Mr. Houston,
Mr. Tim Stewart with your firm indicated to me this afternoon that you are handling this project since David Bunn's
departure from Parker & Associates, Inc. Based my site visit on April 4, 2019, the NC Division of Water Resources is
satisfied with the wetlands restoration work per our NOV 2018 -PC -0449 to the developer issued on November 28, 2018.
Thanks and feel free to let me know if you have any questions.

Robb,
This email is in response to your email dated 2/08/2019. I have itemized it for clarity.
1. Morton Trucking is using a simple process to remove the sediment from the wetlands with the vacuum truck. They are
working in the wetlands with buckets and shovels to create piles of the excess sediment. They are then adding the
minimum amount of water necessary to these piles to soften the sediment so the truck can vacuum it up. Please keep in
mind that the truck vacuums up both the sediment and the water that is added to the sediment.
The vacuum truck holds 10 cubic yards at max capacity. Typically, the sediment to water ratio has been about 70%
sediment to 30% water (-600 gallons) when the truck is emptied. Also keep in mind that the truck is vacuuming up extra
water from the large amounts of groundwater that is in the area. This extra groundwater is approximately 50% of the
30% mentioned above (-300 gallons).
3. Morton Trucking is using a hydrant meter to obtain water from a fire hydrant on site. This is the water that is being used
with the truck to help soften the piles of sediment that are in the wetlands. It is estimated that the truck uses
approximately 300-400 gallons of water per load (approximately 50% of the water that is dumped). There is very little
excess water with this process, but Morton Trucking has installed silt fence around the impacted area to help prevent
turbid water from leaving the area. Although the water inside of the impacted area is very turbid (as can be expected
when removing sediment from the wetlands), there appears to be very little downstream of the impacted area. As you
can see from the pictures I took on 2/06/19 of where the pump truck was being used, there is very little turbid water
downstream of the impacted area.
4. Morton Trucking estimates approximately 100 cubic yards (2700 cubic feet) has been removed from Impact #4 to date.
They have also moved the dumpsite back closer to Peyton Mine. All of the sediment that had been dumped on Lot 238
has been removed.
5. This methodology is only anticipated to be needed in Impact Areas #3 and #4 as these are the two major impacted areas.
It is anticipated that in all other areas hand labor will be used. If the need for a vacuum truck arises in any other area,
you will be contacted.
Please give me a call if you need any additional information or if you have any questions.
Thanks,
David A. Bunn

Hey David,
This follows your letter dated December 21, 2018 in response to our November 28, 2018 Notice of
Violation to Onslow Development Group, LLC (NOV 2018 -PC -0449), which remains under a Notice of
Continuing Violation. This also follows your email on February 4, 2019, and our phone conversation on
February 7, 2019 following my site visit with Holley Snider on February 6, 2019. As discussed, we have
concerns on the amount of turbid water leaving the site, which was evident during our site visit on
February 6, 2019. The turbid water appeared to be associated with the use of the vacuum truck for the
current restoration of the impacted wetlands adjacent to Lot 275 Peyton Lake Subdivision (Sediment
Impact #4). You indicated that the designated unloading area for the vacuum truck is at the amenity
lake site currently under construction, however, due to rain events earlier this week the vacuum truck
was unable to access this location, and was deposited onto Lot 238.
During our phone conversation, we indicated that the amount of water needed to facilitate the removal
of the sediment was never addressed, and we were told that the contractor indicated there was
adequate water in the sediment for the vacuum truck to work. At this time, we are requesting the
methodology of how the vacuum truck works; this information, which should include the total volume
capacity of the truck, broken out into amount of sediment and water retrieved. We would also request
to know the amount of water necessary to vacuum the sediment, and if this is being brought in
separately or if on-site water is adequate and how the excess water is being managed. We are also
requesting clarification of the unloading/emptying location of the truck and an update on the total
amount of sediment that has been removed to date. Please include any BMPs that can be implemented
to address turbidity concerns such as incorporation the use of turbidity bags, flocculants, etc. Further,
please clarify if this methodology will also be used for the wetland restoration adjacent to Lots 228, 237
and 238 (Sediment Impacts #2 and #3) .
Please provided this requested information/update within one week from receipt of this
email. Furthermore, the DWR accepts your request to extend the timeframe of an additional 60 days to
remove the sediment from the impacted wetland areas as stated in your February 4, 2019 email.
Thanks again for your assistance and feel free to let me know if you have any questions.

Ms. Snider,
This email is in response to your "Letter of Approval with Modifications and Performance Reservations"
for Peyton's Ridge, Section VI (Project ID: ONSLO-2014-020) dated February 2, 2019. Response to Item
#2 under the "Modifications and Performance Reservations" is as follows:
I have gotten in touch with Mr. Morton about the competition of Peyton Mine, and he feels they are still
several months away from completing the mine. Our best estimate is between six months to one year
before the mine is completed.
Also, Ms. Ward has already begun sediment removal in Impact Area #3 and #4. She believes with the
help of the vacuum truck, the majority of the sediment removal could be completed in approximately
two weeks. If the vacuum truck does not work as planned, we estimate approximately 60 days for the
majority of the sediment removal to be completed.
If you need any further information, please let me know.
Thanks,
