Prepared:

Backgr6und
The following provides a short discussion on the siting and design components of
the Bright - Meiggs Track Sand Mine development plan which will employed to ensure
that no adverse impacts to existing aquatic resources willresult from implementation of
the mining; operation.
The 113.89 acre tract permitted for sand mining,does not support any vegetated
wetlands regulated by the US Army Corps of Engineers, as confirmed in a formal
wetland delineation confirmation and jurisdictional determination issued by the
Wilmington District Corps of Engineers on. I August 2011, action Id. SAW-2011-01138.
Non-vcgetated "waters of the United States" do'exist in the agricultural drainage
canals/ditches that abut the.property directly on three sides and -indirectly on one side
(east). A minimum 75-foot unexcavated perimeter buffer:will be maintained between the
edge of the thine and the-ditch/canal system. No adverse impacts to jurisdictional
vegetated wetlands will occur.
Mine Dewatering
The mine pit will be dewatered on an as needed basis within the prescribed limits
established by, the issued permits. A dewatering pump will be utilized to lower the static
ground water level table as mining progresses. A barge mounted stationary centrifugal
punip will be established utilizing a Godwin .model CD250 pump. Operating at the
manufacturers. recommend RPM setting, the pump can produce approximately 2000
gallons per minute, or an approximate maximum of 960,00.0 gallons per eight (8) hours of
operation. Discharge from the pump will be directed to a two (2) chambered
settling/recilarge basin located adjacent to the-entradde: of the mine. The settling/recharge
basin is designed to reduce the amount.of suspended solids in.the discharged groundwater
by increasing the time for•particulatesland settleable solids to precipitate out of the water
column prior to being discharged into the adjacent'drainage canal system. This canal is
B,& M,tnvestments O & M Plan

linked to several other existing draitiage canals and farm field ditches in the area. The
canal system functions, in part, as an extensive recharge swale allowing the water to
percolate downward into the sub -surface aquifer.
Recharge Potential
The Bonney Bright Sand Company also owns and operates two other sand mines in the
region. One is located in the southern end of Virginia Beach, Virginia and the other mine
is located.in Currituck County, North Carolina. Although pump discharge volume data is
collected at the Currituck County mine, discharge volume data at the permitted NPDES
outfall has not been collected, ,therefore calculations of ground water recharge are not
available. However, as a basis for comparison, recharge calculations for the Virginia
Beach mine for calendar year 2009 are available. Mine water is pumped from the 70+
acre, pit to a surface dewatering and recharge swale. The main swale averages
approximately 20 feet wide,, 4 feet deep and is approximately 4,960 feet in length. In
addition, five (5) agricultural ditches totaling over 3,890 linear feet in length connect to
the surface dewatering and recharge swale. and provide additional storage capacity and
recharge potential. The volume of water pumped from the mine is recorded daily and
calculated using a pump specific discharge curvc. The volume of water discharged at the
VANPDES outfall #002 (WCS #5) is measured and recorded daily. Calculated volumes
at WCS #5 are based on measurements of the depth of overflow above the top flashboard
riser. The difference between the two measurements generally equates to recharge
volume achieved within the drainage/recharge swale system. Evapotranspiration accounts
for a small percentage of loss to the total recharge volume; increasing during the summer
months and decreasing in the winter months. The efficacy, of the existing recharge system
was calculated for CY 2009. Approximately 142,696 million gallons of water were
pumped from the mine while only 21,042 ,million gallons were discharged at WCS #5.
The remaining 121.654 million gallons were retained on -site and recharged into the soil
or lost through evapotranspiration. The ,figure suggests that approximately 85% of the
.B & M Investments

O'& M Plan
September 2011

water volume pumped from the mine -was retained, onsite and potentially recharged to
subsurface strata.
Considering the extensive ditch system that currently exists .both upstream and
downstream of the proposed mine discharge point, similar retention times and
groundwater infiltration rates would be expected since the subsurface geology is fairly
similar. However, surface loadings from adjacent farm fields, residential properties. and
other commercial developments within the commingled surface drainage system create
substantial problems in developing a reliable predictive model for subsurface recharge,
since input rates and volumes are unknown. No known water control structures, weirs or
similar structures are located within a reasonable distance from the proposed mine'where
flow measurements could be taken that would accurately account for or predict recharge
effectiveness.
Mine Buffers
A ininimum,50-foot vegetated buffer and a 75-foot unexcavated perimeter bufferhave
been incorporated into the approved mining plan. All surface drainage within the
confines of the perimeter buffers will be graded and sloped directing surface runoff to the
interior of the mine pit. The collected runoff will be comingled with mine dewatering
efforts and pumped to the surface into a two -chambered settling basin. The settling basin
will provide resident time for particulates and settleable solids to precipitate out of the
water column prior to water being discharged into the surrounding agricultural
ditch/canal.system.
Quantity of Surface Discharge
'fhe quantity of discharge from the borrow pit dcwatering operations will vary
significantly overtime as the -mining operations increase vertically and horizontally.

Bright — Meiggs,Tract

Surface discharge rates.will be recorded daily by logging the duration and RPM of the
dewatering pump. Daily -discharge volumes will be calculated utilizing the pump's
manufacturer's discharge curve. Measurements will be recorded daily and reported as
prescribed in the NPDES pen -nit. A rain gauge will also be installed and read and
recorded daily.
Quality of Surface Water Discharge
The quality of pit discharge water will' be monitored in order to determine any changes in
water chemistry over time. Samples will be taken at the mine discharge outfall as it enters
the agricultural drainage canals (waters of the US). Grab samples will be taken on a
quarterly basis and reported as prescribed in the NPDES permit. The following
parameters will be measured:.
• Settle Solids
• Total Suspended Solids
• Turbidity
• pH
• Total Flow
Groundwater Recharge
Once the comingled stormwater and mine wastewater is discharged from the
settling basin, the water will enter an extensive system of agricultural ditches an&canals;
which ultimately drain to the Inter -Coastal Waterway, approximately 3.5 miles to the
wesi. This drainagesystem traverses a number of different soils series, however most
series do not posses a functional aquatard within a zone from to 2 to 6.5 feet below the
ground surface. Since the water depth within the canals averages 3-4 feet,beltiw the
ground surface, the entire canal system is capable of functioning as a groundwater

recharge system through those porous layers. As a consequence, all of the water
discharged from the setting basin into the canal system has the potential to recharge back
into the surface aquifer as water is removed from lower in the soil profile.
Ground Water Monitoring Plan
B- & M Investments proposes to install four (4) groundwater monitoring wells
surrounding the proposed mine. Monitoring Well #1 (MW'#I) will be installed in the
"vegetated buffer zone" located between the mine and the adjacent private wells. Three
(3) additional wells will be installed at the northwest, northeast and southeast comers of
the mine (see attached well location plan). MW #Fwill be'advanced to 75 feet below the
surface to monitor ground water: conditions between the two residential wells and the
mine. The other three (3) wells will be advanced to 70 feet.
• Sampling metrics will include, at a minimum:
o Water level
o Chloride
o Sodium
o pH
o Specific conductivity
• Sampling frequency will be conducted on a� quarterly basis. Reporting frequency
will be determined by the regulatory agency(ies).
Baseline Sampling Plan:
After -all necessary permits° and authorizations for the' mine Have been secured, the
permittee will attempt to seek authorization from -the two adjacent property owners who's
wells are located within 500' feet of the edge of the mine pit fo-collect water samples to

establish baseline ground water quality data. Future sampling events at MW #1 may be
compared to the baseline data acquired from the residential wells. Sampling protocols
would include:
• Water samples will be collected from the residential wells (if permitted by the
property owners) at least twice (2), at approximately 60 and 30 days prior to the
anticipated start of mine dewatering operations
Although the specific sampling metrics would be established by permit
conditions, the BBSC proposes to. sample, at a minimum, the following
parameters:
o Chloride
o Sodium
o pH
:- Specific conductivity
• One baseline water sample will be collected at each of the four (4) wells prior to
the initiation of pit watering. Thereafter, periodic sampling will commence and
will be reported pursuant to permit conditions.
Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan will be prepared for the facility which will
provide a thorough discussion of the best management practices (BMPs) to be employed
at the mine.

Background
The following provides a short discussion on the siting and design components of
the Bright — Meiggs Track Sand Mine development plan which'will employed -to ensure
that no adverse impacts to existing aquatic resources will -result from implementation of

Wilmington'District Corps of Engineers on. I August 2011, action id. SAW -201 1-01 138
Nola -vegetated "waters of the United States" do exist in the agricultural drainage
canals/ditches that abut the.property directly on three sides and -indirectly on one side
(east). A minimum 75-foot unexcavated peririlcter buffer.will be maintained between the
edge of the mine and the-ditch/canal system. No adverse impacts to jurisdictional
vegetated wetlands will occur.
Mine Dewatering
The mine pit will be dewatered on an as needed basis within the prescribed limits
established by,ihe issued permits. A dewatering pump will be utilized to lower the static

The Bonney Bright Sand Company also owns and operates two other sand mines in the
region. One is located in the southern end of Virginia Beach, Virginia and the other mine
is located in Currituck County, North Carolina. Although' pump discharge volume data is
collected at the Currituck County mine, discharge volume data at the permitted NPDI;S
6utfall has not been collected, ,therefore calculations of'ground water recharge are not
available. However, as a basis for comparison, recharge calculations for the Virginia
Beach mine for calendar year 2009 are available. Mine water is pumped from the 70+
acre. pit to a surface dewateriitg and recharge swale. The main swale averages
approximately 20 feet wide,, 4 feet deep and ,is approximately 4,960 feet in length. In
addition, five (5) agricultural ditches totaling over 3,890 linear feet in length connect to
the surface dewatcring and recharge swale. and .provide additional storage capacity and
recharge potential. The volume of water bumped from the mine is recorded daily and
calculated using a pump specific discharge curve. The volume of water discharged at the
VANPDES outfall #002 (WCS #f5) is measured and recorded daily. Calculated volumes
at WCS15 are based on measurements of the depth of overflow above the top fiashboard
riser. The difference between the two measurements generally equates to recharge
volume achieved within the drainage/recharge swale system. Evapotranspiration accounts
for a small percentage of loss to the total recharge volume; increasing during the summer

was calculated for CY 2009. Approximately 142,696 million gallons of water were
pumped, from the mine while only 21,042 million gallons were discharged at WCS #5.
The remaining 121.654 million gallons were retained on -site and recharged into the soil
or lost ihraugh evapotranspiration. The figure suggests that approximately $5% of the

water volume pumped from the mine was retained onsite and potentially recharged to
subsurface strata.
Considering ;the extensive ditch system that currently ekists both upstream and
downstream of the proposed mine discharge point, similar retention times and
groundwater infiltration rates would be expected since the 'subsurface geology is fairly
similar. However, surface loadings from adjacent farm fields, residential properties and
other commercial developments within the commingled surface drainage system create
substantial problems in developing a reliable predictive model for. subsurface recharge,
since .input rates -arid volumes are unknown. No known water control structures, weirs or
similar, structures are located within a reasonable distance from the proposed mine where
flow measurements could be taken that would accurately account for or predict recharge
effectiveness.
Mine Buffers
A minimum,50-foot vegetated buffer and a 75-Foot unexcavated perimeter buffer have
been incorporated into the approved mining plan. All surface drainage within the
confines of the perimeter buffers will be graded and sloped directing surface runoff to the
interior of the mine pit. The collected runoff will be comingled with mine dewatering
efforts and puinped to the surface into atwo-chambered settling basin. The settling hasin
will provide resident time for particulates and settleable solids to precipitate out of the
water column prior to water being discharged into the stirroundih&agricultural
ditch/canal system.
Quantity of Surface Discharge
'fhe quantity of discharge from the borrow pit dcwatering operations will vary
significantly over'time,as the.mining operations increase veitically and horizontally.

Surface discharge rates will 'be.recorded daily by logging the duration and RPM of the
dewatering pump. Daily -discharge volumes will be calculated utilizing the pump's
manufacturer's discharge curve. Measurements will be recorded daily and reported as
prescribed in the NPDES permit. A rain gauge will also be installed and read and
recorded daily.
Quality of Surface Water Discharge
The quality of pit discharge water will be monitored in order to determine any changes in
water chemistry overtime. Samples will be taken at the mine discharge outfall as it enters
the agricultural drainage canals (waters of the US). Grab samples will be taken on a
quarterly basis and reported as prescribed in the NPDES permit. The following
parameters will be measured:
• Settle Solids
• Total Suspended Solids
• Turbidity
• pH
• Total Flow
Groundwater: Recharge
Once the comingled stormwater and mine wastewater is discharged from the
settling basin, the water will enter an extensive system of agricultural ditches and cabals,
which ultimately drain to the Inter -Coastal Waterway, approximately 3.5 miles to the
west. This drainage system traverses a number of different soils series, however most
series do not posses a functional aquatard within a zone from to-2 to 6.5 feet below the
ground surface. Since the water depth within the canals averages 3-4 feet below the
ground surface, the entire canal system is capable of functioning as a ground water

recharge system through those porous layers. As a consequence, all of the water
discharged from,the setting basin into the canal system has the potential to recharge back
into the surface aquifer as water is removed from lower in the soil profile.
Ground Water'Monitoring Plan
13- & M Investments proposes to install four (4) groundwater monitoring wells
surrounding the proposed mine. Monitoring Well#t (MW' N1) will be installed in the
"Vegetated.Viffer zone" located between the mine_ and the adjacent private wells. Three
(3) additional wells will be installed at the northwest, northeast.and southeast corners of
the mine (see attached well location plan). MW 1#1,will be idvanced to 75 feet below the
surface to :monitor ground water. -conditions between the'two residential wells and the
thine. The other three (3) wells will bc�advanced to 70 feet.
• Sampling metrics will include, at a minimum:
o Water level
o Chloride
o Sodium
• pH
o 'Specific conductivity
• Sampling frequency will be conducted on a.quarterly basis. Reporting frequency
will be determined by the regulatory agency(ies).
Buseiine Sampling Plan:
ARen,'all necessary permits and authorizations for the, mine have been secured, the
Mrpittee will attempt to seep authorization from.the.two adjacent property owners who's
well's are located within 500 feet of the edge of the rnihe'pit'to collect water samples to

establish baseline ground water quality data. Future sampling events at MW 41 may be
compared to the baseline data acquired from the residential wells. Sampling protocols
would include:
• Water samples will be collected from the residential wells (if permitted by the
property owners) at least twice (2), at approximately 60 and 30 days prior to the
anticipated start of mine dewatering operations
Although the specific sampling metrics' would be established by permit
conditions, the BBSC proposes to sample, at a minimum, the following
parameters:
o Chloride
o Sodium
PH
Specific conductivity
• One baseline water sample will' be collected at each of the four (4) wells prior to
the initiation of pit watering. Thereafter, periodic sampling will commence and
will be reported, pursuant to permit conditions.
Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan will lie prepared for the facility which will
provide a tliorough discussion of the best management practices (BMPs) to be employed
at the mine.

Background
The following provides a short discussion on the siting and design components of
the Bright — Meiggs Track Sand Mine development plan which will employed to ensure
that no adverse impacts to existing aquatic resources will result from implementation of
the mining operation.
The 11189 acre tract -permitted for sand -mining does'not`suppart:anyy_egetated--3 �1p.0,14

Non -vegetated "waters of the United States" do exist in the agricultural drainage
wcanals/ditches that-ablt the property directly on three sides and_indirectly on one side

Mine Dewatering
The mine pit will be dewatered on an as needed basis within the prescribed limits
established by the issued permits. A dewatering pump will be utilized to lower the static
ground water level table as mining progresses. A barge mounted stationary centrifugal
pump will be established utilizing a Godwin model CD250 pump. Operating at the �QD
manufacturers recommend RPM setting, the pump can produce approximately"2000
gallons per mimtte, or an approximate maximum of 960,000 gallons per eight (8) hours of
operation. Discharge from the pump will be directed to a two (2) chambered
settling/recharge basin located adjacent to the entrance of the mine. The =settling/recharge E .1

The Bonney Bright Sand Company also owns and operates two other sand mines in the
region. One is located in the southern end of Virginia Beach, Virginia and the other mine
is located in Currituck County, North Carolina. Although-pump,discharge_volume_daw.is

tavailab]63However, as a basis for comparison, recharge calculations for the Virginia . Lbn
Beach mine for calendar year 2009 are available. Mine water is pumped from the 70+
acre pit to a surface dewatering and recharge swale. The main swale average
approximately 20 feet wide, 4 feet deep and is approximately 4,960 feet in length. ]n
addition, live (5) agricultural ditches totaling over 3,890 linear feet in length connect to
the surface dewatering and recharge Swale and provide additional storage capacity and
recharge potential. The volume of water pumped from the mine is'recorded daily and
calculated using a pump specific discharge curve. The volume of water discharged at the
VANPDES outfall #002 (WCS #5) is measured and recorded daily. Calculated volumes
at WCS #5 are based on measurements of the depth of overflow above the top flashboard
riser. The difference between the two measurements generally equates to recharge
volume achieved within the drainage/recharge swale system. Evapotranspiration accounts
for a small percentage of loss to the total recharge volume; increasing during the summer
months and decreasing in the winter months. The efficacy of the existing recharge system Cyr-SS'ny as
S was calculated for CY 2009. Approximately 142,696 million gallons of water were
700,0o0
_pumped from the while only 21,042 million gallons discharged at WCS #5.

The remaining 121.654 million gallons were retained on -site and recharged into the soil Z p� ;,`f `?ear

Considering the extensive ditch system that currently exists both upstream and
downstream of the proposed mine discharge point, similar retention times and
groundwater infiltration rates would be expected since the subsurface geology is fairly
similar. However, surface loadings from adjacent farm fields, residential properties and
other commercial developments within the commingled surface drainage system create
-s'ubstantial problems in developing a reliable predictive model for subsurface recharge,
since input rates and volumes are unknown. No known water control structures, weirs or
imilar structures are located within a reasonable distance from the proposed mine where
flow measurements could be taken that would accurately account for or predict recharge
effectiveness.

Mine Buffers
Sao µ-icy n�� Q- IJO'&30_J•
A minimum 50-foot vegetated buffer and a 75-foot unexcavated perimeter buffer have
been incorporated into the approved mining plan, All surface drainage within the
confines of the perimeter buffers will be graded and sloped directing surface runoff to the
interior of the mine pit. The collected runoff will be comingled with mine dewatering
efforts and pumped to the surface into a two -chambered settling basin. The settling basin
will provide resident time for particulates and settleable solids to precipitate out of the.

Quality of Surface Water Discharge
The quality of pit discharge water will be monitored in order to determine any changes in
water chemistry over time. Samples will be taken at the mine discharge outfall as it enters
the agricultural drainage canals (waters of the US). Grab samples will be taken on a
quarterly basis and reported as prescribed in the NPDES permit. The following
parameters will ;be measured:
• Settle Solids
r'
• Total Suspended Solids
• Turbidity
• pH
• Total Flow
Groundwater Recharge
Once the comingled stormwater and mine wastewater is discharged from the
settling basin, the water will enter an extensive system of agricultural ditches and canals,
which ultimately drain to the Inter -Coastal Waterway, approximately 3.5 miles to the
west. This drainage system traverses a number of different soils series, however most
series do not posses a functional aquatard within a zone from 2 to 6.5 feet below the
ground surface. Since the water depth within the canals averages 3-4 feet below the
ground surface, the entire canal system is capable of functioning as a ground water

discharged from the setting basin into the canal system has the potential to recharge back
into the surface aquifer as water is removed from lower in the soil profile. Oak ;o i 6W

Hello Al & Samir,
Hope you both are well!
We've received an NOI from Bonny Bright / B&M Investments for their sand mine in Southmills (Camden
County) for coverage under NCG02 (Mining SW/WW permit). The site discharges stormwater and mine
dewatering water into a UT to Dismal Swamp Canal (C, SW) through a settling basin.
Their Mining Permit (15-12) was issued on July 15, 2010, and DWQ told them they need to have the wetlands
delineated in 2009 and they needed a permit.
Some things about the site:
• I'm not sure if they have been mining already - because it was approved July 15, 2010? However, their
mining permit says that they shall not discharge mine dewatering water until they get a DWQ permit.
• They are located in the 20 Coastal Counties - do they need a State SW permit?
Name is not consistent with DLR permit, and the company they applied as - I don't think they are a
registered company in NC.
1 would suspect there are wetlands near this site - since they are discharging to a canal and near next
to the Great Dismal Swamp - but they had a USAGE JD (by Kyle Barnes) and I don't believe it says they
have wetlands on site. They do have waters of the US on their property.
• They are required by their DLR permit to install groundwater monitoring wells, monitor them
2x/month, in order for them to determine s pre-existin g gw levels (see attached DLR permit).
• 1 have sent you a copy of the plans in the mail, and have attached the NOI and a copy of the JD.
They DO have a copy of their pumping operation and monitoring plan - woo hoo! I have attached for your
approval.

Bright-Meiggs Tract
Camden County
The Division of Water Quality's Stormwater Permitting Unit received a National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) permit application for Bright-Meiggs Tract on September 7, 2011. The
application included a copy of an associated application for a mining permit submitted to the Division of
Land Resources (DLR). Please be aware that the issuance of an NPDES permit is contingent upon the
issuance of an associated mining permit from DLR. Our -off ce=will=process--your-stormwater=permits
appiication=once a-DE-Rmining-permit-has-been-i`ssued_forLyo,ur_project.
Please note that the owner name on your application .must be consistent with the application name on
DLR's application. Additionally, if the owner name is a company or LLC, that company must be a
registered company in the State of North Carolina. More information can be found on the NC Department of
the Secretary of State: http:l/www.secreta!y.state.nc.us/cor;)orations/.
Information on the signatory requirements for applications can be found in the permit — Part IV,
Section B, 5.
Please also be aware that if your project is located near wetlands, your NPDES permit will require
dewatering operations without wetland impacts. The specific requirements for mine dewatering at facilities
near wetlands can be found in the text of the general NPDES mining permit number NCG 020000 available
on our website. A_n=approved;Operation-and=Monitb-ti— g-Flan=is-required-for-NPDES=permitted:miningr

Hello Al & Samir,
Hope you both are well!
We've received an N01 from Bonny Bright / B&M Investments for their sand mine in Southmills
(Camden County) for coverage under NCG02 (Mining SW/WW permit). The site discharges
stormwater and mine dewatering water into a UT to Dismal Swamp Canal (C, SW) through a
settling basin.
Page 4 of 5

NCG02 Stormwater Permit: Mining Permit Review
Their Mining Permit (15-12) was issued on July 15, 2010, and DWQ told them they need to have
the wetlands delineated in 2009 and they needed a permit.
Some things about the site:
• I'm not sure if they have been mining already — because it was approved July 15, 2010?
However, their mining permit says that they shall not discharge mine dewatering water
until they get a DWQ permit.
• They are located in the 20 Coastal Counties — do they need a State SW permit?
a Name is not consistent with DLR permit, and the company they applied as - I don't think
they are a registered company in NC.
• 1 would suspect there are wetlands near this site — since they are discharging to a canal
and near next to the Great Dismal Swamp — but they had a USACE JD (by Kyle Barnes)
and I don't believe it says they have wetlands on site. They do have waters of the US on
their property.
• They are required by their DLR permit to install groundwater monitoring wells, monitor
them 2x/month, in order for them to determine pre-existing gw levels (see attached
DLR permit).
• 1 have sent you a copy of the plans in the mail, and have attached the NOI and a copy of
the JD.
They DO have a copy of their pumping operation and monitoring plan — woo hoo! i have attached for your approval.
Does the Washington Regional Office have any concerns about issuing this facility a COC for this
general permit, and are there any potential impacts to wetlands? If we don't receive any
objections, we'll issue the CDC in 30 days. Please let me know when you are done reviewing
the O&M -plan

Jen

In accordance with your complete application for a discharge permit received on
December 1, 2011, 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 October 15, 2007
(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 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-sourcc discharges of stormwater occur (i.e.,
stormwater not combined with mine dewatering water), you will be required to adhere to the
conditions in this permit for stormwater discharges.
Additionally, new coastal stormwater management rules (SESSION LAW 2008-21 1)
were implemented October 1, 2008. Due to these new rules you may be required to apply for an
additional Coastal State Stormwater Permit. Please contact Samir Dumpor in the Washington
Regional Office to determine if you will be required to submit an application for this additional
permit.

Hello,
spoke with Harold Jones [phone] today by phone, which gave me more comfort in the information that is
presented in the O&M Plan that has been submitted. Samir is going to speak to him about State SW, as well as reiterate
the program requirements that we are to protect.
As soon as I receive an emailed cover letter or other form of written documentation to be added to the O&M Plan stating:
1) - State SW will be discussed with Samir Dumpor [phone].
2) - 404/401 approvals will be obtained as required, as related to the area Waters of the US.

Hello Al & Samir,
Hope you both are well!
We've received an NOI from Bonny Bright / B&M Investments for their sand mine in Southmills
(Camden County) for coverage under NCG02 (Mining SW/WW permit). The site discharges
stormwater and mine dewatering water into a UT to Dismal Swamp Canal (C, SW) through a
settling basin.
Page 4 of 5

'y NCG02 Stormwater Permit: Mining Permit Review
Their Mining Permit (15-12) was issued on July 15, 2010, and DWQtold them they need to have
the wetlands delineated in 2009 and they needed a permit.
Some things about the site:
• I'm not sure if they have been mining already — because it was approved July 15, 2010?
However, their mining permit says that they shall not discharge mine dewatering water
until they get a DWQ permit.
• 1 would suspect there are wetlands near this site — since they are discharging to a canal
and near next to the Great Dismal Swamp — but they had a USACE JD (by Kyle Barnes)
and I don't believe it says they have wetlands on site. They do have waters of the US on
their property.
• They are required by their DLR permit to install groundwater monitoring wells, monitor
them 2x/month, in order for them to determine pre-existing gw levels (see attached DLR
permit).
• 1 have sent you a copy of the plans in the mail, and have attached the N01 and a copy of
the JD.
They 00 have a copy of their pumping operation and monitoring plan — woo hoo! I have attached for your approval.
Does the Washington Regional Office have any concerns about issuing this facility a COC for this
general permit, and are there any potential impacts to wetlands? If we don't receive any
objections, we'll issue the COC in 30 days. Please let me know when you are done reviewing
the 0&M plan
Thanks,
Jen

Dear Mr. Bright:
Division of Water Quality
Coleen H. Sullins
Director
September 27, 2011
Subject: General Permit No. NCG020000
Bright-Meiggs Tract
Camden County
Dee Freeman
Secretary
The Division of Water Quality's Stormwater Permitting Unit received a National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) permit application for Bright-Meiggs Tract on September 7, 2011. The
application included a copy of an associated application for a mining permit submitted to the Division of
Land Resources (DLR). Please be aware that the issuance of an NPDES permit is contingent upon the
issuance of an associated mining permit from DLR. Our office will process your stormwater permit
application once a DLR mining permit has been issued for your project.
Please note that the owner name on your application must be consistent with the application name on
DLR's application. Additionally, if the owner name is a company or LLC, that company must be a
registered company in the State of North Carolina., More information can be found on the NC Department of
the Secretary of State: htti)://www.secretary.state.nc.us/corporationsl.
Information on the signatory requirements for applications can be found in the permit — Part IV,
Section B, 5.
Please also be aware that if your project is located near wetlands, your NPDES permit will require
dewatering operations without wetland impacts. The specific requirements for mine dewatering at facilities
near wetlands can be found in the text of the general NPDES mining permit number NCG 020000 available
on our website. An approved Operation and Monitoring Plan is required for NPDES-permitted mining
facilities and may be required prior to permit issuance. Discharging mine dewatering wastewater without
Plan approval will be subject to enforcement action. A -Plan for your facility must be submitted to the
Washington Regional Office within 60 days of your receipt of an NPDES permit. We encourage you to
contact Al Hodge in the Washington Regional Office to address any wetland concerns for your facility in
order to ensure a successful NPDES application review.
Additionally, nev' coastal stormw;tter management rules (SESSION LAW 2008-211) were implemented
October 1, 2008. Due to these new rules you may be required to apply for an additional State Stormwater

SIC (Standard Industrial Classification) Code - 14XX Mineral Mining Industry (except as specified belool o
The following activities are also included: �.
• Active or inactive mining operations (including borrow pits —except for NCDOT borrow pits) that discharge
stormwater contaminated with or that has come in contact with, any overburden, raw material, intermediate
products, finished products, byproducts or waste products located on the`site of such operations;
• Stormwater from vehicle maintenance activities at mining operations;
• Overflow from facilities that recycle process wastewater; and/or
• Mine dewatering (wastewater)
The following activities are specifically excluded from coverage under this General Permit:
• Stormwater discharges associated with peat mining, coal mining, and metal mining;
• Stormwater discharges from mining operations which are intermixed on site with stormwater from asphalt
operations and/or concrete operations;
• Stormwater discharges associated with oil and gas extraction operations; and
• Stormwater discharges associated with tourist gem mines
• NCDOT borrow pits are covered under NCS000150
The following discharges are covered by NPDES general permit NCG520000 instead of NCG020000:
• Point source discharges of stormwater and wastewater from in -stream sand mining operations (i.e., sand
dredging or dipping operations)
For new mining sites that require an authorization to construct (ATC) wastewater treatment facilities: This
NOI is also an APPLICATION FOR an ATC for new wastewater treatment facilities. ATC requests must be
submitted at least 90 days prior to construction'.
For existin mining sites that require an Authorization to Operate (ATO) wastewater treatment facilities:
This NOI is also an APPLICATION FOR an ATO for wastewater treatment facilities in place.
Construction, modification, or installation of any new treatment components at an existing site requires an
ATC. (If the site is already covered by NCG020000, the ATC request may be submitted without an NOI).
Some wastewater treatment facilities used to treat or recycle wastewater at mining sites will require an ATC rp for
to construction per 15A NCAC 2H .0138. Please see the NCG020000 General Permit for details about which
treatment facilities require an ATC (summarized in Table 1 below). The authorization to construct or continue
to operate will be issued at the same time as the Certificate of Coverage (COC) for the NCG02 permit. Design of
treatment facilities must comply with requirements of 15A NCAC 2H .0138 & .0139.
Construction of wastewater treatment facilities subject to the AT0ATO requirements in the NCG02 permit
at new or existing mining sites requires submission of three (3) sets of plans and specifications signed

Background
The following provides a short diSCUSSiOn on the siting and design components of
the Bright — Meiggs Track Sand Mine development plan which will employed to ensure
that no adverse impacts to existing aquatic resources will result from implementation of•
the mining operation.
The 113.89 acre tract permitted for sand mining does not support any vegetated
wetlands regulated by the US Army Corps of Engineers, as confirmed in a formal
wetland delineation confirmation and jurisdictional determination issued by the
Wilmington District Corps of Engineers on 1 August 2011, action 1d. SAW-2011-01 138.
Non -vegetated "waters of the United States" do exist in the agricultural drainage
canals/ditches that abut the property directly on three sides and indirectly on one side
(east). A minimum 75-foot unexcavated perimeter buffer will be maintained between the
edge of the mine and the ditch/canal system. No adverse impacts to jurisdictional
vegetated wetlands will occur.
Mine Dewatering
The mine pit will be dewatered on an as needed basis within the prescribed limits
established by the issued permits. A dewatering pump will be utilized to lower the static
ground water level table as mining progresses. A barge mounted.stationary centrifugal
pump will be established Utilizing.a Godwin model CD250 pump. Operating at the
-. _. . manufacturers recornmend RPM setting, the pump can produce approximately 2000
gallons per minute, or an approximate nlaximtrtn of 960,000 gallons per eight (8) hours of
operation. Discharge from the pump will be directed to a two (2) chambered
settling/recharge basin located adjacent to the entrance of the mine. The settling/recharge
basin is designed to reduce the amount of suspended solids in the discharged groundwater
by increasing the time for particulates and settleable solids to precipitate out of the water
column prior to being discharged into the adjacent drainage canal system. This canal is

linked to several other existing drainage canals and farm field ditches in the area. The
canal system functions, in part, as an extensive recharge Swale allowing the water to
percolate downward into the sub -surface aquifer.
Recharge Potential
7
The Bonney Bright Sand Company also owns and operates two other sand mines in the
region. One is located in the southern end of Virginia Beach, Virginia and the other mine
is located in Currituck County, North Carolina. Although pump discharge volume data is
collected at the Currituck County mine, discharge volume data at the permitted NPDES
outfall has not been collected, therefore calculations of ground water recharge are not
available. However, as a basis for comparison, recharge calculations for the Virginia
Beach mine for calendar year 2009 are available. Mine water is pumped from the 70+
acre pit to a surface dewatering and recharge swale. The main swale averages
approximately 20 feet wide, 4 feet deep and is approximately 4,960 feet in length. Ill
addition, five (5) agricultural ditches totaling over 3,890 linear feet in length connect to
the surface dewatering and recharge swale and provide additional storage capacity and
recharge potential. The volume of water pumped from the mine is recorded daily and
calculated using a pump specific discharge curve. The volume of water discharged at the
VANPDES outfall #002 (WCS #5) is measured and recorded daily. Calculated volumes
at WCS #5 are based on measurements of the depth of overflow above the top flashboard
riser. The difference between the two measurements generally equates to recharge
volume achieved within the drainage/recharge swale system. Evapotranspiration accounts
for a small percentage of loss to the total recharge volume; increasing during the summer
months and decreasing in the winter months. The efficacy of the existing recharge system
was calculated for CY 2009. Approximately 142,696 million gallons of water were
pumped from the mine while only 21,042 million gallons were discharged at WCS #5.
The remaining 121.654 million gallons were retained on -site and recharged into the soil
or lost through evapotranspiration. The figure suggests that approximately 85% of the

water volume pumped from the mine was retained onsite and potentially recharged to
subsurface strata.
Considering the extensive ditch system that currently exists both upstream and
downstream of the proposed mine discharge point, similar retention times and
groundwater infiltration rates would be expected since the subsurface geology is fairly
similar. However, surface loadings from adjacent farm fields, residential properties and
other commercial developments within the commingled surface drainage system create
substantial problems in developing a reliable predictive model for subsurface recharge,
since input rates and volumes are unknown. No known water control structures, weirs or
similar structures are located within a reasonable distance from the proposed mine where
flow measurements could be taken that would accurately account for or predict recharge
effectiveness.
Mine Butters
A minimum 50-foot vegetated buffer and a 75-foot unexcavated perimeter buffer have
been incorporated into the approved mining plan. All surface drainage within the
confines of the perimeter buffers will be graded and sloped directing surface runoff to the
interior of the mine pit. The collected runoff will be comingled with mine dewatering
efforts and pumped to the surface into a two -chambered settling basin. The settling basin
will provide resident time for particulates and settleable solids to precipitate out of the .
water column prior to water being discharged into the surrounding agricultural
ditch/canal system.
Quantity of Surface Discharge
The quantity of discharge from the borrow pit dewatering operations will vary
significantly over time as the mining operations increase vertically and horizontally.

Surface discharge rates will be recorded daily by logging the duration and RPM of the
dewatering pump. Daily discharge volumes will be calculated utilizing the pump's
manufacturer's discharge curve. Measurements will be recorded daily and reported as
prescribed ill the NPDES permit. A rain gauge will also be installed and read and
recorded daily.
Quality of Surface Water Discharge
The duality of pit discharge water will be monitored in order to determine any changes in
water chemistry over time. Samples will be taken at the mine discharge outfall as it enters
the agricultural drainage canals (waters of the US). Grab samples will be taken on a
quarterly basis and reported as prescribed in the NPDES permit. Tile following
parameters will be measured:
• Settle Solids
• Total Suspended Solids
• Turbidity
• pH
• Total Flow
Groundwater Recharge
Once the comingled stormwater and mine wastewater is discharged from the
settling basin, the water will enter an extensive system of agricultural ditches and canals,
which ultimately drain to the Inter -Coastal Waterway, approximately 3.5 miles to the
west. This drainage system traverses a number of different soils series, however most
series do not posses a functional aquatard within a zone from to 2 to 6.5 feet below the
ground surface. Since the water depth within the canals averages 3-4 feet below the
ground surface, the entire canal system is capable of functioning as a ground water
13 & M Investments O & M Plan

recharge system through those porous layers. As a consequence, all of the water
discharged from the setting basin into the canal system has the potential to recharge back
into the surface aquifer as water is removed from lower in the soil profile.
Ground Water Monitoring Plan
B & M Investments proposes to install four (4) groundwater monitoring wells
surrounding the proposed mine. Monitoring Well #1 (MW #l) will be installed in the
"vegetated buffer zone" located between the mine and the adjacent private wells. Three
(3) additional wells will be installed at the northwest, northeast and southeast corners of
the mine (see attached well location plan). MW #1 will be advanced to 75 feet below the
surface to monitor ground water conditions between the two residential wells and the
mine. The other three (3) wells will be advanced to 70 feet.
• Sampling metrics will include, at a minimum:
o Water level
o Chloride
o SOdiL1117
o pH
o Specific conductivity
Sampling frequency will be conducted on a quarterly basis. Reporting frequency
will be determined by the regulatory agency(ics).
Baseline Sampling flan:
After all necessary permits and authorizations for the mine have been secured, the
perrnittee will attempt to seek authorization from the two adjacent property owners who's
wells are located within 500 feet of the edge of the mine pit to collect water samples to

establish baseline ground water duality data. Future sampling events at M W # 1 may be
compared to the baseline clata acquired fi•om the residential wells. Sampling protocols
would include:
+ Water samples will be collected from the residential wells (if permitted by the
property owners) at least twice (2), at approximately 60 and 30 days prior to the
anticipated start of mine dewatering operations
+ Although the specific sampling metrics would be established by permit
conditions, the BBSC proposes to sample, at a minimum, the following
parameters:
o Chloride
o Sodium
o pl-1
o Specific conductivity
+ One baseline water sample will be collected at each of the four (4) wells prior to
the initiation of pit watering. Thereafter, periodic sampling will commence and
will be reported pursuant to permit conditions.
Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan will be prepared for the facility which will
provide a thorough discussion of the best management practices (BMPs) to be employed
at the mine.

NOTES:
1) THOSE AREAS, AS DENOTED ON THE PLAN, INDICATE THE PROPOSED REGION TO BE RECLAIMED. THE
RECLAMATION PROCESS WILL BE AS FOLLOWS;
2) STOCKPILE AND PROCESSING AREA, SETTLING BASIN, AND BERMS TO BE LEVELED, GRADED AND
STABILIZED W/ PERMANENT VEGETATION. ALL SLOPES ASSOCIATED WITH THE EXCAVATED AREA OF THE
MINE SHALL BE STABIL1IED AND VEGETATED W/ PERMANENT VEGETATION WITHIN 21 DAYS OF COMPLETION
3) ANY DISTURBED LAND NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE DAILY OPERATION OF THE MINE SHALL BE STABILIZED
AND VEGETATED W/ PERMANENT VEGETATION WITHIN 21 DAYS OF DISTURBANCE.
SEEDING NOTES:
The minimum requirement for reclamation Is that all disturbed areas must be stabilized with a permanent
ground cover. It is recommended that due to the close proximity of the proposed mine to the Wildlife
Management Area close attention should be taken in the seeding of disturbed land. Plants should provide
erosion control, forage, and cover for a variety of wildlife as well as allow enable native grassed to
regenerate over time.
Staged seeding Is generally the most economical and efficient reclamation practice.
The following table provides seeding specifications for the Coastal Plain Regfon;
Seeding Mixture
Species (Ibs./oc.)
Korean or Kobe Lespedeza 30
Common Bermudogross 10
German Millet 10
Rye (groin) 40
Seeding Notes:
Where a neat appearance Is desired, omit Korean of Kobe Lespedezo
Use Common Bermudogross only In isolated areas where it cannot become a pest. Bermudogross may be
replaced with 5 Centlpedegross (5 lbs./ac.).
Nurse Plante:
Prior to May 1 or after August 15, (temporary winter seeding)
Seeding of Rye (grain) O 40 lbs./oc.
Seeding Dater
Aug 15—May 1.
(see nurse plants above)
Apr 1—Aug 15,
Seeding of German Millet O 10 lbs./ce.
Year Round.
Seeding of Korean or Kobe Lespedeza O 30 Ibs,/ac.
Sall Amendments
Apply lime and fertilizer according to soll tests, or apply 3,000 lb/or- ground agricultural limestone and
500 Ib/oc.
10-10--10 fertilizer.
Mulch:
Apply 4,000-5,DOO Ib./oc. groin straw or equivalent cover of another suitable mulching material. Anchor
mulch by
lacking with asphalt, raving, or netting, or by crimping with a mulch —anchoring tool. A disk with blades
set nearly
straight can be used as a mulch —anchoring tool.
Maintenance:
Refertilize the following April with 50 Ib/oc. nitrogen. Repeat, as growth requires. May be mowed only once
a year.
Where a neat appearance is desired, omit Sericea Lespedezo and maw an often as needed.

NOTES:
1) THOSE AREAS. AS DENOTED ON THE PLAN. INDICATE THE PROPOSED REGION TO BE RECLAIMED. THE
RECLAMATION PROCESS WILL BE AS FOLLOWS;
2) STOCKPILE AND PROCESSING AREA, SETTLING BASIN, AND BERMS TO BE LEVELED, GRADED AND
STABILIZED W/ PERMANENT VEGETATION. ALL SLOPES ASSOCIATED WITH THE EXCAVATED AREA OF THE
MINE SHALL BE STABILIZED AND VEGETATED W/ PERMANENT VEGETATION WITHIN 21 DAYS OF COMPLETION
3) ANY DISTURBED LAND NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE DAILY OPERATION OF THE MINE SHALL BE STABILIZED
AND VEGETATED W/ PERMANENT VEGETATION WITHIN 21 DAYS OF DISTURBANCE
SEEDING NOTES:
The minimum requirement for reclamation Is that all disturbed areas must be stabilized with a permanent
ground cover. It is recommended that due to the close proximity of the proposed mine to the Wildlife
Management Area close attention should be taken in the seeding of disturbed land. Plants should provide
erosion control, forage, and cover for a variety of wildllfe as well as allow enable native grassed to
regenerate over time.
Staged seeding is generally the most economical and efflclent reclamation practice.
The foliowing table provides Beading specifications for the Coastal Plain Region:
Seeding Mixture
Species
Korean or Kobe Lespedeza 30
Common Bermudagrass 10
German Millet 10
Rye (grain) 40
Seeding Notes:
Where a neat appearance Is desired, omit Korean of Kobe Lespedeza
Use Common Bermudogross only in Isolated areas where It cannot become a pest. Bermudograss may be
reptoced with 5 Centipedegross (5 lbs./ac.).
Nurse Plants:
Prior to May 1 or after August 15. (temporary winter seeding)
Seeding of Rye (grain) O 40 lbs./oc.
Seeding Dolas:
Aug 15-May 1.
(see nurse plants above)
Apr I -Aug 15,
Seeding of German Millet O 10 lbs./ac.
Year Round,
Seeding of Korean or Kobe Lespedezo 0 30 lbs./ac.
Soll Amendments:
Apply lime and fertilizer according to soli tests, or apply 3,000 lb/ac. ground agricultural limestone and
500 lb/oc.
10-10-10 fertilizer.
Mulch:
Apply 4,000-5,000 Ib./oc. grain straw or equivalent cover of another suitable mulching material. Anchor
mulch by
tacking with asphalt, roving, or netting, or by primping with a mulch-onchoring tool. A disk with blades
set nearly
.straight con be used as o mulch -anchoring tool.
Maintenance:
Refertll{ze the fallowing April with 50 Ib/oc. nitrogen. Repeal, as growth requires. May be mowed only once
a year.
Where a neat appearance is desired, omit Sericea Lespedeza and mow as often as needed.

3. CONSTRUCT THE SEDIMENT BARRIER OF EXTRA STRENGTH SYNTHETIC FILTER
FABRIC. ENSURE THAT THE HEIGHT OF THE SEDIMENT FENCE DOES NOT EXCEED
24 INCHES ABOVE THE GROUND SURFACE.
4. CONSTRUCT THE FILTER FABRIC FROM A CONTINUOUS ROLL CUT TO THE LENGTH
OF THE BARRIER TO AVOID JOINTS. WHEN JOINTS ARE NECESSARY, SECURELY
FASTEN THE FILTER CLOTH ONLY AT A SUPPORT POST WITH 4 FT MiNIMUM
OVERLAP TO THE NEXT POST.
5. SYNTHETIC FILTER FABRIC SHALL BE FASTENED SECURELY TO EACH FENCE POST
WITH MIN. 50 LB. TENSILE STRENGTH WIRE OR ZIP TiES AT TOP, MID -SECTION AND
