Inspection Dale: 01/15/2019 Inspection Type : Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit: Other
Inspection Summary:
I see no reason for the mining permit modification request to allow for a discharge from the permitted boundary not to be an
allowable activity.
Therefore, my recommendation is to issue the NPDES SW permit to allow for mine dewatering.

Comment: I met with Joey Murphrey on site. Mr. Murphrey asked if an open ditch to allow gravity to drain
stored water from the small existing excavation down to the proposed settlement pond would be
allowable.
I mentioned the importance of adequately preparing/stabilizing his measures prior to making any
connection.
I stated that regardless if an open ditch or outlet diversion hose is utilized, that adequate
measures are to be implimented in order to maintain compliance with all of the permit
requirements.

19) Receiving waters:
What is the name of the body or bodies of water (creek, stream, river, lake, etc.) that the facility stormwater
and/or wastewater discharges will end up in? Wheat Swamp, from source to Contentnea Creek
To find the waterbody, please see the "MAPS" tab on http://portal.nedenr.org/webtwq for a map of NC
Surface Waterbody Classifications.
Receiving water classification(s) for the waters: C Sw, NSW
If the site will discharge to a separate storm sewer system, name the operator of the separate storm sewer
system (e.g. City of Raleigh municipal storm sewer). N/A
Discharge of wastewater to receiving waters classified as WS-II through WS-V, or SA, must be
approved by the Division of Water Resources (DWR) or Division of Marine Fisheries
(DMF). DEMLR cannot grant coverage under NCG020000 without that approval. Also be advised that
no new discharges of Wastewater are permitted in receiving waters classified as WS-1 or
freshwater ORW. Wastewater discharges to saltwater ORW will not be approved under General Permit
NCG02 but may be eligible for an individual permit.
20) Will this mine site discharge wastewater or stormwater to waters classified as High Quality Waters
(HQW), Primary Nursery Areas (PNA), Trout jr) waters, or a class with a symbol like "+" or "@" that

❑ Yes, HOW' ❑ Yes, includes "+° or
❑ Yes, Trout (Tr)
21) Will this mine site discharge wastewater or stormwater to waters classified as Shellfish (SA) waters?
® No
❑ Yes, SA`
'For questions 19-20, be advised that the NCG02 General Permit limits the discharge volume of total combined
wastewaters to 50 percent of the receiving water in -stream flow under 7Q 10 conditions in HOW waters (PNA and
SA waters are considered HQW by definition). You maybe required to contact USGS to obtain a 7Q10 flow.
22) Will this mine site discharge wastewater or stormwater to impaired waters, or to waters with an
approved "Total Maximum Daily Load" (TMDL)?
To find impaired waters, please see the "Impaired Waters" map on the "MAPS" tab on

® Yes, dewatering will be near wetlands or other waterbodies.
Wetlands must be CLEARLY DELINEATED on the site plan. Mine dewatering activities that
have the potential to drain wetlands or otherwise impact surface water or groundwater MUST develop and
implement a Pumping Operation and Monitoring (POM) Plan that has been approved by the
Department,
For sites that may drain wetlands — approval of a POM Plan may be required prior to coverage under
this permit. The POM Plan should be submitted to the appropriate Regional Office and in all cases must be
approved prior to operation.
The plan shall include, but is not limited to: (1) Groundwater monitoring strategies to demonstrate the effect of
pumping and to establish any pumping regime necessary to reduce impacts, and (2) Detailed plans to maintain
surrounding hydrology and respective monitoring to demonstrate compliance. See checklist at the end of the
application. Contact the Regional Office for questions specific to your mine.

k for any new or expanding water pollution control facility discharges in North Carolina. You may
attach additional sheets. List the types of wastewater this mine site will discharge:
2 Mine Dewatering
❑ Process Wastewater (such as washing or recycle system overflows, other mining activity wastewater)
a) What wastewaters were considered for this alternatives review? Z Dewatering ❑ Process WW
b) Connection to a Municipal or Regional Sewer Collection System:
i) Are there existing sewer lines within a one -mile radius? ..................................... ❑ Yes Z No
(1) If Yes, will the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) accept the wastewater? .... ❑ Yes ❑ No
(a) If No, please attach a letter documenting that the WWTP will not accept the wastewater.
(b) If Yes, is it feasible to connect to the WWTP? Why or why not?`
c) Closed -loop Recycle System (meets design requirements of 15A NCAC 2T .1000):
i) Are you already proposing a closed -loop recycle system (CLRS)? ......................... ❑ Yes ® No

(3) If No, is it otherwise feasible to build a CLRS at this site? Why or why not?' No. too expensive.
(4) What is the feasibility of building a CLRS compared to direct surface water discharge?`
It is not feasible. Direct surface discharge from the settling basin is the best option.
d) Surface or Subsurface Disposal System (e.g., spray irrigation):
i) Is a surface or subsurface disposal technologically feasible (possible)? ..................... ❑ Yes ❑ No
Why or Why not?` The permitted area is not large enought especially as the excavation grows.

approved prior to operation.
The plan shall include; but is not limited to. (1) Groundwater monitoring strategies to demonstrate the effect of
pumping and to establish any pumping regime necessary to reduce impacts, and (2) Detailed plans to maintain
surrounding hydrology and respective monitoring to demonstrate compliance. See checklist at the end of the
