wooded parcel. ESC measures will be installed in the areas indicated on the
Mine Map. Boulders and rocks will be harvest with a meduim sized excavator,
placed in a medium sized tracked truck and hauled down an existing road to the
stockpile area indicated on the Mine Map. From there material will be loaded
onto a dump truck and hauled out along an existing road indicated on the Mine
Map. Disturbed areas will be revegetated.
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 control for mine excavairon(s), 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 erosion control measures on the mine map(s) and
provide typical cross secdonskonstrucfion details of each measure. Engineering designs and calculations are required
to justify the adequacy of any proposed measures.
Small areas will be disturbed at a time. The following ESC practices, as
described in the July 2001 NC Erosion and Sediment Control Field Manual, will
be used. Right -of -Way Diversions (Field Manual Practice 6.23) will be installed
at the locations indicated on the Mine Map. As new disturbed, Temporary
Seeding, Permanent Seeding and Mulching (Field Manual Practices 6.10, 6.11
and 6.14) will be applied to stabilize and revegetate those areas. As new areas
within the 50 acres are opened for use additional ESC practices may be
needed.
3. A) Will the operation involve wash in the material mined, recycling process water, or other wastewater handling?
YES NO
If yes, briefly describe all such processes including any chemicals to be used
13) will the operation involve discharging fresh or wastewater from the mine or plant as a point discharge to the waters
of the State?
YES ®NO
if yes, briefly describe the nature of the discharge and locate all proposed discharge points (along with their method of
stabilizaflon) on the mine map(s).
