To Whom It Mav Concern
This Dewatering Permit application is for a new sand mine to be constructed by F'rankie
Brown, owner of Brown's Land Developing, Inc., on property owned by M/M Joe Towe
White, Jr., at 962 S. Edenton Road Street, Hertford, NC, in Perquimans County. The requested
permit area is located on wide, flat, sandy farmland and will not present any problems
regarding runoff to adjacent areas. The purpose of the excavation will be to serve eventually
for recreational purposes by Mr. White and as a water source for agricultural use on his farm.
The excavation area will be located geographically 120 feet from the nearest public
highway or dwelling and is accessible only by a private access road. A constructed berm with
foliage and trees will provide adequate screening of the mining operation. Access to the
permit area is limited by private property, and private gated road access. There will be
minimum 25ft wide unexcavated buffers on all sides of the permit area.
Upon receipt of the approved permits from NCDENR, Mr. Brown plans to excavate the
mine to an average depth of 20 feet below seasonal high water level, and will include
construction of proper cut slopes on all sides of the excavated area, as required in the permit.
Reclamation of the mine area will include grading, leveling, and grassing of all affected areas.
The entire process should be completed within 5 years.
At this time Brown's Land Developing, Inc. is submitting a mining permit application to
the NCDENR Division of Energy, Mineral and I -and Resources, and a dewatering permit
application to the NCDENR Division of Water Quality. Copies of each application are
included in this packet.
All adjacent landowners have been contacted and made aware of the proposed mine
operation, and land entry agreements have been obtained. The mine area will be well -marked
with warning and keep out signs to prevent inadvertent public access.
Mr. Brown does hereby request approval for this Mining Permit, and asks that it be
expedited as soon as possible. Mr. Brown appreciates your consideration of this mine
application.
Sincerely,
Ken Elliott

The following activities are specifically excluded from coverage under this General Permit:
• Stormwater discharges associated with peat mining, coal mining, and metal mining;
• Stormwater discharges from mining operations which are intermixed on site with stormwater from
operations and/or concrete operations;
• Stormwater discharges associated with oil and gas extraction operations; and
• Stormwater discharges associated with tourist gem mines
• NCDOT borrow pits are covered under NCS000150
The following discharges are covered by NPDES -general permit NCG520000 instead of NCG020000:
• Point source discharges of stormwater and wastewater from in -stream sand mining operations (i.e., sand
dredging or dipping operations)
For new mining sites that require an authorization to construct (ATC) wastewater treatment facilities: This
NOI is also an APPLICATION FOR an ATC for new wastewater treatment facilities. ATC requests must be
submitted at least 90 days prior to construction'.
Far existing mining sites that require an Authorization to Operate (ATO) wastewater treatment facilities:
This NOI is also an APPLICATION FOR an ATO for wastewater treatment facilities in place.
Construction modification or installation of any new treatment components at an existima site requires
an ATC. (If the site is already covered by NCG020000, the ATC request may be submitted without an NOI).
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 NCGO20000 General Permit for details about which treatment facilities require an
ATC (summarized in Table 1 at the end of this form). 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 construct or 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

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE FLAN
SAND MINE DEWATERING AND WATER LEVEL CONTROL STRUCTURE
Operator: Frankie Brown, Brown's Land Developing, Inc., 182 Winfall Blvd., Hertford, NC 27944
Job Location: Joe Towe White Sand Mine, 962 S. Edenton Road St., Hertford, NC 27944
County: Perquimans County
Prepared by: Ken Elliott, consulting
Date: November 11, 2013
This plan defines responsibilities for operating, inspecting, and maintaining equipment and structures
used for constructing and dewatering the Joe Towe White Sand Mine safely, and that dewatering will
not degrade or negatively impact any wetlands or waters of the state.
Description and Operation of the Joe Towe White Sand Mine:
The Joe Towe White Sand Mine is a proposed 3.4-acre sand mine excavation operated by Frankie Brown,
Brown's Land Developing, Inc., in a 6.25 acre permit area located at the intersection of S. Edenton Road
Street and US 17 Bypass in the south Extraterritorial Jurisdiction area of Hertford, NC. The permit area is
on high sandy farmland owned by Joe Towe White, Jr. At this time Mr. Brown is submitting an
application with the NCDENR Division of Energy, mineral and Land Resources to construct the sand mine
and begin operation in December 2013. Mr. Brown has received an approved Conditional Use Permit
from the Town of Hertford Planning and Zoning Department for construction of this mine.
Sand Mine Dewatering:
The operator plans to construct a 0.26 acre sedimentation pond located 30 feet from the northwest
corner of the main excavation. The 10 foot deep pond will be excavated and constructed with 2-ft tall
by 10-ft wide sand berms surrounding it which will have full groundcover installed. Dewatering the
main pond will allow for full depth excavation and proper reclamation of the edges of the pond. It is the
intention of Mr. Brown to only dewater the excavation as needed, which will not entail full-time
dewatering.
The operator will install a 6-inch dewatering pump between the 2 ponds at the northwest corner of the
main excavation. Discharge from the dewatering pump will enter the sediment pond on its east side,
and there will be a constructed water height control device (see attached diagram) discharge point
located on the west side of the sediment pond. The discharge point will release clear water to a 25 foot
long constructed riprap-protected ditch, leading to existing farm irrigation ditches and then 0.75 miles
to Raccoon Creek and 1.4 miles to the Perquimans River (see attached map for outflow route and
discharge point locations).
Water will be pumped from the main pond to the sediment pond by a bin gasoline -powered transfer
pump operating at idle speed. Estimated maximum flow from the pump will be 10,000 gallons/hour. It
is the intention of Mr. Brown to drop the water level in the main pond approximately 20 feet below
natural ground level when needed.
The overflow from the sediment pond will be contrdlled by a water height control device constructed in
the west sediment pond berm, 1 foot below natural ground level. This control structure will allow water
to flow through the baffle into a 25ft long x 15" wide buried PVC pipe leading west to an existing 6ft
wide irrigation and drainage ditch running north and east 1100 feet to Raccoon Creek and then 1.4 miles
to Perquimans River. For erosion control, the overflow water will exit the water height control discharge
onto a 20ft long riprap-lined apron in the ditch.
Time and distance will allow all sedimentation to occur to acceptable levels before the overflow water
reaches outfall and then the waters of the State. Water will have to travel a minimum of 150 feet to
reach the overflow point which will give enough surface area to allow sufficient sedimentation to occur.
There will be a minimum 2ft tall berm around the perimeter of the sediment pond to prevent offsite
stormwater from entering the sediment area and damaging sedimentation rates.
Sedimentation and Erosion Control
Sediment pond overflow will drain into a constructed 25ft x 6ft wide feeder ditch that leads 1100 feet
through field drainage ditches to Raccoon Creek and then 1.4 miles to Perquimans River. Overflow into
the feeder ditch will be stabilized by riprap installed in the feeder ditch at the overflow (see diagram) to
prevent erosion of the ditch.
All erosion and sedimentation will remain inside of the permit area. During mining operations and
dewatering, the majority of the water leaving the excavation will remain inside of the permit area and
will only overflow occasionally. The sediment pond will be approximately 10 feet deep, and there is a
sand layer below the bottom of the area. The porosity of the soil under the sediment pond will allow
most of the water pumped into the pond from dewatering to seep back into the ground naturally. Any
excess water overflowing from the sediment pond will flow downstream through existing irrigation and
drainage ditches 1100 feet towards Raccoon Creek, and then 1.4 miles to the Perquimans River.
Maintaining the Sediment Pond Overflow Control Structure, Settlement Pond and Ditches
Inspections and maintenance are required to obtain the intended function of safely dewatering the sand
mine, and to maintain the life of any adjacent wetlands or waters of the State. Items to inspect and
maintain during the 5 year life of the mine dewatering permit are:
• Inspect the water control structures regularly, especially following heavy rains and runoff, or
during periods of operation of the structure.
• Remove accumulated debris from the concrete block overflow control structure.
• Inspect the structure for excessive settlement or seepage.
• Inspect all components of the structure, including appurtenances, and repair or replace any
damaged items as needed.
• Inspect embankments, berms and appurtenant structures, and repair as needed.
• Repair any damage to vegetated areas or berms with compacted earth fill, reshaping, sodding,
reseeding and mulching as needed.
• Inspect riprap outlet stabilization structures'in ditches regularly, replace dislodged rock as
necessary.
• Promptly repair all leaks in delivery facilities by replacing valves, fittings, gaskets, and worn or
damaged parts.
• Maintain all screens, filters, valves, timers and other electrical and mechanical equipment in
good operating condition, following manufacturer's recommendations
Monitoring the Process and Effects of Dewatering
Analytical and qualitative monitoring of mine dewatering wastewater will be in accordance with the
NCG020000 permit, as follows:
• All ponds in the Joe Towe White Sand Mine permit area will be inspected daily by the operator
to identify any abnormal conditions.
• All berms and erosion control and sedimentation control structures will be inspected following
significant (1/2-inch) rainfall events for damages, and all structures will be repaired immediately.
• Special inspections will be conducted immediately following severe storms, vandalism, and
other significant events.
• Dewatering process will be inspected daily during periods of dewatering the excavation.
• Overflow of wastewater process will be inspected daily during periods of dewatering the
excavation.
• Outflow of dewatering wastewater will be monitored quarterly at the overflow exit stabilization
structure for pH, settleable solids, turbidity, and total flow. Samples will be collected and tested
onsite for pH, and the remainder will be tested for the remaining parameters by a North
Carolina certified lab.
• Rain gauge data will be collected by monitoring rain gauge data monthly and after each rain
event.
Records
Data will be collected as follows:
• Data will be collected from samples taken from the wastewater point source discharge in
operation at the time.
• Point source discharge data: data from the site taken quarterly, date & time, general weather
conditions, pH of sample, status of process at point source, inlet or outlet, other DWQ required
data.
• Visual monitoring of adjacent farmland for potential dehydration during mining or dewatering
activities will take place weekly. Solutions to any degradation caused by any mining activity will
include alteration of dewatering process. DWQ will be consulted as needed; alterations to
process will be recorded.
0
• Elliott Consulting will maintain the fbllowing records in a permanent file at the Elliott Consulting
office at PO Box 112, 202 Elliott Road, Aydlett, NC 27916: a record of all significant actions
taken; as -built drawings; permits; analytical results from sampling; and related material. Copies
of all inspections, monitoring reports and lab analyses shall be provided to NCDWQ on a regular
basis and as requested.
BMP Conditions
• The permittee will utilize best management practices to ensure that dewatering the Joe Towe
White Sand Mine will not degrade or negatively impact any wetlands or waters of the State.
• The permittee shall obtain authorization from the Director of the NCDWQ prior to utilizing any
chemical flocculants at Joe Towe White Sand Mine.
