Phillip,
Thank you for sending this information and advising DEQ of the need to discharge from these quarries. These sites may
proceed with dewatering but must follow the conditions and sampling requirements for dewatering WW required under
the NCG020000 General Permit. These conditions include not allowing discharges to cause or contribute to Water
Quality Standard violations. If you have any further questions, please let us know.
Best regards,
Bethany Georgoulias

Hi Bethany,
Thank you for calling me back. As of now, we have significant water in the following quarries:
• Belgrade (NCG020005, White Oak River)
• Benson (NCG020123, Stony Fork)
• Castle Hayne (NCG020010, Northeast Cape Fear River)
• Clarks (NCG020171, Caswell Branch)
• Cumberland (NCG020676, Lower Little River)
• Lemon Springs (NCG020094, Mullatto Branch)

• Onslow (NCG020255, unnamed tributary to the New River)
• Rocky Point (NCG020166, Northeast Cape Fear River)
We are working to find additional pumps to lower the water level, but we do not yet have pumping rates or expected
commencement of increased pumping. Please let me know what else you need from us.
Thanks for helping us get this taken care of,
Phillip
