Subject : Compliance Inspection Report:
Permit No. NCG 020155
Southside Materials—Shelton Quarry
Caswell County
Dear Mr. Raza:
On February 4, 2020, Brandon Wise and Zac Lentz, inspectors with the North Carolina Department of
Environmental Quality(NCDEQ)—Division of Energy, Minerals, and Land Resources, inspected the facility located at
1524 Rock Quarry Road in Pelham. The purpose of this visit was to conduct a compliance inspection as part of
NCDEQ's goal to inspect all permitted facilities. The inspection consisted of review of the Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan (SWPPP)and each of its components,review of the facility outfall, as well as the review of the overall
site conditions.
Permit:
This facility has General Stormwater Permit NCG020155 to discharge stormwater from industrial activity
associated with mining and quarrying of non-metallic minerals (except fuel),mine excavation, processing, and
vehicle maintenance; along with authorized wastewater point source discharges from mining operations under the
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System(NPDES). This version of the permit was issued on October 1,2015
and will expire on September 30, 2020. The facility has been permitted since September 30, 1993.
Records/Reports:
This facility is required to develop and maintain a SWPPP in accordance with Part III of the permit. All
qualitative and analytical monitoring records are required to be maintained with the SWPPP for a minimum of five (5)
years. Under this permit,analytical monitoring is required under current operating procedures. The facility records show
sampling is being completed and is kept onsite in the office. Annual updates to the SWPPP are required in accordance
with Part 111, Section 8 of the permit. While some records were shown of annual updates with no changes to the permit
these should be printed out, signed, and kept with the SWPPP. Training records are required in accordance with Part III,
Section 6 of the permit. There were no training records kept with the permit. It is required that some form of document
showing who received training and when be kept with the SWPPP. Overall the SWPPP was well put together just lacked
documentation of some parts of the permit. A Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure(SPCC) was included as
part of the SWPPP due to the trigger of having over 1,320 gallons of above ground oil storage. This plan was also well
put together and included all required aspects of the plan.
Facility Site Review:
This facility operates as a large stone quarry with a large pit that is over 50% of the current footprint of the
facility. There are multiple ponds on site that are used as a closed loop system that allow for a majority of the stormwater
that falls on site to be used in on site processes. These ponds have a pump system so that if they are needed to be pumped
down the water is pumped back into the pond located in the pit. A single outfall is located in the northern section of the
facility that discharges offsite. This pond mainly catches stormwater from a storage are located in the area and catches

very little stormwater from actual mining process. The majority of the stone crushing is done to the east of the main pit
near the railroad tracks. This area had very good housekeeping and showed signs of being maintained very well. Just
west of the office was the maintenance area where any oil containers were located and kept within secondary containment.
The largest tank onsite was a 10,000-gallon double walled diesel tank. The maintenance and storage sheds were kept up
very well and did not have any signs of staining from leaking oil. Overall site conditions were very good for a mining
operation.
Effluent Receiving Waters:
Effluent from this facility drains into an unnamed tributary of Tardy Branch, class"C"waters of the Roanoke
River Basin. Please note that currently this class of waters does not have any extra protections but over time
classifications can change.
Self-Monitoring Program:
This facility is required to provide qualitative and analytical monitoring twice annually. The outfall discharge
from the facility is expected to be properly maintained and monitored. At the time of the inspection monitoring was being
completed and records showed regular inspections were being completed as well. Monitoring records showed limits were
being met during the sampling.
There are no additional comments or changes to the currently operating permit. Please continue to keep up the
facility and continue to monitor the stormwater outfalls and discharges. If you have any questions or need additional
information,please contact Brandon Wise at(336) 776-9660 or [e-mail].
