Hey Dana: I'm still working on this — like I had mentioned to you, we don't always get a copy of the permit from
Raleigh. I dug through the files and the only permit I could find dates back to 2008. 1 put a plea in for help with
someone up in Raleigh for a copy for a copy of the expired permit that ran from 2010-2014 so bear with me.

Hi Jo,
The batch renewals are not working property in BIMS, and several of those permits should in fact be renewed effective
2/2/2015. I'm not at work, so I can't check this particular one (we don't renew it if there are outstanding fees), but I can
tell you that our most recent action on NCG02 was to reissue it unchanged on Feb 2, 2015 until June 1, 2015, when we'll
make changes to that general permit. None of those permittees was mailed anything new -- they just needed to go to
our website and download the new cover page to the General permit with new effective dates. Info. about that is on our
homepage.
However, for a copy of the last renewed COC and cover letter from 2010, go here:
http: //portal, ncdenr.oro/group/Irlstormwater-0p-renewals
That's an internal website, so you'll have to log into the portal to access it. There is a PDF of the COCs and issuance
letters from 2010 (and renewals for other years, too). You have to search the full PDF document for that particular
permit's letter and COC, but its in there. I found it on pages 1217-1220 (three page letter + the COC). I attached it
here for you.
I hope that helps.

Hey Bethany: I feel so lost with who to contact for what once the NPDES Stormwater went into DEMLR..haha. Anyway,
can you point me in the right direction if you are not the one to help me? I've had a request for a copy of a permit:
NCG020738. According to BIMS, it expired 12/31/2014 and it doesn't appear to be in the process of renewal. The last
permit copy we ever received dates back to 2008; a copy of the permit that ran from 2010 and expired in 2014 is fine —
just don't know how to get a copy of it.
Any help you an offer would be great — thanks!

Dear Mr. Seay:
Thank you for your letter dated January 14, 2011 expressing your concerns regarding
the, C Rit in Fender County.
A field inspection of the site was conducted on February 15, 2011 by Mr. James Trent of
the Wilmington Regional Office and myself. The site has not been satisfactorily reclaimed at
this time.
According to Mr. Billy Whitehead, mining activities ceased at this site on October 15,
2009. Therefore, all reclamation must be completed by October 15, 2011. Mr. and Mrs.
Whitehead are well aware of this deadline. In the event that reclamation is not completed by
the deadline, enforcement may be taken against these individuals. Enforcement actions may
well include bond forfeiture proceeding and civil penalty assessments.
Any violations dealing with wetlands and wetland restoration are better addressed by
individuals from the Division of Water Quality. You may want to contact Mr. Rick Shiver at
[phone] to discuss the wetland issues.
The access road appears to be within the permit boundary limits. This Mining Act does
not address right-of-ways and property ownership issues. These are better addressed through
civil actions.
Again, thank you for your letter. If you have any additional questions, please contact
me at [phone].
Sincerely, I

Re: Mining Permit No: 71-42 for operation of a sand mine in Pender County, NC
Permit granted to Janet G. Whitehead issued October 11, 2006
Land Owner: Carlene Padgett
Dear Ms. Boyer
I represent Carlene Padgett, a landowner of a tract of land in Pender County NC who leased a
portion of her land off the Shaw Highway to Janet G. Whitehead for the purpose of Billy
Whitehead, her husband, mining sand. I have enclosed a copy of the lease. Ms Whitehead,
acting through her husband, William Whitehead, applied for and obtained the above referenced
permit back in 2006. 1 have enclosed the maps from the State's file showing the property and
mine in question.
The Padgetts have in no way been involved in the mining activities carried on by the
Whiteheads. However, the Padgetts (Carlene's husband is Wayne Padgett) have been concerned
for some time now that the mine has been inactive for over two years and the Whiteheads have
failed to take any reclaii;atio'n action. It appears that Whitehead has abandoned the project for
more than two years now. In addition, they are concerned that the Whiteheads have dug a
second illegal pit or pond outside the permit area which neither the State nor the Padgett's
authorized and which may have disturbed protected wetlands. This other pit or pond was dug on
Tract 2 as shown on the enclosed map referenced above.
Padgett's lease with Whitehead was for a five year tern beginning August 15, 2005. Although
paragraph 5 of the Lease grants Whitehead the right to extend the lease for an additional five
years "at Tenants option", Whitehead never -exercised this option, never contacted Padgett about
exercising the option to extend and has never negotiated or even attempted to negotiate any new
Lease price for such extension. The Padgett's want to make it clear that although the Lease has
ended, they authorize Whitehead to come onto the property in question for the purpose of
complying with reclamation requirements under the permit and to take such other action as may
be necessary to correct wetland violations and restore/remediate the area wrongfully taken by
Whitehead for the other pit or pond on Tract 2.

With regard to the permit, Padgett asserts the mine has been inactive since on or about or
November/December of 2008. Whitehead last paid Padgett for sand on March 9, 2009 (reference
here is to four loads of sand mined in November 2008 as noted on the enclosed hand written
statement).
Pursuant to the Reclamation Plan provision of the mining permit, reclamation shall be conducted
simultaneously with mining to the extent feasible. In any event, reclamation shall be initiated as
soon as feasible after completion or termination of mining or any mine segment under the permit.
Final reclamation including re -vegetation, shall be completed within two years of completion or
termination of mining. This has not happened. Padgett takes the position that mining was
completed more than two years ago as evidenced by inactivity of Whitehead on the site (they live
across the street from the permit site and thus are in a position to know when mining was or was
not taking place) and as further evidenced by the last payment received by Whitehead for sand
removed noting the four loads of sand removed November 2008. According the Mr. and Ms
Padgett, no reclamation efforts appear to have been made by Whitehead.
Padgett requests the State's help as follows:
1. Revocation, suspension or modification of the mining permit.
2. Enforcement of the continuing terms of the permit regarding all the land reclamation
requirements, including that area where Whitehead mined or dug outside the permit area.
We note there is an $11,500.00 Reclamation bond for this purpose.
3. Help from the NC Division of Mines or other state agencies in requiring Whitehead to
remediate potential wetland violations for the other pit or pond Whitehead dug outside
the permit area. Whitehead dug this other pit or pond outside the permitted area to
dewater the pit inside the permitted area as documented by Mr. Trent James. In addition,
the Padgetts believe that Whitehead took and removed sand from this other pit. Runoff
from this other pit adversely affected the Padgett property in question and other adjoining
property to the North.
4. Restoration of the road destroyed by Whitehead during mining. Whitehead relocated the
existing road on Padgett property southwardly to an adjoining landowner's property,
tearing up and ditching the existing road in the process.
I respectfully request a meeting with State officials to discuss this matter further. Please let me
know when this can happen.
Sincerely yours,
J. . eay, J

Dear Permittee:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
Subject: NPDES Stormwater Permit Coverage Renewal
Whitehead Sand Pit M-Pit #71-41
COC Number NCG020738
Pender County
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under stormwater General Permit NCG020000
the Division of Water Quality (DWO) is forwarding herewith the reissued stormwater General Permit. This permit
is reissued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of
Agreement between the state of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, dated October 15,
2007 (or as subsequently amended).
The following information is included with your permit package:
• A new Certificate of Coverage
• A copy of stormwater General Permit NCG020000
• A copy of a Technical Bulletin for the General Permit
• Two copies of the Tier 2 / Exceedence Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Form for Stormwater
• One copy each of the Annual Summary DMR Forms for Stormwater and Wastewater
• Two copies of the Limit Violation DMR Form for Wastewater
• Two copies of the Qualitative Monitoring Report Form
The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater and wastewater, and it specifies your obligations with
respect to discharge controls, management, monitoring, and record keeping. Please review the new permit to
familiarize yourself with all the changes in the reissued permit. If your Certificate of Coverage (COC) restricts
authorization to discharge Stormwater only (or other limited terms) based on your original application, or
subsequent modifications to your COC, you must continue to meet these requirements or contact the Stormwater
Permitting Unit to request a modification of this renewal COC.
The more significant changes in the General Permit since your last Certificate of Coverage include the following:
Part If:
• Section B — Language referencing PAMS has been changed. Flocculants may now be used if evaluated
by the Division and administered in accordance with maximum application doses and other requirements.
Part III:
• Section A —The permit now requires a Stormwater Pollution and Prevention Plan (SPPP) tailored to the
mining industry, in lieu of a Stormwater BMP Plan.
• Section A - Inactive mines may be inspected on a reduced schedule: at least once per month and after
0.5" (or more) of rain. To qualify, inactive mines must possess an "Inactive Renewal' from DLR or certify
to DWQ the site has been stabilized. The permittee must notify the DWQ Regional Office of inactive
status. Discharges from inactive mines must still be monitored on the same schedule as active mines.

Permit Reissuance — Permit Number NCGO20738
February 11, 2010
Page 2
• Section B — Revised provisions require that stormwater discharges be sampled twice per year (instead of
annually), and that the sampling results be compared to new benchmark values. (The previous cut-off
concentrations have been removed.)
• Section B — Revised provisions require the permittee to execute Tier One, Tier Two & Tier Three
response actions, based on the first benchmark exceedence (Tier One) and the second consecutive
benchmark exceedence (Tier Two). Tier Two requires that the permittee institute monthly monitoring
(reported to the appropriate Regional Offices) instead of twice -per -year monitoring. Monthly monitoring
shall be done until three consecutive monitoring events show no benchmark exceedences.
• Section B — This part contains a new provision that four exceedences of any benchmark will trigger
increased DWO involvement in the permittee's stormwater management and control actions. DWO may
direct the permittee to apply for an individual permit, institute specific monitoring, or may direct the
implementation or installation of specific stormwater control measures.
• Section B — The definition of "Representative Storm Event" (RSE) now allows 48 hours (instead of 72
hours) of little or no precipitation to precede an RSE.
• Section B — Stormwater discharges from a basin designed to contain the 10-year storm must now be
monitored.
• Sections B & C — Failure to monitor according to permit terms triggers monthly monitoring for the
remainder of the permit.
• Section C — Analytical monitoring for Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) has replaced the Oil & Grease
parameter in the previous permit.
• Section D — Qualitative monitoring must now be conducted during the same representative storm event
as the analytical monitoring.

National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System application for coverage under General Permit
NCG020000:
STORMWATER DISCHARGES associated with activities classified as:
SIC (Standard Industrial Classification) Code • 14XX Mineral Mining Industry (except as specified below)
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 2xcluded 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 NCGO20000:
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 xe /sting 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, modTI-gation, or installation of any new treatment components at an existing s/ta 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 process wastewater (even if commingled
with stormwater) at mining sites will require an ATC prior to construction per 15A NCAC 211 .0138.
Please see the NCG0211000 General Permit for details about which treatment facilities require an
ATC (summarized in Table 1 at the end of this form). For example, an ATC is required for treatment
of mine dewatering discharge from clav pits and non -closed -loop wastewater recycle systems. 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 214.0138 & .0139.
'Asper 15A NCAC 2H .0106 Page 1 of 7
°Unless treatment facilities are designed, constructed, and put into operation by employees internal to the company who are qualified to
perform such work for their respective companies in accordance with General Statutes, 89C-25 (7), plans and specifications must be signed
and sealed by a P.E.
