Dear Mr. Garvey:
On December 19, 2013, 1, Ashley Rodgers, of the Raleigh Regional Office, along with Joe Dupree and
Chris Pullinger, also of the Raleigh Regional Office, carried out a stormwater compliance evaluation
inspection (CEI) for the above permit. Your availability was appreciated as it facilitated the inspection.
A synopsis of the inspection is discussed below:
1. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) was available during the inspection. The
SPPP was reviewed and updated annually during this permit cycle. All components of the plan
were evaluated during the CEI, and the plan was found to be complete and being put into active
use.
2. The Stormwater Discharge Outfalls (SDO) were inspected during the inspection. The SDO
appear to be adequately capturing all of the stormwater coming from the production area.
3. Qualitative monitoring results were reviewed during the CFI. Qualitative monitoring; results
were available and up to date, and within benchmarks.
4. It appears that the current permit will expire on December 31, 2014, An application for renewal
of your permit is required to be received a minimum of six months prior to its expiration.

request will not he processed without a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing
and a stipulation that there are no factual or legal issues in dispute.
You must execute and return to this office the attached "Waiver of Right to an Administrative
Hearing and Stipulation of Facts" and the attached "Justification for Remission Request" which

FINDINGS AND DECISIONS
AND ASSESSMENT OF CIVIL
PENALTIES
Acting pursuant to North Carolina General Statues (hereby known as G.S.) 143-215.6A, 1, Tom
Reeder, of the Division of Water Quality (hereby known as DWQ), make the following:
FINDINGS OF FACT:
A. Hanson Aggregates Southeast, Inc. is a company organized and existing under the
laws of the State of North Carolina.
B. Hanson Aggregates Southeast, Inc. operates a rock quarry known as Hanson
Aggregates - Crabtree Quarry located near the junction of Crabtree Creek and
Duralcigh Road in Raleigh, Wake County, North Carolina.
C. Hanson Aggregates Southeast, Inc. was issued a NPDES General Stormwater Permit
No. NCG020000 (Certificate of Coverage #NCG020052) for the Hanson Aggregates
- Crabtree Quarry on February 7, 2005. The current Certificate of Coverage will
expire on December 31, 2009.
D. On July 2, 2007 and July 5, 2007, DWQ staff conducted inspections at Hanson
Aggregates - Crabtree Quarry. The inspections revealed that on June 29, 2007, a
holding basin berm failed discharging untreated mine wastewater and residuals onto
the stream bank and into Crabtree Creek,
E. The DWQ site inspections and respective file review indicated that Hanson
Aggregates Southeast, Inc. did not have an adequate Stormwater Best Management
Practices Plan to prevent the failure of the basin berm and subsequent discharge of
untreated mine wastewater and residuals into Crabtree Creek.
F. Part III Section A. 1. of General Permit No. NCG020000 contains the following: The
permittce shall implement stormwater BMPs to ensure that contaminants do not enter
surface waters via stormwater that comes in contact with any unstabilized
overburden, raw materials, intermediate products, finished products, by products or

I lansun Aggregates Soutlicast, Inc.
Case No. PC-2008-0004
Page 2 of 7
waste product located on the site covered by this permit. A BMP Plan shall be
developed in accordance with the requirements of this section. The BMP Plan
requirement, or portions of the plan requirement, may be rnet by utilizing appropriate
requirements in other documented plans specific to the permitted facility.
G. The DWQ site inspections and respective file review indicated that Hanson
Aggregates Southeast, Inc. did not conduct the BMP Inspection and Maintenance
requirements of the NCG020000 permit. Insufficient Operation and Maintenance
was indicated from the failure of the transfer pump, failure to maintain the sediment
removal from the basin, and failure of the basin berm that resulted in the discharge of
untreated mine wastewater and residuals onto the stream bank and into Crabtree
Creek,
H. Part III Section A. 3. of General Permit No. NCG020000 contains the following:
BMP Controls Inspection and Maintenance. All stormwater BMPs shall be inspected
by or under the direction of the permittee at least once every seven calendar days and
within 24 hours after any storm event that results in a discharge. The BMPs
implemented shall be operated and maintained so that they are cleaned out when the
sediment storage capacity has been reduced by 50%. If any visible sedimentation is
leaving the property, corrective action shall be taken to reduce the discharge of
sediments. Visible sedimentation found offsite shall be recorded with a brief
explanation as to the mcasures taken to prevent future releases as well as any
measures taken to remove the sediment that left the site. All other stormwater
specific controls (e.g. oil/water separators) shall be inspected and qualitatively
monitored (as per Part II.B.3) on a semiannual schedule, once in the fall (September
—November) and once during the spring (April -June). A log of sampling data and of
activities taken to implement BMPs associated with the vehicle maintenance
activities shall be maintained and incorporated into the BMP Plan and kept onsite for
the duration of the permit term and made available to the Director upon request.
The DWQ site inspections and respective file review indicated that there were no
qualitative or analytical monitoring performed or records kept by Hanson Aggregates
Southeast, Inc., and no records were available for review as required by the
NCG020000 permit.

M. The DWQ site visits revealed that untreated mine -site wastewater and residuals were
released and deposited into approximately 75 linear feet of the stream and in the
riparian buffer.
N. Title 15A North Carolina Administrative Code (hereby known as NCAC) 213,0211
(3)f requires that "Oils; deleterious substances; colored or other wastes: only such
amounts as shall not render the waters injurious to public health, secondary recreation
or to aquatic life and wildlife or adversely affect the palatability of fish, aesthetic
quality or impair the waters for any designated uses;"
O. Title 15A NCAC 213.0233 (4) of the Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rules requires that

P. Impacts occurred to Crabtree Creek, a Class C, Nutrient Sensitive Water within the
Neuse River Basin.

In response to your e-mail correspondence dated January 7, 2008, please find enclosed three
copies of the revised plans for the containment pond for the Crabtree Quarry. The following
comments and revisions to the plan were prepared by Mr. Allen King, a Lehigh Hanson employee
and professional engineer licensed in the State of North Carolina.
Comments and revisions to the plans are as follows:
A. The slope as shown on the Section A A on sheet #1 (--245 top and 225 toe) is the
existing slope from the plant down to Crabtree Creek. The portion of the slope from
elevation 225 to 240 has been in place since the construction of the plant approximately
in the late 1950's. This area has been constructed of structural fill, rock and rip -rap. Over
the course of the years this slope has established with volunteer vegetation. To modify
this slope would require permitting from the Corp of Engineers and Division of Water
Quality. The back slope of the basin is under the plant area and, therefore, not possible
to change.
The interior slope of the basin was designed utilizing the grade elevations as surveyed.
As a rule of thumb, for embankment stability, the sum of the horizontal component of the
internal & external slopes should equal 5 or greater (meaning if the interior slope is 2:1
the exterior slope should be 3:1 or greater). Using the existing exterior slope estimated by
Mr. Pickle (1.5:1) the interior slope should be constructed at 3.5:1 slope. The details and
plans have been modified to reflect the change in the slopes. As shown, this change
moves the center line of the basin approximately 4 feet towards the plant. This would
make an insignificant change in the volume of the basin.
B. The detail showing the EPDM membrane has been revised to show a reinforced pond
liner membrane 45 mil. thick.
C. The pump float settings have been revised as follows:
Pump On & Pump Off elevation equals 241.0, the emergency Pump Off elevation will be
been set at 243.5.
The float settings are such that the "pump off' elevation allows for the basin to be
de watered without the sump being completely drained. The pump_on" elevation has
been set for 241.0. 1
a
JUN 2 7 2008
DENIM nn�t un „�u�li',I t;iF1CI
.Jl�

Given the small basin size and the estimated Q25 of 11.22 CFS, with these float settings
the pump (capacity is 3500 GPM) will cycle as; basin fill time for 35 minutes and pump
run time for 80 minutes.
The upper `pump off' elevation of 243.5 has been set at the same elevation as the crest
of the emergency spillway. This has been set such that in the event that water surface
elevation of Crabtree Creek rises to the point such that it begins to back flow into the
basin the pumps will be shut off so as to not allow for creek water to be pumped into the
pit. As the creek water level drops, power to the pumps can be restored and pumps
automatically restarted.
D. The upslope limit of the basin terminates at the foundation of the plant structure. Since
the installation of the basin, during large storm water events, water does back up and
spread under the plant. Although the water does back up under the plant the 3500 GPM
capacity pumps keeps this to a minimum.
E. Acknowledged and revised.
We trust that this information is sufficient for your review and approval. Should you have
additional questions feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Robert Snyder

Permit Conditions Violations
Wake County
Attached is a recommendation for civil penalty assessments against Hanson Aggregates Southeast, Inc
for several violations of the conditions of the general permit. On Saturday, June 30, 2007, Emergency
Management received a call concerning chalky material along Crabtree Creek in the vicinity of the
Crabtree Quarry. 1 inspected the site on July 2, 2007 in conjunction with the Land Quality Section and
found that a discharge had occurred from a process and storm treatment basin. There were also
problems in their solids handling across the creek. 1 also found that the basin was not properly designed
to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
Ken Pickle and 1 went back to the Quarry on July 5, 2007 and found several deficiencies in their
stormwater program. A notice of violation was sent dated July 6, 2007. The company has since
submitted plans to rebuild the settling basin with pumps which have telemetry.
The Raleigh Regional Office recommends assessment of civil penalties for the violations noted in the
attached F&D. If you have questions, please advise.

FINDINGS AND DECISIONS
AND ASSESSMENT OF CIVIL
PENALTIES
Acting pursuant to delegation provided by the Secretary of the Department of Environment and
Natural Resources, I, Tom Reeder of the Division of Water Quality (hereby known as DWQ), make
the following:
FINDINGS OF FACT:
A. Hanson Aggregates Southeast, Inc is a company organized and existing under the laws
of the State of North Carolina.
B. Hanson Aggregates Southeast, Inc owns and operates a rock quarry known as Hanson
Aggregates Southeast Crabtree Quarry located adjacent to the junction of Crabtree
Creek and Duraleigh Road in Raleigh, North Carolina in Wake County.
C. Hanson Aggregates Southeast, Inc was issued a NPDES General Stormwater Permit
No. NCG020000 (Certificate of Coverage #NCG020052) for the Hanson Aggregates
Southeast Crabtree Quarry on January 15, 2005. The current Certificate of Coverage
will expire on December 31, 2009.
D. On July 2, 2007 and July 5, 2007, DWQ staff conducted inspections at Hanson
Aggregates Southeast Crabtree Quarry. The inspection results revealed that on June
29, 2007 a holding pond failed, discharging untreated wastewater and solids into
Crabtree Creek. It was explained to DWQ staff -that a transfer pump in the pond was
turned off and it had no float control. The treatment unit berm failed during an
approximate 1 inch rain fall event. The berm was temporarily repaired and no report of
a discharge, overflow or treatment unit failure was submitted to DWQ.
E. The July 2, 2007 and July 5, 2007, DWQ inspections respective file review revealed
the absence of analytical and qualitative monitoring, the absence of a Stormwater Best
Management Practices Plan, Operation and Maintenance failures by failing of the

pump, failing of basin, failing to removal sediment from the basin, the side -caste pile
of residual materials (waste mine site residuals) on the stream bank (these solids were
readily traced down the creek bank to waters) and the failure to report to DWQ within
twenty-four hours of any noncompliance which may endanger health or the
environment.
F. During the site inspections, DWQ observed that Hanson Aggregates Southeast, Inc. did
not have a Stormwater Best Management Practices Plan that ensured that contaminates
did not enter surface waters via stormwater that comes in contact with byproducts or
waste products located on the site covered by the permit.
G. General Permit No. NCG020000 contains the following limitation:
Part III Section A. Stormwater Best Management Practices Plan:1.
The permittee shall implement stormwater BMPs to ensure that contaminants do not
enter surface waters via stormwater that comes in contact with any unstabilized
overburden, raw materials, intermediate products, finished products, by products or
waste product located on the site covered by this permit. The BMP Plan requirement,
or portions of the plan requirement, may be met by utilizing appropriate requirements
in other documented plans specific to the permitted facility.
H. During the site visit, DWQ confirmed that Hanson Aggregates Southeast, Inc did not
remove sediment, when storage capacity has been reduced by 50% and did not record
with a brief explanation as to the measures taken to prevent future releases
sedimentation as well as any measures taken to remove the sediment that left the site.
I. Part III_ Section A. Stormwater Best Management Practices Plan:3.
BMP Controls Inspection and Maintenance. All stormwater BMPs shall be inspected
by or under the direction of the permittee at least once every seven calendar days and
within 24 hours after any storm event that results in a discharge. The BMPs
implemented shall be operated and maintained so that they are cleaned out when the
sediment storage capacity has been reduced by 50%. If any visible sedimentation is
leaving the property, corrective action shall be taken to reduce the discharge of
sediments. Visible sedimentation found offsite shall be recorded with a brief
explanation as to the measures taken to prevent future releases as well as any measures
taken to remove the sediment that left the site. All other stormwater specific controls
(e.g. oil/water separators) shall be inspected and qualitatively monitored (as per Part
TI.B.3) on a semiannual schedule, once in the fall (September — November) and once
during the spring (April -June). A log of sampling data and of activities taken to
implement BMPs associated with the vehicle maintenance activities shall be

Re: Notice of Violation, NOV-2007-PC-0472, Hanson Crabtree Quarry, Basin
Discharge Design
Dear Ms. Garrett:
We have evaluated the feasibility of various options with regard to the removal of
water from the basin adjacent to the processing plant at Crabtree Quarry. Based
on our evaluation, we intend to install an electric pump with self starting
generator back up (emergency) power supply.
Both the pump and generator will be located adjacent to the basin. The pump
and generator will operate on a float or laser water level sensing system so that it
will operate automatically after hours. The system will have off hours monitoring
capability. The pump will remove water from the basin and discharge it to the
quarry pit during certain storm events. Water from the basin will still be
discharged to the settling ponds on the south side of Crabtree Creek under
normal operating conditions.
We have submitted a capital request to our corporate office for the funds to
purchase and install the equipment. The rental pump will remain in place until
the purchased equipment is in place and operational.
Please contact me should you require additional information.

Re: Notice of Violation, NOV-2007-PC--0472, Hanson Crabtree Quarry
Dear Ms. Garrett:
Pursuant to your letter dated July 6, 2007 we are submitting the attached
response for your review. The response outlines temporary measures installed
after June 30, 2007 and future permanent measures to ensure the integrity of the
erosion control structures. The response also includes training to be conducted
and maintenance schedules for activities related to erosion monitoring and
control.
We are still evaluating options for permanent measures to remove water from the
basin adjacent to the plant and options for basin design. We expect to have a
determination soon and we will keep you informed as to the outcome. A plan will
be submitted to remove debris from the creek; however, further discussions with
the Division of Water Quality is requested due to site personnel safety
considerations.
The, accompanying schedule is predicated on intemai company approvals.
Please contact me should you require additional information.

L Violation of Part 11, Section B2 of NPDES Permit NCGO20000:
The above mentioned discharge to Crabtree Creek is violation of Part II Section
B.2. of the permit.
Immediate Temporary Measures:
During the afternoon of June 27, 2007 site personnel were pumping water from a basin
adjacent to the plant to a pond on the south side of Crabtree Creek. This is the typical
work practice since the basin is not intended to discharge. In response to a late afternoon
stornn event site personnel ati Crabtree Quarry reinforced the berm wall on the west side
of the basin prior to the close of work. The berm was intact at the time of departure,
approximately 5:00 PM- Upon arrival at Crabtree Quarry at 6_00 ATM on Saturday June
28, 2007 site personnel discovered that the berm bad breached. Repairs to the berm were
begun and completed by 8:30 AM, June 28, 2007. In response to the breach site
personnel reinforced the west (along the existing approved creek crossing road) and south
(bordering Crabtree Creek) walls of the berm with washed stone. An existing pump that
was used to remove water from the basin and deliver it to the settling pond on the south
side of the creek was replaced with larger (rental) pump. The basin was then monitored
during subsequent storm events to ensure sufficient pump capacity for storm water
removal. As a result of these inspections the rental pump was replaced with a larger
rental pump which was found to be adequate to remove accumulated storm runoff. It
includes a float system which automatically turns the self priming pump on and off as the
water level in the basin increases and decreases. The pump discharge was changed so
that storm water is directed to the quarry pat. Basin monitoring during storm events also
discovered leaching from the stone lining the basin. To alleviate this problem a
geotextile liner was installed on the south and west sides of the basin.
Permanent Measures:
1. Reducing the amount of runoff to the basin will be the primary objective of the
permanent measures. Therefore, a road diversion has been constructed in such a
way that as much of the water entering the site and flowing down the haul road is
diverted to a holding area recently constructed in the quarry pit. We will also
keep as much runoff as possible from Duraleigh Road from entering the site.
Another major source of runoff is from haul road leading to the primary. We will
permanently divert as much of this runoff to the quarry it as possible-
2- Basin Discharge Options: Option #1 A concrete box culvert or pipe will be buried
in a channel connecting the northwest corner of the basin (closest to the platform

07/09/2007 09:39 919-380-2756 HANSON TECH SVC PAGE 04

along the motor control building) and the quarry pit wall adjacent to the water
truck fill station. The culvert or pipe will dip toward the quarry pit to ensure the
gravity flow of storm water into the pit. The inlet to the culvert or pipe will
include a drop inlet pipe with trash guard or similar device. The gravity drainage
design into the quarry pit is subject to the ability to excavate a channel along the
desired path. This option is complicated by the large amount of buried electrical
conduit and water lines in the plant area. Qption #2 If the gravity feed design
proves infeasible, a diesel (or electric) pump and .float system, similar to the
temporary system currently employed will be installed. The pump system will
have emergency generator power supply backup in the event of a power failure.
It will also include a telephone contact system to alert company personnel in the
event of a system failure. We are evaluating the necessary pump capacity at this
time.
3. We are currently evaluating the permanent configuration of the basin since the
temporary measures used to reinforce the basin have been effective is preventing
discharges.
2. Violation of Part IV, Section ES of NPDES Permit NCG020000
,Failure to report the above -mentioned discharge within 24 hours of the
discharge is a violation of Part IV, Section E. 6. of the permit.
The discharge occurred between Friday evening and early Saturday morning. It was not
discovered until personnel entered the site early Saturday morning. Their immediate
response was to repair the basin which was completed before 8.30 AM Saturday.
Personnel at the site were unaware of the need to report a discharge from the basin.
However, site personnel have been made aware of the need to report rnann,ctions of
erosion control structures. Additional training of site personnel is planned for Friday
August 3.
3. Violation of the Neuse Buffer Rules:
The large deposit of wastewater solids observed along the creek bank is violation of
Title 15A NCAC 02B .0223 (4) which states that Zones 1 and 2 of the riparian buffer
remain in vegetation that is undisturbed except far those uses provided for in Item (8)
of this Rule.

07/09/2007 09:39 919-380-2756 HANSON TECH SVC PAGE 05
Hanson Aggregates Crabtree Quarry
Page 3 of 6
The Crabtree Quarry was opened in the 1950's. Much of the infrastructure located along
the creek bank in the area of the basin and elsewhere was installed at the time the plant
was constructed. The installation of plant infrastructure along the creek bank was in
response to the treed for water for plant processes or for the need to move materials from
one side of the creek to the other. This area has thus sustained continual use for
maintenance and other quarry related'activities over the last 40 or more years. The area
around the basin has remained an active part of the pit and was considered part of the
state approved road crossing. The haul road creek crossing was in response to the need to
move heavy equipment to the south side of the creek to conduct mine related activities.
The haul road creek crossing was approved in 1992.
The road traversed both the creek and buffer on two sides. It is difficult to estimate the
original creek bank because activities related to the mine have influenced a small section
of creek bank from the inception of the quarry opening. The original creek line is
unknown; however, we propose to remove a band of sediment approximately 10" wide
by 30' long along the edge of the creek subject to receipt of necessary state approvals.
The plant infrastructure including primarily piping and pump is now obsolete however its
connection with the plant needs to be evaluated to determine the feasibility of its
removal. The approved creek crossing will remain to allow for access to the NPDES
discharge point. A pipe which delivers make up water from the pit to the settling ponds
is located in this area. It continues to serve as the NPDES discharge point.
4. Violation of Part IV. Section C I — Proper Operation and Maintenance of
NPDES Permit NCG020000.
The material piled -up about 15-20 feet high beside the ponds and the sediment basin
was. full of solids were traced down the creek bank to the creek
The settling ponds are located on the south side of the creep_ The ponds receive process
water from the plant in a pump and gravity feed system. Water from the plant is gravity
fed through a pipe across the creek to a small pond from which it is pumped to the upper
settling pond. Since the upper pond receives the most heavily silt Iaden water from the
plant it is the first stage in the process of settling silt from, the process water. The pile to
which Item #4 refers is the material dipped from the upper settling pond in response to
the settling of the fines. The silt removed from the settling pond cannot be loaded
directly into trucks for transport to the final disposal area. It must be dried so that it can

Page 4of6
be handled. The pond fines have not been removed from the area adjacent to the upper
settling pond for an extended period of time.
Immediate Temporary Measures:
In response to these maintenance issues, a silt fence extending approximately 65' was
installed along the top of the Crabtree Creek bank in the area of the upper settling pond
fines pile. A channel was then cut between the large dried pond fine pile and the silt
fence from near the end of upper settling pond access road to the sediment basin. The
sediment basin was excavated to remove accumulated sediment and the channel restored
that connects the sediment basin discharge to the lower settling pond_ Rock check dams
were installed along the channel. Silt fence was also installed in other areas to control
runoff.
Rock check dams were installed along the access road to the upper settling pond.
Permanent Measures:
In response to these maintenance issues and in response to fines leaching over the bank
the following permanent measures are to be installed:
1. The area designated for final disposal of the pond fines will be inspected for
suitability to ensure it is contained and stable for accepting the dried pond fines.
Once established, the existing pond fines pile will be moved to the disposal area,
graded and seeded within one week of completion. A permanent berm will be
created using remaining, fines currently in place and the outside edge of the
existing fines pile. The area will be graded into a uniform berm extending from
the end of the topographic high at the end of the upper settling pond access road
to the discharge end of the sediment basin and the affected surface seeded. A
travel lane next to the pond and a dedicated depositional work zone will remain to
allow for pond cleaning and fines drying. The berm will be undisturbed by future
pond cleaning. The berm will be approximately 7' high and 14' wide at the base.
The berm will be seeded within one week of completion.
2. The detention basin and channel discharge to the lower settling pond wit] be
sloped where needed and the channel seeded.
3. A permanent ditch will be created along the edge of the access road from
Duraleigh Road to the upper settling pond. The access road will be sloped to
direct storm water runoff toward the ditch. The ditch will be constructed using
best management practices from the North Carolina Storm Water Manual. It will
direct storm water runoff around the settling pond area to Crabtree Creek.
The following maintenance schedule will be adhered to annually:

Immediate Temporary Measures:
The Crabtree Quarry has been evaluated for storm and process water discharges annually
or more frequently. Storm water is directed back to the pit, to the settling ponds or to the
basins. Nevertheless, the affected area of the site was evaluated by Hanson personnel for
potential storm water discharge points on July 14, 2007 and subsequently during recent
storm events. Five potential storm water discharge locations exist on site and are
numbered SDOI — SM. Not all were observed during a recent storm events but if not
inspected during a storm event they were inspected for evidence of discharges
immediately afterward. SDO1, SD02, SDO3, SDO4 and SDO5 have defined discharge
point source conveyances (pipes or channels); however, none were found to discharge or
suspected to have discharged from the site during these events. The fines material
located along the south side Crabtree Creek bank leached from a small pile of pond fines
located along the top of the bank. This area has since been temporariIy protected by a silt
fence and will permanently be protected by a vegetated berm.
Each SDO will continue to be monitored during storm events and if found to discharge
qualitative and quantitative monitoring will be performed. The plant process water
discharge, NPDES 001 has been quarterly sampled and tested as required.
Permanent Measures:
Each SDO discharge location has been identified and observed by the individuals who
will be responsible for managing or conducting the storm and process water monitoring
and sampling. Each of these individuals has surveyed the affected land at the site for
other potential storm water discharge locations and thus is familiar with all areas of
known concentrated storm water runoff. Each will be responsible for performing
qualitative and quantitative storm water monitoring and sampling. Site personnel will
also be utilized to perform SDO monitoring. The updated spcc/swpp plan includes a list
of individuals responsible for this task.
These individuals will also be informed of any future land disturbing activities. Future
land disturbances will be inspected prior to and during the process to ensure proper storm
water management.

Plan for removal of debris from Crabtree Creek:
A. Area and size of removal.
Hanson voluntarily proposed the removal of 'sand and gravel from the edge of Crabtree
Creek. Hanson proposes to remove material for the edge of the creek down to the level
of the water surface to at or near a low water mark for Crabtree Creek. We propose to
remove the material without entering the creels or disturbing the creek bottom at low
water flow.
B. Plan for removal
We, have safety concerns that make the use of shovels and buckets for the removal of
sand and stone from the creek edge a problem The creek bank is steep and the terrain is
rough making it would be difficult to negotiate the bank carrying buckets full of sand and
stone. We, therefore, propose to remove the debris from the creek edge through the use
of a backhoe and make repairs to the creek crossing road as follows. All work will be
done during dry weather to the greatest extent possible and to perform the work as
quickly as possible to minimize impacts on the creek. As stated above we do not propose
to enter the creek to perform this work or to remove material from the creek itself (during
low flow):
1 _ A backhoe will be used to remove the debris. The backhoe will be positioned along
the creek crossing road by removing the west wall of the basin or by removing a
portion of the surge pile and entering the creek crossing road from west of the motor
control building_ In either case the backhoe will not traverse the creek or creek bank
2, ,Remove three three inch, one five inch, one six inch and two trine inch diameter
(bad) trees from the creek bank to access the creek edge removal area with the boors
of the backhoe. The trees will be cut down as close to ground level as possible with
the stumps remaining in place. The area from which the trees are to be removed is the
same area where pumps and piping were installed when the plant was constructed.
3. Remove the debris by extending the backhoe boom to the edge of the creek at low
water and pulling the material back away from the creek and depositing each scoop
in the surge pile, if access is achieved from west of the motor control, or temporarily
depositing each scoop in the basin, if access is from the west wall of the basin. If
material is deposited in the basin it will be loaded into trucks and removed to an area
near the shop for final disposal. Material in the creek edge removal area will be
removed down approximately to the level of the creek surface.
4. Once completed, the creek bank will be graded to remove irregularities for a length
of approximately 12 feet and large flat blocks of stone will be laid against the bank to
protect it from erosion. Clean washed #57 stone will be placed between the blocks of
stone.
5. Determine the extent of the buried piping and remove if feasible.
6_ Cover creek crossing road with layer of rip rap and cover with washed #57 stone
from the edge of the west berm wall to near the intersection with the creek,
7. The west bean wall will be replaced as previously constructed if access I through this
area. The creek crossing road bank will be revegetnted if Access is from. the surge pile

Discharge of untreated Process Wastewater
NPDES Permit Certificate of Coverage NCG020052
Wake County
Dear Mr. Williams:
On July 2, 2007 and July 5, 2007, Judy Garrett of the Raleigh Regional Office conducted a compliance
inspection due to a citizen's complaint of a white plume observed in Crabtree Creek below the Quarry on -
Saturday. June 30, 2007, Ken Pickle of the DWQ Central Office accompanied Judy Garrett during the
July 5, 2007 site visit. This letter concerns a discharge of untreated process wastewater from a holding
pond breach which reportedly occurred on June 30, 2007. It also transmits the results of the compliance
inspection of the facility.
Judy Garrett visited the facility with Land Quality Inspectors, on July 2, 2007. It was found that on Friday
June 29, 2007, the holding pond -berm at the rock crusher failed and about 50,000 gallons of untreated
water and solids was discharged to Crabtree Creek after Hanson staff left the facility. It was reported that
the transfer pump in this pond was turned off and it had no float control. As a result, the berm failed
during the approximately 1 inch of rain that fell that night. This failure was found by Hanson staff at about
6 am on June 30, 2007. The berm was temporarily repaired, but no report of the discharge overflow was
made to DWQ. Additionally, a large deposit of wastewater solids was observed along the bank of
Crabtree Creek.
During this same site visit on July 2, 2007, evidence of solids discharge was observed from the piles of
material that had been removed from the ponds on the south side of Crabtree Creek. This material was
piled about 15-20 feet high beside the ponds, on the creek side. A previously constructed sediment basin
was full of solids and solids were traced down the creek bank to the creek.
During the July 5, 2007 site inspection, DWQ noted many deficiencies in the company's compliance with
permit requirements. A Stormwater Best Management Practices Plan is required which outlines the
BMPs that are in place to prevent contaminants form entering surface water via stormwater. The plan
must be improved to include all requirements of Part III Section A. of the permit. The plan must also
include Preventive Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Practices as required by this section. No
monitoring has been conducted on stormwater discharges, either analytical or qualitative as required by
Part III, Section B of the permit. All deficiencies are violations of Part III of the Permit.
The DMRs for the wastewater outfall 001 were reviewed and found to be complete.

#5372
August 10, 2005
Field Certification Inspection
Mr. Jeffrey R. Adams & Mr. Norm Good
Mr. Robert Snyder, Tony Harris, Kelly Tackett and Chip Lawler.
This laboratory was inspected to verify its compliance with the requirements of 15A NCAC 2H .0800 for
the analysis of environmental samples.
II. GENERAL COMMENTS:
The inspection consisted of reviewing data for NPDES #NCG020052. The staff is congratulated for
doing an excellent job of implementing the laboratory certification program. Very good bench sheets
and forms are used. For the most part all equipment is well maintained. Records are well kept and the
data appeared accurate.
A. Comment: For all benchsheets, it is recommended that the lab indicate which edition of the method
is being referenced. This will aid the analysts, when method changes are promulgated by EPA, to
maintain adequate documentation of their data.
III. DEFICIENCIES, REQUIREMENTS, COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS,:
pH:
1). Deficiency: The laboratory is not bracketing samples. Occasionally the sample results are outside
the range of the 7 buffer.
Requirement: The laboratory must calibrate the pH meter with at least two buffers and read the third
buffer below pH 10, approximately 3 pH units different from the second buffer and the reading should
be within 0.1 pH units from the expected value. Ref: Standard Methods 18`h Edition 4500-1-113. (4) (a)
p4-68.
Comment: The benchsheet already has a space provided to document the pH 10 buffer.
B. Comment: The laboratory is calibrating using the 4 and 7 buffer and not analyzing a third buffer as
the check.
Recommendation: It is recommended that the laboratory calibrate on a 4 and 10 buffer and analyze
the 7 as a check buffer.

Page 2
Hanson Aggregates, Inc.
C. Comment: The ATC temperature sensor is not checked annually.
Comment: Although not required unless temperatures are recorded on the DMR data sheets, It is
highly recommended that the ATC be checked annually.
Comment: "pH measurements are affected by temperature in two ways; mechanical effects that are
caused by changes in the properties of the electrodes and chemical effects caused by equilibrium
changes. "Because chemical equilibrium affects pH, standard pH buffers gave a specified pH at
indicated temperatures. "Always report temperatures at which pH is measured. Reference Standard
Methods 18th Edition 4500-H+B M (b) p 4-66.
2). Deficiency: One of the (3) pH meter probes was found to be kept in dry storage.
Requirement: The pH probe must be stored in the solution recommended by the probe manufacturer
between analyses. A solution with a conductivity greater than 4000 pmhoslcm is recommended. Tap
water is a better substitute than distilled water, but pH 4 buffer is best for the single glass electrode and
saturated KCL is preferred for the calomel and Ag1AgCl reference electrode. Saturated KCL is
preferred for a combination electrode. Keep electrodes wet by returning them to the storage solution
whenever the pH meter is not in use. Ref: Standard Methods 18" Edition 4500-H+ B., p 4-66.
IV. PAPER TRAIL INVESTIGATION:
A paper trail was conducted at this facility. This consisted of comparing laboratory bench data and
contracted data of several parameters with quarterly DMR reports from January 01, 2005 to June 23,
2005.There were no transcription errors detected.
V. CONCLUSIONS:
Correcting the above cited deficiencies and comments and implementing the
requirements/recommendations will help this lab to produce quality data and meet certification
requirements. Please respond to all the lettered comments and numbered deficiencies within
30 days after receipt of this letter.

Hanson Aggregates, Inc.

Morrisville, NC 27560
RE: Response to Plan for Removal of Debris Letter Dated August 17, 2007
Dear Mr. Snider:
A Notice of Violation (NOV) letter was issued on July 6, 2007 for the Hanson Aggregates
Southeast Crabtree Quarry. In response to this NOV, DWQ received a letter dated August 17, 2007
which summarized your plan to remove debris from the Crabtree Creek.
Due to safety issues DWQ agrees that you remove the debris with a backhoe. Please be advised that you
should not disturb the natural substrate or stream bank of Crabtree Creek. Since you will be using a
backhoe DWQ agrees with the removal of three three inch, one five inch, one six inch, and two nine inch
in diameter trees.
At this time, you should not place the proposed 12-foot blocks of stone against the bank. If the bank is
unstable after the removal of debris then we will reassess the situation at that time.
Please feel free to call me at (919)-791-4251 if you have any questions or concerns pertaining to
this letter and or project. Your attention to this matter is greatly appreciated

PETITION FOR CONTESTED CASE
HEARING
Pursuant to N.C.G.S. §§ 15OB-23 and 143-215.1(e), Hanson Aggregates Southeast, Inc.
("Hanson") files this petition for contested case hearing to appcal the Assessment of Civil
Penalties in Case NO PC-2008-0004 (the "Penalty") by the Respondent North Carolina
Department of Environment and Natural Resources ("DENR" or "Respondent") concerning
Petitioner's stormwater facilities in Wake County. In support of this petition, Hanson
respectfully shows the Court the following:
Hanson appeals the Assessment of Civil Penalties in relation to, among other
things, the alleged failure to maintain a BMP Plan and the alleged failure to comply with the
inspection and maintenance requirements of its NPDES permit.
2. Pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 143-2 15. I(e), Hanson has specific appeal rights as a
permittee. Hanson is a "person aggrieved" as defined in N.C.G.S. § 15OB-2(6) because it is a
person directly and indirectly affected substantially in its person and property by the
administrative decision to assess a civil penalty.

3. In issuing the Assessment of Civil Penalty, DENR exceeded its authority and
jurisdiction, acted erroneously, failed to use proper procedure, acted arbitrarily and capriciously,
and failed to act as required by law. Hanson has not yet had the opportunity to conduct
discovery or to review all of the relevant documents with regard to DENR's decision to issue the
Assessment. Therefore, Hanson expressly reserves the right to rely on facts, grounds and
theories that are not known to it at this time and to amend this Petition as necessary.
4. This petition is filed in a timely manner because it is filed within thirty (30) days
of Hanson's receipt of the Assessment.
Based on the foregoing allegations, Hanson hereby requests a contested case hearing on
the above -referenced DENR decision, and requests that an Administrative Law Judge be
assigned to the case by the Office of Administrative Hearings.

RESPONSE TO NOTICE OF CONTESTED CASE AND ASSIGNMENT
NOW COMES Respondent, the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (hereinafter "DENR"), Division of Water Quality (hereinafter "DWQ"), by and through
its counsel, Roy Cooper, Attorney General of the State of North Carolina, and Jane L. Oliver,
Assistant Attorney General, and in response to the Notice of Contested Case and Assignment, says
that the Assessment of Civil Penalties, PC 2008-0004 (hereinafter "CPA") and transmittal letter
dated April 1, 2008, which was issued by DWQ, is the document which caused the filing of the
Petition for Contested Case Hearing. The CPA is attached hereto as Exhibit A and is incorporated
herein by reference.
PREHEARING STATEMENT
Pursuant to the Orders issued by the Honorable Donald W. Overby, Administrative Law
Judge, on May 2, 2008 and to N.C. Admin Code tit. 26, r. 03,0104, Respondent files the following
Prehearing Statement. The paragraphs of this Prehearing Statement correspond to those set out in
the Order for Prehearing Statements. Respondent reserves the right to amend this Prehearing
Statement as this case develops.

1. The issues to be resolved, and the statutes, rules and legal precedent involved:
This matter involves Petitioner's appeal of a CPA issued by DWQ against Petitioner in the
amount of twenty thousand seven hundred one dollars and twenty cents ($20,701.20), including
seven hundred one dollars and twenty cents ($701.20) in investigative costs. The issues to be
resolved are whether DWQ exceeded its authority, acted erroneously, failed to use proper procedure,
acted arbitrarily and capriciously, and failed to act as required by law in issuing the CPA and whether
Petitioner's rights were substantially prejudiced.
Controlling statutes and regulations include N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-214.7; N.C. Gen. Slat. §
143-215.1; N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-215.6A; N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143B-282.1(b); fresh surface water
quality standards for Class C waters codified at 15A NCAC 213.0211; the Neuse River Basin buffer
protection requirements codified at Title 15A NCAC 2B.0233; Stormwater General Permit rules
codified in Title 15A NCAC 2H, and any statutes and rules otherwise cited in the Findings and
Decision and Assessment of Civil Penalties, see Exhibit A. At this early stage of the proceedings,
Respondent cannot cite any legal precedent which might be relevant or controlling in this contested
case.
2. ' A brief statement of the facts and reasons supporting the party's position on each
issue in dispute:
On February 7, 2005, Petitioner Hanson Aggregates Southeast, Inc., was issued a certificate
of coverage (NCG020052) under Stormwater General Permit No. NCG020000 (hereinafter
"Permit") for Petitioner's rock quarry facility located off Duraleigh Road in Wake County, North
Carolina. On July 2, 2007 and July 5, 2007, DWQ conducted a site inspection of Petitioner's
facility. During the inspection, DWQ staff determined that on June 29, 2007, a holding basin berm
2

had failed resulting in a discharge of untreated mine wastewater and residuals into Crabtree Creek
and the riparian buffer. The discharge impacted approximately 75 linear feet of the stream.
On April 1, 2008, DWQ assessed a civil penalty against Petitioner for water quality violations
including the illegal discharge of untreated mine site wastewater and residuals into Crabtree Creek;
the failure to have an adequate stormwater best management practices plan; the failure to comply
with inspection and maintenance requirements for best management practices; the failure to perform
qualitative and analytical monitoring from February 7, 2005 to July 5, 2007; the failure to report the
illegal discharge to DWQ within 24-hours of the time Petitioner became aware of the discharge; the
violation of State water quality standards and the violation of the State's Neuse River Basin riparian
buffer protection rule. A more complete statement of facts and agency conclusions is set forth in the
copy of the CPA, attached as Exhibit A. Petitioner contends that DWQ exceeded its authority, acted
erroneously, failed to use proper procedure, arbitrarily and capriciously and failed to act as required
by law in issuing the CPA. Respondent contends that DWQ complied with all applicable statutes and
regulations in issuing the CPA and that its action is justified.
3. A list of proposed witnesses:
Respondent may call one or more of the following witnesses:
Tom Reeder, (former)Storm water Environmental Supervisor, DWQ Central
Office;
Ken Pickle, DWQ Central Office;
John Hennessy, Environmental Supervisor, DWQ Central Office;

i � Y
Additionally, Respondent may call as a witness any person familiar with DWQ's issuance of the
CPA, and any person whom the Petitioners may call as a witness. Respondent reserves the right
to supplement this list as it prepares for the hearing in this matter.
4. Whether you wish to pursue discovery. If so, the length of time required if different
from the time set in the Scheduling Order:
Respondent wishes to pursue discovery and intends to meet the September 8, 2008 discovery
deadline. However, Respondent reserves the right to request that the period for discovery be
extended, if necessary.
5. Requested location of hearing; if different from the location set in the Scheduling
Order:
Respondent does not object to the hearing location of Raleigh, North Carolina.
6. Estimated length of hearing:
The hearing length is estimated at one (1) day.

8. The date by which you will be ready to have a hearing in this case if different from
the date set in the Scheduling Order:

PART I INTRODUCTION
SECTION A: GENERAL PERMIT COVERAGE
All persons desiring to have facilities covered by this General Permit must register with the
Division of Water Quality (DWQ) by the filing of a Notice of Intent (NOI) and applicable fees.
The NOI shall be submitted and a certificate of coverage issued prior to any discharge of
stormwater associated with industrial activity, mine dewatering wastewater or process
wastewater that has a point source discharge to the surface waters of the state.
This General Permit covers mining and quarrying of nonmetallic minerals (except fuels)
including borrow pits that would not be covered under the statewide DOT stormwater permit)
and active or inactive mines 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 at the site of such operations and stormwater runoff from vehicle
maintenance areas. This General Permit also covers discharge of wastewater from processing
mined materials and rnine dewatering wastewater from the groundwater and/or stormwater that
accumulates in the mine pit.
Any owner or operator not wishing to be covered or limited by this General Permit may make
application for an individual NPDES permit in accordance with NPDES procedures in 15A
NCAC 2H .0100, stating the reasons supporting the request. Any application for an individual
permit should be made at least 180 days prior to commencement of discharge.
This General Permit does not cover activities or discharges covered by an individual NPDES
permit until the individual permit has expired or has been revoked. Any person conducting an
activity covered by an individual permit but which could be covered by this General Permit may
request that the individual permit be revoked and coverage under this General Permit be
provided.
Facilities submitting NOIs for coverage under this permit, prior to establishment or approval of a
Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for a priority pollutant(s) for stormwater discharges (i.e.
wet weather flows), tnay be covered under this permit during its term. For such facilities
continued coverage under the reissuance of this permit is subject to the facility demonstrating
that it does not have a reasonable potential to violate applicable water quality standards for such
pollutants due to the stormwater discharge(s). For facilities that do have a reasonable potential
for violation of applicable water quality standards due to the stormwater discharge(s) the facility
shall apply for an individual permit 180 days prior to the expiration of this general permit. Once
the individual permit is issued and. becomes effective the facility will no longer have coverage
under the general permit. A list of approved TMDLs for the state of North Carolina can be found

PART III MONITORING, CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR
PERMITTED DISCHARGES
SECTION A: STORMWATER BEST MANAGEINIEN"C PRACTICES (BMPS) PLAN
The pernittee shall implement stonnwater BMPs to ensure that contaminants do not enter
surface waters via stormwater that comes in contact with any unstabilized overburden,
raw materials, intermediate products, finished products, byproducts or waste products
located on the site covered by this pennit. A BMP Plan shall be developed in accordance'
with the requirements of this section. The BMP Plan requirement, or portions of the plan
requirement, may be met by utilizing appropriate requirements in other documented plans
specific to the permitted facility.
Management of Stormwater Runoff and Runon. The pennittee shall maintain stormwater
BMPs for land disturbance areas and outside process areas. In addition, controls should
be used to limit or isolate selected land disturbance and process areas and limit the
amount of off site stormwater runon to those areas. Appropriate Best Management
Practices (BMPs) should be used to divert, infiltrate, reuse or otherwise manage
stormwater runoff and runon in a manner that reduces pollutants in stormwater
discharges leaving the site. Appropriate BMPs may include but are not limited to:
vegetative swales, berms, use of reclaimed mine areas, and reuse of collected stormwater
(such as for an industrial process or as an irrigation source).
3. BMP Controls Inspection and Maintenance. All stormwater BMPs shall be inspected by
or under the direction of the permittee at least once every seven calendar days and within
24 hours after any storm event that results in a discharge. The BMPs implemented shall
be operated and maintained so that they are cleaned out when the sediment storage
capacity has been reduced by 50%. If any visible sedimentation is leaving the property,
corrective action shall betaken to reduce the discharge of sediments. Visible
sedimentation found offsite shall be recorded with a brief explanation as to the measures
taken to prevent future releases as well as any measures taken to remove the sediment that
left the site. All other stormwater specific controls (e.g. oil /water separators) shall be
inspected and qualitatively monitored (as per Part I11.13.3) on a semiannual schedule, once
in the fall (September -November) and once during the spring (April -June). A log of
sampling data and of activities taken to implement BMPs associated with the vehicle
maintenance activities shall be maintained and incorporated into the BMP Plan and kept
onsite for the duration of the permit tenn and made available to the Director upon request.
4. Erosion and Sedimentation Control. The permittee shall implement the management
practices and the erosion and sedimentation control measures that are included in the
mining permit or erosion and sedimentation control permit issued by the Division of Land
Resources. Compliance with the issued permit is considered a requirement of this
general permit. Any deviation from the issued permit, or aunendments to the issued
permit, that impacts water quality shall constitute a violation of the terms and conditions
of this general permit. A signed copy of the issued permit including the approved erosion
and sedimentation control measures and the reclamation plan shall be maintained on the
site at all times. Once an area is released by the Division of Land Resources in
Part III Page 1 of 9

Permit No. NCG020000
accordance with NCGS Chapter 74, Article 7, it shall no longer be subject to this general
permit.
Preventive Maintenance Inspections and Good Housekeeping Practices. Equipment
utilized during mining activity on a site must be operated and maintained in such a
manner as to prevent potential or actual pollution of the surface water or ground waters of
the state. Fuels, lubricants, coolants, and hydraulic fluids, or any other petroleum
products, shall not be discharged on the ground or into surface waters. Spent fluids sliall
be disposed of in a manner so as not to enter the surface waters or ground waters of the
state and in accordance with applicable federal disposal regulations. Any spilled fluids
shall be cleaned up to the maximum extent practicable and disposed of in a manner that
does not allow their entry into the surface waters or ground waters of the state.
Secondary Containment. The permittee shall provide secondary containment for bulk
storage of liquid materials, storage of Section 313 of Title fIl of the Superfund
Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority chemicals, or storage of
hazardous liquids substances to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater
runoff. If the secondary containment devices are connected directly to stormwater
conveyance systems, the connection shall be controlled by manually activated valves or
other similar devices (which shall be secured with a locking mechanism) and any
stormwater that accumulates in the containment area shall be at a minimum visually
observed for color, foam, outfall staining, visible sheens and dry weather flow, prior to
release of the accumulated stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if
found to be uncontaminated by the material stored within the containment area.
SECTION B: ANALYTICAL AND QUALITATIVE MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
FOR DISCHARGES COMPOSED ENTIRELY OF STORMWATER
Analytical monitoring for stormwater discharges shall be performed for parameters as specified
in `fables I through 4. All analytical monitoring shall be performed during a representative storm
event as defined in Part VII. For each parameter, the arithmetic mean of all analytical sampling
results collected during the term of the permit may be calculated for each individual outfall and
compared to the cut-off concentrations listed in Tables 2 and 4. If the arithmetic mean is less
than the specified cut-off concentration for a given parameter, the facility is not required to
continue annual monitoring for that parameter (at that outfall) until the last year of the permit
unless a significant change in facility operations or configuration occurs. If a cut-off
concentration results in discontinued analytical monitoring at an individual discharge outfall, the
pertnittee is required to maintain facility operations that ensure the continuation of stonnwater
runoff quality. The permittee must perform anal1ical sampling during the first and last year of
the permit term regardless of cut-off concentration conditions.
In situations where stormwater runoff is controlled by some type basin or retention/detention
pond, the following provisions are applicable for sample collection for analytical monitoring:
• Analytical monitoring for stormwater discharges from a basin or other similar control
structures must be performed within the first 30 minutes of discharge.
Part 11I Page 2 of 9

Permit No. NCG020000
Analytical monitoring for a basin /pond designed to contain the 10-year design storm (see
Part VII, Definitions) without discharging is not required. Qualitative monitoring for color,
foam, outfall staining, visible sheen and dry weather flow is the only monitoring requirement.
Analytical and qualitative monitoring are not required for a basin/pond designed to contain
the 25-year, 24-hour storm (see Part VII, Definitions) without discharging. A basin/ pond
meeting this provision is considered a non -discharging stormwater control.

condition are met.' No determination made during administrative review of claims that
noncompliance was caused by upset, and before an action for noncompliance, is final
administrative action subject to judicial review.
Conditions Necessary for a Demonstration of Upset
A permittee who wishes to establish the affirmative defense of upset shall demonstrate,
through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence that:
(1) An upset occurred and that the permittee can identify the cause(s) of the upset;
(2) The permitted facility was at the time being properly operated; and
(3) The permittee submitted notice of the upset as required in Part IV, E. 8 of this
general permit.
(4) The permittee complied with any remedial measures required under Part 1I, A. 2.
of this general permit.
Burden of Proof
In any enforcement proceeding the permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of an
upset has the burden of proof.
