2. Site access is located off US 19 Highway. The site entrance is opposite of Fox Grape Hollow Road in Madison
County, NC.
3. Site access roads were maintained during this inspection.
4. The facility operational area appeared to occupy less than 2-acres during this inspection (photo #1). Since the
previous inspection, it appeared beneficial fill material (crushed asphalt) had been placed on -site to increase the pad
depth of the operational area.
5. Post -inspection, on December 12, 2019, the Section contacted Mrs. Clara Ray, site owner/manager, to discuss facility
operations. As discussed with Mrs. Ray post -inspection, since the site has not been utilized for some time, please ensure
minimum buffer requirements are maintained for the facility. As discussed, a 50-foot buffer must be maintained
between all property lines and compost areas, and a 50-foot buffer must be maintained between perennial streams and
rivers and compost areas. To ensure maintenance of minimum buffer requirements at the site, the Section recommends
the facility install and maintain buffer stakes/markers at the site.
6. During this inspection, processed materials were observed along the northern area of the site (photo #2). The
processed materials were segregated by gabions/concrete barriers. As noted above in Additional Comment #5, please
ensure a 50-foot buffer is maintained between the site and the Ballard property (parcel north of the site).
7. As discussed post -inspection, facility personnel stated the site is currently only used for the storage of processed
materials and equipment and grinding of materials is not occurring at this time. During this inspection, some equipment
was observed at the site.
8. During this inspection, no unpermitted waste was observed on -site. Continue to maintain waste screening efforts at
the facility.
9. Continue to maintain all erosion control measures at the site as necessary. As discussed post -inspection, the Section
recommends silt fence be installed at the toe (bottom) of the fill material along the western side of the site, adjacent to
US 19 Highway.
