This General Permit covers STORMWATER AND/OR WASTEWATER DISCHARGES associated with activities under
SIC(Standard Industrial Classification)Code 14[Mineral Mining Industry]except for:peat mining, coal mining,
metal mining, oil and gas extraction, tourist gem mines, NCDOT borrow pits, in-stream sand mining, and
discharges from mining operations which are intermixed on site with stormwater from concrete operations. You
can find information on the DEMLR Stormwater Program at deq.nc.gov/SW.
Directions: Print or type all entries on this application. Send the original, signed application with all required
items listed in Item (9) below to: NCDEMLR Stormwater Program, 1612 MSC, Raleigh, NC 27699-1612. The
submission of this application does not guarantee coverage under the General Permit. Prior to coverage under
this General Permit a site inspection will be conducted.

NCG020000 NOTICE OF INTENT
TRIPPLE A MINE
CRAVEN COUNTY
This is a proposal to dewater the surface workings of a sand mine located at the
headwaters of a small branch off Swift Creek.
This sand has a very low content of silt with no detectable clay. The sand is evenly
graded with a very high percolation rate, in excess of 20 inches per hour according to the
USDA Soil Conservation Service. This makes dewatering by pumping off site the only
practical method of lowering the surface water table in order to excavate sand.
Water travels from the pump located in the mine pit(excavation) by pipe and then a
ditch into a settling basin, then across a level spreader and then into wetlands which feed
the branch,then into Swift Creek.
Best storm water management practices are achieved by surface water from disturbed
areas being directed into the mine excavation which is the first settling pond. Because of
the high permeability of these sands, rainwater rarely arrives at the pit.
The significant source of water at this site is ground water which accumulates in the mine
pit. There is no surface or off site source of water other than rain. Treatment of pumped
water consists of settling in the pit and then in the settling basin prior to crossing the level
spreader and flowing into the wetlands.
There are no ditches or streams flowing into or across this 80 acre tract of land. Wetlands
located inside this 80 acre tract are the headwaters of the branch flowing into Swift
Creek. There are no ditches or swales collecting flowing water in the areas being mined.
Rainwater percolates into the ground.
Corps of Engineers wetlands were delineated and are shown on the mine mapys which Ire
a part of this notice. There are isolated wetlands on this property. Wetl tectiyd
by a 50 foot wide undisturbed buffer. Consideration is being given to mio72tpd
wetlands after consultation with State and Federal authorities t 4 ..
