On 12/6/12 Scott Vinson inspected the mine and determined that although the owner had continued to pay the annual fee, BIMS had changed the status of the permit to expired. So the site was then permitted 9/13/13 by NCG020852, but has yet to be inspected. It is a good thing that you have determined that the mining permit text doesn't specify that a discharge is expected, yet the Mine Plat presents the outlet. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

There seems to be some confusion on our end as to your comments in Sections 16 and 19 of the 8/21/13 report and Section 17 of the 4/8/13 report. In section 16, you state your records show our NPDES permit is either expired or inactive. In Section 19, you state we need to apply for or reactivate the NPDES permit in order to continue dewatering this mine. Also, in Section 17 of your 4/8/13 report, you state that our mine permit had been renewed. Is this the 40-17 or th CG02 6 that you reference in your report? I have talked with Ms. }}Avers (NCDENR Annual Administrating and Compliance Fee Coordination (919)-807-6321). he is showing that our G020646 as paid in February, 2013.

R: Lewis Construction Co., Inc. Attention: Mr. Harvey R. Lewis, Vice President Post Office Box 595 Greenville, North Carolina 27835 Dear Mr. Lewis: This is to inform you of noncompliance with mining permit No. 40-.17 issued to you and/or your firm to operate the Rosewood Mine in Greene County. On January 19, 2005, personnel of this office inspected the mine, as required by G.S. 74-56 of the Mining Act of 1971. The inspection disclosed that the operation was not in compliance with conditions of your mining permit. 1. Operating Condition No. 1. A. Any wastewater processing or mine dewatering shall be in accordance with the permitting requirements and rules promulgated by the NC Environmental. Management Commission. The inspection revealed mine dewatering activities at the site without the appropriate permit from the Division of Water Quality or approval from the Land Quality Section. 2. Operating Condition No. 4. C. Mining activities shall be conducted as indicated on the mine map dated September 11, 2001 and/or received by the Land Quality Section on March 27, 2003. Revisions to this mine map have been implemented at the site without prior approval, including affected area outside the current mine permit boundaries and-dewatering of the excavation. 943 Washington Square Mall, Washington, North Carolina 27889 Telephone 252-946-6481, FAX 252-3716 An Equal Opportunity Employer 50%recycled/10%post-consumer paper CERTIFIED MAIL E. R. Lewis Construction Co., Inc. ATTN: Mr_ Harvey R. Lewis, Vice President .January 21, 2005 Page 2 3. Operating Condition No. 10. A_ No on -site disposal of refuse or other solid waste that is generated outside the mining permit area shall be allowed unless authorization to conduct said disposal has first been obtained from the Solid Waste Section and the Land Quality Section, Department of Environment and Natural Resources. The method of disposal shall be consistent with the approved reclamation plan. The inspection revealed soil mixed with plastic, wood, other materials being stockpiled inside the excavation without prior approval of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. 4. Operating Condition No. 12. The operator -shall notify the Department in writing of the desire to delete, modify, or otherwise change any part of the mining, reclamation, or erosion/sediment control plan contained in the approved application for a mining permit or any approved revision to it. Approval to implement such changes must be obtained from the Department prior to on -site implementation of the revisions. A request has been made to increase the mine's permitted acreage. It' appears that the area has been affected prior to approval. The pending modification request made no mention of dewatering the excavation, or storage/disposal of materials generated outside the mining permit area. To correct the noncompliance you must: 1. IMMEDIATELY CEASE dewatering activities at the site until you have obtained approval from the Division of Water Quality AND modification of the existing mining permit to allow dewatering. 2. No additional area outside the current mining permit boundaries shall be affected until the current modification request has been approved. 3. WITHIN 15 DAYS OF RECEIPT OF THIS NOTICE remove all materials generated outside the mining permit area from the mining permit area OR request modification of the existing permit to allow for storage and/or disposal of select materials generated outside the mining permit area.
