Dear Mr. Johnson:
NORTH CAROLINA
Environmental Quality
January 7, 2022
This letter is in response to your letter sent on December 17, 2021, requesting the approval of a temporary exemption
that would allow outside material from the NCDOT 1-26 widening project to be brought on site for the purposes of
recycling and reuse. The placement of the material is noted on the site map dated December 14, 2021. This request
is hereby approved and is contingent upon the following: The offsite material storage and processing will be
temporary in nature and solely for the purpose of the NCDOT 1-26 widening project.
Please attach this approval letter your existing mining permit for future reference. The mine name and permit
number on the permit document shall remain the same as before this modification.
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 lies with you.
As a reminder, your permitted acreage at this site is 288.0 acres and the amount of land you are approved to disturb
is 260.7 acres.
Please advise this office at (919) 707-9220 should you have any questions concerning this matter.
Sincere ,
David Miller, PE
State Mining Engineer
