Autry Grading, Inc. owns and operates a sand pit under permit number 26-32, located at
Doc Bennett Road, north of Interstate 95 near the intersection of Radar Road in Hope Mills,
Cumberland County, North Carolina, as designated by Deed Book 5334 on Pages 656-659
(Figure 1). This site is permitted for sand mining with erosion control plan approved by
NCDEQ. The mining permit is 34.25 acres. The LCID landfill boundary and waste
footprints are shown on Drawing COOL Currently, the footprint of the LCID landfill is
approximately 6.54 acres. The proposed maximum extent of the landfill is 13.08 acres. The
continuing development does not impact any additional properties. This parcel is zoned
M(P) (Planned Industrial) and is approved by the Cumberland County local government for
the next 5-year phase via an approved Conditional Use Permit. This site meets all
requirements of the Cumberland County Zoning Ordinance. The Cumberland County local
government approval is in Appendix B.
In 2023, Autry Grading retained Anderson Engineering to renew the 5-Year Permit
Application to continue processing and disposing of land clearing materials such as stumps,
brush, limbs, rock, brick, and block located inside their permitted Arm Pit Mine. Autry
Grading is the only entity permitted to use this disposal site. This site is not permitted for
public disposal of any kind of waste.

?. S-YEAR PHASE OF OPERATIONS
An individual permit is required by Rule .0563 for the construction and operation of a Land
Clearing and Inert Debris landfill when the facility is to be operated for the disposal of land
clearing waste, inert debris, untreated wood, and yard trash. Operations must be
consistent and in compliance with the local government solid waste plan as approved by the
Division of Solid Waste Management and the disposal area is greater than two acres in
size. Individual permits for LCID landfills shall be issued for not more than five years.
The application for 5-Year permit renewal requires two cross -sections of each operational
areas that show the current elevations, proposed elevations, the proposed elevation at the
end of the 5-year phase of operation and the proposed final elevations. The excavation
drawing must show the separation to groundwater and bedrock at least four feet.
a . ,
Current filling operations is shown on drawing C 101. Phase 1 has been filled and not
accepting any more waste. Permanent seeding has been established. A portion of Phase 2
has been filled with LCID waste.
Cross -sections of the landfill are shown on drawing C102. The cross -sections were prepared
by Anderson Engineering & Associates, P.A. based on the site survey conducted on May 31,
2023 and information provided by Joyce Engineering, Inc.
The 5-year landfill development shown on drawing C 103 is based on the average of the
previous five years disposal rate at approximately 11,000 cy per year. The operator plans to
fill Phase 2 to the west end. Commencement of Phase 3 is not anticipated until the year
2028.
The proposed final elevations are shown on drawing CP-04 by Joyce Engineering.
Five test pits were excavated on the pit floor on April 6, 2011 to investigate seasonal high
groundwater elevation in the pit. Each pit was excavated to a minimum of six feet below
the surface. Each pit observed for a few hours for seepage and determined dry, i.e. no
groundwater was identified to seep in the excavated pits; therefore the seasonal high
groundwater level is six feet or more below the current ground surface elevation. From the
field observations of the excavated pits, separation to the seasonal high ground water is
greater than the minimum of four feet.

It is proposed that the landfill is divided into four phases. Phase 1 and 2 are permitted and
active at this time. These areas are approximately 3.27 acres each and hold a gross volume
of +/- 166,000 cy of waste. Phase 1 is partially seeded and permanent grass has been
established. Phase 2 is partially seeded except for one acre of active use. The active area
has temporary erosion control measures in place to prevent sediment from leaving the site.
There is an existing active soil access road leading to the existing active areas of the landfill
and mine. At this time no further waste will be added to Phase 1. Permanent seeding has
been established and erosion control measures have been put in place.
Phase 2 adjoins Phase 1 and currently holds a gross volume of +/- 64,500 cy of waste. It will
continue to be developed in a northeasterly direction. Phase 2 has a remaining life
expectancy of approximately five and one half years with an available net fill volume of +/-
61,000 cy, based on the previous five years disposal rate of 11,000 cy per year. Phase 2
shall be covered with soil monthly, or when the active area reaches one acre in size,
whichever occurs first. All non -active areas will have temporary seeding and temporary
slope drains, swales, and diversions to carry stormwater to the existing and proposed
retention basins to prevent sediment from leaving the site. When Phase 2 reaches capacity,
permanent seeding and erosion control measures will be established.
Phases 3 and 4 will continue north of Phase 2 and be filled in an easterly direction in the
same manner as Phase 2. Erosion control will continue to be ongoing with only one acre
being active at a time. The remaining life expectancy of Phase 3 and 4 landfills are
approximately eight and one half years, assuming the disposal rate of 11,000 cy per year.
During all phases of this development, the Autry Grading will maintain a minimum four -
foot separation between the seasonal high water table and the bottom of the filled areas.
(Information regarding the seasonal high water table was submitted with the original
application.) As this landfill expands, care will be taken to ensure a continued four -foot
buffer between the bottom elevation of the waste and seasonal high water table.
All slopes shall be no more than 3:1 and filled areas will be covered with at least one foot of
earthen material available on -site. No filling will take place less than 100 feet in any
direction from the property lines or within the wetlands. Erosion will be controlled in
accordance with the previously approved Erosion Control Plan. Special care will be taken
to protect waters of the US including jurisdictional wetlands on -site from any impact.
Wetlands are delineated on the Current Conditions Sheet C 101. F.I.R.M. Map
3720043400J dated January 5, 2007, shows the parcel is located within Zone X, which is
outside the 0.2% annual chance flood plain. This site does contain 6.90 acres of wetlands as
shown on the plan included in C001. The southwest property is the Big Sandy Run. All
runoff within the facility boundary is directed toward specified drainage areas, where it will
be treated before being discharged. Waste shall not be disposed of in or within 50 feet of the
delineated wetlands area.
An access road has been established and is maintained around the waste boundary for all
types of vehicles including emergency and fire -fighting vehicles and equipment.

1 OPERATIONS PLAN
The landfill receives waste generated from Autry Grading, Inc., site development activities. At this
time, Autry Grading, Inc. has no plans to request service for waste outside its own needs. Public
disposal of any waste is not allowed under the LCID permit. Minor changes to the 2017 permitted
Operations Plan have been made for this 5-year permit renewal application. The revised 2022
Operations Plan is included in Appendix D. The updated sections include 3.0, 4.0, and all
subsections contained within.
An estimate of the quantity of waste to be disposed in the LCID disposal area is provided in Table 1.
The estimate is based on the airspace provided by proposed base and final grades, and the current
ratio of incoming waste to the in -place volume of waste and the amount of cover soil in the fill.
Allowances of the airspace occupied by the cap were made. The estimate for airspace was
determined using AutoCAD.
1. Estimate for the total airspace in cubic yards considered to be the total volume between the
bottom grades and the top of the cap system.
2. Estimate the volume (cubic yards) occupied by the closure cap.
3. Subtract the cap volume from the total airspace volume to estimate the net airspace
available for waste disposal.
4. Assume a 9:1 waste to soil ratio.
5. Assume incoming waste to the in -place volume of waste and the amount of cover soil in the
fill.
6. Annual disposal volume is estimated at 16,000 cubic yards due to hurricane debris within
the last five years. The next five year disposal volume is expected to return to the normal
estimated volume of 11,000 cubic yards and to increase at a rate of 2% per year.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. Andrew Hammonds and David Powell with the section met with Robert Knowles and some of his staff to
discuss the 2/5/20 inspection and observed violations.
2. Section Staff did not inspect the waste cells during inspection but wanted to discuss a path to resolving current
violations.
3. Mr. Knowles indicated drillers mud will no longer be accepted at the site and the hauler which brought the
loads, mentioned during last inspection, was not allowed back anymore.
4. The current working face is a vertical wall of waste. Backing up to edge and dumping waste over then pushing
soil on top is not how the landfill should be constructed nor its design to operate. Keep working face below an
acre and compacting once reaches thirty days or a full one acre in size, then covering with soil and building
upon that, is correct way.
5. Future of the LCID was discussed in regards to operating according to the rules. Mr. Knowles is considering
just hauling his waste to another approved site and shutting this one down but is unsure at this point.
6. During the site visit, it appeared that some sloping and soil cover addition had occurred.
7. Andrew Hammonds stressed the importance of covering and layering waste with soil monthly or when working
face reaches one acre in size, as the rules states, but also to reduce risk of fire in the LCID in the future and to
conserve space.
8. Phase 1 needed additional soil cover, which some has been added, but needs vegetation established for long
term management and to prevent soil erosion. It is recommended a mixture of an Annual grass, Rye, and Warm
Season Perennial grasses, such as Bahia grass, be used once sloping and soil cover is completed. Be vigilant in
repairing eroded areas as they occur.
9. Corrective measures are necessary to bring the landfill into compliance and should be completed within
14 days' receipt of this inspection report or a Notice of Violation may be issued. David Powell will inspect
facility at that time.
Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding this inspection report.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. David Powell met with Bobby Knowles onsite to inspect corrective actions from previous inspection.
2. The current working face is covered with soil, graded and sloped correctly.
3. Cell 2 working face and Cell 1 have had soil added, been graded and sloped. Cell 1 has grass established, but
be sure perennial grasses take root and hold soil for long term soil erosion reduction. Also, the area which had
the drillers mud has been covered. Be sure unacceptable wastes are not accepted.
4. Cell 1 still had a leachate seep at EOW marker near entrance road but was not leaving. While onsite Mr.
Knowles and his crew moved additional soil around and on this area. Please monitor and repair the area as
needed. Your permit states, "leachate must be properly managed on site using best management
practices."
5. Road has been regraded and holes fixed all the way around the LCID.
6. Moving forward it is important to cover and layer the waste with soil monthly or when working face reaches
one acre in size, as the rules states, but also to reduce risk of fire in the LCID in the future and to conserve
space.
7. After rain events, check for leachate seeps, the road for washouts, previous closed cells and working face on
open cell for erosion and proper covering/slope on all cells. Fix eroded areas with soil cover and reestablish
perennial grass cover as needed.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. David Powell met with Bobby Knowles onsite to inspect LCID. Permit expires July, 17, 2023 and renewal
application should be submitted at least 6 months before permit expiration. It can be submitted sooner and that
is encouraged.
2. Site has a lockable gate and a sign with permit number, contact info etc. LCID is not open to the public but
still is required to have signage stating, "...that no hazardous waste or liquid waste can be received at the
acilit ." Please add this to current signage.
Permit, Attachment 3, Part 1, 9. Signs must be posted at the entrance to the facility that state that no
hazardous waste or liquid waste can be received at the facility; and that provide information on dumping
procedures, the hours of operation, the permit number, and other pertinent information. Traffic signs or
markers must be provided as necessary to promote an orderly traffic pattern to and from the discharge
area and to maintain efficient operating conditions.
3. The current working face is covered with soil, graded and sloped 3:1 correctly. Cover soil is staged as well.
Good job.
4. Cell 2 is where current working face is located. Cell 1 has grass established, but be sure perennial grasses
take root and hold soil for long term soil erosion reduction. Establish grass cover on older areas of the
LCID which won't receive waste for few months and also be sure they have appropriate intermediate cover.

5. Almost all the waste was currently covered at time of inspection. Some dimensional lumber was uncovered and
needed covering soon. These wastes are from making Trusses and are not treated wood, based on conversation
with Mr. Knowles. Sourced from Contec (Tom Hollandshed). No unapproved wastes were visible.
6. Cell 1 still had a leachate seep at EOW marker near entrance road but was not leaving. Soil had been added to
address the wet area. Please be sure leachate doesn't run off and the seep is repaired appropriately.
7. Road was in good shape despite rain recently. Good job.

8. Cell identification signs were visible around perimeter of cells and some traffic control markers, but additional
EOW (edge of waste) markers are needed. The cells are considerably long from one end to the other and
this will help identify each cells boundaries for Section staff and onsite operators. Mr. Knowles agreed
and will install very soon additional markers along the boundaries down the side of each cells and on
each corner of each cell. They should be visible one to the next. Suggest using tall white PVC pine.
These will be inspected next visit.

continuing of the LCID area is shown on sheet C 103 and Final Grading Plan on sheet CP-04.
No horizontal expansion from the sand mining area is proposed. Within the LCID disposal
unit, clean wood waste will be collected and ground for use as mulch.
3. GENERAL OPERATING CONDITIONS
This facility collects stumps, limbs, leaves, yard waste, concrete, brick, block, non -treated
wood, and other wastes specifically approved by the Division of Waste Management, Solid
Waste Section. This facility shall only accept the waste permitted to receive. The LCID
waste shall be placed to a smallest area feasible and compacted as densely as possible.
An official operating file shall be maintained and accessible at the office of Autry Grading
office. This file shall contain Permits, Operational Plan, Inspections, Correspondence, Site
Drawings, and any other documents used in the operation of the facility.
3.2 Iffours of
Operation
The hours of operation are Monday through Friday. Open hours fluctuate based on the
waste stream or other conditions. The LCID will be closed on major holidays. This site does
not allow public access. An entrance sign identifies the facility, permit number, and
emergency contact information. After hours emergencies shall be directed to Kenneth Autry
at [phone].
3.3 Site Access and Safety
e
Access to the site is controlled through a locked gate entrance, which prevents access after
operating hours. During the hours of operation, traffic is routed from the entrance gate via
access road to the LCID disposal area. This facility only serves Autry Grading and is limited
to deliveries by employees only. No other individual, company, or entity shall be allowed to
dispose of waste on the site. An attendant shall be on -site during operational hours to

I'Vaste Accepted
4 Type Source, and Qztantity of'
The landfill receives waste generated from Autry Grading, Inc. site development properties.
Only land clearing and inert debris such as stumps, limbs, leaves, yard waste, concrete,
brick, block, and non -treated wood as defined in the permit is acceptable. The Division of
Solid Waste may approve other wastes for disposal at the LCID disposal area. Requests for
approval shall be submitted in accordance with Division policy. Under normal operation
circumstances, this facility has an average disposal rate of 11,000 cy per year. However,
during this past five year period, due to several hurricanes and an atypical amount of
disaster debris, this facility had an average disposal rate of 16,000 cy per year. Once the
disaster debris was cleaned up, the facility resumed normal operating procedures. The
continuing development does not impact any additional properties.
On or before August 1 of each year, Autry Grading will report to the Solid Waste Section the
amount of waste received at this facility and disposed of in the landfill. Data will be
transmitted on forms prescribed by the Section at the website below:
https•//www deq.nc.�,yov/about/divisions/waste-management/solid-waste-section/solid-waste-
permitted-facility-information-and-guidance/annual-reporting-local-government-and-solid-
waste-facilityreporting. The report will include the following:
• The reporting period shall be for the previous year beginning July 1 and ending June 30.
• The amount of waste received and landfilled in cubic yards, compiled monthly by origin
and by specific waste type; and
• The completed report shall be forwarded to the Regional Waste Management
Specialist.
No hazardous or liquid waste is accepted. The landfill will not accept barrels and drums,
other waste specifically banned from landfill disposal by rule or statute, such as appliances,
household garbage, construction & demolition debris, lead acid batteries, whole tires, used
oil, or aluminum cans. The disposal of any material other than land clearing waste, inert
debris, untreated wood, and yard trash is strictly prohibited. Autry Grading, Inc. will notify
the Division within 24 hours of attempted disposal of any prohibited waste.
3.6 Litter, Air Quality, and.Dust Control
Blowing litter shall be controlled by compacting the waste at the working face. Temporary
fences and/or dikes may be constructed to contain windblown material during operations.
Landfill personnel shall pick up windblown litter as necessary in and around the active
landfill area. Open burning of waste, including yard waste and brush, is prohibited. Dusty
road surfaces shall be sprayed with water from a water truck as needed during windy or dry
weather.
Incoming loads of waste are observed by the site operator for evidence of flames, smoke, or
the odor of burning material. If evidence of fire exists, the landfill operator shall evaluate
the situation to determine the best way to extinguish the fire. Small fires can be controlled
using fire extinguishers or soil located on -site. If necessary, the local fire department shall

be called to handle the fire. Fires that occur at the landfill shall be reported verbally to the
Division within 24 hours and in writing within 15 days.
If a fire occurs at the waste disposal area, the operator calls Autry Grading, Inc. office to
report the size of the fire. When possible, the landfill operator shall utilize the bulldozer on
the site to separate the waste/debris from the path of the fire or cover the fire with on -site
soil to smother the fire. Once the fire is segregated, the site operator shall evaluate the
situation and determine if additional assistance is necessary from the fire department.
Fire extinguishers are located on each piece of equipment on -site and equipment operators
are trained in their use. Fire extinguishers shall be used for small fires. A stockpile of soil
is maintained near the working face for use in extinguishing surface fires. The fire
department shall be notified in the case of fires too large for fire extinguishers or soil. In the
event the fire requires large volumes of water over an extended period of time, a ladder
truck will be dispatched to flood the fire with large amounts of water from an elevated
height. Water contained in the sedimentation pond can serve as emergency reservoirs to aid
local firefighters in the extinguishing of fires.
3,,8 VVaste.Placement and Compaction
The waste shall be off-loaded in the active area as close as possible to the working face, then
pushed to the desired area and compacted with a dozer. The length of the daily working face
shall be maintained in order to provide adequate space for vehicles to maneuver. The
landfill shall store dedicated equipment to handle the waste. Equipment may include a
trackhoe, dozer, front-end loader, and pull behind pan for spreading the daily cover soil.
3.9 Cover Material
Adequate soil cover shall be applied monthly, or when the active area reaches one acre in
size, whichever occurs first by Section .0566 (4). Compaction is achieved by passing heavy
equipment over the soil at least 2 to 3 times. The waste may be covered more frequently if
necessary. The disposal area shall be covered with a minimum of one foot of suitable soil
cover sloped to allow any surface water to run off in a controlled manner. Further action
may be required in order to correct any condition which is or may become injurious to the
human health or nuisance to the community. When the landfill will be inactive for at least
120 days, additional cover material shall be placed to provide a minimum of 12 inches of
intermediate cover over the waste.
Upon completion of each phase of development, vegetative ground cover shall be established
within 120 calendar days. Surface water runoff shall be diverted away from the working
face without impounding water over waste. Adequate erosion control measures, such as a
combination of drainage ditches, diversion berms, vegetative cover, sediment traps, and
basins, shall be utilized to prevent silt from leaving the site and prevent on -site erosion.
Construction, design, and maintenance of sediment and erosion control features shall be in
accordance with applicable sections of the "North Carolina Erosion and Sedimentation
Control Planning and Design Manual". Drainage shall be directed to ditches that either
exist now or will be constructed and convey the flow to sediment control features. Erosion
Control measures were satisfied with the landfill during initial site permitting.

4. CLOSURE
4-1 Closure Activities
Closure of this disposal area shall occur in accordance with the North Carolina Solid Waste
Management Rules (15A NCAC 13B .0560)
42 Closure Criteria
4.2.1 Cap Design
The disposal area shall be covered with a minimum of 12 inches suitable soil cover,
sloped to allow any surface water to run off in a controlled manner, within 120 days of
the last disposal operation. Vegetative ground cover must be established within 30
working days upon completion of any phases. Proposed final grading contours are
provided on sheet CP-04. Final contours have been designed with post -settlement
surface slopes of at least five percent on top of the cell. The following components are
proposed in the cap from bottom to top:
a. Compacted Soil Layer — A layer of suitable soil, at least 12 inches thick and
compacted in place, shall be placed over the waste.
b. Vegetation — If site conditions warrant it, topsoil shall be placed as needed prior to
seeding the area. Seeding shall follow the "North Carolina Erosion and
Sedimentation Control Planning and Design Manual", and recommendations from
local agricultural specialists. Mulch and erosion matting shall be used as needed to
control erosion and promote vegetative growth. Areas found to be sparsely covered
shall be revegetated.
4.2.2 Cap Settlement and Stability
Non -uniform settlement of the closure can be expected over the entire landfill area.
The primary mechanism of settlement is waste consolidation due to decomposition of
the land filled material. Long-term settlement is typically 5 to 15 percent over 20 to 30
years; however, settlement of about 5 percent can be expected in the first few months
following waste placement. A significant amount of waste consolidation will likely
have occurred by the time each portion of the landfill is closed.
After cap portions are completed, monthly inspections of the final cover shall be
conducted to look for areas of the cap that might have experienced displacement
(ponding, deep cracks, soil creep, etc.). All problem areas shall be repaired
immediately.
4.2.3 Drainage and Erosion
A combination of drainage ditches, diversion berms, vegetative cover, sediment traps
and basins shall control drainage and erosion. Construction, design, and maintenance
of sediment and erosion control features shall be in accordance with applicable sections
of the "North Carolina Erosion and Sedimentation Control Planning and Design
Manual". Drainage will be directed to perimeter ditches that either exist now or will
be constructed. These ditches will receive runoff from the final cap, conveying the flow
to sediment control features.

4. 3 Wacste Volume
An estimate of the quantity of waste to be disposed of is provided in Table 2. The calculation
is based on the airspace provided by proposed base and final grades, and assumptions
regarding the density of waste and the amount of cover soil in the fill. Allowances for the
airspace occupied by the cap are included. The estimate was determined using the following
steps:
1. Estimate the total airspace in cubic yards using Softdesk Civil/Survey software.
The total airspace includes the total volume between the bottom grades and the
top of the cap system.
2. Estimate the volume (cubic yards) occupied by the closure cap.
3. Subtract the cap volume from the total airspace volume to estimate the net
airspace available for waste disposal.
4. Assume a 9:1 waste to soil ratio.
5. Assumed ratio of incoming waste to the in -place volume of waste and the
amount of cover soil in the fill.
6. Annual disposal volume from the past five years is estimated at 16,000 cubic
yards. Beginning July 2023, annual disposal volume estimates shall return to
normal at 11,000 cubic yards with an increase at a rate of 2% per year.
4,4 Closing PlanSchedule
The LCID has a projected remaining operating life of approximately 13 years (See Table 2).
However, landfill is designed to operate in phases so that it can be closed incrementally as
final contours are reached in various areas. Prior to beginning closure of any portion of the
facility, Autry Grading, Inc. shall notify the Division that a Notice of Intent to close the
facility has been initiated and placed in the operating record. Post -closure activities will be
conducted at the landfill as directed by the Division of Waste Management.
3 Posting and Benin
At least one sign shall remain posted at the entrance to the facility reporting of the facility
closing. A notice shall remain posted at the entrance prohibiting the further acceptance of
waste materials. The site shall be secured through the use of gates with locks, fencing,
and/or natural barriers. Security will be inspected and maintained throughout the post -
closure period. If necessary, the site will be baited for rodent and vector control before the
final closure has begun.
4,6 Post -Closure Maintenance
Post -closure maintenance will be conducted as needed after final closure. Monitoring shall
include monthly inspection of the final cover system. Maintenance needs identified during
inspections will be handled as soon as possible after detection. Immediate action will be
taken upon the discovery of any dangerous or imminent threats to human health or the
environment. Minor cap maintenance may be deferred until there is a sufficient amount of
work to justify the mobilization of equipment and personnel. Unusual or extreme

maintenance needs due to natural disasters or vandalism shall be addressed on a case by
case basis. Routine quarterly inspections shall be conducted throughout the post -closure
period.
Inspection Plan
Routine inspections shall be conducted throughout the post -closure care period. These
inspections shall be carried out quarterly unless problems are detected that indicate more
frequent visits are warranted. Potential impacts to the public and environment shall be
considered in determining the inspection frequency.
4a8 Secti,
Access to the site will be controlled by the use of barriers and gates at the entrance. These
control devices shall be maintained throughout the post -closure care period, and inspected
as part of the monthly inspection program. All barriers and gates shall be clearly marked
with signs stating the name and nature of the facility and the person to contact in case of
emergency or breach of security.
4R9 Erosion any Sedinnentation Control :F7
Stormwater management features proposed in the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan
are designed to function throughout the post -closure care period. Drainage ditches and
sediment control features shall be inspected and maintained as needed to control surface
water runoff and erosion.
4.10 Post-Cf,31osure Land Use
The primary land use for the site after closure of the landfill will be open dormant green
space. Limited passive recreational uses may be proposed at a later time.
S. EROSION N AND SEDIMENTL REQUIREMENTS
Existing erosion and sediment controls have been designed in accordance with all applicable
requirements, as well as, all future structures. As required, the facility will be operated in a
manner, which will not cause a discharge of pollutants into waters of the United States,
including wetlands, that violates any requirements of the Clean Water Act, including, but
not limited to, the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
requirements, pursuant to Section 402. The facility shall not cause the discharge of
nonpoint source of pollution to waters of the United States, including wetlands, that violates
any requirement of an area -wide or State-wide water quality management plan that has
been approved under Section 208 or 319 of the Clean Water Act, as amended.
Surface water shall be diverted from the operational area and shall not be impounded over
or in waste. Drainage structures and embankment slopes shall be regularly inspected for
erosion, and maintained with re -seeding, fertilizer, and other means, as necessary, to
promote a healthy stand of vegetation. Vegetation on these slopes shall be mowed at least
once a year.
