COC NCG020529
Pitt County
In accordance with your application for a discharge permit received on April 25, 2000 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 May
9, 1994 (or as subsequently amended).
In the near future an individual permit will be developed to replace this general stormwater permit. The
new permit will include more monitoring and controls to help better protect the downstream water supply intake
for the City of Greenville. Upon that permit's issuance this certificate of coverage will be rescinded.
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 may be required.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Aisha Lau at telephone number (919)

Subject: Bunting Sand Mine
Notice of Intent to Issue General Permit
No. NCG 020000
Dear Mr. Tankard:
AUG 2 8 2000
By
This letter will confirm our conversation and site visit of August 17, 2000, regarding
Greenville Utilities' concerns associated with the issuance of a general permit for the
Clouting Sand Mine. It is our understanding that the wastewater discharge from the mining
operation would be routed through a pond to a canal that discharges into Johnson's Mill
Run. Johnson's Mill Run discharges into the Tar River within the critical area of our
watershed, one-half mile upstream of the raw water intake for the Greenville Utilities
Water Treatment Plant.
Because the wastewater from the mine will be discharged in close proximity to the
drinking water intake, we have heightened concerns about the potential impact on water
quality. Suspended solids that enter the Tar River from any mining operation could make
the raw water more difficult and costly to treat. "there is also a concern that the accidental
release of petroleum products from fuel storage areas or mining equipment could
potentially contaminate the water supply.
Given that the discharge from the mining operation has the potential to affect the drinking
water quality of more than 50,000 customers, it seems appropriate that an individual
NI'DES permit should be issued instead of a general permit. As we understand it, an
individual permit would require monitoring and effluent limitations to ensure adequate
protection for the drinking water supply. Additionally, we request that we be made aware
of any planned future permitted discharges within the critical area of the drinking water
intake.

Proposed Bunting Pit, Pitt County
Dear Mr. Davis,
April 18, 2000
i
Enclosed is an application package for a new mine site located on NCSR
1402(Barrus Construction Road) in Pitt County. The mine operator is proposing to permit
approximately 72 acres. This site is adjacent to the Bunting Pit that is permitted by APAC-
Carolina, Inc.(Barrus Construction Company).
The proposed.site is located on land owned by two different companies. Two land
entry agreements have. been completed. There is an existing pond located on the property
owned by APAC-Carolina, Inc that will be used initially as a sedimentiretention pond for
mine dtwatering. A copy of the NPDES application submitted to the Division of Water
Quality, Water Quality Section for this activity is enclosed.
The mine maps show the proposed excavation area to include 58.08 acres. The
proposed screening berm is shown approximately 300' east of the buffer zone and in the
proposed excavation area. The mine operator initially plans to only excavate up to the
proposed berm, but wants the entire area permitted and bonded in case plans change. This
will save the mine operator from having to submit a modification request at a later time.
The screening berm will be moved to the edge of the buffer zone if the area is excavated.
On March 30;-2000; I met with Henry Wicker, US Army Corps of. Engineers,
about the possibility of excavating the Clark Atkinson Canal.. The mine operator is
proposing to maintain a 50' buffer zone along both sides of the canal with this application.
Four copies of the mining application, mine maps, security bond form and a
$1,000.00 review fee are enclosed. If you have any questions or need additional
information, do not hesitate to contact me at (252) 94&7437.

start in the southwest corner of the proposed site and move -in
an easterly direction. The mine will then advance in a northerly
direction.
4. Describe specific erosion control measures to be installed prior to land disturbing activities and
during mining to prevent offsite sedimentation (include specific plans for sediment and erosion
control for mine 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 map(s) and provide typical cross-sections/construction
details of each measure. Engineering designs and calculations shall be required when needed to
justify the adequacy of any proposed measures.
An adequate gravel construction entrance will be installed as
shown on the mine map.
A gravel and rip rap spillway with -a rip rap lined swale will
be installed at the northeast corner of the existing pond.
A temporary sediment trap will be installed in the existing
ditch as shown on the mine map. A large portion of the existing
farm ditch will flow into the existing pond with a small ditch
modification at the northwest corner of the pond. This will
provide a longer retention time for sediment removal.
Typical details of these erosion control measures are included
with this mining application.

•A nonrefundable $50.00 permit application processing fee is required for minor permit modifications. Minor permit modifications include ownership transfers, name
changes, bond substitutions and permit renewals where the mine is inactive and fully stabilized. A minor permit modification also includes lands added to a permitted
area, outside of the minimum permit buffer zone requirements, where no plans for mining related disturbance of the added lands have been approved. All other
changes are considered major modifications.
"Acres for new permits and renewal permits means the total acreage at the site. Acres for major modification of permits means that area of land affected by the
modification within the permitted mine area, or any additional land that is to be disturbed and added to an existing permitted area, or both.
