Inspection Summary:
On 6/27/2018, Jason Gill and Melissa Joyner with DEMLR met with Scott Byrd, Plant Manager, at Oldcastle Stone
Products/Bonsal Mining offices to conduct a follow-up compliance inspection for the purpose of reviewing the components of
the facility's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) that was unable to be located during DEMLR's inital compliance
inspection on 4/11/2018. The facility had produced a SPPP, but it was identified as being specific to another mine operated
by the same owner in close proximity to Richardson Mine. This SPPP did have some information specific to Richardson
Mine, such as a site map, qualitative monitoring forms, and laboratory analysis results for its quantitative monitoring
requirement. The Richardson Mine site map was missing drainage flow direction arrows and a label for the one outfall at the
mine. Mr. Byrd indicated to the inspectors that he could have the map updated to include the missing information within a
couple of weeks. Even though there was no SPPP on site, the facility was conducting monthly qualitative monitoring of the
outfall and required analytical monitoring in accordance with permit specifications. Mr. Byrd said that he was going to
reduce the monthly qualitative monitoring to semi-annually in accordance with permit specifications. The facility had not
been completing and submitting Discharge Monitoring Reports for Richardson Mine, but the inspectors discussed this
requirement with Mr. Byrd. It was brought to Mr. Byrd's attention that a separate SPPP specific to Richardson Mine should
be maintained on site.

Dear: Mr. Timothy L. LaBounty
On April 11, 2018, you and your team conducted an onsite inspection and the following issues
were noted:
a. No Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) developed.
b. Qualitative Monitoring had not been conducted or recorded in accordance with permit
requirement.
c. Analytical Monitoring had not been conducted or recorded in accordance with permit
requirement.
The reason for this is that the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) binder / records
had been misplaced during the restructuring of the office area.
We have located the records and the plan of Action now is to maintain these records in the
Safety Representatives office (Mr. Billy Thompson).
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me Scott.byrd @

Inspection Summary:
On April 11, 2018, an inspection was conducted at the Richardson Mine by Melissa Joyner, Jason Gill and Tim LaBounty to
determine compliance with the General Permit NCG020000. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan which had been
available for review during the inspection on June 9, 2016 had been misplaced and was not available for review during this
inspection and not provided within 30 days from the date of this inspection. No Qualitative Monitoring has been conducted.
Analytical Monitoring was noted for December 2016 and for March 2018. No benchmark values were exceeded during those
monitoring periods. No monitoring had been performed in the Period One of 2016 or during 2017. Per the requirements of
General Permit NCG020000, both Analytical and Qualitative Monitoring need to occur semi-annually. A Notice of Deficiency
was sent previously to the facility on June 16, 2016 for conducting Analytical and Qualitative Monitoring annually instead of
semi-annually.
Outfall #1, the only stormwater outfall at this mine was visually inspected. It was actively discharging with no issues. Gravel
haul road entrances had not been installed for the mine from public roads and there is a potential for off -site sediment.

Inspection Summary:
An inspection was conducted at the Richardson Mine on 6/9/2016 by Melissa Joyner and Tim LaBounty. The Stormwater
Pollution Prevention Plan was reviewed and appeared to contain the required components. The site map needs to be
modified to contain the required information as described in General Permit NCG020000.
Since the permit was renewed on October 1, 2015, Analytical and Qualitative Monitoring records were reviewed for the
previous permit cycle. It was noted that both types of monitoring were being conducted once per year instead of biannually
as required by General Permit NCG020000. No stormwater discharge exceedances were observed of the benchmark
values. The Annual Summary Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMR's) are required to be submitted annually to the Central
Office. Outfall #1, the only outfall at this mine, was inspected and appeared in good condition.

Inspection Date: 02/16/2010 Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit: Routine
Inspection Summary:
Due to the effective date of the current NCG020000 general permit being January 1, 2010, this inspection was conducted
to evaluate compliance with the conditions of the previous permit that was effective from January 19, 2005 through
December 31, 2009. Requirements of the previous permit included the development of a Stormwater BMP Plan,
Analytical and Qualitative Monitoring for stormwater only discharges, and Analytical Monitoring for mine dewatering and
process wastewater discharges. Inspection conducted with Mr. Ron Barnhill, General Manager, Mr. Mitchell Ratliff,
Supervisor, and Mr. T. F. Boone, Superintendent. Oldcastle Stone Products owns and operates three mining facilities,
one in Richmond County (Woodmont Mine) and two in Anson County (Federal/Richardson Mine & Lilesville Mine) that are
in close proximity to each other. A Stormwater BMP Plan was developed that encompasses these three mining facilities
and was reviewed at the Oldcastle office located on Hwy 74 East in front of the Lilesville Mine. The BMP Plan appeared to
contain all required components. Analytical Monitoring records for each of the three mines were also reviewed. Based on
laboratory reports, testing results for all parameters showed no exceedances of Cut-off Concentrations that were
applicable under the previous permit. Qualitative Monitoring records were not available at the time of inspection, but
copies were received via fax on February 17, 2010 as requested.
Specific to the Federal/Richardson Mine, activities consist solely of material excavation and transport to the Lilesville Mine
for processing. No mine dewatering or process wastewater discharges occur so monitoring has been performed for
stormwater discharges only.
