Joh-nston, Jr. Environmental Chemist II NC DNRCD Water Quality Section 8025 North Point Blvd., Suite 100 Winston Salem, NC 27106 Dear Mr. Johnston; Enclosed are two prints of the proposed discharge permit information for Olde Beau Golf Course. It is proposed to outfall from the Clubhouse Area to the Wastewater Treatment Plant 800 feet to the west along the secondary entrance leading from U.S*. Hwy. 21 to the Clubhouse between the 9th. and 10th. Fairways. The plant is to be con- cealed in a wooded area to the north of the road. From the Plant Site the treated effluent will be pumped by Force (lain to the west along the before cited road to a flowing stream, an unnamed tributary of Laurel Branch, on the southside of the road 400 feet east of U.S. ##21. At this point the effluent will be aerated by some means to increase the oxygen content to.a satisfactory level and discharged to the unnamed tributary. Th:i,�; tributary flows under the secondary entrance road and along th -Northeast side of U.S. 21, joining with another -tributary, cCossing U.S'. 21'and.flowing to its' confluence with Laurel Branch a short distance later. Laurel Branch is a Class "C" Trout Strearn requiring dual train treatment, standby power and declorination.

Flow Description i The flow will originate from the Golf Club's Clubhouse. The clubhouse will have approximately 300 seats with 10 showers and bathrooms. Daily flow: 300 seats x 40 gal/seat = 12,000 GPD 10 showers x 250 gal/shower = 2500 GPD 10 bathrooms x 250 gal/bathroom = 2500 GPD TOTAL 17,000 GPD The flow will be all domestic and grease traps will be installed at the kitchen outlet. The NPDES application is 20,000 GPD. 2. Treatment Options Two types of treatment were studied for the discharge. The first option was a traditional septic tank with absorption fields. The area calculated for the septic field (with an application rate of 0.4 gpd/ft2) and repair area is approximately 3 acres. The system would require several septic tanks and dosing pumps. This size of system and land required is not feasible for this site. There is also a reasonable estimate that impervious strata is located between 1 foot and 5 foot from the ground surface. Boring logs from the Golf Club's water tank indicate that bedrock in the area of the clubhouse is fairly close to the natural grade. This could possibly lead to the absorption fields being unapprovable. The second option was an extended aeration sewage treatment plant. The plant would be economically feasible and would not require a tremendous amount of land. The effluent would meet all N.C. DEHNR requirements. The High Meadows Motel and Restaurant, located approximately 1000 feet upstream from the proposed discharge point, has its own treatment "plant and has been operating successfully for over 15 years. The proposed treatment plant would require less maintenance and less problems over the long term than.the septic system. Page 2. 'r Engineering Proposal Olde Beau Golf Club November 11 1989 3. Proposed Treatment Narrative The sewage treatment plant will be a dual -train extended aeration system with two (2) 10,000 GPD package plants. The system will be composed of a flow splitter box and bar screen at the influent, aeration chamber, clarifier chamber, chlorination chamber, and dechlorination tank. The mechanical equipment will consist of aeration blowers, chlorination and dechlorination mixing drums, and various piping. The effluent will be pumped to the discharge point with a duplex pump station. A%gas generator will be used for a power outage. Detailed plans and.specifications will be submitted with the Authorization to Construct application. A schematic of the treatment plant is enclosed. 4. Location Map A general location map of the treatment system is enclosed. 5. Site Location Map A scaled site location map of the treatment system is enclosed. 6. Discharge Study A special discharge study is not proposed at this time. 7. Environmental Statement Mr. Billy Satterfield, the owner, has constructed several developments in the past 30 years. Mr. Satterfield has never applied for a NPDES Permit, but he will ensure that all NC DEHNR regulations are met for the effluent limits. There have been erosion control problems at the project this year, but they have been brought under control. The monthly rain- fall in Alleghany County has almost doubled for the months the project has been under construction. This would under- standably create more problems for the project. It is proposed that the 'latest inspection reports on the project be obtained from the NC DEHNR Winston-Salem Regional Office by your office, if they are required. (I am not the site engineer; Mr. Eugene Dysart, P.E. is.) The' f inancial• qualifications of Mr. Satterfield, from the attached Financial Statement, appear to be excellent. It is proposed that' i.f *more' i,iforniati.oi1 is needed for the financial qualifications, the NC DEHNR should contact the owner.at the Vhone number on the NPDES application.

Af J afiwapp[y��li +- i 0 v DIVISION OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT August 8, 1990 To: Don Safrit From: Carla Sanderson Through: Trevor Clements �1 L Subject: Chronology of Old Beau Golf Course Proposed NDPES Permit Per your request for a chronological list of Technical Support Activities for the Old Beau project, I offer the following information: Technical Support received a WLA request on November 11, 1989 for the proposed discharge of 100% domestic wasteflow (0.04 MGD) into an unnamed tributary to Laurel Branch. Laurel Branch (classified C-TR) is part of the New River Basin and located in Alleghany County. The following list provides the events after review of the WLA request: 1. WLA Review Information from USGS was obtained to determine if the receiving stream: had positive flow. USGS estimates predicted the 7Q10 flow equal to 0.09 cfs. The staff report submitted from the region relayed new information regarding the topography and current conditions of the stream. The region reported that the site had been so damaged by sedimentation that it is now a dry ditch. This made USGS information invalid since the estimates are based on the pre -developed drainage areas at the proposed discharge location and flow data from nearby streams. Also as part of the review, the modeler looked at the engineering proposal and noted that adequate information concerning alternatives to discharge was not submitted with the application. 2. Permit Request was recommended for denial by Technical Support (February 2, 1990) based on inadequacies in the engineering report. Only two options were reviewed (spray irrigation was not reviewed). In addition to an incomplete engineering report, information was provided (by the Office of General Council) to WQ concerning the applicant's past com- pliance history with land quality and erosions control permits. (summary of compliance history is provided in the attached draft memo to Jane Murray -never sent) 3. Instead of denying the permit, per the Division's right to consider the history of this applicant (15 NCAC 2H.0105 (c) (7)), Technical Support was directed to hold the WLA until the Judge's decision was made con- cerning violation of the Sediment Pollution Control Act. (see attached April 5, 1990 draft letter to Jane Murray - never sent). 4. On April 5, 1990 a letter was sent to Jane Murray (attached) regarding information on the proposed permit. The letter indicated a very incom- plete engineering report had been submitted which needed to be improved and that additional clarification of several technical concerns was required before a WLA analysis could be completed. These concerns included: the low flow estimate (7Q10) equal to zero, the proposed dis- charge location above a small pond with potential problems such as eutrophication or deoxygenation, and finally that the proposed discharge may not be able to meet the temperature standards required for desig- nated trout streams. The environmental compliance background check (mentioned above) was not made a major issue at this time. 5. April 11,1990 letter sent to Billy Satterfield (attached) from Steve Tedder stating DEM concerns (i.e. stream flow, temperature, & pond) and the information required (i.e. response to concerns and an engineering report) before the WLA would be evaluated for further review of the NPDES permit. 6. May 23, 1990 meeting with Steve Mauney, Dale Overcash, and Carla Sanderson from DEM and Charles Davis and Patrick Warren from Charles H. Davis Jr. Engineering and Planning Consultants. The meeting was brought together specifically for DEM and the consultants to discuss the engi- neering proposal to be resubmitted and apply to the discharge. The engineers brought their reply to the April 11, 1990 letter with the alternatives to discharge evaluations (attached letter to Steve Tedder dated May 22, 1990). Below I have summarized our review of their response: a. The information provided did not provide any technical support for demonstrating positive stream flow at the proposed outfall. Fur- thermore, they admitted that streamflow in the area is affected by development. We recommend taking up their suggestion of obtaining real flow data through standard Division procedures for field studies for estimating 7Q10 flow statistics. b. Information was provided to suggest that temperature might not be a problem. c. Clarification was made that no pond exists between the proposed site and Laurel Branch. The engineers also requested a decrease in proposed wasteflow from 0.04 MGD to 0.02 MGD because an original plan to include a hotel was no longer being considered. The meeting focused primarily on the alterna- tives to discharge and sub -surface being the most feasible alternative. (Spray irrigation was not further discussed in length.) A consensus was reached that the engineer should pursue sub -surface disposal if the land available was appropriate. 7. Permits and Engineering staff submitted a letter to Mr. Satterfield (dated June 20, 1990) stating our intention to deny the NPDES permit due to the sub -surface disposal alternative and give Mr. Satterfield a period of 60 days to respond (attached). 8. On August 2nd, information was sent to Technical Support in regard to the July 31 meeting with Mr. Satterfield and Secretary Coby. The pack- age did not contain any indication of plans for sub -surface disposal, but a request for an additional proposed discharge location to be evalu- ated as well as the original location. Technical Support has addressed the location to the UT to Laurel Branch with the fact that there is no flow in the stream (as stated above). The new location for discharge is located below the man-made lakes on Laurel Branch (this location is upstream of the original location on the UT). The original stream course has been altered below the Lakes (again, USGS information will not apply). No information has been provided concerning release flow from the lakes and therefore assumptions cannot be made to base a low flow estimate. The Lake water is used to spray irrigate the golf course, therefore during low flows one would expect the stream to be completely dry. Given the concern regarding frozen ground for spray irrigation systems, it appears that a seasonal spray system might be the most appropriate. During summer months (peak golf course use period) the wastewater could be sprayed on the course in place of their freshwater irrigation. Dur- ing the winter when Laurel Branch was flowing and golf course irrigation was not necessary, wastewater could be discharged directly with minimal impact to the receiving water. Technical Support recommends that this option be pursued in preparing an adequate engineering report. 8/1/90 MEMORANDUM: TO: TrevorMSRO/Don FROM: Jule Shanklin SUBJECT: Olde Beau Golf Club AKA Billy Satterfield (NC0078158) Attached is applicant's response to various solicited and unsolicited questions regarding the subject project submitted yesterday in Mr. Satterfield's meeting with Secretary Coby.

DAVIS, JR., P.E. PRESIDENT J U L. In response to your letter of June 20, 1990 on the referenced project, the following comments are submitted for review: 1. Attached is a copy of the site evaluation report from Appalachian District Health Department and the Soil Report from a registered Soil Scientist. Both reports state that the proposed ground -absorption system is not feasible at the study area of. the project. The ADHD report also states the stream discharge system would be "the only logical and environmentally sound method of waste disposal" for the project. - We are presently testing more areas for sub -surface disposal, but do not feel a large area or several small areas will be found to be suitable. The cost effectiveness of the ground absorption system will be reduced as a result of marginal and limited areas in which to install the system. This will come about as a result of field configuration and increased pumping, as well as a probable need for additional equipment and construction materials, the likely need for a T&G Block Panel System for reduced field area, and more sophisticated grease removal equipment for the kitchen. The initial cost estimates were calculated before the soil report indicated poor soil conditions. The revised dolt estimate is as follows: 20,000 gallon liquid volume septic tank $ 30, 000. 00 20, 000 .g•allon pump tank 30, 000. 00 Effluent pumps 5,000.00 11,100 L.

A copy of the permit is attached. 2. The questionnaire concerning previous environmental compliance will be submitted to your office by Mr. Satterfield. I was not the site engineer and was not involved in the erosion control plan. In conclusion, I still feel that the wastewater discharge into the stream is the most environmentally safe -alternative and even with, operating costs would be the most cost effective. There is one overriding consideration in this whole matter; the inconsistent soil conditions make the failure of extensive (large) septic fields a reasonable certainty (this applies to repair areas also), then what do we do?

That this action was initiated by Complaint filed on December 12, 1988, which was thereafter served on defendant, which filed Answer on January 11, 1989; 2. That in paragraph 1 of said Complaint, it is alleged that "the plaintiff is the sovereign- state of North Carolina," and, that defendant in its Answer admitted that allegation; 3. That the North Carolina Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources [hereinafter DEHNR], formerly Department of Natural Resources and Community Development, is also a named party plaintiff herein, and that in plaintiffs' Complaint, in paragraph 1, it is alleged that DEHNR is an agency of the State established pursuant to N.C.G.S. §14B-274 et. sea., which allegation defendant admitted in its Answer [this Court notes the correct statutory -citation is actually N.C.G.S. §143B-275 et. i s'?�i�; 5UL 3C 1990 4. That the plaintiffs' Complaint alleged certain instances of off -site erosion and sedimentation from defendant's property, as well as damage and potential damages to water courses of the State, including the Mitchell River and the Laurel Branch; 5. That plaintiffs' Complaint alleged, in paragraph 16, that the Mitchell River had been classified by the Environmental Management Commission of the NRCD [DEHNR] as an Outstanding Water Resource" pursuant to N.C.G.S. §143-214.1 and 15 NCAC 2H .0216; 6. That plaintiffs, Complaint sought injunctive relief as well as punitive and remedial orders of the Court; 7. That on February 8, 1989, the parties herein entered into a Consent Judgment (hereinafter Judgment], which is incorporated herein by reference without being fully set out, and which provided, inter aalia, that it was "the intent of the parties" that the Judgment "completely resolves all past differences," that the plaintiffs' actions against the defendant for "violations of laws, rules and regulations by the defendant "for actions taken place prior to the date" of the Judgment were withdrawn and dismissed and, that "no civil penalties will be assessed under the terms of any statute, rule, or regulation for any alleged violations occurring on or before the date" of the Judgment; and which further provided as follows: (11) That "it is further agreed and so ordered that the State through the office of the Attorney General shall request all other State agencies having any complaint concerning this Judgment or any future actions of any of the parties to address their alleged grievances first to counsel for the State, and that such matters shall be attempted to be resolved in the manner provided in paragraph 12"; (12) That "it is agreed and so ordered that it is the intent of the parties that this Consent Judgment completely resolves all past differences among the parties; it is the further intent of all parties to cooperate fully in the future to insure complete cooperation with each other; However, that in the event that future disagreements should arise over any alleged violation of this agreement, that it is agreed that counsel fob- the alleged aggrieved party shall immediately contact the counsel for the opposing party and attempts be made to resolve by negotiation any disagreement; that in the event the counsels are unable to resolve any such disagreement either party shall retain the right to file a Motion in the Cause in these cases for any alleged future violations of this agreement or the applicable law"; 8. That on August 8, 1989, plaintiffs, pursuant to paragraph 12 of the Judgment, filed with the Court a "Motion in the Cause," alleging violations by defendant of certain provisions of the -2- Judgment and of State environmental law, including inter alia: a. The failure to prevent off -site sedimentation (paragraph 5 of plaintiffs' Motion) ; b. The failure properly to maintain sediment basins with the result that "water -carrying sediment was passing through the ineffective sediment control measures and was carried directly into water courses carrying the sediment off -site" (paragraph 6(a) of plaintiffs' Motion) ; C. That "a significant amount of sedimentation had been carried to Sam's Branch, and other tributaries on the project flowing to the Mitchell River, and that an inspection of Sam's Branch and the Mitchell River noted a significant amount of sediment in the stream bed as well as sediment being carried downstream" (paragraph 6(d) of plaintiffs' Motion); d. That "an inspection of the site on July 10, 1989 revealed that the site was still in violation" of the Act and the Judgment (paragraph 9 of plaintiffs' Motion); e. That inspections of July 21 and July 25, 1989, noted "failure" to make correction to violations of the Judgment and the Act previously noted, and that "sedimentation is leaving the site and entering Sam's Branch, a tributary of the Mitchell River, and Laurel Branch; and, further, that "the Mitchell River is classified as an Outstanding Resource Water (ORW) by the NCRD [ DEHNR ] and both the Mitchell River and Laurel Branch are classified as trout streams" and that "both the Mitchell River and Laurel Branch have suffered extensive damage due to the sedimentation" (paragraph 12 of plaintiffs' Motion) ; f. That an inspection of July 24, 1989, of defendant's site "by authorized personnel of the Water Quality Section of the NRCD [DEHNR] "revealed that vast amounts of sediment were being transported from the drainage pipe of a dam located on the subject property into the Laurel Branch: that NRDC [DEHNR] "learned that this` sedimentation was caused by the opening of a drainage valve which -drained water and sediment which had been trapped by the dam through the drain and . directly _ into the Laurel Branch," and that the NRCD [DEHNR]" estimaEes that thousands of cubic feet of sediment entered the stream in a two day period" (paragraph 13 of plaintiffs' Motion) ; and, finally, g. That "Olde Beau's failure to take the necessary erosion control measures required by NRCD "[DEHNR] and "its failure to prevent new violations" have "caused tremendous damage to both the Mitchell River and Laurel Branch," that "this damage may be so severe as to have long term effects on the flora and fauna supported by the streams," and that "the sedimentation of the streams has clearly diminished the recreational and aesthetic value -3- of both streams," and that "such diminution may be long-term in effect" (paragraph 14 of plaintiffs' Motion); 9. That in the aforesaid Motion, plaintiffs sought that defendant be held in contempt and fined, and that the Court order remedial measures as well as award damages; 10. That plaintiffs' Motion came on to be heard pursuant to a Special Commission of the undersigned for the trial of civil cases in the county of Yadkin to begin on August 21, 1989, and to continue until the business is disposed of; 11. That at said hearing, plaintiffs introduced evidence in support of their contentions, including, but not limited to, testimony by Mr. Abner Braddy of the Water Quality Section of the Division of Environmental Management [hereinafter DEM] of DEHNR regarding, inter alia, water turbidity samples taken from the Laurel Branch on July 24, 1989, and from Mr. Dave Lenant of the DEM regarding studies conducted in August, 1988, and August, 1989, by the Water Quality Section of DEM regarding the impact of sedimentation on the biological integrity of the Mitchell River and Laurel Branch, a copy of said study being received into evidence at the hearing over objection of defendant; that, in addition, evidence was presented of a study by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission in August, 1988, and August, 1989, regarding fish count in the trout population of the Laurel Branch and Mitchell River, a copy of which study was also received into evidence at said hearing; 12. That on September 5, 1989, this court entered an Order [hereinafter Order] based upon the evidence received at the aforesaid hearing on plaintiffs' Motion, which Order is incorporated herein by reference without being fully set out and which included, inter alia, the following Findings of Fact: a. That on at least seventeen occasions during the period from March 10, 1989, to August 14, 1989, representatives of DEHNR visited the site of defendant's development for purposes of making inspections to determine the -compliance of defendant with the Judgment, the 'Act, and applicable Administrative 'Rules, (paragraph 15); b. That Mr. Douglas Miller [Regional Supervisor of DEHNR], in late December, 1988, and in late March, 1989, walked the course of the Mitchell River from its headwaters to past the point of the Mitchell River's confluence with its tributary, Sam 's Branch (paragraph 18); C. That Mr. Miller testified that he observed, both in late December, 1988, and in late March, 1989, silt -type sediment in the Mitchell River at a point past its juncture with Sam's Branch, that Sam's Branch originates on.the site of defendant's -4 - development, and that there is no other source of sediment into Sam'..s Branch except from the property of the defendant (paragraph 19); d. That Mr. Miller testified that he could not express an opinion as to whether the amount of sediment he observed in the Mitchell River in late March, 1989, was in any way different from what he had observed in late December, 1988 (paragraph 20); e. That Mr. Ward (David Ward, Assistant Regional Engineer of DEHNR) on June 27, 19891 inspected the area of the Mitchell River located on private propertynear defendant's site, and that, in the course of that inspection, he also inspected defendant's site (paragraph 23); f. That Mr. ward testified that he observed silt -like sedimentation in the Mitchell River on June 27, 1989, and on June 30, 1989, at a point of said river past its confluence with Sam's Branch, which sedimentation, in his opinion, was caused by accelerated erosion as opposed to natural erosion, and that, in his:bpinion, sediment he observed being retained in sedimentation control measures on the site of defendant's development was of the same type that he observed at the point in question in the Mitchell River, but that Mr. Ward gave no opinion in his testimony as to when said sediment he observed in the Mitchell River had been deposited therein (paragraph 25); g. That Mr. Ward prepared and furnished to defendant on June 30, 1989, a Sedimentation Inspection Report reflecting (his] inspection of defendant's property and the Mitchell River site, which report stated that the 'river is still turbid from rains on June 24-25, 1989,' and contained no other statements regarding the Mitchell River (paragraph 27); h. That Mr. Miller, in his testimony, acknowledged that neither the Sedimentation Inspection Report of June 30, 1989 nor any other Sedimentation Inspection Report prepared by agents of DEHNR contained any indication of off -site sedimentation from defendant's property into the Mitchell River (paragraph 29); r That no credible evidence was introduced herein, whether in the form of simple comparative measurements, soil core sample comparisons, or otherwise, of any off -site sedimentation into the Mitchell River from the defendant's property after February 6, 1989 (paragraph 30); j. That the plaintiffs, and in particular DEHNR have presented no credible explanation or justification for the failures set out in paragraphs 20, 21, 24, 25, 27, 28, 29 and 30 above, and that such failures are both inexplicable and inexcusable (paragraph 58) ; -5- k. That Mr. Dave Lenat, an Environmental Biologist employed by the Division of Environmental Management..., testified that, in his opinion, there is no faster way of restoring streams exposed to sediment pollution than the natural process of the stream's flushing out of the sediment, and that, if the Mitchell River is not further exposed to additional sedimentation from accelerated erosion, any decrease in the abundance and taxa richness of invertebrate life in the River which he found from comparative studies in August/September, 1988, and August, 1989, could be remedied and the River recover in approximately one year, and that the decrease in trout population indicated in studies done by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission in August, 1988; and August, 1989, could be recovered in up to five years (paragraph 32); 1. That off -site sedimentation from the defendant's development site into the Laurel Branch occurred on March 10, March 29, May 9, May 31, June 15, July 21, July 25, and August 14, 1989 ... (paragraph 44); M. That defendant failed, on or about July 25, 1989, to take such reasonable measures, including, but not limited to removal of the drainage valve wheel or placing a chain lock on the wheel, as would have prevented unauthorized opening of the drainage valve [ of a dam located on defendant's site in an area adjacent to the Laurel Branch] (paragraphs 43 and 45); n. That the Laurel Branch, a tributary of the Little River, is classified by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission as a designated Public Mountain Trout Water, a stocked trout stream, and is a valuable public resource (paragraph 49); o. That, according to -the testimony of Mr. Dave Lenat, the Laurel Branch is, at this time, experiencing 'severe stress' as a result of sediment pollution, that his studies of the Laurel Branch in August/September, 1988, and August, 1989, indicated a significant decrease in the abundance and taxa richness of invertebrate life in the Branch, that studies done by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission in August, 1988, and August, 1989, - indicated a 100% decrease in the wild trout population on the Branch, meaning total elimination of that species... (paragraph 50) ; P. That substantial off -site sedimentation from the defendant's development site into the Laurel Branch has occurred since February 6, 1989, and that said sedimentation has had a significant effect on the abundance and taxa richness of invertebrate life in the Branch as well as on the wild trout Population, and that the Laurel Branch has been damaged as a result of said sedimentation (paragraph 51); q. That the provisions of the Judgment for negotiation and subsequent Motion in the Cause as set out in paragraph 12 of the Judgment should not be construed as a bar to the plaintiffs seeking remedies under N.C.G.S. S113A-64(a) or NCAC 15(4)(C), but that the negotiations contemplated and provided for in said Judgment should be concluded prior to the plaintiffs seeking such remedy; and further, that, to facilitate such negotiations, copies of all Sedimentation Inspection Reports, Notices of Violation, and othet such documents should be mailed by agents of plaintiffs to counsel for defendant contemporaneously with the delivery to or service upon defendant of such document (paragraph 52); 13. That the Order assessed certain monetary penalties against defendant,* directed full compliance with the orders of the Court herein as well as the applicable law and administrative rules, and further directed defendant to submit to the Court a plan "to correct damage caused by off -site sedimentation in areas of the Laurel Branch adjacent to the defendant's development site," which plan was ordered to "be implemented by defendant at its own costs"; 14. That the Order further directed "that the provisions of the Judgment as set out in paragraph 12 shall not be construed as a bar to the plaintiffs seeking remedies under N.C.G.S. S113A-64 (a) or NCAC 15 (4) (C) , but that the negotiations referred to in said Judgment shall be concluded prior to the plaintiffs seeking such remedy," and further, "that agents of plaintiffs shall mail to counsel for defendant copies of all Sedimentation Inspection Reports, Notices of Violation, and other such documents contemporaneously with the delivery to or service upon defendant of such document"; 15. That N.C.G.S. S143B-279.2 provides that included among the duties of DEHNR is "to provide for the protection of the environment," and "to provide for the management of the State's natural resources"; 16. That N.C.G.S. §143B-282 provides for the creation of "the Environmental Management Commission [hereinafter EMC] of the Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources" [DEHNR], and N.C.G.S. §Envi282(4) provides that all rules and regulation adopted by -the commission shall be enforced" by DEHNR; 17. That N.C.G.S. S143B -279.3 (a) (15) , by amendment effective July..1? 1989, provides that all functions, powers, duties, and obligations" of the EMC are "transferred to and vested in DEHNR by a 'Type I' transfer as defined in N.C.G.S. S143A-6" ; 18. That N.C.G.S. § 14 3A-6 (a) provides that when any agency is transferred by a Type I transfer to a principal department, "all its prescribed powers, duties, and functions, including but not limited to rule making, regulation, licensing, and promulgation of rules, rates, regulations, and standards, and the rendering of findings, orders, and adjudications are transferred to the head of -7- the principal department into which the agency, or part thereof, has been transferred", 19. That N.C.G.S. §143B-281.1, a part of Session Laws 1989, c. 727, s 229 which included the amendment to N.C.G.S. §143B- 279.3(15) noted in paragraph 17 above, specifically provided that "the Wildlife Resources Commission shall exercise all its prescribed statutory powers independently of the Secretary of Environment, Health,and Natural Resources and, other provisions of this Chapter notwithstanding, shall be subject to the direction and supervision of the Secretary only with respect to the management functions of coordinating and reporting"; and further, that neither said Session Laws, nor any other statute, effective at the date of the hearing herein, provide such independence and exclusion for the EMC; 20. That N.C.G.S. §143B-14(b) provides that "except as otherwise provided in the Executive Organizational Act of 1973, in G.S. 120-30.28 or in G.S. 150B-11(3), the powers, duties, and functions of a commission (including but not limited to rule making, regulation, licensing, and promulgation of rules, rates, regulations, and standards, and the rendering of findings, orders, and adjudications) shall not be subject to the approval, review, or control of the head of the department or of the Governor"; 21. That N.C.G.S. §143B-279.3(a)(15), set out in Paragraph 17. above, is a 1989 amendment to the Executive Organization Act of 1973; 22. That the Water Quality Section of DEM of DEHNR is re- sponsible for investigations into alleged violations of, and the enforcement of the Water Pollution Control Act appearing at Article 21 of Chapter 143 of the General Statutes; 23. That NCAC 15A 21 .0001-.0011 provides "the procedures and standards governing the assessment" of civil penalties by EMC for, i- alia, "water violations as prescribed in G.S. 143-215.6(a)" and "well construction violations as prescribed in G.S. 87-94"; 24. That N.C.G.S. §87-94(b) provides that "no penalty shall be assessed until the person alleged to be in violation has been: 1. Notified of the violation in accordance with the Notice provision'set-out in G.S. 87-91(a)"...; 25. That N.C.G.S. §87-91(a) provides that whenever EMC "has reasonable grounds to believe there has been a violation of this Article, or any rule or regulation adopted pursuant thereto," the EMC or DEHNR "shall give written notice to the person or persons alleged to be in violation. Such notice shall identify the provision of this Article, or regulation issued hereunder, alleged to be violated and the facts _alleged to constitute such violation [emphasis added]; 26. That neither the provisions of N.C.G.S. §143-215.1(a), N.C.G.S. §143-215.3 (a) (1) (4) , nor N.C.G.S. §143-215.6, nor any rule or regulation adopted thereunder, provides for any such notice of alleged violation and, in particular, for notice of the facts alleged to constitute such violation, nor contains any prohibition against assessment of penalties without prior notification of facts alleged to constitute such violation; 27. That on September 1, 1989, the DEM of DEHNR prepared a "Notice of Violation and Recommendation of Enforcement Action" (hereinafter "Notice"] over the signature of Mr. Larry Coble, Regional Supervisor of DEM, which "Notice" was introduced at this hearing as plaintiffs' exhibit 18 without objection, and is incorporated herein by reference without being fully set out, and which Notice was not served 'on defendant until on or about September 21, 1989, when defendant received a copy thereof by direct mail; 28. That plaintiffs' exhibit 17, introduced at this hearing without objection, a DEM memorandum, indicates, by the language "a notice was not prepared to advise Mr. Billy Satterfield of impending enforcement but it can be after further legal review... , " that the delay between the preparation of and service of plaintiffs' exhibit 18 on defendant was intentional and purposeful on the part of the DEM of DEHNR; 29. That no credible evidence was introduced at this hearing to show that plaintiffs' exhibit 18 was mailed to counsel for defendant, or that the negotiations provided for in paragraphs 11 and 12 of the Judgment and in paragraph 9 of the order were carried on or attempted to be carried.on by the plaintiffs prior to the actions set out herein in paragraphs 31 et. sect.; 30. That nothing in the contents of plaintiffs' exhibit 18 provides defendant with notice of any facts alleged to constitute violations of the statutory section, administrative code section, or reference to "other regulations and laws" cited therein; and further, that the statutory section cited in said exhibit, N.C.G.S. S143-215.1 comprises nearly seven pages in the statutes and deals with, inter alia, permit requirements for sewer systems, waste treatment facilities and disposal of sludge, as well as for making "any outlet into the waters of the State"; and further, that the administrative code section alleged to be violated, Title 15 NCAC S.0200 is incomplete because it -contains no subchapter indication, and that subchapters 2B (surface monitoring standards), 2C (well construction standards) , 2D (air pollution control requirement) , 2E (capacity use area water withdrawal) , 2F (construction grounds) , 2H (procedures for permits: approvals), 2I (hearings), 2K (dam safety), 2L (ground water classifications and standards), and 2M (North Carolina water pollution control revolving fund), all contain a Section .0200; 31. That on October 2, 1989, an "Enforcement Conference" (hereinafter "Conference"] was conducted under the supervision of Mr. R. Paul Wilms, [hereinafter Wilms], then the director of DEMO 32. That at said "Conference,," . Wilms in his capacity as Director of M, signeda document entitled Findings and Decision and Assessment of (sic.],(hereinafter Assessment"] which document was introduced at this hearing, without objection, as defendant's exhibit 12, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference without being fully set out; 33. That upon receipt of the aforesaid "Assessment," defendant filed herein, on October 12, 1989, a Motion seeking that plaintiffs be held in contempt, injunctive relief, sanctions and attorneys fees, and such other relief as the Court deemed just and proper, which Motion was scheduled. for hearing at the Special Session of this Court referred to above; 34. That prior to this Court hearing any matters herein at the aforesaid Special Session, the Court inquired of counsel for plaintiffs and defendant if they consented and agreed "that this Court has jurisdiction over all pending matters and agreed to waive any further notice or order regarding jurisdiction and propriety of this Court hearing all pending matters," and that counsel for plaintiffs and the defendant each responded that they did so agree; 35. That neither defendant, nor any agent thereof, nor its counsel, were notified of the "Conference" referred to in paragraph 31 above, were not afforded an opportunity to attend and thus did not attend, and were not afforded an opportunity to be heard at said "Conference" and thus were not heard; 36. That Wilms testified at this hearing, and the Court specifically finds, as follows: a. That Wilms first considered- the matters addressed in the "Assessment" on October 2, 1989, when defendant's exhibit 12 was presented to him by staff counsel of the Office of Legal Affairs of DEHNR.at the "Conference" held on said date; b. That Wilms had no conversation with anyone regarding treceiving is or possible contents of defendant's exhibit 12 prior said exhibit at the ��Conference" on said date; C. That Wilms did not see or review the Enforcement Report referred to in plaintiffs' exhibit 18 and prepared by DEM, nor any other supporting documentation, prior to his signing of, or during his consideration of, defendant's exhibit 12 at the "Conference" on October 2, 1989; -10- M d. That Wilms made no changes or amendments in the document presented to him and which he signed on October 2, 1989, as the "Assessment"; e. That the only "evidence" or information Wilms possessed in signing the "Assessment" was the information contained therein; f. That Wilms based his decision on whether or not to assess any penalty against defendant and the amount thereof, if any, solely on the contents of defendants' exhibit 12; g. That Wilms recalled no comment at the "Conference" being made by DEM Winston-Salem Regional Supervisor, Larry D. Coble, DEM Water Quality Section Chief, Mr. Tetter, and DEM Deputy Director, Charles Wakild, the only other persons present, in addition to staff counsel, at the "Conference"; 37. That Wilms testified at this hearing, and the Court finds, that in the "Assessment," he considered the sediment referred to therein to be "waste" as defined in N.C.G.S. §143- 213(18)(c), that is, "all other substances...which may be discharged into or placed in such proximity to the water that drainage therefrom may reach the water"; 38. That the term "sediment" is not contained in the protections and prohibitions of Article 21, Part I, of Chapter 143 of the North Carolina General Statutes, nor is the word "waste" contained anywhere in the "Assessment"; 39. That Wilms, in the "Assessment," makes conclusions of law at paragraph II.C., that defendant violated N.C.G.S. §143- 215.1(a)(1) "in the manner and to the extent set out in paragraphs I.L.' and M above"; at paragraph II.E., that defendant "violated N.CG.S. §143-215.1(a)(6) in the manner and to the extent set out in paragraphs I.L., M. , and Net above" • at paragraph hat defendant violated 15 NCAC 2B . 0211(b) "in he manner Iand totheextent set out in paragraphs I.G., M., O., P., Q., R., and T. above"; and at paragraph II.J.,.'that defendant violated 15 NCAC 2B .0216 and 15 NCAC 2B ' . 0211(f ) "in the manner and to the extent set out in paragraphs I.G., P., and Q. above"; 40. That paragraph I.G. of the "Assessment," as well as paragraphs I.F., H.,-I., J., P., and Q., refer to matters and events which. transpired on or before February 8, 1989, the date of the Judgment; 41. That paragraphs I.L., M., N., O., P., Q., R., and T. of the "Assessment," as well as paragraphs I.K., and S., all refer to matters raised by the plaintiffs at the August 21, 1989 hearing and to matters which were actually litigated and determined at said hearing; -11- 42. That only the "findings" set forth in paragraphs I.D. and W. of the "Assessment" refer to matters not dealt with by this Court in the Judgment and the order, the "Assessment" at paragraphs I.U. being unclear, since paragraph I.U. refers to the "turbidity levels" found in paragraph I.N., which paragraph contains no reference to turbidity levels, which references are found only in paragraphs I.G., and O. of the "Assessment"; 43. That N.C.G.S. §143-215.6(3) provides that "in determining the amount of the penalty the Commission [EMC] shall consider the degree and extent of harm caused by the violation and the cost of rectifying the damage," and that NCAC 15A 02J .0006 provides that "in determining the amount of the assessment, the Commission [EMC] ... shall consider the following standards and shall cite those deemed applicable: (1) Gravity of the violation and the degree and extent of harm, including but not limited to the following: (a) For a water violation: violated, (i) Effluent standard (s) or water quality standard(s) (ii) Type of other violation, Duration, ' (iv) Cause, (v) Effect on receiving waters, public health, and fish or wildlife, (vi) Effectiveness of preventive or responsive measures taken by violator; (2) Cost of rectifying any damage; (3) The violator's previous record in complying or not complying with the 'law and implementing regulations of the Commission"; 44. That at no place in the "Assessment" is any "finding" indicating the cost of repairing any environmental damage set out therein, but that paragraph III of the "Assessment" recites that Wilms, in determining the amount of penalty, considered "the cost of rectifying the damage"; submit. to thetCin the a order, this Courtdirected defendant to plan for correcting damage caused by off - site sedimentation into areas of the Laurel Branch adjacent to defendant's development site, which plan was to be filed with this -12- Court at a later time partly because neither defendant nor plaintiffs were able to advise the Court at that time of any estimated cost of repair of such damage; and that further, on November 22, 1989, upon receipt of defendant's "Plan" presented to the .Court, the plaintiffs requested ten to fourteen additional days to 'prepare its response, "including the preparation of any alternative plan should the State determine such is appropriate"; and further, that the plaintiffs, in their "Response" to defendant's "Plan" filed on December 5, 1989, characterize defendant's "Plan" as "doing nothing," and argue that a "comprehensive, realistic and detailed plan" is required "in order to effectively address the damage done to the Laurel Branch," but provide no such plan or estimated cost, all of which foregoing suggests that information regarding "the cost of rectifying the damage" was not available to plaintiffs even at that date, some two months after the "Assessment"; and further, that even the evidence of such cost presented at this hearing was in the form of estimates, although said estimates seem to have been reasonably calculated; 46. That it was intended by this Court, at the time of entry of its Order, that the sum expended by defendant pursuant to paragraph seven of said Order be a full and complete penalty to, and;'reparation by, defendant to the State for damage it caused to the ,-Laurel Branch, as determined under any applicable environmental statute of this State or any administrative regulation adopted thereunder, by off -site sedimentation or sediment discharge into said Branch from defendant's development site occurring on or before the date of said Order; and further, that this Court's Order setting such amount to be expended by defendant, filed prior to this Order, expressly so provides; 47. That the "Assessment" imposes a penalty of $10, 000.00 for an alleged violation by defendant of N.C.G.S. S143-215.1(a)(1) and N. C. G. S. S143-215.1(a) (6) by its failure to have required permits, but that nowhere in the "Assessment" is a "finding" that defendant did not have the required permits, but only a "conclusion" that defendant was required to have the permits; 48. That the actual total of the penalties imposed by Wilms in the "Assessment" is $36,357:45, as opposed to the $41,357.45 total appearing therein; 49. That Wilms, in entering the "Assessment," acted on the advice of counsel; The Court further finds as a fact and concludes as a matter of law as follows: 50. That pursuant to the parties' stipulation set forth in paragraph 34 above, the provisions of the Judgment and of the Order, as well as the inherent power and authority of this Court, -13- separately and independently as well as collectively, as well as pursuant to paragraphs 1, 2, 31 7, 8, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 21, 22, 27 31, 34, 39, 40, 41, 42 and 46, above, separately and independently of each of the foregoing as well as collectively therewith, this Court has jurisdiction of the parties and of all matters dealt with herein; 51. That pursuant to the stipulation of the parties set forth in paragraph 34 above, plaintiffs have waived any contention that defendant be required to pursue remedies pursuant to Article 4, Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes or otherwise prior to seeking relief from this Court with reference to matters set forth in defendant's Motion; 52. That the parties herein and those involved in the Wilms "Assessment" are one and the same, action being taken in the Wilms "Assessment" against defendant by agents of DEHNR and the State, as more particularly set out in paragraphs 1, 21 31 11, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 200, 21, 221, 27, 31, 32, 36g., 39, 40, 41, and 42, above; 53. That all matters dealt with in the "Assessment" were actually litigated and determined, or could or should have been, in the exercise of reasonable diligence by the plaintiffs at the hearing of this Court which resulted in the Judgment, and at the August 21, 1989 hearing of this Court which resulted in the Order; and further, that the Wilms "findings" dealt with matters in evidence before this -Court at the August 21, 1989 hearing and, indeed, reflect and contain findings of this Court in its September 5, 1989, Order; all as more particularly set out in paragraphs 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 33, 39, 40, 41 and 42 above; 54. By virtue of the foregoing paragraphs 52 and 53, plaintiffs are estopped from attempting to enforce or seeking defendant's compliance with the "Assessment"; "55. That no emergency existed requiring State action on or before October 2, 1989 to prevent environmental damage with reference to the matters dealt with in the "Assessment," because all matters dealt with therein were already subject to directives of this Court as set out in the.'Judgment and more particularly in the order; 56. That Wilms', imposition of a $10,000.00 penalty against defendant for "causing the impairment of the best usage for the Sam's Branch and upper Mitchell River" was based on acts of defendant occurring before February 6, 1989, and is in violation of the Judgment, that Wilms had no authority or jurisdiction to impose said penalty, and said penalty is, therefore, null and void, and the plaintiffs are estopped from attempting to enforce or seeking defendant's compliance with said penalty; -14- 57. That plaintiffs, as parties to this action and to the "Assessment" acted, in the securing and imposition of said "Assessment," in violation of the Judgment and the Order of this Court, as set forth in Paragraphs 7, 14 and 29 above, that Wilms had no authority or jurisdiction to enter said "Assessment", and said "Assessment" is, therefore, null and void, and plaintiffs are estopped from attempting to enforce or seeking defendant's com- pliance with said "Assessment;" 58. That, except as stated in his "findings," Wilms, who by his own testimony considered only the contents of defendant's exhibit 12 in determining whether to assess any penalty against defendant and the amount, if any, thereof, failed to consider the standards set forth in NCAC 15A 02J .0006 and failed to comply with N.C.G.S. §143-215.6(3) in determining the amount of penalties imposed against defendant; and further, that Wilms statement in Paragraph III of the "Assessment" that he considered the "cost of rectifying the damage" is not supported by any finding of fact in his "Assessment" reciting any estimate of said cost, and is not credible in light of other circumstances set forth above; all as more particularly set forth in Paragraphs 36, 43 and 44 above; 59. That, under N.C.G.S. Chapter 143, Article 21, Part 1, as applied to the facts of this case and the evidence presented to the Court as more particularly set out in Paragraphs 32, 36, and 37 above, sediment does not constitute "waste" as defined in N.C.G.S. §143-213 (18) (c) ; 60. That defendant, prior to and by virtue of the entry and signing of the "Assessment" on October 2, 1989, and as more particularly set out above in Paragraphs 7, 14, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 3 3 , 35 and 36 above, has totally and completely been denied procedural due process with reference to said "Assessment" in violation of the laws and Constitution of this State and the United States, and that, therefore, said "Assessment" is null and void, and the plaintiffs are estoppel from attempting to enforce or seeking defendant's compliance with said "Assessment;" 61. That defendant, at the time of the "Assessment" on October 2-, 1989, was a "person" similarly situated to "persons" alleged to be in violation of N.C.G.S. S87-83 et. sea. , promulgated to safeguard and protect -"'the ground water resources of this State," and the disparity between the provisions of N.C.G.S. §87- 91(a) and N.C.G.S. S87-94(b), requiring notification to alleged violators and notification of the facts alleged to constitute violation, and the provisions of N.C.G.S. §143-215.1(a), N.C.G.S. §143-215.3 (a) (1) (4) , and N.C.G.S. §143-215.6, which fail to provide for notice to the alleged violators and, in particular, notice of the facts alleged to constitute violation, and under which statutes the "Assessment" was entered, lacks a rational basis and is ar- bitrary; and further, that defendant, in the entry and signing of the "Assessment" was denied equal protection of the laws as -15- guaranteed by the laws and Constitution of this State and the United States, and as more particularly set out in Paragraphs 23, 24, 25 and 26 above; and further, therefore, that the entry of the Assessment" against defendant pursuant to the aforesaid statutes is null and void and plaintiffs are estopped from attempting to enforce or seeking defendant's compliance with said "Assessment"; 62. That Wilms, in the entry of the "Assessment," acted on the advice of counsel, did not act in willful violation of the Judgment and the Order, and is not in contempt of this Court; 63. That it was intended by this Court, at the time of entry of its Order, that the sum expended by defendant pursuant to paragraph seven of said Order be a full and complete penalty to, and reparation by, defendant to the State for damage it caused to the Laurel Branch, as determined under any applicable environmental statute of this State or any administrative regulation adopted thereunder, by off -site sedimentation or sediment discharge into said. Branch from defendant's development site occurring on or before the date of said Order; and further, that this Court's Order setting such amount to be expended by defendant, filed prior to this Order, expressly so provides; 64. That the foregoing paragraphs 50, 51, 52 and 53 and 54 together, 56, 57,.58, 59, 60, 61, 62, and 63, each separately and independently, as well as collectively, constitute a proper and sufficient basis upon which this Court may enter its Order herein; BASED ON THE FOREGOING FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED AS FOLLOWS: 1. That the said "Assessments' is wholly and totally null and void and of no legal force or effect whatsoever, and the plaintiffs are estopped from, and are hereby prohibited from, attempting to enforce,or seeking defendant's compliance with)the said "Assess- ment" in any manner whatsoever; ,2. That the portion of Paragraph III of the "Assessment", imposing "a $10, 000.00 penalty against defendant for violation of NCAC 2B .0216, is wholly and totally null and void and of no legal force or effect whatsoever, and the plaintiffs are estopped from, and are hereby'prohibited from, attempting to enforce,,or seeking defendant's compliance with said paragraph of the "Assessment" in any manner whatsoever; 3. That Wilms, in entering the "Assessment", is not in contempt of this Court; 4. That the other relief prayed for in defendant's Motion is denied; and -16- 5.

PRESIDING -17- STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA ALLEGHANY COUNTY STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA, Ex Rel LACY H. THORNBURG, ATTORNEY GENERAL, and WILLLIAM W. COBEY, JR., SECRETARY, DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT, HEALTH, AND NATURAL RESOURCES, Plaintiffs, VS. OLDE BEAU, LIMITED, INC., Defendant. IN THE GENERAL COURT OF JUSTICE SUPERIOR COURT DIVISION 88 CVS 149 This matter coming on to be heard and being heard pursuant to the Order of this Court entered herein on September 5, 1989, and pursuant to a Special Commission of the undersigned for the trial of civil cases -in the county of Guilford, High Point Division, to begin on March 5, 1990, and to continue until the business is disposed. of, and pursuant to the consent of the parties given in open court as evidenced in the record herein; And the Court, based on the Court's consideration of the evidence presented by the plaintiffs and the defendant as well as the entire record herein, finds the facts as follows: 1. On September 5, 1989, this Court entered an Order which provided, inter alia, at Paragraph 7, "that defendant shall submit to the Court on or before 5:00 P.M. on Friday, November 17, 1989, a plan setting out in detail such reasonable measures as defendant proposes to undertake, subject to the rights of private property owners, in order to correct damage caused by off -site sedimentation into areas of the Laurel Branch ,adjacent to defendant's development site, said plan to include, but not be limited to, proposed methods of long-term removal• of said sediment from the Laurel Branch, if such removal is determined to be practical and not to cause further significant damage to said stream, and a replenishing in the Laurel Branch of trout, macro invertebrates and other biota, which plan shall be implemented by defendant at its own cost in a timely manner upon said plan's approval, in whole or in part, by the Court"; 2. That on or about November 17, 1989, defendant timely filed with this Court a document entitled "Defendant's Plan Pursu nt to September 5, 1989 Court Order" [hereinafter "Defend- :_�.�A t�s which document appears of record herein and is Page 2 88 CVS 149 incorporated by reference without being fully set out; 3. That on November 22, 1989, plaintiffs, through counsel, requested a ten to fourteen day period within which to make a response to "Defendant's Plan," "including the presentation of any alternative plans should the State determine such is appropriate," which request was allowed by the Court pursuant to oral directive communicated to counsel for plaintiffs and defendant; 4. That on December 5, 1989, plaintiffs filed with this Court a document entitled "Plaintiff's Response to Paper Writing Entitled 'Defendant's Plan Pursuant to September 5, 1989 Court order"' (hereinafter "Plaintiff's Response"), which document appears of record herein and is incorporated by reference without being fully -set out; 5. That on or about December 20, 1989, defendant filed with this Court a copy of a letter, with attachments, to defendant's counsel from Robert J. Goldstein, an Environmental Consultant, which letter contained numerous comments regarding "Plaintiff's Response," and which document appears of record herein and is incorporated by reference without being fully set out; 6. That, thereafter, the Court advised counsel for plaintiffs and defendant that It appeared necessary to have a hearing regarding what measures the Court might require defendant to take, pursuant to the Court's September 5, 1989, Order, to cor- rect damage to the Laurel Branch, and counsel for the plaintiffs and the defendant concurred; 7.. That, at said hearing, the Court heard, as witness for the defendant, Dr. Robert J. Goldstein, who was received as an expert in biology and environmental mitigation plans, and as witnesses for the plaintiffs, Joseph H. Mickey, Jr., Fishery Biologist with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, who was received as an expert in trout stream restoration, and Mr. James W. Gracie, who was ''received as an expert in trout stream restoration, and received into evidence as exhibits numerous publications and articles dealing with the general topic of stream improvement, including defendant's exhibits 2 , 34, 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , and 9, and plaintiffs' exhibits 1, 21 31 41 51 6, and 7, all of which the Court has considered in their entirety; 8. That the "affected area" of the Laurel Branch, that is, the area of said stream damaged as set out in this Court's September 5, 1989, Order, is as reflected on attachment "C" to "Plaintiff's Response"; Page 3 88 CVS 149 9. That measures to repair said damage to the Laurel Branch include stabilization of the watershed of the Branch, measures to remove sediment deposits, in -stream improvement measures, and vegetation planting; 10. That, as long as defendant complies with the previous Orders of this Court and the applicable law, the Laurel Branch watershed is stabilized from sources of overland flow on defendant's property that might carry silt and other materials into said Branch; 11. That the plaintiffs' evidence showed, and the Court finds, that removal of sediment deposits in the "affected area" of the Laurel Branch by means of suction dredging could be accom- plished at a cost of not more than $10,000.00; .12. That the plaintiffs' evidence showed, and the Court finds, that approximately three "flow constrictors", three "wing deflectors",, four "bank cover wing deflectors", and three "rip -rap areas" would be required, after sediment deposit removal from the Laurel Branch, to improve stream flow in the Branch, to provide in - stream or bank -type trout habitats, and to improve stream bank stabilization and provide for the attachment of vegetation; 13. That the defendant's evidence showed, and the Court finds, that the approximate per -structure cost for the aforesaid constrictors and deflectors would be $1,270.67, or a total not in excess of $12,706.70 for the ten structures; that a sixteen ton truckload of "rip -rap" would be required at each of the three rip - rap areas at a cost of $240.00 per truckload, plus labor, for a total not in excess of $1,000.00 for the "rip -rap areas"; 14. That the plaintiffs' evidence showed, and the Court finds, that the sum of $3,000.00 would adequately provide for the purchase and planting of vegetation at or near sites on the Laurel Branch at the "affected area" to provide for stream bank stabilization and to protect the Laurel Branch from insolation; 15. That*the plaintiffs' evidence showed, and the Court finds, that the sum , of $770.00 per year, for a period of three years, or a total of $2,310.00, is adequate for trout stocking in the Laurel Branch; 16. That, notwithstanding the contents of Paragraph 10 above, evidence of the plaintiffs and the defendant showed that a nec- essary precondition to the effectiveness of the Laurel Branch restoration is removal of sediment in the lower lake on the defendant's property (the westernmost lake on the defendant's Page 4 88 CVS 149 property contiguous to U.S. Highway 21 and left of the main entrance to defendant's project), said lake during the time of construction on defendant's development site having been intended both by the plaintiffs and defendant as a collection area for sediment run-off; and further, that construction in the area of drainage to said lake is virtually complete; and further, that said lake needs to be cleaned with all sediment removed; and further, that a sum not in excess of $10, 000.00 should be expended to remove sediment from said lake at the time of the stream restoration provided for herein; 17. That evidence of the plaintiffs and the defendant showed the necessity for State involvement in and supervision of any restoration project to be conducted in the Laurel Branch; 18. That it was intended by this Court at the time of the entry of its September 5, 1989, Order referred to herein, that the sum expended by defendant pursuant to paragraph seven of said Order be a full and complete penalty to, and reparation by, defendant to the State for damages caused to the Laurel Branch by off -site sedimentation into said Branch or discharge of sediment into said Branch from defendant's development site occurring on or before the date of said Order, as such damage might be determined under any applicable environmental statute of this State or any administra- tive regulation adopted thereunder; 19. That it is intended by this Court that payment by defendant of the sum of $10,000.00 for the removal of sediment in the said lower lake is for the purposes of removal of sediment deposited therein prior to the date of this order, and that pay- ment of the said sum along with the other sums herein provided constitutes a full and complete payment to the State with reference to "said sediment or the removal thereof under any applicable environmental statute of this State or any administrative regula- tion adopted thereunder; BASED ON THE FOREGOING FINDINGS OF FACT, THE COURT FURTHER FINDS AS A FACT AND CONCLUDES AS A MATTER OF LAW AS FOLLOWS: 1. That the sum of $39,016.70 will adequately provide the estimated cost of correcting damage by off -site sedimentation or deposit of sediment adjacent to said site, that is, the "affected area"; 2. That the interests of justice and of effective en- vironmental restoration will best be served by stream restoration activity in the Laurel Branch being contracted by, and conducted under the supervision of, agents of the plaintiffs; Page 5 88 CVS 149 3. That upon payment by defendant of the sum provided, and in the manner provided, in this Order, defendant shall have paid a full and complete penalty, and shall have made full and complete reparation, to the State for damage caused to the Laurel Branch by off -site sedimentation or sediment discharged from defendant's development site into areas of the Laurel Branch adjacent to said site, which damage may have occurred on or before the date of the Order of September 5, 1989, and as such damage might be determined under any applicable environmental statute of this State or any administrative regulation adopted thereunder, and defendant's liability to the State for any such damage should be terminated upon its compliance with this Order; 4. That upon payment by defendant of the sum of $10,000.00 pursuant to paragraph 16 above in the manner provided for in this Order, defendant shall have paid a full and complete sum for sediment removal from the said lower lake for sediment deposited in the said lower lake as of the date of this Order, and that, upon such payment, defendant shall have no liability for such sediment in the said lower lake and shall have no liability for sediment removal from the said lower lake for any sediment deposited therein prior to the date of this Order under any applicable environmental statute of this State or any administrative regulation adopted thereunder; BASED ON THE FOREGOING FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED AS FOLLOWS: 1. That within five days of the date of this Order, defend- ant shall pay into the office of the Clerk of Superior Court of Alleghany County the sum of $39,016.70, said sum to be dispersed by the Alleghany County Clerk of Superior Court to the Secretary of DEHNR, or his designate, to be utilized by DEHNR as hereinafter provided; 2. That the plaintiffs, and in particular DEHNR, as. soon as practicable upon receipt of the,,foregoing sum, shall contract for, conduct, supervise, and complete stream and trout restoration in the "affected area" of the Laurel Branch and removal of sediment in the said lower lake in a manner and by means best suited to correct most effectively damage caused by off -site sedimentation and sediment deposit into said area of the Laurel Branch, said restoration project to be completed as soon as practicable, but, with the exception of trout stocking, no later than six months from the .date of this Order; 3. That the Secretary of DEHNR shall cause to be filed with this Court 90 days from the date of this Order, and every 90 days thereafter, a full, detailed and complete accounting of how the sum received by the Secretary pursuant to this Order has been expended Page 6 88 CVS 149 to achieve the purpose of this Order, said accounting requirement to terminate upon certification of completion of the project by the Secretary to this Court and the Court's independent determination that said project has been completed; 4. That in addition to the requirements set forth in Paragraph 3 immediately above, the Secretary of DEHNR shall cause to be filed with the Office of the North Carolina State Auditor a copy of this Order, copies of all bid specifications that may be required hereunder, copies of contracts entered into by the State pursuant to the Order, detailed receipts of all funds received, detailed expenditures of all funds expended, and any and all other reports as may be requested by the State Auditor; further, should all of the sum provided for herein not be expended by the plain- tiffs for the purposes of this Order, such remaining sum shall be redeposited by the Secretary of DEHNR with the Clerk of Superior Court of Alleghany County for determination by the Court as to the disposition of the said sum; 5. That upon defendant's compliance with Paragraph 1 above, such compliance shall -constitute a full and complete penalty to, and reparation by, defendant to the State for damage caused to the Laurel Branch by off -site sedimentation and sediment discharge from defendant's development site into areas of the Laurel Branch adjacent to said site occurring on or before'September 51 1989, as such damage might be determined under any applicable environmental statute of this State or any administrative regulation adopted thereunder, and, upon defendant's compliance with Paragraph 1 of this Order, defendant's liability to the State for any such damage occurring on or before September 5, 1989 shall be terminated; 6. That upon defendant's compliance with Paragraph 1 above, such -compliance shall constitute a full and complete payment by defendant for sediment removal, from the lower lake referred to herein, and, upon such compliance, defendant shall have no liability for sediment in the said lower lake as of the date of this Order under any applicable environmental statute of this State or any administrative regulation adopted thereunder, and defendant shall have no liability for sediment removal from the said lower lake for sediment deposited in the said lake prior to the date of this Order under any applicable environmental statute of this State or any administrative regulation adopted thereunder; 7. That the parties may, by their mutual consent and Order of the Court, amend any provision of this Order herein; Page 7 88 CVS 149 B. That eacZ party shall bear its own costs. 7 This the day of June, 1990. June 111 1990 Charles H. Davis, Jr', Atlantic Plan Corp. P.O. Box 1691 Hickory, NC 28503 Re: Soils Evaluation for Proposed Drainfield for Olde Beau Clubhouse, Roaring Gap, NC Dear Mr. Davis; Two tranaects of soil pits (19)0 laid out on a lee, x lee, grid basis, were evaluated for purposes of determining the Boil suitability for a drainfield from the golf course olubhouse. The 9aoil pits dug with a backhoe were 3' wide and 2-5' deep, The soil characteristics of existing pits which had been previously evaluated by the Health Department, were re-evaluated. These pits are designated as "existing". A eeri.ea of new pits were dug on June 41 1990 and the soil characteristics evaluated. The findings of the soil evaluations are summarized below: Pit__100 --existing 3-4' soil thickness Clay loam subsoil good subsoil drainage 0.4 gpd loading rate Fit 200 - existing 3.5' soil t.hickneBB Silty clay loam subsoil good eubaoil drainage 0.4 gpd loading Elt 300 - existing 3' soil thickness more rock fragments well weathered saproli.te 0.4 gpd loading Pit 400 - existing Rock and eaprolite at surface Not suitable 0 gpd loading Pit 500 - existing 4' soil thickness clay loam eubsoi.l good subsoil drainage r 0.4 gpd loading Pit 600 - exiat;in 3' Boil thickness Silty clay loam subsoil 0.4 gpd loading PVt 700 - existing 30" soil thickness silty clay loam subsoil good subsoil drainage 0,4 gpd loading thin Boil/eaprolite transition P t 750 -_new 2' to eaprolite unsuitable 0 gpd loading TRANSCCT d Pit 100 B - new 2' to eaprolite unsuitable 0 gpd loading Pi-t- 200 B - new 2' to seprolite unsuitable , 0 gpd loading Elt 300 B - new 3' soil thickness slay loam subsoil 0.4 gpd_ loading Pit,.„350 C - new 2' to eaprolite unsuitable 0 gpd loading Pit 400 B - new 3' Moil thickness clay loam subsoil high concentration of rock fragments good subeoil drainage 0.4 gpd loading P t 00 8 - existin 4' soil thickness clay loam subaoil good subsoil drainage 0.4 gpd loading Pit UP B - existing Shallow to rock Unsuitable 0 gpd loading PP& 700 8 new 3' soil thickness clay loam texture well weathered saprolite at 5' 0.4 gpd loading Pit 0 B new 2' to rock unsuitable 0 gpd loading Pit.__900 B "_ new 2'. to rock unsuitable 0 gpd loading 1000 8 - new 3' soil thickness well weathered saprolite silty clay loam subsoil 0.4 gpd loading Conclusions Moderately sloping topograsphy and good internal soil drainage are not restrictions on the use of this site for a drainfield. Exceseive soil variability and thin soil (<24") are restrictive to the use of this site for a drainfield. Soils with adequate thickness were located in an unpredictable pattern with very thin soils across the entire drainfi.eld area with a general tendency toward thinner soils lower in the proposed area. The soils weathered from micaceous gneiss tend to be thicker than the soils weathered from the miltstone, The net result of the complicated moil thickness pattern is the likelihood that a drainfield trench Of 100, in length could have soils with both suitable and unsuitable thickness in the same trench. Betsed on theses findings, it does not appear this is sufficient area of suitably thick soil to handle the proposed flow for an operational drainfield plug equal repair area.

Director Subject: NPDES Permit Application Number NCO078158 Olde Beau Golf Club Allegheny County Dear Mr. Davis: This is in response to the matters discussed in the May 23rd meeting at this office with the Division of Environmental Management (DEM) permits staff, regional staff, and technical support staff. DEM Regulation 15 NCAC 2H .0105 (c) (2) requires that the staff "...assure that the most environmentally sound alternative was selected from the reasonably cost effective alternatives." After reviewing the cost estimates on ground absorption, spray irrigation, and wastewater discharge into a stream, it appeared that a discharge into a stream is the best economic option. However, operating costs were not taken into account. When including operating costs, subsurface disposal is undeniably the best option from a cost effectiveness standpoint as well as the most environmentally sound alternative. It was determined in the meeting that there are extensive areas of land that have not been developed at the site. The driving range, the areas north of the proposed clubhouse, and the undeveloped lots surrounding the fairways could be utilized for the subsurface system. Further evidence of the feasibility of this form of_ disposal is the recently granted county permit for a portion of the flow from the clubhouse. It is the DEM's position that a treatment system that disposes of its wastewater in a method other than discharging into the surface waters is the preferable method of treatment and disposal for the subject project. After further discussions among staff members and a second evaluation of the permit application, it has been determined that additional information is needed to insure that the requirements of 15 NCAC 2H .0105 (c) (7) and North Carolina General Statute 143.215.1 (b) (1 a) are met. After consultation with our Office of General Counsel, it has been determined that the attached questionnaire regarding substantial previous compliance must be completed and submitted to the DEM, for review. Unless you are able to provide (1) additional information to justify your request for a discharge permit and (2) evidence of substantial compliance with environmental regulations, it is the intention of this Division to proceed to public notice with intent to deny your application for a NPDES Permit. This information must be submitted by July 31, 1990, to avoid return of the project or initiation of denial proceedings.

Sparta, N.C. Ocne Wilson Chairman Board of Hiralth Re: Olde Beau Development Mr.. Billy Satterfield The Appalachian District Health Department has performed preliminary evaluations for an on -site sewage disposal system for 01de Beau Clubhouse, Our evaluations were based on a design daily flow of. 18,000 gallons and A long term acceptance rate of 0,4 gallons per day. These figures would indicate a drainfield size of 45,000 square feet, utilizing three (3) foot wide trenches placed on nine (9) foot centers with each trench one hundred (100) feet long would result in a system of 135,000 square feet, or 3.06 acres. This requirement is based on ideal, conditions of uniform al.ope, topography and adequate soils throughout. There also would be a requirement of equivalent space made available for repairs. The rugged topography which characterized the study area has caused past problems with design, installation and operation of on --site ground absorption sewage disposal systems. Although it is possible to locate. disposal systems on lots with slopes as great;. as 257, when such 3ocations altao havo shallow soils as these do, the resulting system may fail. and cause seepage of effluent at the top of the slopes, We feel we must also consider the amount of ni, rate buildup in ground -water that a system this size could cause, Therefore, the soil structure, depth to ground- water, and long term acceptance rates must be optimal, In this area, not all. these factors are.sui.table for a system 3 acres in size, In determining the overall site sttit.ability for systems in excess of 3,000 gallons per day a minimum of two (2) feet of suitable soil must be maitz-- tainable between the ground absorption field trench bottom and the seasonally _ 1Jh / j j/ JrJ. 1 Z J Q. l . 1 .

Also, "fields shall be located so that trenches can be installed level and parallel to the natural ground contour"; and "field configuration must not result in an excessive amount of effluent being distributed up and down a common slope". Considering -the topography of this area and the amount of effluent to be disposed of, the preceeding requirements will: 1) almost double the amount of space required, and 2) saturate with effluent virtually every elope in a 3-6 acre area. Drainage provisions for such a massive system may also alter the natural flow of surface and groundwaters to different river basisn. Water normally flowing to the Mitchell River basin could be diverted away from a drainfield in that area and directed toward the New River basin or vice versa. • Also of great concern is the lack of homogenous soils and soil depths throughout the area. Since water and effluent moves bath horizontally and vertically through the soils, we must ensure that the soils downsl.ope of the system are capable of accepting the flow and will not become over- loaded. As described in the soils evaluation, soil depths ranged from 2 feet to 4 feet, soil textures ranged from saprol.ite to silty clay loam. Soil depths varied up and down the slope 2 feet to 4 feet with very thin soils toward the lower areas. Based on the aforementioned requirements and considering the enormity of the system, the space required to insall such a system and the complexity of design, installation and operation, we do not feel that a ground .absorption sewage sisposal system is the preferred method of waste disposal for Olde Beau. We would consider an NPDES wastewater treatment plant the only logical and environmentally sound method of waste disposal, for Olde Beau Clubhouse. CDT; of cc: Larry I).

Box 1691 Hickory, KC 28603 Re: Soils Evaluation for Proposed Drainfield for Olde Beau Clubhouse, Roaring Gap, KC Dear Mr. Davis; Two transects of soil pits (19), laid out on a 100' x 100' grid basis, were evaluated for purposes of determining the soil suitability for a drainf field from the golf course clubhouse. The soil pits dug with a backhoe were 3' wide and 2-5' deep. The soil characteristics of existing pits which had been previously evaluated by the Health Department, were re-evaluated. These pits are designated as "existing". A series of new pits were dug on June 4, 1990 and the soil characteristics evaluated. The findings of the soil evaluations are summarized below: Pit 100 - existing 3-4' soil thickness clay loam subsoil good subsoil drainage 0.4 gpd loading rate Pit 200 - existing 3.5' soil thickness silty clay loam subsoil good subsoil drainage 0.4 gpd loading Pit 300 - existing 3' soil thickness more rock fragments well weathered saprolite 0.4 gpd loading Pit 400 - existin Rock and saprolite at surface Not suitable 0 gpd loading Pit 500 - existina 4' soil thickness clay loam subsoil good subsoil drainage c 0.4 gpd loading Pit 600 - existin 3' soil thickness silty clay loam subsoil 0.4 gpd loading Pit 700 - existinq 30" soil thickness silty clay loam subsoil good subsoil drainage 0.4 gpd loading thin soil/saprolite transition Pit 750 - hew 2' to saprolite unsuitable 0 gpd loading TRANSECT B Pit 100 B - new 2' to saprolite unsuitable 0 gpd loading Pit 200 B - new 2' to saprolite unsuitable 0 gpd loading Pit 300 B - new 3' soil thickness clay loam subsoil 0.4 gpd loading Pit 350 C - new 2' to saprolite unsuitable 0 gpd loading Pit 400 B - new 3' soil thickness clay loam subsoil high concentration of rock fragments good subsoil drainage 0.4 gpd loading Pit 500 B - existin 4' soil thickness clay loam subsoil good subsoil drainage 0.4 gpd loading Pit 600 B - existing Shallow to rock Unsuitable 0 gpd loading Pit 700 B - new 3' soil thickness clay loam texture well weathered saprolite at 5' 0.4 gpd loading Pit 800 B - new 2' to rock unsuitable 0 gpd loading Pit 900 B - new 2' to rock unsuitable 0 gpd loading Pit 1000 B - new 3' soil thickness well weathered saprolite silty clay loam subsoil 0.4 gpd loading Conclusions Moderately sloping topography and good internal soil drainage are not restrictions , on the use of this site for a drainfield. Excessive soil variability and thin soil (<24") are restrictive to the use of this site for a drainf ield. Soils with adequate thickness were located in an unpredictable pattern with very thin soils across the entire drainfield area with a general tendency toward thinner soils lower in the proposed area. The soils weathered from micaceous gneiss tend to be thicker than the soils weathered from the siltstone. The net result of the complicated soil thickness pattern is the likelihood that a drainfield trench * . s e of 100' in length could have soils with both suitable and unsuitable thickness in the same trench. Based on these findings, it does not appear this is sufficient area of suitably thick soil to handle the proposed flow for an operational drainf field plus equal repair area.

Davis, Jr. Engineering and Plan- ning Consultants met with staff of Technical Support and Permits & Engineering. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the letter sent to Mr. Satterfield (April 11, 1990) in particular the engineering report requested. Attached is the summary of the alternatives to discharge for wastewater disposal. During the meeting, verification was made on the total wasteflow request for the dis- charge. The proposed amount of wasteflow has been reduced from 0.04 MGD to 0.02 MGD. This reduction is due to plans previously made for a hotel which are now eliminated. The wastewater disposal alternatives explored in this report were comparable in cost efficiency. The alternative which seems most functional for this area is sub -surface disposal (see attached report). The engineers as well as DEM staff concur with the proposed plan to go with sub -surface disposal. Permits and Engineering staff are submitting a letter to Mr. Satterfield stating our intention to deny the NPDES permit due to the sub -surface disposal alterna- tive. We will give Mr. Satterfield a period of 60 days to respond.

Box 32 Roaring Gap, N.C. 28668 Subject: Olde Beau Golf Club Request for NPDES permit Dear Mr. Satterfield, George T. Everett, Ph.D. Director The Division of Environmental Management (DEM) has completed a preliminary eval- uation of your NPDES permit application for discharge into Laurel Branch in Alleghany County. At this time we offer the following concerns related to your discharge: 1. The proposed location of the discharge is into a stream segment that is expected to experience 7Q10 (lowest flow for 7 days in ten years) flows down to zero. 2. The proposed receiving stream is classified as C-Trout which North Carolina water quality regulations (15 NCAC 2B.0211 (b)(3)(J) that the temperature of your discharge not cause the instream temperature to differ from background by more than 0.5 degrees Celsius nor exceed 20 degrees Celsius at any time. It is unlikely that the proposed facility can meet this restriction. 3. A pond is located approximately 100 feet downstream of the proposed discharge location. Effluent dominated streams entering ponds typically cause water quality related problems, such as eutrophication (i.e. excess algal growth), or deoxygenation. Given the above listed concerns and per North Carolina Administrative Code 2H .0105(c), you are hereby required to complete an engineering report demonstrating that your request for surface water discharge is the most environmentally sound wastewater disposal alternative (see attached).

Box 27687 Raleigh, NC 27611-7687 Subject: Reply to Olde Beau Golf Club Request for NPDES Permit Preliminary Evaluation Concerns Dear Mr. Tedder; Concerns: CHARLES H. DAMS, JR.. P.E. PRESIDENT (1) The proposed location is into a stream segment that is expected to experience 7 010 (lowest flow for 7 day in ten years) flows down to zero. Answer: According to information reported by phone from the review engineer, Jule 'Shanklin, the flow as reported by U. S. G. S. is 7 B10 - 0.08 CFS; 30 02 - 0.13 CFS; and Average Flow 0.26 CFS. An onsite inspection will reveal that the flow is most probably greater than that reported, which could be the result of the present development of the site. Concerns: (2) The proposed receiving stream is classified as C-Trout which North Carolina water quality regulations (15 NCAC 2B.0211 (b) (3) (J) that the temperature of, your discharge not cause the instream temperature to differ from background by more than 0.5 degrees Celsius nor exceed 20 degrees Celsius at any time. It is unlikely that the proposed facility can meet this restriction. Answer: The proposed wastewater treatment plant is in a shaded glade at elevation 2950 + feet 800 feet from the point of waste origination; the discharge line which is a force main extends a distance of 4370 feet from the plant to the point of discharge. Based on the fact that the discharge is domestic waste only, in an amount not to exceed 20, 000 g. p. d. ( a reduction in the amount of discharge from 40,000 g. p. d. to 20,000 g. p. d. is requested) ; the distance from. point of origin to the plant is 800 feet passing through soil with an ambient temperature of 58 degrees; will be retained and aerated in a waste treatment plant in a shaded glade at 2950 + feet elevation for a period, of at least l to 2 days, depending on flow, and will then *be conveyed to the point of discharge a distance of 4370 feet through the ground at an ambient temperature of 58 degrees, it is not expected that the discharge will raise the temperature of the receiving stream. Concerns: (3) A pond is located approximately 100 feet downstream of the proposed discharge location. Effluent dominated streams entering ponds typically cause water quality related problems, such as eutrophication (i.e. excess algal growth), or deoxygenation. Answer: There is a pond 1156 feet plus or minus downstream from the proposed discharge point; however, this stream does not feed this pond; infact the pond appears to be fed by storm water or surface water with no stream involved. Immediately below this pond the receiving stream joins with Laurel Branch, a much larger stream. Alternatives: Nitrification Field A traditional septic tank with nitrification field was originally perceived as an alternative to stream discharge. The local County Health Department Sanitarian informed me that a preliminary value of 0.4 GPD/sq. ft. would be a good application rate for estimating the drain field area. Using 200000 GPD as average daily flow, the 0.4 GPD/sq.ft. application rate would require two separate fields of approximately 1.7 acre with an additional equal repair area. This would require approximately 6.8 acre of open area. The land required would probably increase due to the steep cross -slope of the land. Presently, the only open area that is- available for the nitrification field is the driving range (it has not been fully graded or grassed) . The driving range has approximately 4 acres of open area, but is questionable due to rock outcroppings and rock close to the surface (from the water tank soil borings). Preliminary installed cost• estimates of the septic tank and nitrification field are; 20j,000 gal. liquid volume septic tank $ 30, 000. 00 20, 000 gal. pump tank 30, 000. 00 Pumps 5,000.00 16, 660 L. Ft. trench @ $5. 00/ft. 83, 300. 00 Misc. flow boxes 5, 000. 00 TOTAL $153, 300. 00 A yearly maintenance estimate is $1000.00. Spray Irrigation The alternative of spray irrigation was never seriously considered due to frozen ground in winter, limited buffer area, and the steep cross slope of the golf course. Upon checking with your department it was found that there is no such systems in the Winston Salem Office area; the Asheville office did say that they had two (2) systems, I believe, in the Southern Mountain area. The Olde Beau Golf Club Course is on top of the Blue Ridge in the Northern mountains, from the standpoint of temperature and extreme topography which could flow the discharge off of the fairway to the adjacent property, spray irrigation of the effluent would be more than risky. It is possible to discharge on frozen ground in winter• or discharge to the stream in the winter. This is one negative aspect that could feasibly be accomplished. The limit-ed buffer area is definitely a problem combined with the minimal flat areas (ie. 5% to 15% ) on the site. The majority of the golf fairways are on very steep slopes (ie. 25% to 35%) which will not accept spray irrigation. The 100 foot min. buffer area is also questionable with the irrigation system already in -place. The spray heads could feasibly be relocated if necessary, but it is not recommended. Using preliminary values of 0.5 in/week to '0.75 in/week, application rate land area requirement of approximately 11.5 acre to 7. 7 acre of - flat area would be needed. If all of the moderate slope areas could be utilized, there would theoretically be adequate land area for spray irrigation. The problem is 1) re- working the existing irrigation, 2) multiple pump stations, and 3) erosion potential from relocating the existing irrigation system. The Golf Course has been successfully grassed and sodded, we do not desire to dig it up again. Another problem is storage for the treated effluent. The effluent ponds would be located on drainageways of the headwaters of the Mitchell River. The ponds would be constructed with liners, but the possibility of failure exists. A dam failure could lead to a mild contamination of the Mitchell River. Preliminary installed cost estimates of the spray irrigation system area: 20,000 GPD Treatment Plant --Dual Train - $ 60, 000. 00 Holding Ponds - 2 25, 000. 00 Pump Stations - 4 40, 000. 00 Change Irrigation System 20,000.00 Monitoring Wells - 10 10, 000. 00 TOTAL $155, 000. 00 A yearly maintenance estimate is $3000.00. Conclusion The proposed NPDES Discharge Permit is the most feasible wastewater . r y R treatment option. Useable land area for, either of the alternatives is questionable. The proposed discharge is for the Clubhouse only. The original-40,000 GPD will be reduced to 20,000 GPD to go below 50% of the 7a10 flow of 52,000 GPD, which was unknown at the time of submission of the NPDES. Preliminary installed cost for the stream discharge option: 20,000 gal. Treatment Plant - Dual Train $60, 000. 00 Effluent Pump Station 10, 000. 00 3 In. Force Main 20, 000. 00 8 In. Outfall 15, 000. 00 Generator (Standby) 100,000_00 TOTAL $115, 000. 00 The yearly maintenance is estimated at $2000.00. When completed the plant will be operated to the specif icatibns of the NPDES Permit by an experienced private firm, separate from the Olde Beau Golf Club Organization, organized and licensed to provide such services in North Carolina; and all requirements shall be met. Please, give approval to an N. P. D. E. S. Permit for 20, 000 GPD discharge at the requested point of discharge. Yours v y tru , Charles H. Davis, Jr., . E.

Everett, PKD. Director The following is offered regarding your information on the proposed subject NPDES permit: Mr. Satterfield has applied to the Division of Environmental Management (DEM) for an NPDES permit for a 100% domestic wastewater discharge to an unnamed trib- utary to Laurel Branch (a class C-trout stream in Alleghany County). As part of the application for requesting a discharge permit, the applicant must submit an engineering proposal (per Administrative Code 15 NCAC 2H.0105(c)(2)) which summarizes all waste treatment disposal options and demonstrate that "the most environmentally sound alternative was selected from the reasonably cost effec- tive options". The engineering proposal for this facility was incomplete. Only one option for an alternative to discharge was addressed in the proposal. Addi- tional options which should be evaluated include spray irrigation, subsurface disposal, and spray irrigation on the adjacent golf course (seasonally, if not applicable year-round). In addition to the above, Technical Support is concerned with the proposed dis- charge location. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) 7Q10 (lowest flow predicted to occur for 7 days within ten years) flow estimate at this location is 0.08 cfs. This estimate is based on the pre -developed drainage area at the proposed discharge site and flow data from gaging stations on nearby streams. However, these stream flow estimates do not consider changes in the land struc- ture or alterations in stream flow which occurred during development of the Old Beau project. The regional engineers who visited the proposed discharge site reported that the site has been so damaged by sedimentation that it is now a dry ditch. Furthermore, the proposed discharge location is above a small pond (approximately 100 feet), and with an effluent dominated stream entering the pond, problems such as eutrophication, or deoxygenation are predicted to occur. Finally, the proposed discharge may not be able to meet the temperature stan- dards required for designated trout streams. Poltnfion Pr+ewndon Pays P.O.

Peter Rascoe, III Attached please find a copy of the documents I possess regarding Olde Beau's compliance record. As the attached documents indicate, on February 8, 1989, a Superior Court Judge upon Motion for Injunctive Relief by the Department, caused the parties to enter into a Consent Order. Said Order mandated, inter alia, that Olde Beau comply with the provisions of a new e*Osion control plan (Exhibit A. paragraph 1.) Pursuant to a Motion in the Cause, filed by the Department on August 8, 1989, a hearing was held in Superior Court on Olde Beau's alleged violations of the aforementioned February 8, 1989 Consent Order. On September 5, 1989 the Court and found Olde Beau to have been in contempt of said Order in the manner and to the extent set at therein (Exhibit B, p. 12). On October 2, 1989 the Director of the Division of Environmental Management (DEM) levied a civil penalty assessment against Olde Beau in the amount of $36,357.45 for violations of G.S. 143 Article 21. (Exhibit C). Essentially it was assessed for violating the turbidity standard, for discharging without a permit into Laurel Branch and for impairing the best usage of Sam's Branch and the Laurel Branch. I have also enclosed a copy of G.S. 143-215.1(b)(la) which gives DEM the statutory authority to deny a water quality permit to an applicant who has not substantially complied with laws for the protection of the environment (Exhibit D).

Paul Wilms, Director of the Division of Environmental Management, make the following: I. FINDINGS _E FA : A. Olde beau, Ltd. is a domestic corporation, duly organized and doing business in the State of North Carolina (Corporation). The Corporation owns and is developing a residential subdivision and golf course adjacent to U.S. Highway 21 in Allegliany County, North Carolina (site) : The site area being developed included portions around Laurel Branch (classified as Class "C-Trout", waters of the State) and the upper Mitchell River (classified as Class "B-Trout", "Outstanding Resource Waters" of the State). B. The site consists of a total of 865 acres, of which approximately 185 acres has been affected by the Corporation's land -disturbing activities. C. The site sits astride the Eastern Continental Divide, near Roaring Gap, in Alleghany County. Runoff from the southern face of the mountain -ridge, upon which a portion of the site is situated, becomes tributary to Laurel Branch. Runoff from the northern face of the ridge, upon which a portion of the site is situated, becomes tributary to Mitchell River at various watercourses including one known as Sam's Branch. D. The best usages of Laurel Branch, a Class "C-Trout" stream, include fishing , secondary recreation and agriculture. The conditions related to this best usage require that the waters will be suitable for fishing and fish and wildlife propagation. 4 -2- E. The best usages of the Mitchell River, a Class "B-Trout" stream, an outstanding Resources Water of the State provide, inter alia, that the waters contain outstanding fish habitat and fisheries. F. On August 15, 1988 officials from the North Carolina Department of Natural Resources and community Development's (NRCD's) Division of Environmental Management (staff) inspected the site, in response to complaints lodged by downstream property owners. This inspection revealed that Laurel Branch had been adversely impacted with sediment which had originated on the site. G. On November 170 1988, again in response t thatizen complaints, staff inspected the site and observed the Corporation had constructed two (2) dams for he stated sediment purpose of impounding runoff from the site into basins (basins). The bottom drains of each dam were open, and the dams were not impounding any appreciable amount River water. The waters of Laurel Branch and of appeared highly turbid due to off -site sedimentation. Sampling was conducted by staff which revealed the pertinent results: sample i,ocation jurb d t I. Laurel Branch, at its exit from beneath Highway 21 90 2.

Mitchell River, immediately downstream of its confluence with Sam's Branch l00 H. By letter dated November 238 1988 the Secretaryt for action NRCD requested the Attorney General to initiate a against the Corporation, for creation of a public nuisance, to effect the cessation and remediation of off-site sedimentation. This request was made to provide pro on from sedimentation damage. A -3- I. By letter dart December 9, 1988 NRCD's Division of Land Resources ( S) mailed the Corporation a Notice of violation (Noti e) or therein stated violations of the Sedimentation P tion Control Act (Act). Said Notice cited the Corporation for its failure to, inter alia, retain measures sufficient to prevent sediment from eroding into Laurel Branch. J. On February Be 1989 a Consent Judgement (Judgment) was entered into wherein the Corporation was required to implement certain erosion control measures. These measures included the Maintenance of said sediment basins. K. On the dates of June 30, 1989 and July 10, 1989 LQS V officials conducted inspections of the site which rev the that the site was not in compliance with the Acte o provisions of the Judgment, in that virtually all sediment basins were full and no longer functioning to retain sediment. It was apparent that water carrying se was passing through the ineffective sediment basins and was being carried offsite. L. In response to citizen complaints, that the drainage valve to the dam for the lower sediment basin had been staff conducted pen an over the weekend of July 22-23, 1989, inspection of the site on July 24, 1989. M. Staff's July 24, 1989 inspection of the site revealed e eared that vast amounts of sediment were being trap p the drainageway of the basin's dams into Laurel Branch Staff learned that this sediment was being conveyed qh an outlet created by the opening of a drainage valve which caused' the drainage of highly turbid water into Lahich Branch over the two day period of July 23-24, 1989. N . On July 24 , 1989 staff spoke with an official wjade for the Corporation who admitted that a consciofa decision lower basin. to open the drainage valve into the dam O. During the course of its July 24, 1989 inspection staff collected turbidity samples from the Laurel Branch area. Sampling conducted by staff yielded the following pertinent results: Sample Location 1. Laurel Branch, Upstream 1.5 2. Laurel Branch, approximately 25.0 feet downstream of lower dam 300 3. Approximately 35 feet downstream of point Laurel Branch leaves site 660 4. Bridge over Brush Creek 95 Li - 4 -- p. By memorandum dated August 18, 1989 the wildlife Resources Commission (Commission), conveyed the results of their year long study (study) of the trout population in the Laurel Branch and the Mitchell River watersheds. Said study the commission began on or about August 15, 19ee when conducted a fish count of the fish population, to cdmpile baseline data for later comparative purposes. In August, 1989 the Commission revisited the area and conducted a follow-up fish count in the subject area. A comparison of the data collected in 1988, to that in 1989, revealed that the trout population in Laurel Branch had been eliminated as a result of increased off -site sedimentation generated from the site. The Commission concluded that there had been a substantive decline in the trout populations in the affected streams which was attributed to the elimination or reduction of successful reproduction and reduction in the early ing of capacity of the stream to support trout as a r off -site sedimentation from the site. Q. By Memorandum dated August 21, 1989 the Biological Monitoring Group of the water Quality Section (Group) conveyed the results of their year long y of the of increased sedimentation on the stream biota of Laurel Branch and the Upper Mitchell River. The methodology employed in this study included, inte al a, sampling of the populations in each of the two affected watersheds. In August, 1988, the Group collected data on the subject ect populations. This data were used to establish a b condition, against which, data collected from This comparison same watersheds in Auguste, 1989 an the Upper compared. eMitchell River had revealed that Laurel Creek pp suffered. dramatic declines in both the richness and abundance of subject biota. R. On August 8, 1989 the State of North Carolinafiled 1e the "Motion in the Cause in Superior Court Corporation's violation of the Judgment. /10 on September 5, 1989 Superior Court Judge Oder which R. set John ruled upon said Motion and issued a out the following pertinent findings as facts: 45. That Defendant (Corporation) failed, on or about July 25, 1989, to take such reasonable measures, including, but not limited to, removal of the drainage valve wheel or placing a ch i lock on the wheel, as would have prevented an unauthorized opening of the drainage valve. 51. That substantial off -site sedimentation from the Defendant's development site int19gLaurel Branch has occurred since February 61 , i and that said sedimentation has had a significant effect on the abundance and toxa richness of i -5- invertebrate life in the branch as well as on the trout population, and that Laurel Branch has been damaged as a result of said sedimentation. T. Pursuant to its September 5, 1989 Order Superior Court Judge Joseph John also concluded the following, as a matter of law: 57. That Defendant (Corporation) has failed to take all reasonable measures to protect all public and private property from damage caused by "land -disturbing activities" conducted by Defendant on Defendant's development site, and that Defendant has failed to install and maintain erosion control devices and practices as are sufficient to retain sediment generated by the "land -disturbing activity conducted by Defendant at its development site ... and that each such failure ... [is) a significant cause of damage to the Laurel Branch; U. None of the turbidity levels in exceedanc ueft10 NTU in natural the chart at paragraph I.N. above occurred d conditions.. V. The Corporation was mailed a Notice of violation (Notice), for its noncompliance with the Statefs water quality laws and their regulations, which was received on September 20, 1989. W. Staff costs and expenses associated with detecting the violations, defining their nature and extent and bringing the enforcement action totalled $10,357.45. Based upon the above Findings of Fact, I make the following: II. _CONCLUSION Qf : A. Olde Beau, Ltd. is a "person" within the meaning of G.S. 143-215.6 pursuant to G.S. 143-212(4). ,-B.

Is this facility being constructed with Construction Grants Funds (municipals only)? 2. Special monitoring requests: Oil and Grease 3. Additional effluent limits requests: Oil and Grease 4. Other: PART IV - EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that a hard look be taken at this request in light of environmental problems that have been and are still being encountered by this Division from Mr. Satterfield. Once the project is completed who will be responsible for the WWTP? There is a possibility that this project can be put underground but due to the loss of revenue of land that could be sold it has been rejected by the developer. The UT has been severely impacted by sediment run-off. \Olde Beau development owns 2 lakes directly below the outfall from Roaring Gap Lake which makes up the headwaters of Laurel Branch. Because the two lakes on Olde Beau property are too small to fall under the Dam Safety Act, that law can not mandate that the owner meet minimum flow release. The second of the two lakes is to be used for irrigation of the golf course and the draw -down could conceivably exceed the inflow to the lake. Insufficient downstream dilution could result. If a permit should be issued, it should contain a condition requiring at least minimum flow with a flow measuring device at the dam that could be read on site. The requested .040 MGD plant may cause temperatures to increase above the .5 degrees C in the designated trout waters. It is recommended that this Permit be denied. / IJ� 41 • �" k`� `gyp �� LI 6,,8ignature WF—eport preparer 0� � � � c �s Waterkouality Supervisor trey W to Location; Dale: ag Method; -10— Laurel Branch (NEW 1-1-2-4) At SR 11o5 bridge )uly 17. 1981 Electrofishing Physical and Chemical Data Cover; Length: Lens 291 It 14 It ,e Width: ;e Flow: a cfs boulder, rubble, gravel, a Type: sand ffle; hea` Y— moderste—ri ad Sand: pool low ent: Elevation: Water Temperature - PH i µ. 0.

Administrative Code 15 NCAC 2H.0105(c)(2) requires that the engineering report summarize all waste treatment and disposal options and demonstrate that the most environmentally sound of the cost effective options has been selected. Only two options were reviewed; why was spray irrigation to the golf course not an option? Section (c)(7) requires a financial statement and must demonstrate the applicant's previous compliance with federal and state laws, regulations, and rules for protection of the environment. The engineering report states that there have been erosion problems with the project but does not mention the applicant's violations of NC land quality regulations. The applicant has been repeatedly out of compliance and has been fined. He is still out of compliance with land quality and has been fined for water quality violations. The engineering report does not adequately map out the location of the discharge. The map does not correspond to the USGS topographical map. In addition, the site is reported to be so damaged by sedimentation that it is now a dry ditch. Based on this, we cannot have any faith in the the estimated flows listed above. Finally, the stream has been classified as C-Trout. Additional limits including temperature, DO, and, turbidity must be met. The applicant has already violated the turbidity limit. Trout Unlimited has estimated that it will take 15 years for the site to recover by natural means.

The results of the soil borings, along with a Boring Location Diagram, are enclosed with this report. The purpose of this report is to describe the soil and groundwater conditions which were encountered in the test borings, to analyze and evaluate the subsurface data obtained, and to submit recommendations regarding design and construction for the proposed structure. A brief description of the field phase of this investigation, general subsurface conditions encountered, and design recommendations are presented herein. SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION AND SOIL CLASSIFICATION Description of Subsurface Exploration The soil test borings were drilled at the site of the proposed water tank as indicated on the Boring' Location Diagram. As requested, three (3) soil test borings were drilled to maxi- mum depths ranging between 28 feet and 39 feet below the existing grade. The borings were located in the field by our personnel using the existing survey as points of reference. Olde Beau Water Tank Roaring Gap, North Carolina ` August 17, 1989 Page 2 The soil borings were drilled with a truck mounted Mobile. B-47 drilling rig. A description of the methods and procedures used to perform soil sampling and classification are presented below. it Sampling/Classification A six inch hollow stem auger was used to. advance the borehole. Representative soil samples were obtained by means of the split -barrel sampling procedure in general accor- dance with ASTM Specification D-1586. In this procedure, a 2 inch OD, 1 3/8 inch ID, split -barrel sampler is driven into the soil a distance of 18" by means of a 140 pound ham- mer falling 30 inches. The Standard Penetration Resistance Value is the number of blows per foot of penetration for the final 12 inches of driving. This value can be used to provide a qualitative indication of the in -place relative density of cohesionless soils. This indication is qualitative since many factors can significantly affect the Standard Penetration Resis- tance Value and prevent direct correlation between drill crews, drill rigs, drilling proce- dures, and hammer -rod -spoon assemblies. A field log of the soils encountered in the borings was prepared by the drill crew. All soil samples obtained from the drilling operations were sealed immediately in the field and brought to our laboratory for further examination and testing. An experienced geologist classified each soil sample on the basis of texture and plasticity in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System. The group symbols for each soil type are indicated in the parentheses foilowing the soil descriptions on the boring logs. A brief explanation of the .Unified Soil Classification System is included with this report. A soils engineer grouped the various soil types into the major zones noted on the boring logs. The stratification lines designating the interfaces between earth materials on the boring logs and profiles are approximate; in -situ, the contact between material types may be tran- sitional. ENGINEERING TECTONICS, P.A. Olde Beau Water Tank Roaring Gap, North Carolina August 17, 1989 Page 3 The soil samples will be retained in our laboratory for a period of sixty (60) days after the date of this report, after which they will be discarded unless instructions as to their disposi- tion are received. SITE AND SOIL CONDITIONS Site Conditions The proposed Olde Beau Water Tank will be a portion of the on going construction at the site of the Olde Beau Golf Course in Roaring Gap, North Carolina. The project is roughly three-quarters of a mile northeast of State Highway 21. The water tank will be sited on top of a mountain in an area which was heavily wooded prior to current excavation. Site topographic information is not available at this date. Location of Borings The locations of borings relative to the proposed water tank are as shown on the attached Boring Location Diagram (Figure 1). Soil Conditions The borings generally encountered residual soils/saprolite and highly weathered rock. Based on our explorations, typical soil profiles are described below. For soil descriptions at a particular boring location, the respective test boring logs should be reviewed. Logs of the exploratory borings are appended to this report. Residual soils/saprolite were encountered immediately beneath the surface and extend to the full depth of each boring. The residual soils/saprolite have been weathered inplace from +the parent bedrock. The disturbed split -spoon samples of these materials may be generally classified as.firmto very hard; tan, brown, and red; silts or sandy silts which are often micaceous with highly weathered rock fragments in areas (ML). Blow counts within the residual soils/saprolite ranged from 18 blows/ft to 50 blows per 5 inches. ENGINEERING TECTONICS, P.A. Olde Beau Water Tank Roaring Gap, North Carolina August 17, 1989 Page 4 With increasing depths, the relic texture of the parent rock becomes more evident. -and the residual soils become more layered and sandy. Materials having a blow count of 100 blows/ft or more may be generally defined as partially weathered rock. Generally, materials having a blow count of 100 blows/ft can be ripped using a D-8 with a single tooth ripper. Refusal to our drilling equipment typically indicates material that cannot be removed without blasting. Auger refusal was encountered in all three borings ar depths ranging between 28 ft and 39 ft. WATER TABLE CONDITIONS Water level observations were made after completion of drilling operations. In power augering operations, water is not introduced into the boreholes during drilling. Groundwater elevations can often be ascertained by observing water seepage into the boreholes after drilling and the moisture content of recovered samples. The water level ob- servations are noted on the respective boring logs. At the time of drilling, measurable water was not encountered in any of our borings. It should be noted, that dependent on the permeability of the in -place soils, it* could take several days for the groundwater level to stabilize within the borehole. Fluctuations in the location of the long term water table may occur seasonally and are also dependent upon variations in precipitation, evaporation, and surface runoff. For excavations to depths less than the depth of our borings, groundwater is not expected to influence construction at this site. ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Proposed Construction The proposed construction will consist of a 100,000 gallon water tank approximately 30 ft in plan diameter. The proposed tank will be constructed of steel similar to a stand pipe design. The water tank will be supported on a concrete -mat or ring footing with a total load ENGINEERING TECTONICS, P.A. Olde Beau Water Tank Roaring Gap, North Carolina August 17, 1989 Page 5 of approximately 1000 kips. The finish. floor elevation of the water tank also has not been determined at this date, however it is anticipated that the finish elevation will be located at or slightly above the existing grade. Summary of Maicor Foundation Considerations Within the depth of our explorations, foundation conditions at the site generally consist of firm to stiff residual soils/saprolite. The residual soils/saprolite which were encountered appear suitable for support of the proposed water tank. Blow counts within the existing foundation soils were relatively high, averaging over 20 blows/ft for the full depth of our explorations across the site. At the time of drilling, the groundwater table was not encountered in any of the borings and is not expected to influence construction at the site. Foundation Recommendations Based on the conditions encountered, we recommend that the proposed water tank be sup- ported on conventional spread footing foundations bearing within the existing residual soils/saprolite. As a'result of the relatively high blow counts at the boring locations, we sug- gest that the spread footings be designed for an allowable soil bearing pressure of 4000 psf, subject to field inspection and verification as detailed below. The suitability of near -surface soils in foundation areas between borings should be verified by visual inspection and proofrolling, as discussed in detail below. In addition, we suggest that the opened footing excavations be examined for uniformity of soil properties and tested utilizing a Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) to verify design pressures. The in- spection is intended to locate any unexpected soft spots which may require undercutting and backfilling with crushed stone to provide uniform bearing. This inspection should be performed before any reinforcing -steel or concrete is placed. ENGINEERING TECTONICS, P.A. A Olde Beau Water Tank Roaring Gap, North Carolina August 1.7, 1989 Page 6 For ease of construction and to avoid a local shear or "punching " failure of spread footing foundations, minimum footing widths of 24 inches should be used. In order to provide ade- quate frost cover protection, we recommend that all exterior footings be located a mini- mum of 24 inches below the final exterior ground elevation. The prepared foundation bearing soils should not be left exposed during inclement weather. Saturation and subsequent disturbance of these soils can result in a loss of strength and bearing capacity, leading to increased settlement. Proofrollin� The tank site should be proofrolled using a loaded tandem axle dump truck. The proofroll- ing should be performed in order to aid in locating any soft areas within the subsurface. Proofrolling of the exposed surface should consist of four (4) complete passes of the area, with two (2) of the passes in a direction perpendicular to the preceding passes. All proofrolling should be observed by an experienced soils engineer. Any areas which pump or rut should be undercut to firm soil and replaced with engineered fill. GENERAL QUALIFICATIONS This report has been prepared for the purpose of evaluating the.existing subsurface condi- tions and determining design criteria for the proposed Water Tank at Olde Beau Golf Course in Roaring Gap, North Carolina. Tile information and recommendations reported herein are presented to assist in the design of this project. In the event there are any sig- nificant changes in the size, design, or location of the project water tanks, changes in the planned construction from the concepts previously outlined, or changes of! the design parameters stated in this report, the conclusions and recommendations contained in this report shall not be considered valid unless these changes have been reviewed and our con- clusions and recommendations reaffirmed or appropriately modified, in writing. ENGINEERING TECTONICS, P.A. I Olde Beau Water Tank Roaring Gap, North Carolina August 17, 1989 Page 7 There is a possibility that variations in soil conditions will be encountered during construc- tion. In order to permit correlation between the preliminary data and the actual soil condi- tions encountered during construction and to ensure conformance with plans and specifica- tions as originally contemplated, it is recommended that this firm be retained to perform full time on -site construction review during the foundation phase of this project. If there are any questions with regards to the information and recommendations contained in this report, or if we may be of further service to you in any way, please do not hesitate to contact us. Very truly yours, ENGINEERING TECTONICS, P.A. u �• 105. John M. Riley, P.E. President Steve E. Mason, P.G. Senior Geologist JMR/SEM/jg ENGINEERING TECTONICS, P.A. Fm _ General Qualifications ENGINEERING TECTONICS, P.A. -- General Qualifications This report has been prepared in order to aid in the evaluation of this propety and to as- sist the architect and/or engineer in the design of this project. The scope is limited to the specific project and location de.5cribed herein, and our description of the project represents our understanding of the significant aspects relevant to soil and foundation characteristics. In the event that any changes in the design or location of the building(s) as outlined in this report are planned, we should be informed so the changes can be reviewed and the conclusions of this report modified or approved in writing by the soil and foundation engineer. It is recommended that all construction operations dealing with earthwork and foun- dations be inspected by an experienced soil engineer to assure that the design require- ments are fulfilled in the actual construction. if you wish, we would welcome the opportunity to provide these inspection services for you during construction. In addi- tion, we would welcome the opportunity to review the plans and specifications when they have been prepared so that we may have the opportunity of commenting on the effect of soil conditions on the design and specifications. The analysis and recommendations submitted in this report are based upon the data ob- tained from the soil borings performed at the locations indicated on the location dia- gram and from any other information discussed in this report. This report does not reflect any variations which may occur between these borings. In the performance of subsurface investigations, specific information is obtained at specific locations at specif- ic times. However, it is a well-known fact that variations in soil and rock conditions exist on most sites between boring locations and also such situations as groundwater lev- els vary from time to time. The nature and extent of variations may not become evident until the course of construction. If variations then appear evident, it will be necessary for a re-evaluation- of the recommendations of this report after performing on -site observations during the construction period and noting the characteristics of any variations. Because of the possibility of these unanticipated subsurface conditions occurring, we recommend that a "changed condition" clause be provided in the contract both with the general contractor and in contracts with sub -contractors involved in foundation and earthwork construction. It is felt that the inclusion of this clause will permit contractors to give lower prices because they will not need to provide as much in contingencies as they normally would if equitable adjustment of changed conditions will minimize con- flicts and litigation with the attendant delays and costs. Furthermore, by the immedi- ate recognition and adjustment in contract price at the time the changed conditions are encountered, the immense problem of trying to recreate facts when litigation develops later is eliminated. A mediation/arbitration procedure is recommended in the event the owner, contractor and professionals do not agree on the changed conditions at the moment they are disclosed. If you wish, we would be pleased to furnish additional information pertaining to this procedure. General Notes ENGINEERING TECTONICS, P.A.
