Complete the enclosed form and submit it to the address on the form. ➢ If you are not sure what type of system your property has, contact Larry Frost in the NC DENR Asheville Regional Office at (828) 296-4500. That person [or other staff members] can help you determine if you should renew your CoC. ➢ If this site has been shut down and no further dredging will occur, contact me at the address or phone number listed below to request rescission of the CoC. Please verify that the provided information is correct, or make corrections on the attached form. Complete the additional questions, then sign and date the form.

The Compliance Evaluation Inspection was conducted by the Asheville Regional Office. The facility is in non-compliance with permit NCG520082 due to a record keeping discepancy. The Division of Water Resources (DWR) records indicate that an application was received for this location on 3/06/2006 but was returned on 9/09/2006. To correct this situation DWR requests a new application be submitted (attached) for this location which will correct the compliance status. DWR appreciates your understanding to correct this situation and obtain a valid permit for this site. Enclosed is a copy of the NCG52000 permit conditions. Please continue to maintain and operate the site as per permit requirements placing close attention to bank stabilization efforts- and turbidity conditions during operations. We did not observe warning signs outlined in the permit. Please review conditions and install signage if applicable. Please refer to the enclosed inspection report for observations and comments.

Site was last dipped in the fall.We discussed watching bank stability issues and to continue efforts to ensure that stream banks are stabilized. We also discussed notifying the Corps of Engineers and DWR in the future to check on possible 404/401 permitting for placing any material below the ordinary high water mark for bank stabilization efforts. There appears to have been a mistake made by DWR regarding the last submitted application. DWR has records that an application was submitted on 3/06/2006 but was returned on 9/09/2006. To correct this situation DWR is requesting another application be submitted(attached)to correct this discrepancy.

To date, he has not resubmitted the application for the Southard Pit. If Hoffman is dredging/discharging, he's doing it without a permit. Just FYI. Charles H.Weaver Environmental Specialist N.C.
