Please take notice that this certificate of coverage is not transferable except after notice to the Division of Water Quality. The Division of Water Quality may require modification or revocation and reissuance of the certificate of coverage. Please be aware that mine dewatering at your site has the potential to impact adjacent wetlands. The specific requirements for mine dewatering at facilities near wetlands can be found in Part III, Section E of your permit. This permit is being issued because an approved Operation and Monitoring Plan. Discharging mine dewatering wastewater must be done according to the approved Plan or your site will be subject to enforcement action. For questions on the Operation and Monitoring Plan for your facility contact the Washington Regional Office. Contact Thom Edgerton at the Washington Regional Office at (252) 948-3955 for more information.

Please check with Cory Larsen, as I am in the process of approving the O&M Plan for Darrell Davenport Sand Mine in Washington County. I was pulling out the related pages of the DLR Mine Review to forward to you and see that the NCG020779 application package that Cory submitted on 8/23/10 for RO comments includes the Mine application, the NCG02 application and the O&M Plan. If that is available, that would save me a lot of scanning. The O&M Plan does not include calculations, but is a plan that if all permit requirements are compliant, the plan conceivably will protect Waters of the State. I hope that this helps and let me know if you need additional information.

The requested permit area is located on a flat, sandy 25 acre parcel and will not present any problems regarding runoff to adjacent areas. The purpose of the excavation will be to serve as a source of sand for resale, as well as providing a pond for recreational use by Mr. Davenports family. The excavated pond will also be available for use as a water source by the local volunteer fire department. There is an existing 2.8-acre pond adjacent to the proposed excavation that Mr. Davenport intends to use as a settling pond when dewatering his new excavation. This pond was built in 2006 by Barnhill Inc. and has been completed and reclaimed. Mr. Davenport will include this pond inside the permit area but the pond itself will remain undisturbed by excavation. There is also an existing 12.6-acre pond located 400 feet northwest of the proposed excavation built in 2006 by Barnhill Inc. which has been completed and reclaimed. This pond will remain outside of the permit area and will not be disturbed. Mr. Davenport intends to dewater his new excavation as necessary to achieve full depth excavation and to allow proper construction of graded side slopes. He intends to only dewater for short periods of time for only long enough to remove 100 — 150 loads of sand at a time and stockpile it, and not dewater again until the stockpiled sand has been sold and removed, estimated to be every 30 — 45 days. Mr. Davenport is applying for a sand mine dewatering permit from the Division of Water Quality at this time, in conjunction with a mining permit from the Division of Land Resources. During dewatering, water will be removed slowly by a pump running at idle speed and will take several days. The water will be pumped into the adjacent settling pond where it will overflow to a field ditch leading 1.6 miles by irrigation canals to the Scuppernong River. The Scuppernong River then drains 16 miles later into the Albemarle Sound at Columbia. During periods of dewatering, water flow from the settling pond will be monitored daily in order to prevent any possible flooding of lands adjacent to the irrigation canals downstream. All irrigation canals downstream from the excavation area range in size from 16 — 25 feet wide. They are in good condition, and have been well maintained. There have been no problems with flooding during dewatering operations at previous excavations by Barnhill using the same canals. Water quality from overflow from the settling pond will be monitored quarterly for pH onsite and for suspended solids and turbidity at a State certified laboratory. Rainfall data will also be collected onsite monthly and after rain events. A11_ monitoring will occur as per instruction and direction from NCD f--NR. — 2 — August 12, 2010 The excavation area is located geographically 1500 feet from the nearest dwelling and 1800 feet from the nearest public highway, and is accessible only by a private access road. Distance from highways and dwellings along with full growth wooded areas on all sides of the excavation area provide adequate screening of the mining operation, and the site is barely visible from the closest highway. Access to the permit area is limited by private property, and private road access. There will be a minimum 25ft wide unexcavated buffer on all sides of the permit area. Upon receipt of the approved permits from NCDFNR Land Quality and Water Quality, Mr. Davenport plans to excavate the mine to an average depth of 20 feet below natural ground level, and will include construction of proper cut slopes on all sides of the excavated area, as required in the permit. Reclamation of the mine area will include grading, leveling, and grassing of all affected areas. Mr. Davenport plans to seed all sloped areas with ground cover to provide good erosion control. An adjacent landowners have been contacted and have been made aware of the proposed training and dewatering operation. The Washington County Manager has been contacted regarding this application and a land entry agreement has been obtained. The trine area will be well marked with warning and keep out signs to prevent inadvertent public access. Mr. Davenport does hereby request approval for this mining and dewatering permit application, and asks that it be expedited as soon as possible. Mr. Davenport appreciates your consideration of this permit application and looks forward working with NCDLNR in coming years.

Description and Operation of the Darrell Davenport Sand Mine & Dewatering Process: Darrell Davenport Sand Mine is a proposed new 14.3 acre excavation (Pond A) located 1 mile west of Creswell, NC on flat sandy land currently under cultivation with soybeans. There is an existing 12.6 acre excavated pond located 400 feet northwest of the proposed new excavation, and an existing 2.8 acre excavated pond (840ft x 150ft) located 30 feet east of the proposed new excavation, both dug by Barnhill Inc. in 2006 during construction of nearby US 64 four -lane road. Mr. Davenport intends to use the completed 2.8 acre excavation (Pond B) as a sediment pond for dewatering Pond A during excavation. It will be necessary to dewater Pond A as it is being excavated to allow the excavating equipment to enter the excavated area and safely and efficiently remove the sand from the pond bottom. This will allow for full depth excavation and proper reclamation of the edges of Pond A. It is the intention of Mr. Davenport to only dewater the excavation as needed, which will not entail full-time dewatering. Dewatering will occur roughly every 30 to 45 days which will allow excavating equipment to remove approximately 150 loads up to ground level where it will be stockpiled for later use. When the stockpile is depleted from usage, the excavation area will again be dewatered, and another quantity of sand will be excavated. It is the intention of Mr. Davenport to dewater Pond A as it is being excavated, into Pond B. Water in Pond A will be pumped by a 6in gasoline -powered transfer pump operating at idle speed. There will be an overflow pipe with a water height control device located on the southeast corner of Pond B . Upon completion of excavation, Darrell Davenport Sand Mine will be a 14.3 acre sand pit that will have an average 20ft and maximum 25ft depth. The water -height control structure for overflow located on the southeast corner of Pond B will let clear water overflow from Pond B as necessary, and flow by buried 15in culvert pipe into an existing Eft wide field ditch located approximately 25ft from the edge of the sediment pond. Water in this ditch will flow 1.6 miles by field ditch and other irrigation canals to Scuppernong River, and then 16 miles east and north into Albemarle Sound. The water -height control structure will consist of a 24in vertical galvanized metal pipe with a removable cleanout on top, a Sin inlet pipe located on one side, and a 15in outlet pipe on the other that leads to the existing drainage ditch by connected 15in galvanized sectional pipe. The structure will be located just below the top lip of the Pond B and will control the water level in Pond B so that the pond will not overflow uncontrollably onto adjacent lands and fields. The overflow water from Pond B will exit the pipe through an outlet stabilized with a 20ft long riprap-lined apron in the ditch. There will be no chemicals or flocculants added to the water in the Pond B to accelerate sedimentation. Time and distance will allow all sedimentation to occur to acceptable levels before the overflow water reaches the ditch and then the waters of the State. The water control structure will be located approximately 700ft from the inlet of water from Pond A. Pond B will be 2.8 acres in size and will have enough surface area to allow efficient sedimentation to occur. There will be a minimum 2ft tall berm around the perimeter of the excavation and the sediment pond to prevent offsite stormwater from entering Pond B and damaging sedimentation rates. There are no wetlands in close proximity to this excavation. The nearest wetlands are 1 mile distant, and the nearest dwellings 1500 feet from the excavation, and there have been no noticeable drops in groundwater of the area due to dewatering of the previous nearby excavations. This area is supplied with drinking water from the Washington County Water System, and the excavation is located on level ground surrounded by fields and woodlands. Maintaining the Water Height Control Structure, Settlement Pond, Ditches, and Irrigation System Inspections and maintenance are required to obtain the intended function of safely dewatering the sand mine, and to maintain the life of any adjacent wetlands or waters of the State. Items to inspect and maintain during the 10 year life of the mine dewatering are: • Inspect the water control structure regularly, especially following heavy rains and runoff, or during periods of operation of the structure. • Remove accumulated debris from the control structure inlet pipe. • Inspect the structure for excessive settlement or seepage. • Inspect all components of the structure, including appurtenances, and repair or replace any damaged items as needed. • Inspect embankments, berms and appurtenant structures, and repair as needed. + Repair any damage to vegetated areas or berms with compacted earth fill, reshaping, sodding, reseeding and mulching as needed. • Check frequently for burrowing animals. When found, remove the burrowing animals, replace embankment materials and reseed. • Inspect all ditches regularly leading from the excavation area for stormwater erosion, especially after heavy rains, repair ditch banks as necessary with compacted earth, remove all accumulated debris in ditch to allow free flow of water. Inspect riprap outlet stabilization structures in ditches regularly, replace dislodged rock as necessary. • Promptly repair all leaks in delivery facilities by replacing valves, fittings, gaskets, and worn or damaged parts. • Maintain all screens, filters, valves, timers and other electrical and mechanical equipment in good operating condition, following manufacturer's recommendations Monitoring the Process and Effects of Dewatering Analytical and qualitative monitoring of mine dewatering wastewater will be in accordance with the NCG020000 permit, as follows: • Monitoring of the Ponds A & B of the Darrell Davenport Sand Mine will be accomplished to identify and report abnormal conditions between scheduled inspections. irregularities will be reported to the sand mine operator immediately. • Special inspections will be conducted immediately following severe storms, initial filling of the Pond B, vandalism, and other significant events. • Quarterly inspection of dewatering wastewater will be accomplished along with a general inspection of the facility. • Rain gauge data will be collected by monitoring a rain gauge monthly and after each rain event. • Outflow of dewatering wastewater will be monitored quarterly at the overflow exit stabilization structure for pH, settleable solids, turbidity, and total flow. Samples will be collected and tested onsite for pH, and the remainder will be tested for the remaining parameters by a North Carolina certified lab. Records Elliott Consulting will maintain the following records in a permanent file at the Elliott Consulting office at 622 Rocky Hock Creek Road, Edenton, NC 27932. a record of all significant actions taken; as -built drawings; permits; and related material. Copies of all inspection reports shall be provided to NCDWQ on a regular basis. BMP Conditions • The permittee will utilize best management practices to ensure that dewatering Darrell Davenport Sand Mine will not degrade or negatively impact any wetlands or waters of the State. • The permittee shall obtain authorization from the Director of the DWQ prior to utilizing any chemical flocculants at Darrell Davenport Sand Mine.

Operator will excavate area in approximately 150ft wide cuts starting in the northeast corner and proceeding south down the length of the total proposed excavation area. 3. Excavation area will have topsoil removed down to 2.5 feet below natural ground level and stockpiled. 4. Operator will construct 6ft wide x 2ft tall sand berm around current excavation area to prevent offsite erosion. 5. Initially, sand will be dug from excavation area (Pond A) by excavator down to average 10 feet below existing natural ground level, and stockpiled for later removal from premises. 6. To complete full depth excavation and slope construction of the Pond A edges, the proposed additional and existing excavation will have to -be dewatered. 7. Operator will establish a dewatering pump on the east side of Pond A approx. 250ft from the north end. 8. Operator will dewater Pond A into the north end of an existing, reclaimed 840ft x 150ft (2.9 acre) pond (Pond B) located approximately 30ft cast of Pond A. 9. Operator will construct 6ft wide x 2ft tall sand berm around the perimeter of Pond B to prevent offsite erosion or sedimentation. I0. Operator will establish an overflow pipe approximately 700ft south of the dewatering pump outlet, near the southeast corner of Pond B. Pond B will act to settle out any sediment pumped out of Pond A, and the overflow pipe will allow fresh clear water to overflow to a ditch leading to Scuppernong River and Albemarle Sound. I t . To dewater the Pond A, water will be pumped slowly from the pond to Pond B. Pump will run several days continuously at idle speed until water level at the current excavation in Pond A has decreased to a level that will accommodate further excavation. Overflow water will flow southward through a culvert from Pond B 25ft to an existing field drainage ditch on the east side of the permit area which will drain southward 1.6 miles through drainage canals to Scuppernong River and then 16 miles to Albemarle Sound. Pond A will be dewatered as needed by the owner during the permit period in order to achieve full depth excavation. 12. After Pond A has been fully excavated the operator will have the slopes graded per reclamation requirements. Pond B was previously reclaimed with properly graded cut slopes, which will remain so. Perimeter berm around Pond B will be removed and replaced with a low 1 ft x 8ft berm 13. Minimum 2:1 graded slopes established around edges of pond area below groundwater level. 14. Minimum 3:1 graded slopes established around edges of pond area above groundwater level. 15. After excavation and edge sloping is completed, a low 1 ft x 8ft berm will be established around the entire perimeter of Pond A, with outside slope graded down to natural ground level. 16. All former stockpile areas outside of the proposed excavation area will be leveled and graded to natural ground level; any trash or debris cleaned up and removed. 17. Internal haul roads and processing areas of main permit area will be leveled and graded to natural ground level, to a returned to natural field state. A I Oft wide field path will remain around the entire perimeter of both ponds for owner access. 18. Access roads & field paths to Meadow Lane will be graded, leveled, and returned to pre- existing state. 19. Entire affected area inside of main permit area will be fertilized and seeded with groundcover and will be returned to its pre-existing field state. 20. At end of permit period, affected area returns to pre-existing, natural state. .6- APPLICATION FOR A MINING PERMIT 2. Describe specific erosion control measures to be installed prior to land disturbing activities and during mining to prevent offsite sedimentation (include specific plans for sediment and erosion control for mine excavation(s), waste piles, access/mine roads and process areas), and give a detailed sequence of installation and schedule for maintenance of the measures. Locate and label all sediment and erosion control measures on the mine map(s) and provide typical cross-sections/construction details of each measure. Engineering designs and calculations are required to justify the adequacy of any proposed measures. Permit area is located in center of large flat sandy area (25 acres, no elevation changes); no offsite erosion or sedimentation expected. Sand berm (6'W x TH) will be established around immediate edge of excavation to prevent erosion of excavation by surrounding area run-off, and will be maintained for the life of the excavation work, until establishment of final low berm at end of permit during reclamation 3. a. Will the operation involve washing the material mined, recycling process water, or other waste water handling? Yes ❑ No ®. If yes, briefly describe all such processes including any chemicals to be used. Not applicable. b. Will the operation involve discharging fresh or waste water from the mine or plant as a point discharge to the waters of the State? Yes ® No ❑. Ifyes, briefly describe the nature of the discharge and locate all proposed discharge points (along with their method of stabilization) on your mine rnap(s). 1. To achieve dewatering and recovery of sediment, the operator plans to dewater the proposed excavation area (Pond A) as it is excavated. Pond A will be dewatered into Pond B with water height overflow control. 2. Pond B will act to settle out any sediment pumped from Pond A. 3. There will be an overflow pipe with a water -height control structure for overflow located on the southeast corner of Pond B which will let clear water overflow from sediment Pond B as necessary. The water will flow through a buried 15in culvert pipe into an existing 8ft wide field ditch located 25 feet from the edge of the sediment Pond B. After leaving the sediment pond and initial field ditch, water will flow approximately 1.6 miles by irrigation canals to Scuppernong River leading 16 miles to Albemarle Sound. 4. The water control structure will consist of a 24in vertical galvanized metal pipe with a removable cleanout on top, a 6in inlet pipe located on one side, and a 15in outlet pipe on the other that leads to the existing drainage ditch by connected 15in galvanized sectional pipe. The structure will be located just below the top lip of Pond B and will control the water level in Pond B so that the pond will not overflow uncontrollably onto adjacent Iands & fields.
