Also, civil penalties of'up to $500.00 per day for each day of the violation may be assessed under G.S. 74-64. Additionally, under G.S. 74-64, the penalty for operating a mine without a permit is a civil penalty of up to $5,000.00 per day for each day of the violation. Therefore, no further minina may occur at the above mentioned site until you have aaplied for and obtained a valid _mining permit from this Department.
