Subject: RE: permit application NCG020762
Hi Cory,
We just received NCGO20762 (mining permit in Albemarle, Stanly Co.). I already talked to Mr. Nathan Russell, owner
and he was wondering about this permit since they apply for it on 12-28-09. He told that the mine area was sold to a
developer and I have to deal now with the home owner association since the subdivision was sold and there are
approximately 50 houses on site. He was kidding with me since it took us a long time to get back with him. At any rate
am going to see him next week. You can issue the permit since they have one year to develop a SPPP and provide
containment are etc.. This is an existing site.
Please let me know if you need any additional info.
Thanks,
Samar

Hope all is well in Raleigh. - I coriducted an inspection today at NCGO90023 — Engineered Polymer Solutions.
When I look in BIMS it notes the receiving outfall as a UT to the Deep River. This is incorrect. The outfall on
site discharges to a UT to Fourth Creek in the Yadkin -Pee Dee river basin.
I don't think I can change the outfall in BIMS. Can you make this change for this permit?
Thanks,

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 NCOOT 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 excluded 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 NCG020000:
• 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 existing mining sites that require an Authorization to Operate (A TO) wastewater treatment facilities:
This NOI is also an APPLICATION FOR an ATO for wastewater treatment facilities in place.
Construction, modification, or installation of anv new treatment components at an existing site 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 recce process wastewater (even if commingled
with stormwater) at mining sites will require an ATC prior to construction per 15A NCAC 2H .0138.
Please see the NCG020000 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 clay 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 2H .0138 & .0139.

'As per 15A NCAC 2H .0106
2Unless 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.

NCG020000 N.O.I.
Construction of wastewater treatment facilities subject to the ATC/ATO requirements in the NCG02 permit
at new or existing mining sites requires submission of three (3) sets of plans and specifications signed
and sealed by a Professional Engineer (P.E.) or qualified staff2 along with this application. A copy of the
design calculations should be included. Please see questions 18 & 19.
