RE: Permit No. NCO080446
Clear Creek Quarry
Mecklenburg County
Dear Mr. Parker:
This is to advise your office that we have investigated an apparent concern regarding our
permitted discharges. Previously we advised Mecklenburg County and your office about of
construction runoff. The current situation may be influenced again by construction runoff, but
we are certain it is being affected by beaver activities upstream of our discharge point and
possibly other off site conditions.
Operationally, we are moving our quarry water sump to the south side of the pit. This will
require us to install additional piping that has been ordered. We anticipate completing this work
within the next 60 days, which will allow us to utilize an existing basin, thereby increasing the
treatment of our discharge.
Because of the historical concerns and the changes or improvements we propose to make, we
wanted to keep you informed in this matter. Should you have questions or need farther
information in the above, please contact me.
Sincerely.,
Mike Poplin
Environmental Engineer

Re: Construction uction near ;-lean Creek Quarry
Dear Mr.Knox:
Due to continuing concerns, I want to document our earlier conversation, Last Summer, after'
observing risible sedimentation and turbid stream flow, our Superintendent traced the source to a
construction project upstream and adjacent to our property (area map enclosed). This was
reported to you by phone on ,August 16 and we talked again the following week. You confirmed
your inspection of the source and indicated you would fallow -up. We appreciate your efforts and
know very well the importance of and requirements for erosion and sediment control which is also
addressed i our mining permit.
I again spoke with our Superintendent last week who indicated the turbid flaw was continuing
from upstrearn sources. We are not contending damages, but are concerned that because this
flow commingles with our permitted water discharge, it may cause our periodic samples to
exceed State permit limitations. Please consider this as you monitor the upstream project(s) in the
future.
If we note increased sedimentation or noncompliant samples, we will contact you. Likewise, if
you have questions or if we may assist you, please feel free to contact one or visit our site. Thank
you very much: for your cooperation.
Sincerely, ,
Mike Poplin
