like to request an extension to renew the Iiancock Creek Mine.
Craven County— permit N 25-56 for the operation of a sand mine. Our permit expiration date was 2-07-17.
11 was an oversight on my pan for not renewing since we have not been doing any mining activity lot
sometime at this location. I have been current with my yearly storm water fees.
please provide me with the link to download and fill out the necessary paperwork to be completed. Once
completed I will Pedex the paperwork and check directly to your attention.
Thank you for allowing this extension so that I can gather the information needed to
renew this permit.
Sincerely,
Phylli Webb

RE: Hancock Creek Mine Permit Modification
Attachments:
25-56 mod.pdf
Mr. House,
Please see attached —the modification for the Hancock Creek Mine was issued yesterday. The hard copy will go out to
the permittee today, As discussed, we left the bonding at the higher amount to allow more flexibility with respect to
reclamation onsite. Also, as requested, below is the definition of beneficial fill used by the Division of Waste
Management:
15A NCAC 1311 .0562 BENEFICIAL FILL
A permit is not required for beneficial fill activity that meets all of the following conditions:
(1) 1'he fill material consists only of inert debris strictly limited to concrete, brick, concrete block, uncontaminated soil, rock,
and gravel.
(2) The fill activity involves no excavation.
(3) ]'he purpose of the fill activity is to improve land use potential or other approved beneficial reuses.
(4) The fill activity is not exempt from, and must comply with, all other applicable Federal, State, and Local laws, ordinances,
rules, and regulations, including but not limited to zoning restrictions, flood plain restrictions, wetland restrictions, mining
regulations, sedimentation and erosion control regulations. Fill activity shall not contravene groundwater standards.
Please let me know if you have any questions or need anything additional.
Thanks,

Subject: Hancock Creek Mine Permit Modification

Mr. House,
Could you please clarify exactly whafthis modification entails now (since your client is no longer requesting the
dewatering, additional haul road/stream crossing, and overflow berm)?
It appears that it is mostly to update the mine map, to provide for the onsite stockpiling of various materials (including
asphalt, etc.), and to show revised entrances to the two sections of the mine. Are any other changes being requested?
Thanks!

• Re-establshed drainages will need to be ammret and the ropes revegetated to protect them from emeem and \ I
scouring. When drainage's are being re-established, same type of stabilizing structure may be necessary, such as a Z1�
check dam, gabbions. gooterles, or, preferably, a bbtechnical structure.
During reclamation, noise sources would be limited to grading. Following redamaNan, the only other on- or off -site LEGEND,
noise sources would be vehicles and equipment asaacmted with planting and harvesting new ttapa.

GENERAL,
- FERTILIZER RATES SHOWN ARE GENERAL RECOMMENDATION& FREQUENCY AND AMOUNT OF FERTILIZATION
CAN BEST BE DETERMINED THROUGH SITE SPECIFIC SOIL TESTING.
- SATISFACTORY STABILIZATION AND EROSION CONTROL REQUIRES A COMPLETE VEGETATIVE COVER EVEN SMALL
BREACHES IN VEGETATIVE COVER CAN EXPAND RAPIDLY IF LEFT UNATTENDED. A SINGLE HEAVY RAIN IS OFTEN
SUFFICIENT TO GREATLY ENLARGE BARE SPOTS, AND THE LONGER REPAIRS ARE DELAYED THE MORE COSTLY THEY
BECOME. PROMPT ACTION WILL KEEP SEDIMENT LOSS AND REPAIR COST DOWN, NEW SEEDLINGS SHOULD BE
INSPECTED FREQUENTLY AND MAINTENANCE PERFORMED AS NEEDED. IF RILLS AND OULLES DEVELOP THEY MUST BE
FILLED, RE -SEEDED, AND MULCHED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. DIVERSIONS MAY BE NEEDED UNTIL NEW PLANTS TAKE
HOLD.
MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS EXTEND BEYOND THE SEEDING PHASE
WEAK OR DAMAGED SPOTS MUST BE RELINED, FERTILIZED, MULCHED AND RE -SEEDED AS PROMPTLY AS POSSIBLE
REFERTILIZATION MAY BE NEEDED TO MAINTAIN PRODUCTIVE STANDS.

RE: Hancock Creek Mine Permit Modification
I think the bond will need to stay the same, since they are still proposing to fill some/all of the excavation with the
beneficial fill rather than leaving a lake. We have to bond at the higher amount - if my initial look is correct, the bond
will stay the same since the reclamation isn't changing.

Mr. House,
Could you please clarify exactly what this modification entails now (since your client is no longer requesting the
dewatering, additional haul road/stream crossing, and overflow berm)?
It appears that it is mostly to update the mine map, to provide forthe onsite stockpiling of various materials (including
asphalt, etc.), and to show revised entrances to the two sections of the mine. Are any other changes being requested?
Thanks!

Re: Hancock Creek Mine Permit Modification
Permit No. 25-56
Number 6 Township, Craven County, North Carolina
Dear Ms. Rodgers,
The first proposed modification included the dewatering of the pond, a proposed sixteen
(16) foot haul road with a proposed stream crossing and an overflow berm. After an onsite
meeting with the Army Corp of Engineeers and the North Carolina Division of Water Quality
the above proposed items were found to be cost prohibitive. Please find attached the proposed
Bond Application and Mine Reclamation Modification Plan which eliminates the above
referenced items.
Should you require any additional information regarding this project feel free to contact our
office at the above given points of reference.

Hi Ashley,
I spoke with you back on September 26" in regards to the bond and doing an extension to finalize the paperwork for
this mine permit. Please extend the application process for another 180 days if you can. Rick has tried on numerous
attempts to have Victor White with Landmark Engineering to complete the paperwork that you had requested. No
response. Rick has spoke with Rick House in regards to the situation and he has agreed to review and complete the
questions. I will forward all paperwork to Mr. House so that he may start. I would like to verify the last letter that you
mailed to East Coast was 6/15/12. If you will please confirm this then I will forward to Mr. House this week. I have also
just received last week the Annual Reclamation Report. No activity has been going on at this mine during 2012. I know
you aware of this. Should Igo ahead and fill out this report. I cargo by the one we have done in the past? Thank you
for your cooperation in this delayed matter!
Thanks,

Phyllis,
June 15, 2012 does appear to be the date of my last letter.
Please do fill out the Annual Reclamation Report. If no reclamation work or mining has been done in the past year, you
can indicate that. But you do still need to complete the form and mail back.
I will take your extension request to the Division Director, Tracy Davis. He is the only one who can grant an extension
past the 180 days.
Thanks,

Hi Ashley,
I spoke with you back on September 26t° in regards to the bond and doing an extension to finalize the paperwork for
this mine permit. Please extend the application process for another 180 days if you can. Rick has tried on numerous
attempts to have Victor White with Landmark Engineering to complete the paperwork that you had requested. No
response. Rick has spoke with Rick House in regards to the situation and he has agreed to review and complete the
questions. I will forward all paperwork to Mr. House so that he may start. I would like to verify the last letter that you
mailed to East Coast was 6/15/12. If you will please confirm this then I will forward to Mr. House this week. I have also
just received last week the Annual Reclamation Report. No activity has been going on at this mine during 2012. 1 know
you aware of this. Should I go ahead and fill out this report. I can go by the one we have done in the past? Thank you
for your cooperation in this delayed matter!
Thanks,

We have reviewed the modification request your company submitted for the referenced
mine site. However, the following information is needed to continue processing your
application:
Please clarify whether you wish to change the permittee name or transfer the
permit. The mine permit (and associated reclamation bond) are currently in the
name of "East Coast Abatement Company, Inc." However, the most recent mine
map submitted lists the company name as "Tateway, LLC."
If you wish to transfer the mine permit to Tateway, LLC, please submit a revised
completed page one of the application, Land Entry Agreement, and letters from
company officers of each company requesting the permit transfer. All of these
pages must have original signatures. Note that a new reclamation bond will also
be required to be posted in the name of the new permittee. A transfer checklist is
enclosed for your convenience.
If you wish to keep the mine permit in the name East Coast Abatement
Company, Inc., then please revise the mine maps to show the correct company
name.

2. As previously requested, revise the mine map to clearly label the permit
boundary. This may either be done with arrows and labels, or by symbol and
label in the legend.
3. As previously requested, revise the mine map to provide additional erosion and
sedimentation control for the construction of the haul road and stream crossing
(please show these on the blow-up detail on Sheet C2). Clarify what the surface
of the road will be (dirt, gravel, etc.). Note that if you intend to keep this as a dirt
road, then additional erosion and sedimentation control may be necessary to
prevent any sediment from washing down toward the creek/stream or any
wetland areas. Will side slopes of the road be vegetated?
4. Please also note that erosion and sedimentation control measures should be
kept out of undisturbed buffers (the exception to this would be during the
construction of the road/stream crossing section which will require temporary
measures in the buffers until the crossing and road are stabilized).
5. As previously requested, revise the mine map to change the label on the "limits
of disturbance." This is slightly confusing, as these areas are not truly the limits
of disturbance for the site, just the limits of additional disturbance associated with
this modification. Something similar to "Additional Disturbed Area" or "Additional
Limits of Disturbance" is suggested.
6. The modification maps are showing a utility easement through the site, and
several areas of proposed disturbance within the easement. As previously
requested, provide proof that the utility company has no objection to any
activities proposed within the easement.
7. As previously noted, it appears that 401/404 permits will be required by the
Division of Water Quality and the USACE. Please acknowledge in writing that
you understand that these additional permits are needed and that you will
provide proof of all necessary permits to the Land Quality Section prior to the
initiation of any disturbances related to the construction of the interior haul road
and associated stream crossing.
8. You have advised that it had been determined that a complete wetland
delineation for the site was not required. If a wetland delineation has been done
for the area in question (new haul road/stream crossing), please provide us a
copy of that delineation.

Please be advised that our review cannot be completed until all of the items listed
above have been fully addressed. In addition, please note the Land Quality Section may

As required by 15A NCAC 5B.0013, you are hereby advised that you have 180 days
from the date of your receipt of this letter to submit all of the requested information. If you are
unable to meet this deadline and wish to request additional time, you must submit information,
in writing, to the Director clearly indicating why the deadline can not be met and request that
an extension of time be granted. If an extension of time is not granted, a decision will be made
to grant or deny the mining permit based upon the information currently in the Department's

Hello,
I sent the consultant the attached ideas, as guidance on 5/25/2012, and have yet received an updated version. I believe
that we are not far from approval of an O&M Plan. However, I never heard that the PCN was submitted for the 404/401
fill proposed within the Deep Creek buffer for the haul road between the 2 mine sections. The changes that I am looking
for are to bring consistency to the 0&M Plan as required by the ki SW/W W NPDES Permit.
When I receive additional information, I will provide an update. We should be close to having an approvable 0&M Plan
(with the consultant's participation). After acceptance of an C&M Plan, I will supply a positive recommendation toward
the issuance of the COC. However, without the 401 authorization (which was explained to the owner onsite as being a
required process), I do not recommend the issuance of DLR permit modification.
Please let me know if you need additional information or find that the 401/Buffer Authorization has been issued.

Operations and M e Plan
The purpose of this Operations and MeiRtemmce Plan (O&M Plan) is to provide The operators of the
Hancock Creek Mine with a manual that will serve as a guide for efficient operation of
the mine and provide the ability to recognize any adverse impacts of de -watering operations, should they
occur. This O&M Plan is intended to address the following issues:
De -watering Discharge 7
- Groundwater Monitoring
- Wetiand/Surface Moni rjr,���,�,
Stormwater and Mi ermit Requi meats,
Operating Record.and Record Keeping Requirements.
Site Background p 6
The site is located off of NC Highway 101 in Craven County. The.site also borders Hancock Creekts-r'
Although the mine has been in operation for some time, currently, the site is not being actively mined due to
existing economic conditions and demand . There are two mine areas in the site, a Western Mine Area
(14.42 Acres) and n Eastern Mine Area (18.28 acres), These two rnine areas are separated by ae--�� 1�Ca +'� L t� t
c5iw-tributaq'� ancock Creek. The eastern mine area has two pits that have been mined for fill
material. The smaller is approximately 13.000 sq. ft. and the larger being just over 60,000 sq. ft. in surface
area. The water elevation in these mine areas is approximately 8 to 12-feet below the adjacent existing
grades. Also present in the Eastern Mine Area are numerous stockpiles of materials. These Stockpiles
include areas of dirt, topsoil, sand and gravel, as well as area of brick concrete and asphalt. None of the latter
three types of materials are processed on site1with the exception of crushing, and are for resale,as recycled
materials. The Western Mine Area has one existing mining pit, which is approximately 55.000 sq, ft. in
surface area. Any future de -watering and mining of these areas will only extend to a depth of 18-20 feet
below the existing adjacent land surface, which will minimize any adverse groundwater impacts.
Excavation is performed in increments as necessary to supply demand for fill materials for clients. De-
watering of the excavation only occurs intermittently as necessary to perform active excavation.
Excavated material is temporarily st�ckpiied in the stockpile area and, after adequate
drainage, is sold and transported ofAsitefor use.
In accordance with the approved mining permit, as the final edges of the excavation pit are
completed, excavation equipment operators will ensure that the final surface slopes, (both above and
below the water surface), comply with the specified criteria. A free settling slope will be
maintained on the active mining face until final excavation is complete. Warning signs shall be placed on, all
sides of the excavation area.
In the active mining area, land disturbing activities are accomplished such that all stormwater runoff
are directed into the mining pit. Drainage from stock pile areas gravity flow into the mining pits directly, or to a
Swale collection system, wnichdempties into the larger mining pit via 15 inch culverts. Any de err f o f
pumping discharges i �� ' ! I p g g f fe,�before emptyincl into the larger mining pit,}+ ode Qti c
watering will %ef be discharged except to a mining pit that has sufficient capacity to handle thN inflow while
maintaining proper freeboard, where it can infiltrate back into the groundwater. �+ E7�
A.P
5 �'0' { �:

Hancock Greek Mine
Operation and Maintenanco Plon
Based on pump curve data, it is estimated that the maximum discharge rate for the
de -watering operation at the pit is approximately 1,000 gpm. Based on a pump run time of 8 hours per
day this equates to 480,000 gallons per day. It is likely that discharge rates per day will be less as the
pumps will only be used intermittently as demand for material warrants. Withdrawn water
from the smaller pit in the Eastern Mine Area is pumped to an energy dissipation swale before
ultimately being discharged into the larger pit in the Eastern Mine Area. Where it will infiltrate back into
the groundwater.

Monitoring form i;, attached, The qualitative inspection monitoring form is to be completed weekly and
during any storm event greater than 0.10 inches and will be kept on file on site. If no discharge occurs
during that period, (which is expected, given the pumping rates, pump run times and receiving pit size),
the Form shall be filled out as "no flow,"
D-e watering Discharge
If a meter is present it should be read and recorded to document discharge rates. If there is no meter
present to monitor discharge rates from the smaller mining pit to the adjacent pit,
the discharge shall be estimated based on the de -watering pumps performance curve, This, coupled
with run times recorded from the hour meter at the pump shall be used to determine discharge volume,
along with the dates and limes the de -watering pump is in operation.
1 Groundwater Monitoring
If in order to monitor the effects of pumping of the surficial aquifer on the surrounding area,
monitoring wells may be installed, based on the infrequency of pu nping and pumping rates, the wells
are not.proposed at this time. If in the future they are required the hall be installed in accordance
with all applicable rules and regulations, located both horizontally and vertically to State Plane
coordinates and NAVD 88 elevation respectively. Water levels in the wells would then be
measured from the top of the PVC casing monthly and recorded on the weekly inspection checklist,
wetlands/Surface water Monitoring
The wetland areas as well as surface waters.in proximity to the mining pils shall be visually
inspected for signs of vegetative stress or abnormality, and water level and flow within the tributary to
Hancock Creek shall be measured on a weekly basic. All observations from the weekly wetland and
surface water inspections shall be recorded on the weekly inspection form.

Stormwater analytical monitoring shall be conducted at the overflow spillway se4i nnualEy during a �Y � �r s
representative storm event or mine de -watering that causes discharge. If no discharge occurs, the State 4
will be notified semi-annually that no discharge has occurred- If required, samples for Settleable
Solids and Total Suspended Solids shall be collected and sent to an offsite laboratory for
analysis. Field measurements of turbidity shall also be collected at the outfall during these
events. Total Rainfall, Event Duration, and Total Flow shall also be recorded on the
Stormwater Discharge Outfall (5DO) Qualitative Inspection Monitoring form. Semi-annual
analytical data and rainfall data will be recorded on a Discharge Monitoring Form and kept on
file on site in a secure area, If any pa eter benchmark is exceeded for a semi-annual
event, a Stormwater Exceedence DMorm will be forwarded to the Regional DWQ office
within 30 days of receipt of the analytical data. If required due to a discharge, analytical results for the semi-
annual events will be compiled in an Annual Discharge Monitoring Form for submittal to the Central DWQ
office by March i of the following year.
Semi-annual stormwater samples shall be collected between January 1 - June 30 and July I -
December 31, with a minimum of 60 days between sample:,.
It? addition to the semi-annual stormwater monitoring, quarterly analytical sampling must be conducted at
the outfall to monitor general effluent quality from the de -watering activities, should a discharge occur.
Samples are to be collected and analyzed for pH, Settleable Solids, Total Suspended Solids,
and Turbidity. Total de -watering volume for the.date of sample collection must also be recorded.
Quarterly effluent analytical data shall be recorded on a Discharge Monitoring Form and shall be kept on site.
However, if any parameter limit is exceeded, or a violation is found for any event, an Effluent Exceedence
DMR form will be forwarded to the Regional DWQ office within 30 days of receipt of the analytical data.
Analytical results for the quarterly events will be compiled in an Annual Discharge Monitoring Form for
submittal to the Central DWQ office by March 1 of the following year.

Thom,
I just got a resubmittal in for the Hancock Creek Mine in Craven County. I see in our file that DWQ did not object to our
issuing the mod, but since he sent extra copies I wanted to route one to you. They have also submitted a copy of the
O&M plan. Could you review and confirm whether everything they've submitted is ok with DWQ?
I've attached the old version of the DWQ review sheet in case you want to use it. But email comments would be fine,
too, since this is just a resubmit. The hard copy of the submittal should be on its way to you.

Project Narrative

(Revised May I, 2012)
RECEIVED
MAY 16 2Ui2
LAND QUALITY SECTION
The above referenced project is an active mine which is located at 1521 Highway 101 in
Havelock, Craven County, North Carolina.
The purpose of this project and submittal is as follows:
1.) To provide the North Carolina Department of Environment & Natural Resources with a
site map of the mine area, including showing stockpile areas on site, (these stockpiles will
not be used as beneficial fill.).
2.) To request that these stockpile areas be allowed as part of the Mining Permit
Modification, It is important to note that there will is no "processing" of materials onsite
with the possible exception of crushing, (concrete, asphalt, brick), prior to stockpiling.
These materials are stockpiled for resale only as recycled materials. As stated above these
recycled materials will not be used as beneficial fill in any mine reclamation activities.
3.) To file a Mining Permit Modification package with Land Quality for proposed
disturbance of three areas totaling 1.49 acres of disturbance with in the existing mine
property. These area are as follows:
A.) A disturbed area of 49,213 square feet for a proposed earthen interior haul road
connecting the 2 mining areas. This is to allow heavy equipment, Excavators,
Bulldozers, etc. to be moved between the 2 mining areas with out being loaded on
a flatbed trailer and towed in order to be moved between the 2 mining areas,
utilizing NC Highway 101. This disturbance will also have a stream crossing as
shown on the attached plans. Please advise on any other required permits from
other agencies to ensure that prior to construction of the haul road, all necessary
permits are obtained.
B.) A disturbed area of 15,863 square feet to provide an emergency overflow spillway
for an existing area of impounded water associated with the mine. This area
currently has no means of preventing overtopping during extreme storms, such as
a hurricane with the exception of infiltration into the groundwater. The proposed
emergency spillway will incorporate Rip -Rap and filter fabric.

0
The following are responses to the items detailed in your letter of August 29, 201 1:
1.) This has been revised on the mine map. The permitted area is listed as 48.85 Acres, and
the affected area is listed as 35.97 Acres. The difference between this number and what
we had discussed is the inclusion of the 1.23 acres for the proposed interior haul road.
2.) Construction entrances have been added at each entrance onto NC Highway 101.
3.) Revised/Corrected on Mine Map
4.) Revised/Corrected on Mine Map
5.) Revised/Corrected on Mine Map, (this was originally done to agree with what was filled
out on a previous Mining Permit Modification Form).
6.) Added detail and cross-section along with a profile of proposed haul road to Drawings.
7.) Berms are installed and vegetated as shown, and furthermore will not be disturbed during
either existing or proposed mining activities.
8.) Request made on previous page of Revised Project Narrative.
9.) Not Applicable as the level spreader has been removed as per conversation with Mr.
Thom Edgerton. The Emergency spillway as now shown is only to prevent uncontrolled
overtopping during a severe storm, (hurricane)event. No overtopping would occur during
any de -watering activities, as a minimum freeboard of two feet from the low point of the
berm top would not even be approached during any de -watering activities.
10.) Added on Mine Map and detail shown on sheet C2.
11.) See attached Operation and Monitoring Plan.
12.) Mr. Webb is currently working with Mr. Thom Edgerton of the Division of Water Quality
to coordinate all additional necessary permits, (404/401, de -watering, etc.).
13.) Mr. Webb has meet with Mr. Thom Edgerton and Mr. Roberto Sheller of the Division of
Water Quality on site. It is my understanding that Mr. William Wescott of USACOE was
unable to attend this meeting. I do believe that Mr. Edgerton has spoken with Mr.
Wescott about the project. In conversations with Mr. Edgerton, the proposed project
should have no complication working though the 404/401 permit process, and a complete
delineation of he property was unnecessary. Please advise if this is required for the
mining modification permitting process.

Hancock Creek Mir4J •
Operations and Maintenance Plan
The purpose of this Operations and Maintenance Plan (O&M Plan) is to provide The operators of the
Hancock Creek Mine with a manual that will serve as a guide for efficient operation of
the mine and provide the ability to recognize any adverse impacts of de -watering operations, should they
occur. This O&M Plan is intended to address the following issues:
- De -watering Discharge
- Groundwater Monitoring
- Wetland/Surface Monitoring,
- Stormwater and Mining Permit Requirements,
- Operating Record and Record Keeping Requirements.

Site Background LAND QUALITY SECTION
The site is located off of NC Highway 101 in Craven County. The site also borders Hancock Creek.
Although the mine has been in operation for some time, currently, the site is not being actively mined due to
existing economic conditions and demand. There are two mine areas in the site, a Western Mine Area
(14.42 Acres) and an Eastern Mine Area (18.28 acres). These two mine areas are separated by an
unnamed tributary of Hancock Creek. The eastern mine area has two pits that have been mined for till
material. The smaller is approximately 13,000 sq. ft. and the larger being just over 60,000 sq. ft. in surface
area. The water elevation in these mine areas is approximately 8 to 12 feet below the adjacent existing
grades. Also present in the Eastern Mine Area are numerous stockpiles of materials. These Stockpiies
include areas of dirt, topsoil, sand and gravel, as well as area of brick concrete and asphalt. None of the latter
three types of materials are processed on site with the exception of crushing, and are for resale as recycled
materials. The Western Mine Area has one existing mining pit, which is approximately 55,000 sq. ft. in
surface area. Any future de -watering and mining of these areas will only extend to a depth of 18-20 feet
below the existing adjacent land surface, which will minimize any adverse groundwater impacts.
Excavation is performed in increments as necessary to supply demand for fill materials for clients. De -
watering of the excavation only occurs intermittently as necessary to perform active excavation.
Excavated material is temporarily stockpiled in the stockpile area and, after adequate
drainage, is sold and transported of site for use.
In accordance with the approved mining permit, as the final edges of the excavation pit are
completed, excavation equipment operators will ensure that the final surface slopes, (both above and
below the water surface), comply with the specified criteria. A free settling slope will be
maintained on the active mining face until final excavation is complete. Warning signs shall be placed on all
sides of the excavation area.
In the active mining area, land disturbing activities are accomplished such that all stormwater runoff
are directed into the mining pit. Drainage from stock pile areas gravity flow into the mining pits directly, or to a
swale collection system, which is empties into the larger mining pit via 15 inch culverts. Any de -watering from
pumping discharges into a energy dissipation swale, before emptying into the larger mining pit. No de -
watering will ever be discharged except to a mining pit that has sufficient capacity to handle the inflow while
maintaining proper freeboard, where it can infiltrate back into the groundwater.

CrMine
on and Maintenance Plan
Based on pump curve data, it is estimated that the maximum discharge rate for the
de -watering operation at the pit is approximately 1,000 gpm. Based on a pump run time of 8 hours per
day this equates to 480,g0D gallons per_dday., t is likely that discharge rates per day will be less as the
pumps will only beLused intermittently as demand for material warrants. Withdrawn water
from the smaller pit in the Eastern Mine Area is pumped to an energy dissipation swale before
ultimately being discharged into the larger pit in the Eastern Mine Area. Where it will infiltrate back into
the groundwater.
O&M Procedures
The following sections discuss O&M procedures to be followed for the Mining Pit activities at
the site. A spreadsheet to be used as a (weekly) general inspection checklist has been
provided as Table 1. The general inspection checklists will be maintained in a dedicated folder or
file and kept in onsite in a secure area.
In addition, a qualitative inspection and analytical discharge monitoring will be conducted at the
proposed overflow spillway of the larger pit. A Stormwater Discharge Outfall Qualitative Inspection
Monitoring form is attached_ The qualitative inspection monitoring form is to be completed weekly and
during any storm event greater than 0.10 inches and will be kept on file on site. If no discharge occurs
during that period, (which is expected, given the pumping rates, pump run times and receiving pit size),
the Form shall be filled out as "no flow,"
De -watering Discharge
If a meter is present it should be read and recorded to document discharge rates. If there is no meter
present to monitor discharge rates from the smaller mining pit to the adjacent pit,
the discharge shall be estimated based on the de -watering pumps performance curve. This, coupled
with run times recorded from the hour meter at the pump shall be used to determine discharge volume,
along with the dates and times the de -watering pump is in operation.
Groundwater Monitoring
If in order to monitor the effects of pumping of the surficial aquifer on the surrounding area,
monitoring wells may be installed, based on the infrequency of pumping and pumping rates, the wells
are not proposed at this time. If in the future they are required the shall be installed in accordance
with all applicable rules and regulations, located both horizontally and vertically to State Plane
coordinates and NAVD 88 elevation respectively. Water levels in the wells would then be
measured from the top of the PVC casing monthly and recorded on the weekly inspection checklist.
Wedands✓Surface water Monitoring
The wetland areas as well as surface waters in proximity to the mining pits shall be visually
inspected for signs of vegetative stress or abnormality, and water level and flow within the tributary to
Hancock Creek shall be measured on a weekly basis. All observations from the weekly wetland and
surface water inspections shall be recorded on the weekly inspection form.

Operation and Maintenance Plan
0 o
Stormwater Qualitative Inspection Monitoring
Stormwater qualitative inspection monitoring shall be conducted at the overflow spillway
weekly and during any storm event greater than 0.10 inches. It is anticipated that no discharge will occur
from either de -watering or typical storm events, however documentation of this fact shall be provided.
Monitoring shall include descriptions and observations made at the overflow spillway and include: Color;
odor; clarity; floating solids; suspended solids; foam; oil sheen; indications of sediment deposition;
indications of erosion; and any other obvious indication of stormwater pollution. If no discharge occurs for
that period, the form shall be filled out as "no flow_" All weekly qualitative inspections shall be recorded on
the attached Stormwater Discharge Outfall (SDO) Qualitative Inspection Monitodirfg form and kept on file
on site in a secure area. If obvious indications of turbidity, erosion or sedimentation are observed,
appropriate actions such as maintenance or other required measures shall be taken to protect the waters
of the state.
Stormwater and Mine De -watering AnaWcal Monitoring
Stormwater analytical monitoring shall be conducted at the overflow spillway semi-annually during a
representative storm event or mine de -watering that causes discharge. If no discharge occurs, the State
will be notified semi-annually that no discharge has occurred. If required, samples for Settleable
Solids and Total Suspended Solids shall be collected and sent to an offsite laboratory for
analysis. Field measurements of turbidity shall also be collected at the outfall during these
events. Total Rainfall, Event Duration, and Total Flow shall also be recorded on the
Stormwater Discharge Outfall (SDO) Qualitative Inspection Monitoring form. Semi-annual
analytical data and rainfall data will be recorded on a Discharge Monitoring Form and kept on
file on site in a secure area. If any parameter benchmark is exceeded for a semi-annual
event, a Stormwater Exceedence DMFI form will be forwarded to the Regional DWQ office
within 30 days of receipt of the analytical data. If required due to a discharge, analytical results for the semi-
annual events will be compiled in an Annual Discharge Monitoring Form for submittal to the Central DWQ
office by March 1 of the following year.
Semi-annual stormwater samples shall be collected between January 1 - June 30 and July I -
December 31, with a minimum of 60 days between samples.
In addition to the semi-annual stormwater monitoring, quarterly analytical sampling must be conducted at
the outfall to monitor general effluent quality from the de -watering activities, should a discharge occur.
Samples are to be collected and analyzed for pH, Settleable Solids, Total Suspended Solids,
and Turbidity. Total de -watering volume for the date of sample collection must also be recorded.
Quarterly effluent analytical data shall be recorded on a Discharge Monitoring Form and shall be kept on site.
However, if any parameter limit is exceeded, or a violation is found for any event, an Effluent Exceedence
DMR form will be forwarded to the Regional DWQ office within 30 days of receipt of the analytical data.
Analytical results for the quarterly events will be compiled in an Annual Discharge Monitoring Form for
submittal to the Central DWQ office by March 1 of the following year.

Hello,
FYI (Please see the attached DWQ, Site, Inspection Report for additional information).
I have no objection to the permitting of the LQ Mining Permit Modification as proposed.
Jena: I am not sure if you are interested in this project, but I have copied you regarding all other DLR Mine Reviews
(Please let me know if you need additional information).
Brian, The owner stated that Tateway, LLC is the permlttee. (I saw in RIMS that you had made the previous updates.) I
tried to make a few updates in BIMS, in order for the inspection report to reflect the correct information and prior to
forwarding the report to the permittee. Please let me know of any difficulties that these changes may cause and l will
be glad to help get you any information needed to go through the proper procedure of updating information in RIMS,
regarding NCG020483.
Jenn and Brian, I have no objection to NCG020483 permitting this operation as proposed and will help the owner of
Tateway, LLC, Rick Webb [phone] toward an approvable O&M Plan. (Mr. Webb states, that he does not have a
present need to dewater, but that he would like to obtain the approvals needed.)
Ashley, I stated that I would update you following the site visit. Roberto Sheller, WaRD-DWQ-401 [phone] says
that the project as proposed should have no complications working through the 404/401 processes. The PCN process
has been explained to Rick Webb. The short version; when a complete Pi application package is logged in, the 60 day
clack will begin and as presented, complications are not expected. [TRen witFi 404 and 401 authdrizatiol, tthe7

Hello,
FYI - This is just an update on the DWQ project status reporting.
A 404/401 onsite meeting with the owner is scheduled for Thursday, February 2, 2012. 1 told the owner, Rick Webb (757)
675-0205 that we would be at the site from between 10:30 to 11:00 am - until; to discuss the project's wetland and
waters of the state permitting. William Wescott, Washington Corps representative will help us (DWQ and the Owner)
better determine the scope of project. The plan is to start with the stream crossing, as well as to delineate any other
areas that the owner would like, while we are there. Then based on impacts, the owner can better decide what he
wants to permit.
I will keep you posted as additional information becomes available.
Anyone interested in attending is welcome.

Dear Mr. Webb:
We have reviewed the modification request your company submitted for the referenced
mine site. However, the following information is needed to continue processing your
application:
Revise the mine map to clearly label the permit boundary. This may either be
done with arrows and labels, or by symbol and label in the legend.
2. Revise the mine map'to provide additional erosion and sedimentation control for
the construction of the haul road and stream crossing (please show these on the
blow-up detail on Sheet C2). Clarify what the surface of the road will be (dirt,
gravel, etc.). Note that if you intend to keep this as a dirt road, then additional
erosion and sedimentation control may be necessary to prevent any sediment
from washing down toward the creek/stream or any wetland areas. Will side
slopes of the road be vegetated?
3. Please also note that erosion and sedimentation control measures should be
kept out of undisturbed buffers (the exception to this would be during the
construction of the road/stream crossing section which will require temporary
measures in the buffers until the crossing and road are stabilized).

4. Revise the mine map to change the label on the "limits of disturbance." This is
slightly confusing, as these areas are not truly the limits of disturbance for the'
site, just the limits of additional disturbance associated with this modification.
Something similar to "Additional Disturbed Area" or "Additional Limits of
Disturbance" is suggested.
5. The modification maps are showing a utility easement through the site, and
several areas of proposed disturbance within the easement. Provide proof that
the utility company has no objection to any activities proposed within the
easement.
6. Enclosed again are initial review comments from the Division of Water Quality
(DWQ) with contact information for various agencies. Please note that it appears
you will need additional permits/approvals from CAMA (possibly), USACE and
the DWQ. Provide proof that you have applied for and/or received any
necessary additional approvals.
7. Provide a US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) approved wetland delineation
on the mine map. I understand that your company is scheduling a site visit from
DWQ and the USACE in the near future to discuss any wetland/stream issues
and permits necessary.
Please be advised that our review cannot be completed until all of the items listed
above have been fully addressed. In addition, please note the Land Quality Section may
request additional information, not included in this letter, as the mining application review
progresses.
In order to complete.the processing of your application, please forward two 2 copies of
the requested information to my attention at the following address:

Ashley,
Please see below our comments for the above mine:
Upon review of the applicants comments submitted in response to the ADI dated 8/29/11 1 have made the
following comments:
Ol. The mine map does not clearly label the permit boundary.
2. Construction entrances are shown at 2 of the 3 entrances to the mine. The primary entrance does not show a
construction entrance. f does show Qaved osphakt cAZO�
3. North arrow appears to be correctly oriented. P{ �Ai kInJ l
4. The undisturbed bufferappears to have been modified to show the proper distance. ww'YkoC G ,
The mine map appears to show a majority of the area to be permitted as excavation, though it does not seem
the applicant intends to excavate the entire proposed area. The mine map does a good job showing current site
conditions but does not show proposed excavation limits or proposed reclamation conditions. +4'ASL.a 'o'er
6. A profile and detail of the haul road and stream crossing has been provided. Cw t{ A o'W P
7. The applicant has clarified that the berms are existing and vegetated and not to be disturbed.
& Request to stockpile material made under number 2 of narrative dated July 15, 2011 and resubmitted with this
package.
9. A level spreader is no.longer shown on site. Applicant indicated there is no dewatering to occur.
10, Rip Rap aprons with a detail have been shown as inlet and outlet protection of the stream crossing.
11. The applicant has indicated that dewatering will not occur at this time. The applicant is aware that a permit
modification is required before any pumping occurs on site.
12. It appears permits will/may still be needed for the stream crossing and overflow spillway. DWQ comments
indicate that asphalt/concrete production will require an additional NPDES permit. The applicant is not
necessarily producing concrete or asphalt, but storing it on site. Does this still apply? DWQ may need to
provide new comments now that dewatering is no longer proposed since I am not sure how the removal of
dewatering will affect what permits are required.
The proposed haul road will require some fill material based on the profile. The base of the fill will need erosion
and sediment control measures to prevent sediment from going into the wetland. Also, the road surface should
have a groundcover (crushed stone etc) to restrain erosion especially on the sloped sections of the road.
My assumption would be that a wetland delineation would only be needed in the area to be impacted for the
crossing. But since DWQ did not clearly state this in their comments, 1 am not sure.

Project Narrative
July 15, 2011
(Revised November 18, 2011)
The above referenced project is an active mine which is located at 1521 Highway 101 in
Havelock, Craven County, North Carolina.
The purpose of this project and submittal is as follows:
1.) To provide the North Carolina Department of Environment & Natural Resources with a
site map of the mine area, including showing stockpile areas on site, (these stockpiles will
not be used as beneficial fill.).
2.) To request that these stockpile areas be allowed as part of the Mining Permit
Modification. It is important to note that there will is no "processing" of materials onsite
with the possible exception of crushing, (concrete, asphalt, brick), prior to stockpiling.
These materials are stockpiled for resale only as recycled materials. As stated above these
recycled materials will not be used as beneficial fill in any mine reclamation activities.
3.) To file a Mining Permit Modification package with Land Quality for proposed
disturbance of three areas totaling 1.49 acres of disturbance with in the existing mine
property. These area are as follows:
A.) A disturbed area of 49,213 square feet for a proposed earthen interior haul road
connecting the 2 mining areas. This is to allow heavy equipment, Excavators,
Bulldozers, etc. to be moved between The 2 mining areas with out being loaded on
a flatbed trailer and towed in order to be moved between the 2 raining areas,
utilizing NC Highway 101. This disturbance will also have a stream crossing as
shown on the attached plans. Please advise on any other required permits from
other agencies to ensure that prior to construction of the haul road, all necessary
permits are obtained.
B.) A disturbed area of 15,863 square feet to provide an emergency overflow spillway
for an existing area of impounded water associated with the mine. This area
currently has no means of preventing overtopping, with the exception of
infiltration into the groundwater. The proposed emergency spillway will
incorporate Rip -Rap and filter fabric.

LAND QUALITY SECTION

The following are responses to the items detailed in your letter of August 29, 2011:
1.) This has been revised on the mine map. The permitted area is listed as 44.85 Acres, and
the affected area is listed as 3597 Acres. The difference between this number and what
we had discussed is the inclusion of the 1.23 acres for the proposed interior haul road.
2.) Construction entrances have been added at each entrance onto NC Highway 101.
3.) Revised/Corrected on Mine Map
4_) Revised/Corrected on Mine Map
5.) Revised/Corrected on Mine Map (this was originally done to agree with what was filled
out on a previous Mining Permit Modification Form)
b.) Added detail and cross-section along with a profile of proposed haul road to Drawings.
7.) Berms are installed and vegetated as shown, and furthermore will not be disturbed during
either existing or proposed mining activities.
8.) Request made on previous page of Revised Project Narrative.
9.) Not Applicable as the proposed de -watering has been removed at the owners request.
The Emergency spillway as now shown is only to prevent uncontrolled overtopping
during a storm event.
10.) Added on Mine Map and detail shown on sheet C2.
11.) Not Applicable as the proposed de -watering has been removed at the owners request. If
de -watering is considered in the future a separate Mining Permit Modification will be
requested.
12.) It is assumed from our discussion that these additional permits were required due to the
proposed dewatering request, which has been withdrawn, as we discussed. Please advise
if any or all of these permits are still required as part of the proposed interior haul road
and associated stream crossing.
13.) Please advise why this is required. This has not been a requirement in past modifications
and it is unclear if this is a requirement for the withdrawn de- watering or the proposed
interior haul road. If this is a requirement due to the proposed interior haul road, will all
wetlands on the property be required to be delineated and then confirmed by the
USACOE, or will it be just the area in the vicinity of the interior haul road and associated
stream crossing.

LAND QUALITY SECTION
Ple& find attached a copy of the mining permit application request for the above referenced project.
The Hancock Creek Mine located in Craven County does not appear to have an unduly adverse effect on ground
water supplies since there is currently 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 on an annual basis to
D WR. If this mine wants to withdraw 100,000 gpd or more of water, they will need to obtain a CCPCUA
permit prior to dewatering activities.
A Central Coastal Plain Capacity Use Area (CCPCUA) 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, you may go to the www.ncwater.ore and click on the link for Central Coastal
Plain Capacity Use Area or contact the Division of Water Resources at [phone] or send correspondence

Dear Mr. Webb:
Beverly Eaves Perdue, Governor
Dee Freeman, Secretary
We have reviewed the modification request your company submitted for the referenced
mine site.. However, the following information is needed to continue processing your
application:
1. Revise the mine map to clearly label the permit boundary.
2. Revise the mine map to show/label construction entrances at each point of
entrance/exit along NC Hwy 101.
3. Revise the mine map to correctly orient the North arrow.
4. Please check the lines identifying the undisturbed buffers along the creeks. For
instance, in the northwestern corner of the site, the 50 foot undisturbed buffer line
does not appear to be correct. Revise the mine map as necessary to provide the
required buffers.

Project Narrative
July 15, 2011
The above referenced project is an active mine which is located at 1521 Highway 101 in
Havelock, Craven County, North Carolina.
The purpose of this project and submittal is as follows:
1.) To provide the North Carolina Department of Environment & Natural Resources with a
site map of the mine area, including showing stockpile areas on site (these stockpiles will
not be used as beneficial fill.)
2.) To file a Mining Permit Modification package with Land Quality for proposed
disturbance of three areas totaling 1.53 acres of disturbance with in the existing mine
property. These area are as follows:
A.) A disturbed area of 49,213 square feet for a proposed interior haul road
connecting the 2 mining areas with out having to impact NC Highway 101. This
disturbance will also have a stream crossing as shown on the attached plans.
Please advise on any other required permits from other agencies to ensure that
prior to construction of the haul road, all necessary permits are obtained.
B.) A disturbed area of 20,214 square feet associated with regrading of an energy
dissipation swale for potential future de -watering operations associated with
mining activity. This grading should improve water quality by lessening turbidity
of the water produced by future de -watering operations An NPDES permit is
assumed to be required prior to any dewatering operations at the mine. Please
advise if this is correct and if any other permits will be required.
C.) A disturbed area of 17,970 square feet to provide an overflow spillway for an
existing area of impounded water associated with the mine. This area currently
has no means of preventing overtopping, with the exception of infiltration into the
groundwater.the proposed outfall will incorporate Rip -Rap, a level spreader and
vegetative filter.

C. PROTECTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES
Describe in detail the sequence of events for the development and operation ofthe mine and reference the
sequence to the mine map(s). Attach additional sheets as needed.
The existing gravel construction entrances and existing erosion control measures will be maintained, and
modified as required to prevent off -site and or buffer zone impacts. The existing permittee will begin
filling with beneficial fill in selected areas on the east side of the property and will excavate selected areas
on the east and west side of the property. Any filling on the west side of the property will be done using
beneficial fill. Existing stockpiles of non -beneficial till on the property (as shown on plans), will not be
used as fill material. "These areas are for sale of recycled stockpiled materials. A proposed interior haul
road is also shown on the plans, to allow movement between the eastern and western mine areas without
having to use NC Highway 101. A proposed overflow spillway is shown for safety and to protect water
quality on the large pond in the eastern mine area as there is no existing spillway/overflow. A proposed
dewatering pipe is also shown along with an energy dissipating swale to allow sediment to settle out to
the maximum extent practical, before entering the existing large pond on the eastern side of the mine. No
dewatering will be conducted until all necessary permits/approvals are received from the Division of
Water Quality, and other infrastructure for compliance and monitoring installed as part of the
permits/approvals from the Division of Water Quality.
2. Describe specific erosion control measures to be installed prior to land disturbing activities and during
mining to prevent offsite sedimentation (include specific plans.for sediment and erosion controlfir r mine
excavation(s), waste piles, access/mine roads and process areas), and give a detailed sequence of
installation and schedule for maintenance ofthe measures. Locale and label all sediment and erasion
control measures on the mine map(s) and provide typical cross-sections/construction details of each
measure. Engineering designs and calculations are required to justify the adequacy of any proposed
measures.
The existing gravel construction entrances and existing erosion control measures will be maintained, and
modified as required to prevent off -site and or buffer zone impacts. Measures are shown on the attached
plans, along with details.
3. a. Will the operation involve washing the material mined, recycling process water, or other waste water
handling? Yes ❑ No®. If yes, briefly describe all such processes including any chemicals to be used.
b. Will the operation involve discharging fresh or waste water from the mine or plant as a point discharge to
the waters ofthe State? Yes ® No ❑. Ifyes, briefly describe the nature ofthe discharge and locate
all proposed discharge points (along wilh their method of stabilization) on your mine map(s).
Although there will be no current discharging of fresh or wastewater to the waters of the state as a point
discharge, provisions are shown on the attached plans for an overflow spillway and vegetative Filter, on the
existing large pond in the eastern portion of the mine. This is to ensure that any overflow to the waters of
the state are controlled, mini mizing/preventing adverse impacts to waters of the state. This spillway would
be utilized to control discharge, and protect water quality if future dewatering is permitted and approved by
both the Land Quality Section and the Division of Water Quality.

c. Will any part of the proposed mine excavation(s) extend below the water table? Yes ® No ❑.
If yes, do you intend to dewater the excavation(s)? Yes ® No ❑.
If yes, what impact, ifany, will mine dewatering have on neighboring wells? Estimated withdrawal rate
in gallons per day: . Locale all existing wells on the mine map(v) that lie within
500.feet of the proposed excavation area. Provide data to support any conclusions or statements made,
including any monitoring well data, well construction data and current water withdrawal rates. Indicate
whether the proposed mine locale is served by a public water system or private wells.
Dewatering of the mine is not planned at this time, but is being considered for potential future activities.
Prior to dewatering activities, a proper hydrogeologic investigation will be conducted, and report
prepared. All necessary permits from both the Land Quality Section and Division of Water Quality will
be obtained prior to any dewatering activities at the site.
d. Ifs you answered yes to any of the above questions, provide evidence that you have applied for or
obtained the appropriate water quality permit(s) (i.e., non -discharge, NPDES, Stormwater, etc.) from the
Division of Water Quality, Water Quality Section. In addition, the applicant is required to register water
use with the Division of Water Resources if the operation withdraws more than 10,000 gallons per day
and needs a capacity use permit from the Division of Water Resources if the operation lies in a capacity
use area and withdraws more than 100,000 gallons per day.
See above Statement.
4. a. Will the operation involve crtEsliing_or. any other air contaminant emissions? Yes ® 2No ❑.
Ifs yes, indicate evidence that you have applied for or obtained an air quality permit issued by the
Division of Air Quality or local governing body.

A buffer will be required between any mining activity and any mining permit boundary or right-of-
way. It may be an unexcavated buffer (no excavation, but roadways, berms and erosion &
sedimentation control measures may be installed within it), an undisturbed buffer (no disturbance
within the buffer whatsoever), or a combination of the two, depending upon the site conditions. Note
that all buffers must be located within the mining permit boundaries.
How wide a buffer will be maintained between any mining activity and any mining permit boundary
or right-of-way at this site? A minimum buffer of 25 feet is recommended, although a wider buffer
may be needed depending on site conditions. Show all 6ufJer locations and widths on the mine
map(s).
A minimum of 50 foot undisturbed buffer will be maintained at the site, with a larger buffer (125
feet) adjacent to Hancock Creek.
h. A minimum 50 foot wide undisturbed buffer will be required between any land disturbing activities
within the mining permit boundaries and any natural watercourses and wetlands unless smaller
undisturbed buffers can be justified. Depending on site conditions, a buffer wider than 50 feet may

GENERAL'
- FERTILIZER RATES SHOWN ARE GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS: FREQUENCY AND AMOUNT OF FEETRUZATION CAN BEST BE DETERMINED THROUGH SITE SPECWIC SOIL TESTING.
- MAINTENANCE:
SATISFACTORY STABILIZATION AND EROSION CONTROL REQUIRES A COMPLETE VEGETATIVE COVER. EVEN SMALL VEGETATE IN VEGETATCOVER CAN EXPAND RAPIDLY AND,
IF LEFT UNATTENDED, CAN ALLOW SERIOUS SOIL LOSS FROM AN OTHERWISE STABLE SURFACE. A SINGE HEAVY RAIN IS OFTEN SUFFICIENT TO GREATLY ENLARGE BARE
SPOTS, AND THE LONGER REPAIRS ARE DELAYED, THE MORE COSTLY THEY BECOME PROMPT ACTON WILL KEEP SEDIMENT LOSS AND REPAIR COST DOWN. NEW
SEEDUNGS SHOULD BE INSPECTED FREQUENTLY AND MAINTENANCE PERFORMED AS NEEDED. IF SELLS AID GULLIES DEVELOP. THEY MUST BE FILLED IN RE -SEEDED.
AND MULCHED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE DIVERSIONS MAY BE NEEDED UNTIL NEW PUNTS TAKE HOLD.
MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS EXTEND BEYOND THE SEEDING PHASE. (UNTIL FI/LLL OOMPE II IS AWARDED)
WEAK OR DAMAGED SPOTS MUST BE REUMED, FERTILIZED, MULCHED, AND RESEEDED AS PROMPTLY AS POSSIBLE REFERRN UZATI MAY BE NEEDED TO MAINTAIN
PRODUCTIVE STANDS.

Project Narrative
July 15, 2011
The above referenced project is an active mine which is located at 1521 Highway 101 in
Havelock, Craven County, North Carolina.
The purpose of this project and submittal is as follows:
1.) To provide the North Carolina Department of Environment & Natural Resources with a
site map of the mine area, including showing stockpile areas on site (these stockpiles will
not be used as beneficial fill.)
2.) To file a Mining Permit Modification package with Land Quality for proposed
disturbance of three areas totaling 1.53 acres of disturbance with in the existing mine
property. These area are as follows:
A.) A disturbed area of 49,213 square feet for a proposed interior haul road
connecting the 2 mining areas with out having to impact NC Highway 101. This
disturbance will also have a stream crossing as shown on the attached plans.
Please advise on any other required permits from other agencies to ensure that
prior to construction of the haul road, all necessary permits are obtained.
B.) A disturbed area of 20,214 square feet associated with regrading of an energy
dissipation swale for potential future de -watering operations associated with
mining activity. This grading should improve water quality by lessening turbidity
of the water produced by future de -watering operations An NPDES permit is
assumed to be required prior to any dewatering operations at the mine. Please
advise if this is correct and if any other permits will be required.
C.) A disturbed area of 17,970 square feet to provide an overflow spillway for an
existing area of impounded water associated with the mine. This area currently
has no means of preventing overtopping, with the exception of infiltration into the
groundwater.the proposed outfall will incorporate Rip -Rap, a level spreader and
vegetative filter.

C. PROTECTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES
l . Describe in detail the sequence of events for the development and operation of the mine and reference the
sequence to the mine map(5). Attach additional sheets as needed.
The existing gravel construction entrances and existing erosion control measures will be maintained, and
modified as required to prevent off -site and or buffer zone impacts. The existing permittee will begin
filling with beneficial fill in selected areas on the east side of the properly and will excavate selected areas
on the east and west side of the property. Any filling on the west side of the property will be done using
beneficial Fill. Existing stockpiles of non -beneficial fill on the property (as shown on plans), will not be
used as fill material. These areas are for sale of recycled stockpiled materials. A proposed interior haul
road is also shown on the plans, to allow movement between the eastern and western mine areas without
having to use NC Highway lal. A proposed overflow spillway is shown for salety and to protect water
quality on the large pond in the eastern mine area as there is no existing spillway/overflow. A proposed
dewatering pipe is also shown along with an energy dissipating swale to allow sediment to settle out to
the maximum extent practical, before entering the existing large pond on the eastern side of the mine. No
dewatering will be conducted until all necessary permits/approvals are received from the Division of'
Water Quality, and other infrastructure for compliance and monitoring installed as part of the
permits/approvals from the Division of Water Quality.
2. Describe specific erosion control measures to be installed prior to land disturbing activities and during
mining to prevent offsite sedimentation (include specific plansfor sediment and erosion control_for mine
excavalion(5), waste piles, access/mine roads and process areas), and give a detailed sequence of
installation and schedule for maintenance of the measures. Locate and label all sediment and erasion
control measures on the mine map(v) and provide typical cross-seclions/construction details of each
measure. Engineering designs and calculations are required to justify the adequacy of any proposed
measures.
The existing gravel construction entrances and existing erosion control measures will be maintained, and
modi fled as required to prevent off -site and or buffer zone impacts. Measures are shown on the attached
plans, along with details.
3. a. Will the operation involve washing the material mined, recycling process water, or other waste water
handling? Yes ❑ No ®. If Yes, briefly describe all such processes including any chemicals to be used.
b. Will the operation involve discharging fresh or waste water from the mine or plant as a point discharge to
the waters of the State? Yes ® NoEl Ifyes, briefly describe the nature vfthe discharge and locate
all proposed discharge points (along with their method of stabilization) on your mine map(5).
Although there will be no current discharging of fresh or wastewater to the waters of the state as a point
discharge, provisions are shown on the attached plans for an overflow spillway and vegetative filter, al the
existing large pond in the eastern portion of the mine. This is to ensure that any overflow to the waters of
the state are controlled, mini mizing/preventing adverse impacts to waters of the state. This spillway would
be utilized to control discharge, and protect water quality if future dewatering is permitted and approved by
both the Land Quality Section and the Division of Water Quality.

APPLICATION FOR A MINING PERMIT
Will any part of the proposed mine excavation(s) extend below the water table? Yes ® No ❑.
If yes, do you intend to dewater the excavation(s)? Yes ® No ❑.
If yes, what impact, if any, will mine dewatering have on neighboring wells'? Estimatcd withdrawal rate
in gallons per day: . Locate all existing wells on the mine maps) that lie within
500jeel of the proposed excavation area. Provide data to support any conclusions or statements made,
including any monitoring well data, well construction data and current water withdrawal rates. Indicate
whether the proposed mine locale is served by a public water system or private wells.
Dewatering of the mine is not planned at this time, but is being considered for potential future activities.
Prior to dewatering activities, a proper hydrogeologic investigation will be conducted, and report
prepared. All necessary permits from both the Land Quality Section and Division of Water Quality will
be obtained prior to any dewatering activities at the site.
d. It' you answered yes to any of the above questions, provide evidence that you have applied for or
obtained the appropriate water quality permit(s) (i.e., non -discharge, NPDES, Stormwater, etc.) from the
Division of Water Quality, Water Quality Section. In addition, the applicant is required to register water
use with the Division of Water Resources if the operation withdraws more than 10,000 gallons per day
and needs a capacity use permit from the Division of Water Resources if the operation lies in a capacity
use area and withdraws more than 100,000 gallons per day.
See above Statement.
4. a. Will the operation involve crushing or any other air contaminant emissions`? Yes ® No ❑.
If yes, indicate evidence that you have applied for or obtained an air quality permit issued by the
Division of Air Quality or local governing body.
Not currently, but possible in the future. Prior to any crushing, an air quality permit shall be obtained.

APPLICATION FOR A MINING PERMIT
A buffer will be required between any mining; activity and any mining; permit boundary or right-ot=
way. It may be an unexcavated buffer (no excavation, but roadways, berms and erosion &
sedimentation control measures may be installed within it), an undisturbed buffer (no disturbance
within the buffer whatsoever), or a combination of the two, depending upon the site conditions. Note
that all buffers must be located within the mining permit boundaries.
I -low wide a buffer will be maintained between any mining activity and any mining permit boundary
or right-of-way at this site? A minimum buffer of 25 feet is recommended, although a wider buffer
may be needed depending; on site conditions. Show all buffer locutions and widths on the mina
map(v).
A minimum of 50 foot undisturbed buffer will be maintained at the site, with a larger buffer (125
feet) adjacent to Hancock Creek.
b. A minimum 50 foot wide undisturbed buffer will be required between any land disturbing activities
within the mining; permit boundaries and any natural watercourses and wetlands unless smaller
undisturbed buffers can be justified. Depending; on site conditions, a buffer wider than 50 feet may
be needed.
I -low wide an undisturbed buffer will be maintained between any land disturbing activities within the
mining permit boundaries and any natural watercourses and wetlands at this site? Show all buffer
locations and widths on the mine map(ti).

Page 2
In accordance with the application for this mining permit, which is hereby approved by the
Department of Environment and Natural Resources, hereinafter referred to as the Department,
and in conformity with the approved Reclamation Plan attached to and incorporated as part of
this permit, provisions must be made for the protection of the surrounding environment and for
reclamation of the land and water affected by the permitted mining operation. This permit is
expressly conditioned upon compliance with all the requirements of the approved Reclamation
Plan. However, completed performance of the approved Reclamation Plan is a separable
obligation, secured by the bond or other security on file with the Department, and may survive
the expiration, revocation or suspension of this permit.
This permit is not transferable by the permittee with the following exception: If another
operator succeeds to the interest of the permittee in the permitted mining operation, by virtue
of a sale, lease, assignment or otherwise, the Department may release the permittee from the
duties imposed upon him by the conditions of his permit and by the Mining Act with reference
to the permitted operation, -and transfer the permit to the successor operator, provided that
both operators have complied with the requirements of the Mining Act and that the successor
operator agrees to assume the duties of the permittee with reference to reclamation of the
affected land and posts a suitable bond or other security.
In the event that the Department determines that the permittee or permittee's successor is not
complying with the Reclamation Plan or other terms and conditions of this permit, or is failing
to achieve the purposes and requirements of the Mining Act, the Department may give the
operator written notice of its intent to modify, revoke or suspend the permit, or its intent to
modify the Reclamation Plan as incorporated in the permit. The operator shall have right to a
hearing -at a designated time and place on any proposed modification, revocation or
suspension by the Department. Alternatively and in addition to the above, the Department
may institute other enforcement procedures authorized by law.
Definitions
Wherever used or referred to in this permit, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise,
terms shall have the same meaning as supplied by the Mining Act, N.C.G.S, 74-49.
Modifications
August 27, 2002: This permit has been modified to allow the stockpiling and disposal of clean
offsite generated soil material within the mining permit boundaries as indicated on the Overall
Site Plan last revised May 28, 2002.
February 7, 2007: This permit, issued to Dirt, Inc., has been transferred in its entirety to
Heritage One, LLC, the permitted acreage increased to 48.84 acres and the affected acreage
at this site increased to 34.84 acres as indicated on the mine map dated July 28, 2006. The
modification includes clarification of the permitted and affected area at the site because of
more accurate mapping of the site and the expansion of the beneficial fill area at the site,
including the disposal of clean concrete material, in accordance with the rules interpreted and
enforced by the Division of Waste Management.

Ms. Cristy M. Daly
Pennsylvania National Mutual Casualty
Insurance Company
PO Box 2243
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17105-2243
This office has received notification of Pennsylvania National Mutual Casualty
Insurance Company's intent to cancel Heritage One, LLC's $82,800.00 mine reclamation bond
(Bond No. 0327092). The effective date for the cancellation is March 27, 2010.
Please note that if the bond is not reinstated or replaced by February 25, 2010, the
mining permit will be automatically revoked (G.S. 74-50(c)). Thus, all mining activities must
cease and the entire mine site must be completely reclaimed. Should any further mining
activities occur at the site after this date, such activities will be considered mining without a
permit and subject to further enforcement action, such as civil penalties and injunctive relief.

As a surety is required to maintain the validity of the mining permit, please arrange to
substitute this bond. I am enclosing another surety form, an assignment of savings account
form and an irrevocable standby letter of credit form, any of which may be used to replace the
existing surety.
Please be advised that this reclamation bond must remain in full force and effect until it
is reinstated or replaced, or the site is completely reclaimed and deemed releaseable by the
Department. A review of our records indicates that the mining permit for the above referenced
mine site is still active and, therefore, a valid mine reclamation bond is still required until all
outstanding reclamation obligations have been met at the site.
If a substitute reclamation bond is not received by this office within this deadline, or if
reclamation of the site has not commenced and is proceeding in a timely manner by this
deadline, this matter will be referred to the Attorney General's Office for initiation of bond
forfelture proceedings under G.S. 74-56(d) to ensure proper reclamation of the mine site. In
addition, failure to address the terms of this Notice may result in the assessment of civil
penalties and/or injunctive relief against the permittee.
Please contact Ms. Ashley Rodgers, Assistant State Mining Specialist, at (919) 733-
4574 as soon as possible to convey your intentions in this matter. Your cooperation will be
greatly appreciated.

Dear Mr. Webb:
We have reviewed the transfer request your company submitted for the referenced mine
site. However, the following information is needed to continue processing your application:
1. An inspection wale made of the mine site on January 14, 2010. This inspection
revealed that off -site material was being stockpiled within the limits of beneficial
fill material. This toff -site material must be removed or the permit modified to
allow its placement onsite. The transfer request cannot be completed until the
site has come into compliance.
2. Please confirm thl t you wish to transfer the permit from "Heritage One, -LC" to
"East Coast Abatement Company, Inc." Please note that the name on page one
of the application (under "Applicant") must be identical to the name on the
reclamation bond '(already submitted under "East Coast Abatement Company,
Inc.").

3. Because this is more of w company name_ change than an ownership change: do we still need a
letter from the original owner requesting the mine be transferred to the raw owner? (The owner
is the same for all companies)
4. Page I indicates the applicant is Last Coast Abatement Co., Inc. and Tateway, LLC; East Coast
being the operator and Tateway, LLC being the owner. Both companies are owned by Richard
Webb. Both companies should be listed on the Land Entry Agreement.
l5 A site inspection was conducted on January 14. 2010. The inspection revealed that in addition to
beneficial fill material additional material is being stockpiled on site within the limits of
beneficial fill material. The applicant has been notified that material needs to be removed or the
permit modified to allow, for this material to be placed on site.
If this office can be of further assistance, please advise

As a surety is required to maintain the validity of the mining permit, please arrange to

existing surety.
Please be advised that this reclamation bond must remain in full force and effect until it
is reinstated or replaced, or the site is completely reclaimed and deemed releaseable by the

If a substitute reclamation bond is not received by this office within this deadline, or if
reclamation of the site has not commenced and is proceeding in a timely manner by this

Dear Mr. Webb -
Michael F. Easley, Governor
William G. Ross Jr., Secretary
Your request to have the above referenced mining permit, issued to Dirt Inc.,
transferred in its entirety to your company has been approved. In addition your request for
renewal and modification of said permit has also been approved. The modification is to
increase the permitted acreage to 48.85 acres and the affected acreage at this site to 34.84
acres as indicated on the Mine M,ap dated July 28, 2006. The modification includes
clarification of the permitted and affected area at the site because of more accurate mapping
of the site and the expansion of the beneficial fill area at the site, including the disposal of
clean concrete material, in accorc ance with the rules interpreted and enforced by the Division
of Waste Management.
As we have received the required surety in an amount sufficient to cover the present
operation, I am enclosing the renewed, modified and transferred mining permit. The permit
number and mine name shall remain the same as before the renewal, modification and
transfer.
Please review the permit carefully and notify this office of any objections or questions
you may have concerning the terms of the permit. It is your responsibility to fully understand
and comply with the conditions of your mining permit. I would like to draw your particular
attention to the following conditions where minor additions or changes were made: Operating
Condition Nos. 4C, 4D, 5, 813, 10E and 13 and Reclamation Condition Nos. land 3.
As a reminder, your permitted acreage at this site is 48.85 acres ,and the amount of
land you are approved to disturb`is 34.84 acres.

Dear Mr Edwards:
In reference to our recent telephone conversation regarding the use of concrete
and other reclaimed materials as fill for the reclamation of permitted mine sites; under
Title 15A North Carolina Administrative Code Chapter 13. Subchapter 13B .0562
Beneficial Fill:
A permit is not required for beneficial fill activity that meets all of the following
conditions:
(1) The fill material consists only of inert debris strictly limited to concrete, brick,
concrete block, uncontaminated soil, rock, and gravel.
(2) The fill activity involves no excavation.
(3) The purpose of the fill activity is to improve land use potential or other approved
beneficial reuses.
(4) The fill activity is not exempt from, and must comply with, all other applicable
Federal, State, and Local laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations, including but not
limited to zoning restrictions, flood plain restrictions, wetland restrictions, mining
regulations, sedimentation and erosion control regulations. Fill activity shall not
contravene groundwater standards.
Pursuant to N.C.G.S. 130A-22(a) and 15A N.C.A.C. 13B .0701-.0707, an
administrative penalty of up to $5,000.00 per day may be assessed for each violation of

SUBJECT: Comments on the Mining Permit Modification Request for:
Heritage one LLC
Hancock Creek Mine
Craven County
Please find attached a copy of the mining permit modification request for the above referenced
project
The Hancock Creek Mine located in Craven 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 god to 100,000 gpd of water, they will need to register their water withdrawals and if this
mine starts to withdraw 100,000 grit or more of water, they will need to obtain a CICPCUA coonit.
A Central Coastal Plain Capacity Use Area (CCPCUA) 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.

Ms. Campbell:
In order to permit a portion of the referenced site to your firm,
The Land Quality Section must receive a Partial Release Request
from the current mining permit holder, A completed mining
application from your firm and you need to obtain a permit from the
Division of Waste Management for the "demolition landfill". The
contact with DWM is Mr. Jim Barber (919-733--0692).
The current mine permit holder will be released from his
obligations, under the Mining Act, for that portion of the present
mine site released and repermitted by your firm.
I suggest that as this project seems to hinge on the demolition
landfill, check that process first.
Please contact me if you want the mining permit applications mailed
or you can get them on-line @

Floyd:
A company is interested in acquiring 10 acres of this site for
disposal of demolition debris. They would like to obtain a.mining
permit on their acreage. (I am faxing a copy of a map showing
were the desired acreage is. This is the East end of the permitted
acreage.) What is the procedure for this company to permit acreage
within an area that already has a permit? I am aware that they
would need to contract Solid Waste for the disposing of the debris.
From what the cantact person has told me, their intent is to mine
and backfill with the demolition materials - not sure of type of
material.
What does the present permittee - Dirt, Inc. - need to do so that
this portion of the site can be repermitted by another party? Pat

The review has been completed on the modification request your company submitted for
the above referenced mine site. However, the following is needed to continue processing your
application:
The reclamation bond was calculated for this site using the information submitted in the
additional information dated May 28, 2002. The reclamation bond for this site has been
calculated to be $39,700.00. The calculation worksheet is enclosed for your review and the
bond or balance ($19,800.00) will be required prior to approval of this renewal.
For your convenience, I have enclosed a bond form, an assignment of a savings account
form and irrevocable standby letter of credit form for your use in securing the required bond. The
name on the security must be the same as the name appearing on the application for a mining
permit, i.e., Dirt, Inc. In addition to one of these alternatives, you may, upon request, substitute
a cash deposit.
Please be advised that the modification request cannot be completed until the new bond
amount has been received.

Dear Mr. Jackson:
We have reviewed the modification request and supplemental information you submitted for the
above referenced mine site. However, the following information is needed to continue processing your
application:
1. Udine Man
Please revise the mine map to address the following items:
A. Provide access to the southeastern excavation area and the northwestern Soil
Disposal Area. As depicted on the submitted mine map, the proposed continuous silt
fence installations prevent access to these areas.
B. Provide adequate sedimentation control between the unstabilized berms and NC Hwy
101.
C. The current permit states that the planned reclamation shall be to restore the mine
excavations to lake areas and to grade and revegetater the adjacent disturbed areas.
This permit is currently bonded on the basis of this reclamation plan. If the proposed
modification to the existing permit includes backfrlling the excavation areas with
materials brought from off -site, please indicate on the map which portions of the
excavations will be filled in for final reclamation. (Please be advised that portions of
the excavation areas to be backfilled with off -site materials will be bonded at a higher
rate than portions which will be reclaimed as lake areas.)

As required in the June 8, 2001 letter from this office, please complete and
submit the enclosed Bond Calculation Worksheet to address all proposed
and existing affected areas associated with this permit. Be advised that the
current permit allows for the disturbance of 32.14 acres within the permitted
area of 48.85 acres. The proposed modification would replace the permitted
50 foot undisturbed and unexcavated buffer zones along NC Hwy 101 with
a large earthen berth and a 5 foot undisturbed buffer. Therefore, the revised
Total Affected Acreage should exceed 32.14 acres by the amount
represented by the proposed placement of berms within permitted
undisturbed buffers along NC Hwy 101. Provided that your proposed final
reclamation plan is cleady described on your mine map, this office can
calculate the revised bond amount for your permit once you have supplied
the Bond Calculation Worksheet with the Total Affected Acreage broken
down into the listed categories.
Please be advised that our review cannot be completed until all of the items listed
above have been fully addressed.

To: Chris Hite <chrs. [e-mail]>
Chris:
Attached (in wordperfect6.1 format) are Bill Crews comments on the referenced modification request.
My comments are: 14ij
The modification appears to be to allow the construction of a 50 ft. wide earthen berm within the buffer C•"eeaf /I
along NC 101. The mine map for this site is confusing as it indicates that the permit boundary is 50 feetb°"'droirs;9xl-eF
from the property line. This may have been administratively changed when the permit was issued, but I
find no substantiation for this. If the permit boundary, at least along the south and east sides is in fact the
property line, there is no increase in the permit area. This would merely be a change in the buffer from
basically undisturbed to unexcavated. Then the condition would be for the material to be clean earthen
material free of any foreign objects. However, if this area is ig fact contiguous to and outsye the permit
the applicant should as a minimum recalculate the bond. Bart ePcale. N,7f heeffr%/e nr a ,Al: %i a

RE: Modification Request for The Hancock Creek Mine, Permit # 25 - 56
�PP'c[,"A�)I� Craven County
� << f;
�I leV j Below are comments on the referenced mine permit modification request. The y p
^�'VF C"(/F modification request was in the form of a letter and a revised mine map received in this office P�,�'R
April 9, 2001. The request did not include the appropriate pages from the Mining Permit ('
Application nor an updated man reflecting the total area of stockpiled material hauled onto the ��4,
mine site from offsite sources. No signature pages from the North Carolina Mining Permit
Application signed by Dirt Inc. or its representatives or letters stating Avolis Engineering the
agent of Dirt Inc. were submitted with the modification request package. Q�l.

L(c) The letter requesting a permit modification does not indicate the overall acreage
covered by the existing permit. O�y- 61,vl,14 Ide"ol,'i 00041'01s Ih,f 410.

General Comments :
I inspected the mine site on May 15 , 2001. Soil from some source was deposited within.
the mine site without prior approval. No wells, or dwellings other than those previously
identified were noted. The modification request letter does not contain any signatures from the 441
responsible party or his registered agent. The berm has been nearly completely constructed along r,efml?e
the southern permit boundary and no buffer exist between the berm and the adjacent highway right h,4 FFf�
of way of NC Highway 101. The map indicates silt fence installed on adjacent properties outside
the mine permit boundaries to maintain sediment control of the proposed berm. No access to the
�> C y✓i� r%'�rf 13
1 mine is left if the berm is constructed along the entire southern permit boundary as indicated on
/ the mine map submitted. A small quantity of asbestos pipe was found within the offsite generated
material being brought within the mine permit boundaries. (Waste management visited the site
but was not overly concerned with what small amount of pipe was visible. If upon grading of the
,ee material large amounts of the asbestos pipe are discovered waste management should be contacted
for guidelines for proper disposal.) No permanent mine permit boundary markers are installed.
C$rf.4i<qq
I/, M-14 b.t
During an inspection of the Jackson Pit on March 27, 2001, 1 informed Jerry Jackson about
the need to have a modification of any mine permit prior to hauling any offsite generated material
within the permit boundaries. He admitted that he had also hauled "foreign" material to the
Hancock Creek mine and stated he would immediately apply for a modification of the permit.
I did not have time to inspect the mine until May 15; 2001 for the submitted modification request.
1 will send an inspection report in reference to the deficiencies noted at the mine.

Sand-1 it, Havelock, NC; Mining Permit
Mr. Bill Crew of your once recently did a field inspection at the above -referenced mine and
indicated to the owner that a modification was needed to cover the off -site spoil that he was
bringing to the site. Mr. Jerry Jackson asked us to prepare the enclosed mine modification
drawing. The drawing shows a 2.85 acre area of additional disturbed area associated with the
spoil. The spoil will be graded to 2:1 side slopes minimum and vegetated in accordance with the
approved plan to establish a vegetated berm. Silt fencing has been specified along the front of the
berm adjacent to NC Highway 101 since the roadside swale discharges to a nearby creek. The
area on the back side of the berm drains into the mine and will not create an impact.
We are inclosing a check in the amount of S90.00 to cover the additional Erosion and
Sedimentation Control fee associated with the modification.
Should you have any questions or need any additional information, please do not hesitate to call.

and 7/13/99 and, to date, have not received a response. I am concerned
that it is going on 3 months and I have been unable to get the
information in order to draft Charles' response. This is very important
in that 1) Charles will not be pleased with our delayed response, 2) Mr.
Jackson has been assessed a penalty in the recent past and tried to
promptly respond to this NOV to avoid another penalty, and 3) by our
delayed response, Mr. Jackson may not think we are serious or consistent
in our enforcement/follow-up.
Can you or Bill please visit the site in the near future so I can draft
this response for Charles? I know you have been extremely busy on other
important matters, but this is important as well (because of the prior
record of this operator),
Thanks.

RE: Modification Request for Hancock Creek Mine
Mining Permit No. 25-56
Craven County
Neuse River Basin
Dear Mr. Jackson
This is in response to your modification request dated March 23,
1999 for the above referenced mine site. The request for modification of
the mining permit was to allow dewatering of the excavation areas (using
a pump). The application was reviewed with respect to the requirements
of the North Carolina Mining Act of 1971 (Act) and the North Carolina
Administrative Code.
Pursuant to G.S. 74-51 and NCAC Title 15A Chapter 5B .0006, the
modification request is hereby denied on the grounds that the following
denial criteria would be triggered: That the operation will violate
standards of air quality, surface water quality, or groundwater quality that
have been promulgated by the Department. As the Division of Water
Quality has advised this office that it will not issue an NPDES (discharge)
permit to allow dewatering at this site because of potential impacts on
adjacent streams and wetlands, your request to modify Mining Permit No.
25-56 is hereby denied. A copy of the Division of Water Quality's June
2, 1999 comments are enclosed for your information. Please note that
you must still apply for and obtain a Division of Water Quality permit to
cover stormwater discharge at this site.
You may appeal this denial by filing an appeal as provided in G.S.
74-61. This petition must conform to the requirements of G.S. 150 B-23
and be filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, P.O. Drawer
27447, Raleigh, North Carolina 27611-7447, telephone [phone].

The Hancock Creek Mine plans to dewater and has applied for a NPDES permit. After visits to the
site and discussions with Coleen, this office cannot recommend issuance of the General NPDES
permit. The reason for this recommendation is that the mine is adjacent to wetlands and a small
tributary which dewatering could cause impacts to these areas.
However, this mine has several outlets where stormwater leaves the property. The site will require
a NPDES permit for the discharge of stormwater. if you should have any questions, please contact

Hancock Creek Mine
Permit # 25-56
Craven County
Dear Mr. Sample,
Enclosed is an application package for a modification request. The modification
request, if approved, will allow the mine operator to dewater the mine excavations.
The mine operator is proposing to place a pump in both areas of excavation to
lower the water table during mining. The pump intake will be attached to a float to
prevent sediment discharge. The pipe will discharge into temporary sediment/retention
basins located near the natural watercourses as shown on the enclosed mine map. The
sediment/retention basins will be located within the proposed mine excavation areas,
Two copies of the modification request and a $100.00 review fee are enclosed.
Two copies of the information are being sent to Bill Crew at the Washington Regional
Office. If you have any questions or need additional information, do not hesitate to contact
me at [phone].

Dear Mr. Jackson:
This is to inform you of violations of the above referenced
mining permit.
On March 29, 1999, personnel of this office inspected your
mine, copy of inspection report enclosed, and determined that one or
more of the conditions contained in your mining permit are being
violated. The conditions being violated are as follows:
OoeratinD Condition No. 3.A: Sufficient buffer (minimum 50
foot undisturbed along Matthews Branch and 125 foot
undisturbed along Hancock Creek) shall be maintained between
any affected land and any adjoining waterway or wetland to
prevent sedimentation of that waterway or wetland from
erosion of the affected land and to preserve the integrity of the
natural watercourse or wetland.
The inspection revealed that mining activities have taken place
within 50 feet of Deep Branch, a tributary of Hancock Creek.
This is a violation of the Neuse Buffer Rules and, therefore, a
violation of the mining permit.

and the 6' earthen berm near the construction entrance. Measures are
needed to prevent runoff while earthen benns are being constructed along
the unexxcavated buffer. Natural or mechanical measures or devices are
needed along the sides of the mine adjoining Deep Branch.
5.(a.) Buffers are indicated as being outside the permit boundary on the mine
map and no reference is made to any buffers to the Power line utility
easement nor Deep Branch.
6.(b.) The applicant does not indicate a road (H- %A- 101) and numerous private
homes which are within 300 feet of the mine site.
D. RECLAMATION PLAN
S. The application makes no provision for restoration or establishment
of any permanent drainage channel to a condition minimizing erosion,
siltation and other pollution. What will applicant do to Deep Branch
and its natural watercourse through the property?
9. The schedule of reclamation does not indicate a sequence of reclamation
only reclamation to follow 6 months after completion of mining operation.
Pat ,McClain and I inspected the site on February 24, 1998. The mine site is bordered
by Hwy 101 on its Southwest side, Point Properties ( a solid waste disposal site) to the
Northwest and predominantly woodland on the other two sides. We observed houses,
trailer homes and HN%v 101 to be structures NNrithin 300 feet of the proposed mine site.
There are areas of possible wetlands bordering Hancock Creek and its tributary streams.
The topographic contours are from a U.S.G.S. map but are not plotted correctly on the
proposed mine map. An existing stream possibly Deep Branch is not indicated oil the
mine reap nor reflected by corresponding contour lines. The drainage from this branch
crosses the site but is not addressed as to what they plan to do «Zth drainage that flows
onto or through the site, other than to say that all drainage is internal. There are homes
directly across the street from the aline site and the potential for `drowning exist perhaps
this hazard should be addressed.

NOTICE OF VIOLATION FOR MINING WITHOUT A PERMIT
Dirt, Incorporated
ATTN: Mr. Jerry A. Jackson
Post Office Box 1025
Havelock, North Carolina 28532
Dear Mr. Jackson:
This is to inform you that you and/or your firm are violating the Mining Act of
1971 by operating a mine without a permit as required by North Carolina General
Statutes (hereinafter referred to as NCGS) 74-46, et seq., as amended.
On February 24, 1998, personnel of this office inspected a mining operation
being undertaken on the northeast side of NC 101, approximately 1.6 miles west of
the intersection of NC 101 and SR 1717 in Craven County. Personnel of this office
have also determined that you and/or your firm are the operator of this mine.
Pursuant to G.S. 74-59 of the Mining Act of 1971, no person may operate a
mine without first obtaining a mining permit and also posting a bond to ensure that
the site is reclaimed. Mining is defined by NCGS 74-49 as:
The breaking of the surface soil in order to facilitate or accomplish the
extraction or removal of minerals, ores, or other solid matter.
Any activity or process constituting all or part of a process for the extraction or
removal of minerals, ores, soils, and other solid matter from their original
location.
The preparation, washing, cleaning, or other treatment of minerals, ores, or
other solid matter so as to make them suitable for commercial, industrial, or
construction use.
