RE: Expired Mining Permit No. 94-11
Washington County -.Landfill Cap Borrow Site
Washington County
Chowan River Basin
Dear Mr. Smith:
This is. to advise that -the County of --Washington is in
violation of Reclamation Condition No. 4 of Mining Permit No. 94-11
for failure to complete final reclamation at the Washington County
Landfill Cap Borrow Site in Washington -County within two (2) years
of completion of mining. The Annual Reclamation Report submitted
to this office in 1996 stated that mining stopped at this site on
October 8, 1994. In accordance with the permit and the Mining Act
of 1971, final reclamation of the entire mine site should have been
completed by October 8, 1996. An inspection by personnel of the
Land Quality Section's Washington Regional Office on March 25, 1997
revealed that although the site had been backfilled, an adequate
permanent groundcover has not been established do all areas
affected by mining activities at this site. Expiration of the
permit only precludes further mining operations; reclamation
requirements continue to remain in effect. Section 74-56 bf the
Mining Act of 1971 mandates initiation of bond forfeiture
proceedings for failure to reclaim in accordance with the
reclamation plan. Also, civil„penalties of up to $500.00 per day
for each day of the violation may be assessed under G.S. 74-64.
