WQ0002831 DECEMBER 7, 1992 Prepared by: R. F. Hoffman Checked by: Louie M. Walters, Jr. PE 't51f41llllfl C � 0' 7520 l Vd 1 • INTRODUCTION This request is to modify the Washwater Recycle System at Carolina Sunrock Corporation's Butner Quarry. The existing system was permitted and constructed in 1985. The new system will perform the same function as the existing but allow for increased plant production with lower maintenance costs. The new system will be located adjacent to the existing system (see attached drawing 92-221). There will be no change in distances to down slope water ways. DESIGN INFORMATION The new system will be comprised of 4 settling ponds and 1 finish, gathering pond (see drawings 92-221 & 92-222). The return water from the stone processing plant will be conducted by 18" Corrugated Metal Pipe (CMP) to a concrete flow diverter box. There will be a diverter box at the head end of each settling pond. The diverter box will send the return water to the pond at the diverter box or on to the next diverter box and pond. Only one settling pond will be used at a time. The water will enter the settling pond and slow down because of the pond size. The water will be retained in the settling pond, depending upon the flow rate and pond condition, between 1.3 to 11 hours. This amount of ® time and with the use of the NALCO coagulant, will allow the rock fines to settle out and the water to clarify. The water will flow out the settling pond over an adjustable weir into the finish, gathering pond. This finish pond will retain the water for another 3 to 6 hours. The pond dimensions, capacities and detention times are attached. The water will be pumped back into the stone processing plant by 2 - Crane Deming, figure 5062 pumps with 40 Hp electric motors. The pumps are rated at 600 GPM at 182 ft. of head each. The water supply line from the pumping station to the stone processing plant will be 6" and 811 diameter schedule 40 pipe. The new supply line will connect into the existing water system near the base of the wash screen. The processing plant will not change. The existing wash screens, supply / return piping and sand dewaterer will remain. No high water alarms will be required since the system is designed to operate on gravity. All water is treated by the time it passes through the settling ponds. The finish pond collects the treated water as a safety measure. Anv discharges due to rain fall runoff will be sent throu+ PAGE 1 of 11 0 • the settling ponds as normal flow, then through the finish pond. If the finish pond then becomes over full, the excess flow from this pond returns to the old quarry through a 24" CMP drain. The old quarry provides for a further detention time and settling of any remaining rock fines in the process water. Both the settling ponds and the old quarry contain a volume greater than the required 10 year, 24 hour storm event as required by current regulations. All make up water for the washwater system is pumped up from the old quarry. No back up electric system will be required since the system is gravity operated. The water pumps are used only to supply water to the processing plant and the water is gravity returned. CONSTRUCTION The settling ponds will be built upon undisturbed earth and fill. Since the washwater system is handling only processed rock fines, no ground water contamination is possible. The bed rock under lying the settling ponds is a Diabase Traprock of massive structure. There are very few joints and seams. The existing quarry has very little inflow of ground water. The water that is pumped from the quarry is mostly storm run off. With the Diabase under the ponds, no ground water in flow is expected from the ponds. The ponds sides will be constructed of materials borrowed from the site. All fills will be compacted to 95% of maximum Proctor density. The bottoms and sides will then be lined with compacted ABC to form an impermeable layer. The overflow weirs will be constructed of concrete and wood. Any areas where there is a possibility of erosion will be either concrete lined or treated with erosion control stone. The water freeboard and elevations will be maintained as shown on the attached drawings. The weir flow design is attached. The ponds numbered 1, 2, & 5 will be constructed first. The existing ponds will then be drained into the new settling ponds no. 1 & 2 and the new system placed into operation. The old ponds will then be backfilled and reclaimed for stone storage and stockpiling. Ponds no. 3 & 4 will then be constructed as shown on the drawings. PAGE 2 of 11 0 C7 C, OPERATION The settling ponds no. 1 through 4 will be operated one at a time. The return water from the stone processing plant will be gravity fed into one pond and the rock fines allowed to settle out. The treated water will then flow over the weir at the end of the settling pond into the finish pond. When the pond in operation fills to 3/4 full of rock tines, the return water will be diverted to the next pond. The first pond will then be allowed to settle further. A portable pump will then be used to empty the excess water from the first pond into the operating pond. As the first pond continues to settle and the rock fines begin to dry, the rock fines will be removed by mechanical means and trucked to a storage area on the site. The rock fines when dried will then be either sold for use as fill or used on site for construction projects around the quarry. The rock fines from the ponds do not contain any hazardous wastes. These fines are an extremely pulverized version of the Diabase Traprock being mined on the site for use in roads, buildings, and industrial processes. As each pond is in operation, another pond will be prepared for use in the next cycle. This cycling will continue between the four settling ponds. The NALCO 9152 coagulant will continue being used to help the rock fines to settle out. The relocated ponds, being larger in capacity, should require a lower application rate of the coagulant due to the longer detention time.
