The results of his review are detailed below. As we understand it: East Forsyth Quarry, NCG020115: You are requesting ROS for SDO 003 to be represented by SDO 005. North Quarry, NCG020082: You are requesting ROS for SDOs 004, 005, 006, and 007, to be represented by SDO 003. Based on the information and maps provided, as well as information gleaned from the December, 2010, compliance evaluation inspections, we hereby approve both of these requests. in accordance with 40 CFR §122.21(g)(7), you are authorized to sample SDO 005 as representative of SDO 003 at the East Forsyth Quarry, and SDO 003 as representative of SDOs 004, 005, 006, and 007, at the North Quarry. This approval is effective with the next sampling event. Please note that all other SDOs not expressly mentioned in this letter must still be sampled as required by the permit, i.e. SDOs 001, 002, and 004 for the East Forsyth Quarry. You are reminded that VMC is still required to conduct Qualitative Monitoring (QM) at all SDOs at both quarrys, regardless of ROS. Also, please remember that any actions you initiate in response to benchmark exceedences, as directed in the tiered response provisions of your permit, must address all drainage areas represented by the representative outfall, where appropriate.

Vulcan Materials Company Attn: Tim Knopf, Environmental Engineer ROS NCG020115 & NCG020082 March 28, 2011 Page 2 of 2 Please append this letter to your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SP3) or permits to document that ROS has been approved. If changes in drainage areas, structures, processes, storage practices, or other activities occur that significantly alter the basis of this approval, ROS may no longer be valid. You should either resume sampling at all SDOs, or reapply to this office for new ROS based on the updated information. Finally, although we have approved ROS for -both sites using this single letter, DWQ considers each site completely_ independent of the other. Therefore, occurrences or activities that occur at one site ;fgenerally do-NQT'affect the other. Ifa.you have any questions or comments concerning this letter, please contact Mr. Boone at (336) 771-4967 or at ron.boone@ncdenr.gov. Sincerely, W.

Sullins Governor Director July 2, 2010 Tim Knopf Permit Engineer, Southern Region Vulcan Materials Company PO Box 4239 Winston-Salem, NC 27115-4239 Subject Dear Mr. Knopf: Vulcan Construction Materials, LP General Permit NCG020000 Request for Sampling Extension Various Counties Dee Freeman Secretary We are writing in response to your request for an extension to collect the first semi-annual stormwater sample under this permit. In your letter of June 23, 2010, you requested an extension to August 3151 to comply with sampling requirements at several Vulcan facilities across the state. Your letter cited reasons to support the request that included: • Hard copies of the new NCG020000 permit not being received until mid -February, when the permit had become effective January 1, 2010; • Spotty weather patterns resulting in storm events during non -operating hours that prevent sample collection; and • The need for additional time to train Sampling Personnel on significant changes in the permit. One of the reasons for your request was the new provision that monthly monitoring will apply for the remainder of the permit term, should the mine ever fail to collect a sample during a scheduled monitoring period (footnote 1 of Table 1 in Part III). While considering your request, the Stormwater Permitting Unit (SPU) realized this provision may unfairly affect permittees who obtain coverage under NCGO20000 in the middle of a monitoring period. The SPU has written up guidance to address this situation and related conflicts in the permit text (see attachment). Recognizing there were possible conflicts with this provision that our guidance now addresses, DWQ will grant your request for an extension to collect a stormwater sample by August 31, 2010. However, we note that Vulcan Materials Company should have been prepared to comply with permit monitoring requirements prior to receiving hard copies of the permit in mid -February.

Vulcan Materials is a member of NCAA, and a representative of the company attended the initial meeting. • The provision that triggers monthly monitoring for failure"to sample came out of discussions with,industry representatives during these meetings and was incorporated into the final permit as a result. • The definition of representative storm event also changed as a result of these discussions with NCAA to increase sampling opportunities during operating hours. A representative storm event in NCG020000 now only requires a period of 48 hours of no rain prior to the event. • An advance copy of the final permit was forwarded to the Executive Director of the NCAA on December 29, 2009 and subsequently distributed to NCAA members. The final NCG020000 permit was available to all permittees on the DWQ website when it became effective in January 2010. • Stormwater sampling requirements are not new with this renewal, even though sampling is now semi- annual (instead of annual in the previous permit). Vulcan should have already been familiar with the stormwater sampling requirements. If you have any questions regarding this letter, please contact Bethany Georgoulias at (919) $07-6372.
