Subject: ANGUS MINE, CHARLES G.
Certificate of Coverage NCG020197
General Permit NCG020000
Formerly NPDES Permit NCO080128
Camden County
The Division of Environmental Management has recently evaluated all existing individual permits for potential
®coverage under general permits currently issued by the Division. 15A N.C.A.C. 2H .0127 allows the Division to
evaluate groups of permits having similar discharge activities for coverage under general permits and issue
coverage where the Division finds control of the discharges more appropriate in this manner. The Division has
determined that the subject discharge qualifies for such coverage. Therefore, the Division is hereby issuing the
subject Certificate of Coverage under the state-NPDES general permit no. NCG020000 which shall void NPDES
Permit NC0080128. This Certificate of Coverage is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina and the
US Environmental Protection Agency Memorandum of Agreement dated December 6, 1983 and as subsequently
amended.
11
If any parts, measurement frequencies or sampling requirements contained in this general permit are unacceptable to
you, you have the right to submit an individual permit application, associated processing fee and letter requesting
coverage under an individual permit. Unless such demand is made, this decision shall be final and binding. Please
take notice this Certificate of Coverage is not transferable. Part II, EA. addresses the requirements to be followed
in case of change of ownership or control of this discharge.
In the event that the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of nuisance conditions, the
Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including those as may be required by this Division, such as the
construction of additional or replacement wastewater treatment or disposal facilities. Construction of any
wastewater treatment facilities will require issuance of an Authorization to Construct from this Division.
Failure to abide by the requirements contained in this Certificate of Coverage and respective general permit may
subject the Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division of Environmental Management in accordance with
North Carolina General Statute 143-215.6A to 143-215.6C. Please note that the general permit does require
monitoring in accordance with federal law. The monitoring data is required to be submitted to the Division no later
than January 31 for the previous year in which sampling was required to be performed.

Certificate of Coverage No. NCG020197
The issuance of this Certificate of Coverage is an administrative action initiated by the Division of
Environmental Management and therefore, no fees are due at this time. In accordance with current rules, there
are no. annual administrative and compliance monitoring fees for coverage under general permits. The only fee
you will be responsible for is a renewal fee at the time of renewal. The current permit expires August 31, 1997.
This coverage will remain valid through the duration of the attached general permit. The Division will be
responsible for the reissuance of the general permit and at such time, you will be notified of the procedures to
follow to continue coverage under the reissued permit. Unless you fail to follow the procedures for continued
coverage, you will continue to be permitted to discharge in accordance with the attached general permit.
The. issuance of this Certificate of Coverage does not preclude the Permittee from complying with any and all
statutes, rules, regulations, or ordinances which may be required by the Division of Environmental Management
or permits required by the Division of Land Resources, the Coastal Area Management Act or any Federal or
Local other governmental permit that may be required.
If you have any questions or need additional information regarding this matter, please contact either the
Washington Regional Office, Water Quality Section at telephone number 919/ 946-6481, or a review engineer
in the NPDES Group in the Central Office at telephone number 919/733-5083.

2. Mine maps must be accurate and appropriately scaled drawings, aerial photographs or enlarged
topographic maps of the entire mine site. All aspects of the mine site must be clearly labeled on the
maps along with their corresponding (approximate) acreage. As a reminder, mining permits can
only be issued for up to 10 years; thus, all mine and reclamation maps must only denote those
activities that are untended to be conducted during the life of the mining permit. All maps must be
of a scale sufficient (see minimum requirements listed below) to clearly illustrate the following, at a
minimum:
a. Property lines of the tract or tracts of land on which the proposed mining activity is to be located
including easements and rights -of -way.
b. Existing or proposed permit boundaries.

permit boundary; if an adjoining tract is owned or leased by the applicant or is owned by the lessor of
the mine tract, names of owners of record of tracts adjoining these tracts, that are within 1,000 feet of
the mining permit boundary, must be provided on the mine map.

or leased by the applicant or is owned by the lessor of the mine tract, names of owners of record of
tracts adjoining these tracts, that are within 1,000 feet of the mining permit boundary, must be
provided on the mine map(s). NOTE: "Highway' means a road that has four lanes of travel or less

5. a. A buffer will be required between any mining activity and any mining permit boundary or right-of-
way. It may be an unexcavated buffer (no excavation, but roadways, berms and erosion &
sedimentation control measures may be installed within it), an undisturbed buffer (no disturbance
within the buffer whatsoever), or a combination of the two, depending upon the site conditions. Note
that all buffers must be located within the mining permit boundaries.
