Dear Mr. Purifoy:
In accordance with your application for a discharge permit received on December 3,
2007, 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 October 15, 2007 (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 note that mine dewatering wastewater includes wet pit overflows caused solely
by direct rainfall and groundwater seepage 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 stormwater 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

Dear Mr. Purifoy:
Coleen N Sullins, Director
Division of Water Quality
The Division of Water Quality's Stormwater Permitting Unit received a National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) permit application for fort Barnwell Mine on December 3, 2007. 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 if your project is located near wetlands, -your NPDES permit will require
dewatering operations. without wetland impacts. 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.nc.us/su/Forms_Documents.htm. See Section C, Part 1 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 Washington Regional Office within 60
days of your receipt of an NPDES permit. We encourage you to contact Al I -Lodge at the Washington
Regional Office at [phone] to address any wetland concerns for your facility in order to ensure a
successful NPDES application review.
If you have any questions concerning the NPDES permit approval process, -please contact me at
telephone number [phone] ext. 360.

Jeff,
I'm still waiting on DLR to issue their mining permit for this site; and for
Chris Pullinger to do a stream call. I emailed him about it again today.
Did you get a copy of what they submitted for their 0&M plan that I sent you
back in December/January? Do you know if there are any wetlands in this
area that may be affected by the pumping? If so, we may want them to beef
up the 0&M plan.
Thanks.

Yes, you should get a copy of it in the package T sent you. The plan
however, does not include any monitoring wells. They don't have a DLR
mining permit yet, and their consultant said that one of the adjoining
property owners may try and fight the proposed mine. So, it may be a
while. I'll try and arrange with Chris to go take a look.
Thanks.

Robert, After looking at terrain navigator I think I would ask for a
stream call from Chris Pullinger and see if there are any wetlands on
site (needs a site visit), but I know they are going to need a
dewatering permit and a stormwater permit already, did you say they
already have an 0&M plan developed?

Jeff,
The more I look at this site, the more it looks like there is a
"blue line" that goes into the proposed mine pit and propose
sediment basin; though they have not provided any wetland
delineations. I've attached the USGS map for your information
also. Let me know what you think. I'm going to call the owner to
ask some questions about it.

INTRODUCTION
This plan contains the pump operation and monitoring procedures for proposed mine dewaiering
activities at the Carlina Stone, LLC i=ori Barnwell Mine in Craven County.
PURPOSE
In order to facilitate "dry" mining techniques, perrnission is being sought to dewater the proposed
excavation.
AQUIFER iNF ORMATION
According to the NCDENR, Division of Water Resources, Visual Hydrogeologic Framework, North
Carolina hydrogeological Database website, four hydrogeologic units are present within the
proposed maximum depth of the mine site; the Surficial aquifer, Yorktown confining unit, Yorktown
aquifer, and Beauforf confining unit. The fop of the.Yorktown confining unit and Yorktown aquifer
are estimated to be approximately 36-37 feet below the existing ground elevation The proposed
average and maximum mine depths are 45 and 50 feet, respectively. This information is based upon
the approximate center of the mine (lof 35.315N, long 77.369722W) and data recorded from NDENR
boreholes nearest the mine.
The groundwater surface elevation in the vicinity of the mine -has not been observed, but is
estimated to be opproximoteiy 5-8 feet below the existing ground.
PUMP INFORMATION
Manufacturer, pun-sp model and capacity information are not currently available: A maximum
pump capacity of 2,000 gallons per minute is proposed. This estimated maximum is expected to
exceed actual pumping requirements.
The pump(s) will be positioned within the active mine pit and used to provide a lowered water
surface elevation to a maximum depth of 50 feef below existing grade (corresponding to approx. 40
feet below the existing groundwater elevation).
PUMP OPERATIONS
Pumping will be employed as groundwater is encountered, and the pumps] will be utilized as
required to maintain a water surface elevation that is siigh iy lower than the excavation bottom to
enable the use of "dry" mining techniques.
Continuous use of the proposed pump(s) of maximum capacity will result in approximately 3,000,000
gallons of water removed from the active excavation pit per day.
It is recommended that pumping activities be suspended whenever periods of inactivity at the mine
will lasf longer than the time required to dewater file active pit.
PUMP DISCHARGE
The dewater pump(s) will discharge into the proposed perimeter swale and sedimenf basin. Water
will iecve the site through the existing drainage diich.
3 of 4

The'mine is iocaied within the Neuse River Basin, and the nearest surface water is an unnamed
tributary of the Neuse River that is located north of NC HWY 55. An existing drainage ditch that
provides a connection to the unnamed tributary is located on the proposed mine site,
MONITORING PLAN (PUMP)
Pump monitoring is required for the Central Coasial Plain Capacity Use Area Water Use Permif.
Monitoring shall include type and number of pumps operating, hours operated, volume withdrawn
(gallons per day), depth of pump intake (below existing ground), water surface elevation, and any
additional information requested by the permitting agency.
Monitoring shal# be performed daily unless otherwise directed/allowed by the permifting agency.
During pumping, withdrawal rates shall be assumed to equal manufacturer's it 6cated pump
capacity unless actual measurements indicate otherwise.
Withdrawal rates shall be reported according to the requirements dictated by'the applicable
permitting agency.
Pump withdrawal rate records shall be retained for a period of at least 5 years from the date.of
measurement, unless otherwise indicated by permitting agencies.
MONITORING PLAN (WELLS)
There are no known private wafer supply wells in or around the mine site. Adjoining property owners
have been requested to provide information to the contrary if they have private welts on their
property_
No monitoring wells are proposed for the mine dewatering activity.
MANDATORY PLAN REVISION
The approved pump operation plan shall be revised if, additional withdrawal capacity is required
or if it is determined that there are private water supply wells located within the vicinity of the mine
and dewatering activities are adversely affecting iheir production.
This play, shall also be revised as required by the permitting agency.

APPLICATION FOR A MINING PERMIT
C. PROTECTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES
I . Describe in detail the sequence of events for the development and operation of the mine and reference the
sequence to the mime nrap(,r). Attach additional sheets as needed.
' Flag and/or Stake permit boundary, mine pit boundary and processing area.
Install construction entrance, gate and mine entrance road.
Install structures and equipment (mine office, scales, maintenance buildings; processing equipment, etc.)
Install erosion control devices (sediment basin, rock check dam).
Construct screening berm, perimeter Swale, mine road, and safety berms.
Commence mining.
Describe specific erosion control measures to be installed prior to land disturbing activities and during
mining to prevent offsite sedimentation (include spec{fic plarzs.forsedinTent and erosion control for urine
excavation(s), waste piles, access/mine roads and process areas), and give a detailed sequence of
' installation and schedule for maintenance of the measures. Locate and label all sediment and erosion
control measures on the mine rnap(s) and provide t}pical cross-sectionsleorzstr-uction details of each
ineasure. Engineering designs and calculations shall be required when needed to justify the adequacy of
' any proposed measures.
A gravel construction entrance will be installed at the proposed mine entrance (unless a paved entrance road is
constructed) to prevent tracking of sediment onto adjacent roads.
Vegetated earthen berms and a perimeter swale will surround the rnine excavation and prevent offsite
sedimentation. The perimeter swale will convey stormwater runoff and mine dewatering pump discharges to
'the sediment basin.
A sediment basin will be constructed to capture sediment contained stormwater runoff and mine dewatering
pump discharges before it leaves the site. The basin will discharge into an existing drainage ditch.
A rock check dam will be installed within the existing drainage ditch.
3. a. Will the operation involve washing the material mined, recycling process water, or other waste water
handling? Yes ® No ❑. If yes, briefly describe all such processes including any chemicals to be used.
No chemicals will be used.
Mine water that is used to wash crushed rock and/or screenings will be discharged through the perimeter swale
into the sediment basin. The sediment basin discharges into an existing drainage ditch on the project site.
b. Will the operation involve discharging fresh or waste water from the mine or plant as a point discharge to
the waters of the State? Yes® No ❑. Ifyes, briefly describe the nature of the discharge and locate
all proposed discharge points (along with their method ofstabili_ation) on your mine rrrap(s).
Fresh water generated by dewatering the excavation site including the portion used for washing material will be
discharged through the perimeter swale and sediment basin into an existing drainage ditch.

APPLICATION FOR A MINING PERMIT
c. Will any part of the proposed mine excavation(s) extend below the water table? Yes® No[].
If yes, do you intend to dewater the excavation(s)? Yes® No ❑.
' if yes, what impact, if any, will mine dewatering have on neighboring wells? Estimated withdrawal rate
in gallons per day: 3,000,000 max. (aapprox 2.000 gpm) . Locate all existing wells on the mime map(s)
that lie within 500 feet of the proposed excavation area. Provide data to support any conclusions or
' statements made, including any monitoring well data, well construction data and current water withdrawal
rates. Indicate whether the proposed mine locale is served by a public water system or private wells.
The proposed mine locale is served by a public water system.
No private wells are known to be within 500 feet of the proposed mine.
The cover letter accompanying the adjoiner notices asked all adjoiners to advise if they had a private well so
that any wells could be surveyed and included in the mine maps if within 500 feet of the mine.
d. If you answered yes to any of the above questions; provide evidence that you have applied for or
obtained the appropriate water quality permit(s) (i.e., non -discharge, NPDES, Stormwater; etc.) from the
Division of Water Quality, Water Quality Section.
' See attached copy of DWQ NPDES application for coverage under general permit NCG020000.
In addition, the applicant is required to register water use with the Division of Water Resources if the
