Subject: Stormwater Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Permit No. NCG020717
Logsboro Mine
Edgecombe County
Dear Mr, Proctor:
On May 28, 2010 I made an inspection of the stormwater program for the Logsboro Mine facility located
near Tarboro with you and Mr. Buddy Rose. Your help was greatly appreciated. Attached is the inspection
checklist. The site was well managed to provide a nondischarge operation.
The site is an unattended sand mine, so there was no activity during our visit. The mine consists of an active
pit, an inactive pit, and a stormwater retention pond. All water is kept within these ponds, reportedly without
a discharge ever occurring. When dredging of the active pit is undertaken, a diesel hydraulic pump is run for
a few hours to pump water from that pit into the inactive pit. "Phis lowers the water level to just a few inches,
so mining can take place. The fresh sand is stacked around the perimeter of the pit to dewater, and is picked
up from there to be taken to the asphalt production plant in Rocky Mount.
Stormwater entering the active sand pit is only that which falls from the sky. Berms of sand around the pits
preclude any run-on, and also provide several feet of freeboard for the combination of groundwater always
present and stormwater captured by the pits. The low waterline in the pits verifies the claim that no water
has risen high enough to overflow into the final retention pond. That pond also has several feet of Freeboard
before water would discharge through a rock lined dam.
Previous versions of General Permit NCG020000 required only a list of Best Management Practices. The
revision effective January 1, 2010 requires a Stormwater Pollution Plan, which you provided. In coming
months employee training and qualitative observations are to be carried out and documented. Please read the
entire permit carefully to be sure Barnhill is meeting all the requirements for this location.
If you have any comments or questions about this inspection, please contact me at 919-791-4255 or

Subject: NPDES Stormwater Permit Coverage Renewal
Logsboro Pit
COC Number NCG020717
Edgecombe County
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under stormwater General Permit NCG020000
the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) is forwarding herewith the reissued stormwater General Permit. This permit
is reissued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of
Agreement between the state of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, dated October 15,
2007 (or as subsequently amended).
The following information is included with your permit package:
• A new Certificate of Coverage
• A copy of stormwater General Permit NCG020000
• A copy of a Technical Bulletin for the General Permit
• Two copies of the Tier 21 Exceedence Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Form for Stormwater
• One copy each of the Annual Summary DMR Forms for Stormwater and Wastewater
• Two copies of the Limit Violation DMR Form for Wastewater
• Two copies of the Qualitative Monitoring Report Form
The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater and wastewater, and it specifies your obligations with
respect to discharge controls, management, monitoring, and record keeping. Please review the new permit to
familiarize yourself with all the changes in the reissued permit. If your Certificate of Coverage (COC) restricts
authorization to discharge stormwater only (or other limited terms) based on your original application, or
subsequent modifications to your COC, you must continue to meet these requirements or contact the Stormwater
Permitting Unit to request a modification,of this renewal COC.
The more significant changes in the General Permit since your last Certificate of Coverage include the following:
Part II:
• Section B — Language referencing PAMS has been changed. Flocculants may now be used if evaluated
by the Division and administered in accordance with maximum application doses and other requirements.
Part III:
• Section A — The permit now requires a Stormwater Pollution and Prevention Plan (SPPP) tailored to the
mining industry, in lieu of a Stormwater BMP Plan.
• Section A - Inactive mines may be inspected on a reduced schedule: at least once per month and after
0.5" (or more) of rain. To qualify, inactive mines must possess an "Inactive Renewal" from DLR or certify
to DWQ the site has been stabilized. The permittee must notify the DWQ Regional Office of inactive
status. Discharges from inactive mines must still be monitored on the same schedule as active mines.

• Section B — Revised provisions require that stormwater discharges be sampled twice per year (instead of
annually), and that the sampling results be compared to new benchmark values. (The previous cut-off
concentrations have been removed.)
• Section B — Revised provisions require the permittee to execute Tier One, Tier Two & Tier Three
response actions, based on the first benchmark exceedence (Tier One) and the second consecutive
benchmark exceedence (Tier Two). Tier Two requires that the permittee institute monthly monitoring
(reported to the appropriate Regional Offices) instead of twice -per -year monitoring. Monthly monitoring
shall be done until three consecutive monitoring events show no benchmark exceedences.
• Section B — This part contains a new provision that four exceedences of any benchmark will trigger
increased DWQ involvement in the permittee's stormwater management and control actions. DWO may
direct the permittee to apply for an individual permit, institute specific monitoring, or may direct the
implementation or installation of specific stormwater control measures.
• Section B — The definition of "Representative Storm Event" (RSE) now allows 48 hours (instead of 72
hours) of little or no precipitation to precede an RSE.
• Section B — Stormwater discharges from a basin designed to contain the 10-year storm must now be
monitored.
• Sections B & C — Failure to monitor according to permit terms triggers monthly monitoring for the
remainder of the permit.
• Section C — Analytical monitoring for Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) has replaced the Oil & Grease
parameter in the previous permit.
• Section D — Qualitative monitoring must now be conducted during the same representative storm event
as the analytical monitoring.
• Section D —The permittee is required to keep a written record of his response to problems identified by
his qualitative monitoring observations.
• Section D — If the permittee fails to respond effectively to problems identified by qualitative monitoring, the
permittee may be required by DWQ to perform corrective action.
• Section D — Qualitative ROS: Representative Outfall Status may be granted for qualitative monitoring for
some Stormwater Discharge Outfalls (SDOs).
• Section D — If mines do not respond to problems seen in visual monitoring, DWQ may now require that
mines change the monitoring frequency, apply for an individual permit, implement in -stream monitoring,
install or modify structural stormwater controls, or implement other controls.
• Sections B, C, & D — Inability to sample due to adverse weather must be reported in the SPPP and
recorded in the Annual Summary DMR.
• Section E — A lower TSS Wastewater limit for PNA waters is included in the permit.
• Section E — All mining operations are now required to monitor TSS in'wastewater effluent discharges (not
only industrial sand mines). However, TSS limits only apply to industrial sand mining operations.
• Section E — Turbidity limits on effluent discharges have been removed; however, turbidity standards still
apply in the receiving waters.
• Section E — Approval of a Pumping O&M Plan may be required prior to coverage (for sites with
dewatering activities that have the potential to drain wetlands or other surface waters).
• Section E -- ATC Requirements have been changed for clarity. These requirements are now outlined for
Mine Dewatering Wastewater, Process Wastewater, Overflow From Non -Closed -Loop Process Recycle
Wastewater Systems, and Overflow From A Closed -Loop Process Recycle (CLPR).
• Section E — Monitoring for Fecal coliforms in discharges to SA waters has been clarified. Fecal coliform
monitoring is now required for all process and mine dewatering wastewater discharges to SA. waters.
Part IV:
• Section E — Items 1. and 2. require submittal of a new reporting form: the Annual Summary DMR. This
annual summary of the analLticamonitoring results should be submitted to the DWO Central Office by
March 1 at each year.
• Section E — Exceedences and violations must be sent to the appropriate DWQ Regional Office within 30
days of receipt from the lab.
• Section E — Results of "No Flow" or "No Discharge" must be recorded within 30 days from the sampling
period in the SPPP. "No flow" or "No Discharge" must also be reported on the Annual Summary DMR
form.

In accordance with your application for a discharge permit received on August 1, 2007,
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).
Please take notice that this certificate of coverage is not transferable except after notice to
the Division of Water Quality. The Division of Water Quality may require modification or
revocation and reissuance of the certificate of coverage.
Please be aware that mine dewatering at your site has the potential to impact adjacent
wetlands. The specific requirements for mine dewatering at facilities near wetlands can be found
in Section C, Part l,of your permit (Part 1II Page 5 of 9). You must have an approved
Operation and MonitorinE Plan before mine dewaterinLy discharges occur at your facility.
Discharging mine dewatering-wastewater without Plan approval will be subject to enforcement
action. An Operation and Monitoring Plan for your facility must be submitted to the Raleigh
Regional Office within 60 days of your receipt of this permit. Contact Ron Boone at the
Raleigh Regional Office at [phone] for more information about the approval process.
Please note that mine dewatering wastewater includes wet pit overflows caused solely
by direct rainfall and groundwater seepage for this type of mining operation. Any discharge of
this water (and any stormwater commingled with it) is subject to the effluent limitations in this
permit.
. This general permit allows the discharge of stormwater and certain types of wastewater
from your facility. In your application, you specified that only mine dewatering water would be
discharged from this facility. If separate point -source discharges of stormwater occur (i.e.,
stormwater not combined with mine dewatering water), you will be required to adhere to the Ox
conditions in this permit for stormwater discharges. Noi hCarolin,

Dear Mr. Brown:
Your facility's Notice of Intent (NOI) for permit NCG020000 was received by the Stormwater
Permitting Unit on August 1, 2007. However, a review of the NOI showed that the application is
incomplete. Before the NOI can finish being processed please provide information regarding the

site plan to complete our review. Though an 8"xl 1" site plan was provided, it is
not legible at that scale. Please provide a copy of the full size site plans that show
the location of mine dewatering and stormwater outfalls.
Please note that if the requested information is not returned to my attention by October 1, 2007
your application will be returned as incomplete.

Robert,
Went to site and met with Wesley Brown yesterday. The area where they're
currently digging is about 150' to 200' southeast of the wetland. "I -think
there is very little potential for wetland damage and suggest issuing the
permit I asked Mr. Brown to forward to me via email a copy of the BMP and
0&M plan for the site. See attached email if interested. Let me know if you
have any questions or concerns.

Ron / Michael,
I'm new in the office here in Raleigh. Please see permit application attached.
We have received an application for coverage under NCG02 (mine) from Wesley Brown of
Barnhill Construction Company. The Logsboro Pit facility drains to Swift Creek
(class WS-IV, NSW) in Tarboro (Edgecombe County). This is a sand/topsoil mine that
will have mine dewatering as described in the NOI. It does not require an ATC. They
have been issued DLR mining permit no. 33-41 on July 17, 2007. Does the RRO or DEH
have any concerns about: issuing this facility a COC for this general permit, and are
there any potential impacts to wetlands?
Thanks.

Ron / Michael,
I'm new in the office here in Raleigh. Please see permit application
attached.
We have received an application for coverage under NCG02 (mine) from
Wesley Brown of Barnhill Construction Company. The Logsboro Pit
facility drains to Swift Creek (class WS-IV, NSW) in Tarboro (Edgecombe
County). This is a sand/topsoil mine that will have mine dewatering as
described in the NOI. It does not require an ATC. They have been
issued DLR mining permit no. 33-41 on July 17, 2007. Does the RRO or
DEH have any concerns about issuing this facility a COC for this general
permit, and are there any potential impacts to wetlands?
Thanks.
