greatest practical degree of protection and restoration.
Page 2
In accordance with the application for this mining permit, which is hereby approved by the
Department of Environment and Natural Resources, hereinafter referred to as the Department,
and in conformity with the approved Reclamation Plan attached to and incorporated as part of
this permit, provisions must be made for the protection of the surrounding environment and for
reclamation of the land and water affected by the permitted mining operation. This permit is
expressly conditioned upon compliance with all the requirements of the approved Reclamation
Plan. However, completed performance of the approved Reclamation Plan is a separable
obligation, secured by the bond or other security on file with the Department, and may survive
the expiration, revocation or suspension of this permit.
This permit is not transferable by the permittee with the following exception: If another
operator succeeds to the interest of the permittee in the permitted mining operation, by virtue
of a sale, lease, assignment or otherwise, the Department may release the permittee from the
duties imposed upon him by the conditions of his permit and by the Mining Act with reference
to the permitted operation, and transfer the permit to the successor operator, provided that
both operators have complied with the requirements of the Mining Act and that the successor
operator agrees to assume the duties of the permittee with reference to reclamation of the
affected land and posts a suitable bond or other security.
In the event that the Department determines that the permittee or permittee's successor is not
complying with the Reclamation Plan or other terms and conditions of this permit, or is failing
to achieve the purposes and requirements of the Mining Act, the Department may give the
operator written notice of its intent to modify, revoke or suspend the permit, or its intent to
modify the Reclamation Plan as incorporated in the permit. The operator shall have right to a
hearing at a designated time and place on any proposed modification, revocation or
suspension by the Department. Alternatively and in addition to the above, the Department
may institute other enfo.rcement procedures authorized by law.
Wherever used or referred to in this permit, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise,
terms shall have the same meaning as supplied by the Mining Act, N.C.G.S. 74-49.
This permit has been modified to allow dewatering activities at the site as
indicated on the mine map dated February 7, 2001, with the stipulation that any necessary
approvals shall be obtained from the Division of Water Quality and the Division of Water
Resources prior to conducting said activities.
This permit shall be effective from the date of its issuance until February 8, 2009.

shall be in accordance with the requirements and regulations promulgated and
enforced by the N. C. Environmental Management Commission.
4. A. Adequate mechanical barriers including but not limited to diversions, earthen
dikes, silt check dams, silt retarding structures, rip rap pits, or ditches shall be

or natural watercourse in proximity to the affected land.
B. All drainage from the affected area around the mine excavation shall be diverted
internal to said excavation or into the sediment basin.
C. Mining activities, including dewatering activities, shall be conducted as indicated

6. The angle for graded slopes and fills shall be no greater than the angle which can be
retained by vegetative cover or other adequate erosion control measure, structure, or
device. In any event, exposed slopes or any excavated channels, the erosion of which
may cause off -site damage because of siltation, shall be planted or otherwise provided
with ground cover, devices or structures sufficient to restrain such erosion.
7. The affected land shall be graded so as to prevent collection of pools of water that are,
or likely to become, noxious or foul. Necessary structures such as drainage ditches or
conduits shall be constructed or installed when required to prevent such conditions.
8. Existing vegetation or vegetated earthen berms shall be maintained between the mine
and public thoroughfares whenever practical to screen the operation from the public.
