N Background: The NPDES General Stormwater Permit for Mining (NCG0200) addresses impacts of mine dewatering wastewater pumping and discharge on surrounding areas, including potential irripacts to wetlands. The NPDES'Permit requires that the mine have a site specific plan for, 1) groundwater monitoring strategies to demonstrate the effect of pumping and establish any pumping regime necessary to reduce potential impacts to surrounding areas, and 2) detailed plans to maintain surrounding hydrology and respective monitoring to demonstrate compliance. In order to develop these plans, certain site -specific parameters must be understood. First, any wetlands that may be potentially impacted must be delineated according to US Army Corps of Engineers criteria. Second, an evaluation of potential impacts of groundwater levels must be conducted. This should include an examination of soil types, permeability, and various zones of groundwater within the zone of influence. Third, based on the groundwater data, an assessment of potential impacts to the wetlands by mine dewatering should be estimated. Finally, based on the potential impact, a plan should be developed to limit as well as monitor the potential impacts to the wetlands. The Operation and Monitoring (O&M) Plan is developed prior to any discharge of mine dewatering wastewater. Site description: The Dupree Pit is a sand mine located In Pit County NC, near the Falkland Community. The property consists of 235.74 acres located adjacent to the Tar River, and situated south of the intersection of NC Highway 222 and Old River Road. The site is mostly wooded, with some cleared fields for agriculture. The sand being mined is an alluvial deposit associated with the Tar River. The areas to be mined are all "upland" areas with the site being designed to maintain a minimum 50-foot undisturbed buffer between any land disturbance and any wetlands. The natural groundwater levels within the mining area are over 8 feet from the surface. The sand deposit being mined is an alluvial deposit consisting of a coarsening -downward sequence of sediments, ranging from a silty sand to a coarse sand and gravel, Wetland description: The wetlands around the Dupree Sand Pit were delineated in May 2012 by Brown Environmental Group, This delineation was performed according to US Army Corps of Engineers standards. The wetlands are a "Riverine Wetland" and primarily consist of Portsmount Loam and Bibb Complex soil types. Hydrophytic vegetation is prevalent, and hydric soil and wetland hydrology are present, according to the USACE criteria. Depth to water table was within 8 inches from the surface at the time of the delineation. The Wetland Determination Data Form and the Jurisdictional Determination Form are attached. The wetland limits (boundary) are clearly delineated on the enclosed site map as the "dotted" pattern. Pumping and mine dewatering: As described in the original NPDES application and on the site plan, it is expected that mine dewatering discharge will not be required in this operation in the initial stages. Any water that collects within the mining areas will be utilized in dust suppression and in the plant processes. For this reason, the pump for this site has not yet been obtained. However, it is anticipated that the pump that will be used will be a 6 or 8-inch pump, with a capacity of 1,250 — 2,800 gpm, The pump will be operated during normal operating hours of the mine. Impact of dewatering on adjacent wetlands: Based on the soil borings and investigations, the soils within the wetlands and the soils in the mining area are very different. A dense and virtually impermeable clay layer underlies the hydric soils within the wetlands, while soils in the sand mining area consists of very permeable sand. The impermeable clay in the wetlands holds the near - surface water in a concave "perched" condition, thereby supporting the wetland vegetation and hydrology. This observation is supported by the remarkable difference in the existing groundwater levels in the two areas. The "perched" water table in the wetland areas is within 6 inches from the surface, while groundwater levels in the mining areas are over 8 feet. Therefore, there is no connection between the groundwater in the sand mine and the near -surface groundwater that provides hydration to the wetlands. The hydration of the wetlands is accomplished by surface water from rainwater runoff and occasional flooding of the Tar River, and not from the deeper groundwater found in the sand mine. Therefore, the mine dewatering will have no impact on adjacent wetlands. Monitoring: Based on the observed disconnection between the water within the mining area and the surrounding wetlands, it is anticipated that any potential dewatering at this mine will have no impact on the adjacent wetlands. In order to confirm that there are no impact to the wetlands, a monitoring plan should be established as a precaution. 1. Four shallow monitoring wells will be placed within the wetland areas surrounding the mining areas. These wells will be placed no deeper than 24 inches, and sealed to prevent surface runoff from entering. These wells will be measured on a monthly basis to observe any fluctuations in water levels. In addition, one additional well will be placed several hundred feet from the mining area as a "control', to observe any natural fluctuations due to drought or other natural causes. These wells will be installed as soon as possible so that background information can be collected prior to commencement of actual Mine Dewatering Discharges. If any significant drop in water levels are observed within the monitoring wells adjacent to the mining areas, and is not seen in the control well, then dewatering discharges will be temporarily stopped while further study is done to determine the cause of the drop. 2, Mine dewatering wastewater discharges should be quantitatively and qualitatively monitored according to requirements of the NPDES permit. See the "Monitoring Requirements" in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. 3. The Discharge Point should be examined weekly to make sure that it is functioning as designed and that no sediment has discharged into the wetland. 4. A written record shall be kept of pumping times and rates. A record of rainfall shall also be kept in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.

The site is mostly wooded, with some cleared fields for agriculture. The sand being mined is an alluvial deposit associated with the Tar River. The areas to be mined are all "upland" areas with the site being designed to maintain a minimum 50-foot undisturbed buffer between -any land disturbance and any wetlands. The natural groundwater levels within the mining area are over 8 feet from the surface. The sand deposit being mined is an alluvial deposit consisting of a coarsening -downward sequence of sediments, ranging from a silty sand to a coarse sand and gravel. Wetland description: The wetlands around the Dupree Sand Pit were delineated in May 2012 by Brown Environmental Group. This delineation was performed according to US Army Corps of Engineers standards. The wetlands are a "Riverine Wetland" and primarily consist of Portsmount Loam and Bibb Complex soil types. Hydrophytic vegetation is prevalent, and hydric soil and wetland hydrology are present, according to the USACE criteria. Depth to water table was within 6 inches from the surface at the time of the delineation. The Wetland Determination Data Form and the Jurisdictional Determination Form are attached. The wetland limits (boundary) are clearly delineated on the enclosed site map as the "dotted" pattern. Pumping and mine dewatering: As described in the original NPDES application and on the site plan, it is expected that mine dewatering discharge will not be required in this operation in the initial stages. Any water that collects within the mining areas will be utilized in dust suppression and in the plant processes. For this reason, the pump for this site has not yet been obtained. However, it is anticipated that the pump that will be used will be a 6 or 8-inch pump, with a capacity of 1,250 — 2,800 gpm, The pump will be operated during normal operating hours of the mine. Impact of dewatering on adjacent wetlands: Based on the soil borings and investigations, the soils within the wetlands and the soils in the mining area are very different. A dense and virtually impermeable clay layer underlies the hydric soils within the wetlands, while soils in the sand mining area consists of very permeable sand. The impermeable clay in the wetlands holds the near - surface water in a concave "perched" condition, thereby supporting the wetland vegetation and hydrology. This observation is supported by the remarkable difference in the existing groundwater levels in the two areas. The "perched" water table in the wetland areas is within 6 inches from the surface, while groundwater levels in the mining areas are over 8 feet. Therefore, there is no connection between the groundwater in the sand mine and the near -surface groundwater that provides hydration to the wetlands. The hydration of the wetlands is accomplished by surface water from rainwater runoff and occasional flooding of the Tar River, and not from the deeper groundwater found in the sand mine. Therefore, the mine dewatering will have no impact on adjacent wetlands. Monitoring: Based on the observed disconnection between the water within the mining area and the surrounding wetlands, it is anticipated that any potential dewatering at this mine will have no impact on the adjacent wetlands. In order to confirm that there are no impact to the wetlands, a monitoring plan should be established as a precaution. 1. Four shallow monitoring wells will be placed within the wetland areas surrounding the mining areas. These wells will be placed no deeper than 24 inches, and sealed to prevent surface runoff from entering. These wells will be measured on a monthly basis to observe any fluctuations in water levels. In addition, one additional well will be placed several hundred feet from the mining area as a "control", to observe any natural fluctuations due to drought or other natural causes. These wells will be installed as soon as possible so that background information can be collected prior to commencement of actual Mine Dewatering Discharges. If any significant drop in water levels are observed within the monitoring wells adjacent to the mining areas, and is not seen in the control well, then dewatering discharges will be temporarily stopped while further study is done to determine the cause of the drop. ter., 2, Mine dewatering wastewater discharges should be quantitatively and qualitatively monitored according to requirements of the NPDES permit. See the "Monitoring Requirements" in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. 3. The Discharge Point should be examined weekly to make sure that it is functioning as designed and that no sediment has discharged into the wetland. 4. A written record shall be kept of pumping times and rates. A record of rainfall shall also be kept in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.

October 11, 2012 Mr. Brian Lowther, PE NCDENR, DWQ Stormwater Permitting Unit 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699 Subject: Dupree Sand Pit, Pit County, American Materials Company, LLC Review of NPDES General Permit NCG020831 N.O.I. Dear Mr. Lowther, am writing in response to your e-mail of September 28, 2012 to me regarding the above referenced permit review. I will address each item in your email in the same order for clarity. 1. Please note that the term "woodsland" actually refers to currently wooded areas on the site and not to the wetlands. The wetlands are shown on the map and are designated by the dotted pattern as explained on the symbol key at the top of the page. The wetlands limits are also shown on page two in the mining details sheet. 2. Please find enclosed the final Jurisdictional Determination from the US Army Corps of Engineers. The surveyed wetland boundary shown on the mine plan is the actual delineation as approved by the US Army Corps of Engineers. 3. The discharge point is shown on the mine map, along with the associated sediment and erosion control for the outlet structure. As described in the original application and on the site plan, it is expected that mine dewatering discharge will not be required in this operation in the initial stages. Any water that collects within the mining areas will be utilized in dust suppression and in the plant processes. For this reason, the pump for this site has not yet been obtained. However, it is anticipated that the pump that will be used will be a 6 or 8-inch pump, with a capacity of 1,250 — 2,800 gpm. The pump will be operated during normal operating hours of the mine. As required in the NPDES permit, any mine dewatering wastewater will be monitored for pH, turbidity, settleable solids, and total suspended solids. Discharged water is allowed to settle within the pit, then pass through the basin as shown on the mine plan. These measures will allow the limits in the permit to be met. A detail of this basin is attached. P.O. Box 4.29. GARNER, NC 27529 (91 9)779-00 1 7 1=Ax: (91 9)779-7227 OFFICES AT 10 1 WEST MAIN STREET, GARNER. NC page two Mr. Brian Lowther 4. A draft Operation and Monitoring Plan has been submitted to Mr. Thom Edgerton for his review, and we are in communication with him in this matter. 5. There is no "recycle system" for the process area. As shown on the mine plan, all runoff from the plant and stockpile area flows by gravity back to the mining area and is held there without discharging. Water will occasionally be pumped from the mining area as needed for dust suppression or plant processes. 6. There will be no stormwater discharges from this site. The mining area will hold all stormwater as described above. Thank you for your review of this permit application. Please let me know if you need any additional information. Sincerely, James C.

I have done a preliminary review some additional information I need for you. The following information is needed to continue the stormwater review: The wetlands need to be labeled as wetlands instead of woodsiand on plan sheet 1. 2. Please provide a copy of the US Army Corp wetland delineation done on the site. 3. Please show on the plans the locations of the dewatering discharges and provide information on how the limits in the permit will be met. Also, provide the proposed flowrate of the discharges. 4. As Thom Edgerton mention in his previous email, please provide a O&M agreement to him. 5, The site looks to include a recycle system for the process area. Please contact APS (Aquifer Protection Section) on whether a permit is needed. http:/lportal,ncdenr.org/web/wq/ap5/gwpro 6. This project is adjacent to protected buffers. If there are any stormwater discharges they must be routed through a level spreader to enter the buffers. Please note that this request for additional information is in response to a preliminary review. The requested information should be received by this Office prior to October 31, 2012, or the application will be returned as incomplete. The return of a project will necessitate resubmittal of all required items. including the application fee. If you need additional time to submit the information, please mail or fax your request for a time extension to the Division at the address and fax number at the bottom of this letter. The request must indicate the date by which you expect to submit the required information.

October 11, 2012 Mr. Brian Lowther, PE NCDENR, DWQ Stormwater Permitting Unit 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699 Subject: Dupree Sand Pit, Pit County, American Materials Company, LLC Review of NPDES General Permit NCG020831 N.O.I. Dear Mr. Lowther, I am writing in response to your e-mail of September 28, 2012 to me regarding the above referenced permit review. I will address each item in your email in the same order for clarity, 1. Please note that the term "woodsland" actually refers to currently wooded areas on the site and not to the wetlands. The wetlands are shown on the map and are designated by the dotted pattern as explained on the symbol key at the top of the page. The wetlands limits are also shown on page two in the mining details sheet. 2. Please find enclosed the final Jurisdictional Determination from the US Army Corps of Engineers. The surveyed wetland boundary shown on the mine plan is the actual delineation as approved by the US Army Corps of Engineers. 3. The discharge point is shown on the mine map, along with the associated sediment and erosion control for the outlet structure. As described in the original application and on the site plan, it is expected that mine dewatering discharge will not be required in this operation in the initial stages, Any water that collects within the mining areas will be utilized in dust suppression and in the plant processes. For this reason, the pump for this site has not yet been obtained. However, it is anticipated that the pump that will be used will be a 6 or 8-inch pump, with a capacity of 1,250 — 2,800 gpm. The pump will be operated during normal operating hours of the mine. As required in the NPDES permit, any mine dewatering wastewater will be monitored for pH, turbidity, settleable solids, and total suspended solids_ Discharged water is allowed to settle within the pit, then pass through the basin as shown on the mine plan. These measures will allow the limits in the permit to be met. A detail of this basin is attached. P.O. Box 429, GARNER, NC 27529 (91 9)i79-0017 FAX: (91 9)779-7227 OFFICES AT 1 D 1 WE5T MAIN S REEl'. GARNER. NC page two Mr. Brian Lowther 4. A draft Operation and Monitoring Plan has been submitted to Mr. Thom Edgerton for his review, and we are in communication with him in this matter: 5. There is no "recycle system" for the process area. As shown on the mine plan, all runoff from the plant and stockpile area flows by gravity back to the mining area and is held there without discharging. Water will occasionally be pumped from the ruining area as needed for dust suppression or plant processes. 6. There will be no stormwater discharges from this site. The mining area will hold all stormwater as described above. Thank you for your review of this permit application. Please let me know if you need any additional information. Sincerely, James C.

I am assisting American Materials Co with the permitting of their new Dupree Pit, in Pitt County. As you may recall there are currently ongoing reviews for the Mining Permit by DLR and the NPDES General permit for mining by DWQ. You have mentioned that an 0&M Plan is needed because of the wetlands adjacent to the mining areas. I have written a Rough Draft of an O&M Plan, which I have attached to this e-mail. Please do not consider this a final submittal, but simply a first draft for your review. Obviously, a site map showing the wetlands, mining areas, discharge point, and monitoring wells wo Ida company a final submittal. I would appreciate your comments on this plan, so we can move this process along, lS ► �` T L 1� 11� � thank you, C J ¢U Vpr o OJ,�s F-k-() James Izzell /o/IC) jIZ.- K I, e� 2 S"c "_ 0 qIq -to-( I Pumping Operation and Monitoring Plan Dupree Pit Certificate of Coverage NCG020*** American Materials Company LLC NC Hwy 222 at Old River Road October 2, 2012 DRAFT VERSION For Review Only dor DRAFT VERSION For Review Only This PUMPING OPERATION AND MONITORING PLAN was prepared in accordance with the requirements specified in the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit for Mining (NCG020), and specifically as applied in the Certificate of Coverage for this location: Dupree Pit Certificate of Coverage NCG020*** American Materials Company LLC NC Hwy 222 at Old River Road Falkland, Pitt County, NC Lat:35.6961 Long:-77.4806 - . . .,I October 2; 2012 This plan is designed to satisfy the requirements of Part 111, Section E of the NPDES General Permit NCG0200. Background: The NPDES General Stormwater Permit for Mining (NCG0200) addresses impacts of mine dewatering wastewater pumping and discharge on surrounding areas, including potential impacts to wetlands. The NPDES Permit requires that the mine have a site specific plan for, 1) groundwater monitoring strategies to demonstrate the effect of pumping and establish any pumping regime necessary to reduce potential impacts to surrounding areas, and 2) detailed plans to maintain surrounding hydrology and respective monitoring to demonstrate compliance. In order to develop these plans, certain site -specific parameters must be understood. First, any wetlands that may be potentially impacted must be delineated according to US Army Corps of Engineers criteria. Second, an evaluation of potential impacts of groundwater levels must be conducted. This should include an examination of soil types, permeability, and various zones of groundwater within the zone of influence. Third, based on the groundwater data, an assessment of potential impacts to the wetlands by mine dewatering should be estimated.. Finally, based on the potential impact, a plan should be developed to limit as well as monitor the potential impacts to the wetlands. The Operation and Monitoring (O&M) Plan is developed prior to any discharge of mine dewatering wastewater. Site description: The Dupree Pit is a sand mine located_ In Pit County NC, near the Falkland Community. The property consists of 235.74 acres located adjacent to the Tar River, and situated south of the intersection of NC Highway 222 and Old River Road. The site is mostly wooded, with some cleared fields for agriculture. The sand being mined is an alluvial deposit associated with the Tar River. The areas to be mined are all "upland" areas with the site being designed to°maintain=a= minimum: 50-foot,undisturbed,bufferqi;' between : any- landdisturbance.and:any:wetlands. The:natural;groundwateulevels.within the_mining-are.-Pare�ouer,8=fee�from-the.surface. The sand deposit being mined is an alluvial deposit consisting of a coarsening -downward sequence of sediments, ranging from a silty sand to a coarse sand and gravel. Wetland description: The wetlands around the Dupree Sand Pit were delineated in May 2012 by Brown Environmental Group. 'This delineation was performed according to US Army Corps of Engineers standards. The wetlands are a "Riverine Wetland" and primarily consist of Portsmount Loam and Bibb Complex soil types. Hydrophytic vegetation is prevalent, and hydric soil and wetland hydrology are present, according to the USACE criteria. Depth,to,water table wa's'within-6`inches`frdmrthe-surfacesat,the time°of-the ,delineation. The Wetland Determination Data Form and the Jurisdictional Determination Form are attached. The wetland limits (boundary) are clearly delineated on the enclosed site map as the "dotted" pattern. Pumping and mine dewatering: As described in the original NPDBS application and on the site plan, it is expected that mine dewatering discharge will not be required in this operation in the initial stages. Any water that collects within the mining areas will be utilized in dust suppression and in the plant processes. For this reason, the pump for this site has not yet been obtained. However, it is anticipated that the pump that will be used will be a 6 or 8-inch pump, with a capacity of 1,250 — 2,800 gpm. The pump will be operated during normal operating hours of the mine. Impact of dewatering on adjacent wetlands: Based on the soil borings and investigations, the soils within the wetlands and the soils in the mining area are very different. A dense and virtually impermeable clay layer underlies the hydric soils within the wetlands, while soils in the sand mining area consists of very permeable sand. The impermeable clay in the wetlands holds the near - surface water in a concave "perched" condition, thereby supporting the wetland vegetation and hydrology. This observation is supported by the remarkable difference in the existing groundwater levels in the two areas. The "perched" water table in the wetland areas is within 6 inches from the surface, while groundwater levels in the mining areas are over 8 feet. Therefore, there is no connection between the groundwater in the sand mine and the near -surface groundwater that provides hydration to the wetlands. The hydration of the wetlands is accomplished by surface water from rainwater runoff and occasional flooding of the Tar River, and not from the deeper_ groundwater found in the sand mine, Therefore; the=mine:dewatering:will.Kavie-no impact'on adjacent wetlands. Monitoring: Based on the observed disconnection between the water within the mining area and the surrounding wetlands, it is anticipated that any potential dewatering at this mine will have no impact on the adjacent wetlands. In order to confirm that there are no impact to the wetlands, a monitoring plan should be established as a precaution. 1. Four shallow:monitoring wells:will-be= placed -within -the, wetland'areas:surrounding:they mining -areas. These wells will be placed no deeper than 24 inches, and sealed to prevent surface runoff from entering. These,wells.wilI.be.measured on a monthly basis; ,,to observe: any -flu ctuations-in -water,levels. Imaddition, one.additional well -will be -placed several, hundred-Jeet,from-the •mining,areaas-a,"control", to-observe-any-natural-o •fluctuations�due�to=drought"or-other-natural•causes. These wells will be installed as soon as possible so that background information can be collected prior to commencement of actual Mine Dewatering Discharges. If any significant drop in water levels are observed within the monitoring wells adjacent to the mining areas, and is not seen in the control well, then dewatering discharges will be temporarily stopped while further study is done to determine the cause of the drop. I 2. Mine dewatering wastewater discharges should be quantitatively and qualitatively monitored according to requirements of the NPDES permit. See the "Monitoring Requirements" in -the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.. 3. The Discharge Point should be examined weekly to make sure that it is functioning as designed and that no sediment has discharged into the wetland. 4. A written record shall be kept of pumping times and rates. A record of rainfall shall also be kept in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. a _ I PORTIONS OF TH15 PROPERTY ARE LOCATED IN FLOOD LONF5 At!, AEPW AND X i A5 SHOWN ON F.I.R.M. 3703724740J, DATED JANUARY 2, 2004.

I will try to answer your questions from your earlier e-mail: I forwarded the JD Letter from the Army Corps to you via e-mail a week or two ago in my response to the NPDES permit questions from the Central Office. The wetlands as approved by the Corps JD were surveyed and are shown on the map provided with the NOI (page 1). Note that the wetlands are designated by the "dotted" pattern. The wetlands are also shown on the details page (page 2). Discussing the project with the office 401 staff on Friday, Roberto Scheller stated that all JD's have an approved JD map whi present the Corps appr Val. (¢ec eve 41 ir1ltv-,)6DcP Q 4-oBk4� qh o1r;'&4•Vn lr,a-tQaL.1 t pb�� 6 (moo , S, nqq" My e-mail with the 0&M Plan draft referred to a site map showing well locations (etc). I will send t at to you V; mail today. All of the other details are already on the site maps. I did not see that the discharge settlement pond and discharge location were identified. I question, with so much area, why the settlement basin is set at 30' by 60'? Are other BMP's proposed? It is my understanding that no 404/401 Certifications are required because there are no impacts to wetlands in this project. All mining limits are outside of the required 50-foot undisturbed buffer around the wetlands. My question is related to the stream crossing improvements, as well as any other haul road improvements or impacts within wetlands (I would expect that fill in wetland would require a 404 review/comment). We have had extensive contact with the Pitt County Planning over the past year, as the County has reviewed and passed the zoning and Conditional Use Permit several weeks ago. All of their requirements have been met, and they have given full approval. The Notes that you asked about "B through E" were placed on the map at the request of the County, and they are satisfied with each concern. Please note that our "Page 1" is actually the same map that was approved by Pitt County for'the "Conditional Use Permit". In an effort to preserve the conditions required by the County, we incorporated this plan into the overall mining plan. We did not begin any work on the mining permit or NPDES permit until we had completely obtained all approvals from Pitt County. Please present or summarize Pitt County Planning approval(s). Once you have received the map showing the well locations, please review all of the information, and let me know if you have any further questions.

I am assisting American Materials Co with the permitting of their new Dupree Pit, in Pitt County. As you may recall there are currently ongoing reviews for the Mining Permit by DLR and the NPDES General permit for mining by DWQ.

Please do not consider this a final submittal, but simply a first draft for your review. Obviously, a site map showing the wetlands, mining areas, discharge point, and monitoring wells would accompany a final submittal.

As the excavation reaches the final mining limits, the slopes will be graded to a 3:1 slope. All disturbed areas that remain above water will be graded to a 3:1 slope or flatter and seeded according to schedule to prevent erosion. Perimeter berms will be removed and graded. The plant and processing area will also be graded and seeded to prevent erosion. Any haul roads will be stabilized to prevent erosion and left for access to the property. '44r1tP�No5 p !f J 7 Z Gravel Construction Entrances will be established as shown on mine plan. Grading will begin in "Initial Mining Area" adjacent to the "Plant and Process Area". This initial excavation will serve as sediment and erosion control for establishment of the plant and processing area. All runoff from the plant and processing area will be directed into this excavation and retained without discharge. After the processing plant is established, water from this excavation will be utilized as recycled wash water and for dust suppression. Mining will then progress to the mining area south of the plant and processing area. These two mining areas will serve as sediment and erosion control for the plant and processing area for the life of the mine. Mining will then progress to the other designated mining areas as the need arises. In each area, the initial excavation will serve as the sediment and erosion control structure. Since the topography is generally flat -lying along the perimeter of the mining areas, silt fence will be utilized to prevent sediment from leaving the mining area during initial clearing. Stormwater will be retained within the mining area, and either used in processing ! dust suppression or discharged at the designated point.
