Brunswick County
Dear Mr. Ludlum:
In accordance with your application for a discharge permit received on December 6, 2006, we are
forwarding herewith the subject certificate of coverage to discharge under the subject state —NPDES
general permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-
215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the US Environmental Protection
Agency dated May 9, 1994 (or as subsequently amended).
Please take notice that this certificate of coverage is not transferable except after notice to the
Division of Water Quality. The Division of Water Quality may require modification or revocation and
reissuance of the certificate of coverage.
Please be aware that mine dewatering at your site has the potential to impact adjacent wetlands.
The specific requirements for thine dewatering at facilities near wetlands can be found in Section C, Part
I of your permit (Part III Page 5 of 9). You must have an approved Operation and Monitoring Plan
before mine dewatering discharges occur at your -facility. Discharging mine dewatering wastewater
without Plan approval will be subject to enforcement action. An Operation and Monitoring Plan for your
facility must be submitted to the Wilmington Regional Office within 60 days of your receipt of this
permit certificate of coverage. Please submit this package to the attention of Linda Willis.
Your Operation and Maintenance Plan must show that your facility is able to comply with State
regulations. It should include the following actions:
• Delineate wetland boundaries (including flagging).
• Place monitoring wells within the wetland boundary adjacent to the mine site and monitor
monthly. Make monitoring records available for review by the Division upon request.
• Discontinue mine dewatering immediately if treated wastewater flowing over the level spreader
causes channelization. Mine dewatering will not resume until the level spreader design is
evaluated and corrective measures are put in place to ensure the discharge will leave the site by
sheet flow. Vegetative cover must be re-established before dewatering resumes. Mine
Dewatering can only resume when authorized by the Division of Water Quality.
• Allow no point source discharge from the mine for any treated wastewater. Stormwater should be
directed into the pit and should be unable to leave the site as a point source discharge. -
• No unauthorized impacts to wetlands will occur. Mine dewatering will cease if immediate and
effective measures are unsuccessful at resolving the impacts. Dewatering can only resume when
authorized by the Division of Water Quality.

September 7, 2007
Please contact Ed Beck at the Wilmington Regional Office at (910) 796-7215 if you would like more
information about.the approval process.
This site will discharge to a receiving stream designated as High Quality Waters (HQW)
and a Primary Nursery Area (PNA). As a result, a more stringent TSS limit and wastewater discharge
volume applies. A supplement sheet is attached outlining the effluent limitations that apply to this
discharge and are based on the requirements in the North Carolina Administrative Code Section 15A
NCAC 213.0224.
Please note that mine dewatering wastewater includes wet pit overflows caused solely by direct
rainfall and groundwater seevage for this type of mining operation. Any discharge of this water (and any
stormwater commingled with it) is subject to the effluent limitations in this permit.
This general permit allows the discharge of stormwater and certain types of wastewater from your
facility. In your application, you specified that only mine dewatering water would be discharged from
this facility. If separate point -source discharges of stormwater occur (i.e., stormwater not combined with
mine dewatering water), you will be required to adhere to the conditions in this permit for ston-nwater
discharges.
This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required
by the Division of Water Quality or permits required by the Division of Land Resources, Coastal Area
Management Act or any other federal or local governmental permit that may be required.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Kelly Johnson at telephone
number (919) 733-5083 ext. 376.

Hi Linda -
I've got a draft NOV started for this site, but wanted to be clear on a couple things before sending it to
you. (I could send it as it is, but would like to get it to you as close to complete as possible- you're
busy enough, so I'd hope to minimize your work as best I can.)
First, if you've had any dealing with the USACE on the site, that would be information we need to
include in the NOV. I believe Kelly said she didn't think they'd contacted them or had any permits
from them, but want to be sure about that. Because we're dealing with wetlands, the Corps will need
to be involved anyway.
From what Kelly described, I think we can cite the following violations:
• Wetland Standards-- hydrology alteration via excavation and a series of ponds/pipes/ditch(es) +
fill in wetlands from sidecast spoil from pond excavation
• Stream Standards (Removal of Use)-- stream drained on the south property
• Failure to Secure a 401 WQC-- (unless you've -heard otherwise from the Corps about a 404?)
• Failure to Secure a Permit (Illicit Discharge)-- dug ditch that conveys freshwater drained from
wetlands directly to stream, impacting protected saltwater nursery area
If you could get back with me to be sure I've got the general grasp and have the pertinent details
correct, that would be great. You can reach me by phone at 919-733-5083 x 226, or here via email. I
also need to run the draft by Danny to be sure I'm not missing anything in regards to the enforcement
documentation- that may take a day or t,,Nro, as he's got a full schedule this week. I'm in training next
week, so I'll do my best to get you this draft by Fri at the latest so you can have a chance to take a
look, make any changes you feel are necessary, and ship it out.
Thanks, Linda- hope your day's going well so far!

Niki,
I was talking to Danny about a site in Brunswick County and he asked me to fill you in on it.
We have had an application for a sand mine from Keith Ludlum (Ludlum Sand Mine), Linda
Willis & I went down last week to check out the site. As it turns out, it had been a wetland at
one point. They have now dug a series of ponds and ditches to drain it. The site is small
(---4.5 acres), but the developer dug a ditch from his system of ponds to a natural stream. I
have some pictures and a map. Linda is plamning to send them an NOV. This is further
complicated because it drains to Primary Nursery Area waters. So, on top of the normal
concerns about draining the wetland and sediment accumulation in the stream, Fish and
Wildlife also has concerns about altering the salinity of the water being changed by
discharging fresh water at all. (I'll have to talk to Bradley about that). It is just a nasty site.
Do you have some time to get together and look at the pictures? Danny mentioned that you
have a consistency meeting tomorrow & that Linda may be there. I will be out for grad
school this afternoon, but I am in until 11:30 today. I also have a meeting tomorrow
afternoon & then the stream clean-up mid -day on Friday.
Thanks,
KJ

Hello Kelly,
Couple things regarding this mine. The query screen in BIMs says it was issued on
December 6, 2006 "statutory". How does that happen? Is this an automatic thing?
Their mining permit application calls it a new mine. However, this is an existing
mine developed in the last year (with problems) and without anyone's permit. The
site already has a lot of problems as indicated by Julie Dorr (DLQ) pursuant to an
inspection she conducted December 28, 06. The mine discharges through pipes to
surface waters that are HQW, SA, PNA and should not be able to do so under an NCG
permit because our permit does not provide strict enough limits to meet 10 mg/L.
The buffers between the mine and surface waters do not exist. They should not be
in operation as we speak, as far as I can tell. There are problems at this site
that need resolving before I would sign off on an O&M plan.' This mine was
developed without permits (curs or DLQ's mining permit).
I am not inclined to approve anything they propose right now until the existing
issues out there get resolved. Their O & M plan, submitted by Norris Kuske &
Tunstall do not even mention the discharge pipes on site and the fact that they've
already blown their buffers. Julie has pictures that showed filling in what she
believes to be wetlands from their discharge.
How about some input on where to go on this one. . . and help me understand how
they got the NCG without due process?

Dear Ms. Johnson:
J. Phillip Norris, P.E.
John A. Kuske, 111, P.E.
John S. Tunstall, P.E.
J.A. Kuske, P.E. of Counsel
We are responding to your letter dated December 13, 2006 regarding the Operation and
Monitoring Plan as follows:
1. Any impact to the surrounding wetlands will be monitored through two (2)
monitoring wells placed along the boundary of the mine and wetlands (see
plans).
2. Two (2) stilling basins with level spreaders will mitigate the mine dewatering
wastewater. These basins are located along the edge of the wetland boundary.
The extracted water will sheet flow through the vegetated buffer into the
wetlands. This water will continually recharge the wetland area.
3. All swale and buffers will be required to maintain a vegetated cover over their
entirety.
4. The vegetated buffer strip below the level spreader is required to be inspected
monthly for evidence of concentrated flow. If concentrated flow is found to exist it
will be corrected and new vegetation established.
5. Any accumulated sediment shall be removed from the stilling basins annually or
when the minimum storage depth reaches three feet.
6. All discharge waters are required to be monitored and tested in accordance with
Part III page 6 of 9 of the NCG020000 General Permit (see attachment).

North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources
Alan W. Klimek, P.E. Director
Division of Water Quality
C.EI'VED
LXDEC 1 4 2006
Subject: General Permit No. NCG0200
Ludlum Sand Mine, NCG 020697
Brunswick County
The Division of Water Quality's Stormwater Permitting Unit received a National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) permit application for Ludlum Sand Mine on December 6, 2006. The application
included a copy of an associated application for a mining permit submitted to the Division ,of Land Resources
(DLR). Please be aware that the issuance of an NPDES permit is contingent upon the issuance of an associated
mining permit from DLR. Our office will process your stormwater permit application once a DLR mining
permit has been issued for your project.
Please also be aware that your NPDES permit will require dewatering operations without impacts to
wetlands. The specific requirements for mine dewatering at facilities near wetlands can be found in the text of
the general NPDES mining permit number NCG 020000 available on our website,
http://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/su/Forms_Documents.htm. See Section C, Part I of the permit on the page labeled,
"Part III Page 5 of 9". An approved Operation and Monitoring Plan is required for NPDES-permitted mining
facilities. Discharging mine dewatering wastewater without Plan approval will be subject to enforcement action.
A Plan for your facility must be submitted to the Wilmington Regional Office within 60 days of your receipt of
an NPDES permit. We encourage you to contact Ed Beek at the Wilmington Regional Office at (910) 796-
7215 to address any wetland concerns for your facility in order to ensure.a successful NPDES application
review.

Permit Assigned to
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System application for coverage under General Permit
NCG020000:
STORMWATER DISCHARGES associated with activities classified as:
SIC (Standard Industrial Classification) Code - 14XX Mineral Mining Industry (except as specified below)
The following activities are also included:
Active or inactive mining operations (including borrow pits) that discharge stormwater contaminated with or
that has come in contact with, any overburden, raw material, intermediate products, finished products,
byproducts or waste products located on the site of such operations
Stormwater from vehicle maintenance activities at mining operations; overflow from facilities that recycle
process wastewater; and/or mine dewatering
The following activities are specifically excluded from coverage under this General Permit:
Peat mining, coal mining, and metal mining
Stormwater discharges from mining operations which are intermixed on site with stormwater from asphalt
operations, and oil and gas extraction operations
For new mining sites that require an authorization to construct (ATC) wastewater treatment facilities: This
NOI is also an APPLICATION FOR authorization to construct new wastewater treatment facilities. ATC
requests must be submitted at least 90 days prior to construction'..
For existin_g mining sites that require an Authorization to Operate (ATO) wastewater treatment facilities:
This NOI is also an APPLICATION FOR authorization to continue to operate wastewater treatment facilities
in place. Construction, modification, or installation of any new treatment components at an existing site
requires an ATC.
Some wastewater treatment facilities used to treat or recycle process wastewater (even if commingled
with stormwater) at mining sites will require an ATC prior to construction per 15A NCAC 2H .0138.
Please see the NCG020000 General Permit for details about which treatment facilities require an
ATC. For example, an ATC is required for treatment of mine dewatering discharge from clay pits and
non -closed -loop wastewater recycle systems. The authorization to constructor continue to operate will
be issued at the same time as the Certificate of Coverage (COC) for the NCG02 permit. Design of
treatment facilities must comply with requirements of 15A NCAC 2H .0138 & .0139.
Construction of wastewater treatment facilities subject to the ATC requirement in the NCG02 permit at
new or existing mining sites requires submission of three (3) sets of plans and specifications signed and
sealed by a Professional Engineer (P.E.) or qualified staff2 along with this application. A copy of the
design calculations should be included. Please see questions 14 & 15!
