Re: Pine Hall Road Landfill Stormwater Pipe Removal Project
Permit No.: 8503-INDUS
Belews Creek Steam Station Stokes County
Belews Creek, North Carolina 27009

Dear Mr. Frost,
To ensure compliance with the North Carolina Coal Ash Management Act (CAMA), the Belews
Creek team is working to remove stormwater pipes that drain from the Belews Creek Pine Hall
Landfill to the ash basin. One of the pipes extends further than originally identified during a
camera inspection and upon reconnaissance work using a geotechnical probe, it has been
determined that the pipe extends into the area delineated by the Edge of Waste (EOW) boundary.
The proposed plan includes excavation the remaining portion of pipe, hauling any ash and/or
ash/soil comingle to Craig Road Landfill (permit no. 8504-INDUS) and backfilling with clean
soil to reestablish the soil cap to existing or better (i.e., thicker) conditions. The soil cap
thickness will be restored is a minimum of two (2) feet. The project will not go into the synthetically lined portion of the landfill but remain in the soil covered portion.

This letter serves as a request to disturb the soil cap at the Pine Hall landfill to remove the
stormwater pipe.
An Erosion and Sediment Control permit for this project has been approved by the Division of
Land Quality and is being ammended to cover this work.

Duke Energy is committed to excellent environmental stewardship and cooperation with the
Division regarding the operation, maintenance, safety, and integrity of all of its facilities. We look forward to continuing to work with you regarding environmental concerns.

If there are any questions regarding this request, please contact Melonie Martin at (336) 445-
0610.
