The results of his review are detailed below. As we understand it: East Forsyth Quarry, NCG020115: You are requesting ROS for SDO 003 to be represented by SDO 005. North Quarry, NCG020082: You are requesting ROS for SDOs 004,-005, 006, and 007, to be represented by SDO 003. Based on the information and maps provided, as well as information gleaned from the December, 2010, compliance evaluation inspections, we hereby approve both of these requests. In accordance with 40 CFR §122.21(g)(7), you are authorized to sample SDO 005 as representative of SDO 003 at the East Forsyth Quarry, and SDO 003 as representative of SDOs 004, 005, 006, and 007, at the North Quarry. This approval is effective with the next sampling event. Please note that all other SDOs not expressly mentioned in this letter must still be sampled as required by the permit, i.e. SDOs 001, 002, and 004 for the East Forsyth Quarry. You are reminded that VMC is still required to conduct Qualitative Monitoring (QM) at all SDOs at both quarrys, regardless of ROS. Also, please remember that any actions you initiate in response to benchmark exceedences, as directed in the tiered response provisions of your permit, must address all drainage areas represented by the representative outfall, where appropriate.

If changes in drainage areas, structures, processes, storage practices, or other activities occur that significantly alter the basis of this approval, ROS may no longer be valid. You should either resume sampling at all SDOs, or reapply to this office for new ROS based on the updated information. Finally, although we have approved ROS for both sites using this single letter, DWQ considers each site completely independent of the other. Therefore, occurrences or activities that occur at one site, generally do NOT affect the other. If you have any questions or comments concerning this letter, please contact Mr. Boone at (336) 771-4967 or at ron.boone@ncdenr.gov. Sincerely, W.

Mine dewatering and/or discharges of process wastewater, including commingled stormwater. Stormwater discharges from other plant areas where the stormwater has contacted areas directly related land disturbance and process areas.. Stormwater discharges from on -site vehicle maintenance areas. 5.1 Process Water and Stormwater Sampling/Analysis Program Refer to Table 1 for required sample frequency and analytical parameters. There are four appropriate sampling locations at the East Forsyth Quarry which will be used to sample various process water and stormwater discharges. Each outfall to be sampled is listed below along with a brief description of each outfall's type of discharge. Representative Outfalls to be Sampled: Outfall Latitude / Receiving Outfall Type Source of Discharge No. Longitude Stream 111-001 36001'36"/ Cuddybum Commingled Mine pit dewatering 80'04'23" Branch to Process Water & Abbotts and Stormwater 36°01'35"/ Creek 80 *04' 18" 111-002 36*01'40"/ Cuddybum Stormwater Stormwater associated with industrial 80*04'17" Branch to activity. This sample location is Abbotts representative of all discharges from Creek stripping and overburden storage areas 111-004 36°01'45"/ Cuddybum On Site Stormwater associated with industrial 80'04' 13" Branch to Maintenance activity. This sample location is Abbotts Stormwater representative of all discharges from Creek maintenance shop, equipment parking and yard activities. '111-005 36001'38"/ Cuddybum Stormwater Stormwater associated with industrial 80*04'16" Branch to activity. This sample location is Abbotts representative of all discharges from plant Creek and material stockpile areas. Notes. There are a total of five discharge points (4 Stormwater, 1 process water) at the East Forsyth Quarry site. Mine dewatering flows and runoff from yawl and process areas which drain to the pit are pumped to two holding ponds which, occasionally discharge at Outfall 111-001 in wet weather. All vehicle maintenance activities (shop area) drain along the north edge of the property and discharge at outfall 111-004. Outfall 111-002, is the discharge point for the runoff from land disturbing activities at the current overburden disposal area, and Outfall 111-005 is the representative discharge point for runoff from the majority of plant and material stockpile areas. Outfall 003 also controls a small portion of the material stockpile areas. Old outfall notes: Stormwater outfalls have been renamed since prior plan. Stormwater from old outfalls 002 and 005 has been routed to current outfall 111-002 (old #003). Several anticipated future outfalls were never developed, and some areas were reclaimed and are no longer disturbed. The following table summarizes the total additional outfalls at this site which will not require sampling. The abovementioned outfalls that will be sampled have been linked to the following outfalls based on the overall type of discharge each additional outfall will represent. All outfall locations are indicated on the partial mine map in Appendix I. Documentation of representative outfall status should be kept on site within the Mineral Mining Plan. Remaining Outfalls (not to be sampled): Outfall Latitude 1 Receiving Outfall Source of Discharge Corresponding No. Longitude Stream Type Representative Outfall* 111-003 36°01'45"/ Cuddybum Stormwater Stormwater associated with industrial 111-005 80004'15" Branch to activity. This location receives Abbotts discharges from a small portion of the Creek material stockpile area. *Listed representative outfall is the appropriate sample point designated for that type of discharge; no grab sample needs to be taken for these additional listed outfalls. i 1 r, EXISTING SETTLING PONDS/ r FUTURE OVERBURDEN STORAC 1 1 V y 1 1 I EXISTMG 1 OURD 5 APPRO ST RAGE DRAiNAG U -00 C) T goo `. 8j EDIAIENT BASIN" M T RIAt OING CRAP ATN)N VARIES 4B5 1 � e � EXISTING PROCESS 8 � STOCKPILE AREA/ EUTURE/`fQ WE\Q �ASTJ QUARRY EXCAVATION LL o11-005 L b i APPROX.

Stormwater and wastewater related to mining activity is discharged to Cuddybum Branch, which is classified as Class WS-111 waters in the Yadkin River Basin. Documentation & Monitorincl Review 3. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SP3) is complete but has not yet been fully implemented. The stormwater discharge outfalls (SDO) have not yet been certified, there is insufficient stormwater related employee training and documentation thereof and there is no record of the SP3 annual review. Please make it a high priority to complete the entire plan within the next couple of months. 4. All required analytical monitoring (AM) and qualitative monitoring (QM) has been conducted as required except QM of SDO 004. Please begin this monitoring as soon as possible and review the permit in detail with Mr. Viers and Mr. Locust to ensure they fully understand all monitoring sampling requirements.

Mr. Boone reports that the site was quite clean and well maintained. All above ground storage tanks are double -walled. The only problem noted was on the fuel tank. It is a double -walled tank with a small drain line on the corner. It does not have a locking mechanism. Please review the secondary containment portion of the permit and add the necessary components to all such tanks to make them compliant with permit requirements. All tanks appeared to be in excellent condition and no signs of spillage were noted. Please ensure that the site's SP3 and monitoring plans continue to change along with any physical changes at the site. 6. You are reminded that violations of the NCG020000 general permit are subject to civil penalty assessments not to exceed $25,000 per day, per violation. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

Please review the new permit to familiarize yourself with all the changes in the reissued permit. if your Certificate of Coverage (COC) restricts authorization to discharge stormwater only (or other limited terms) based on your original application, or subsequent modifications to your COC, you must continue to meet these requirements -or contact the Stormwater Permitting Unit to request a modification of this renewal COC. The more significant changes in the General Permit since your last Certificate of Coverage include the following: Part II: • Section B — Language referencing PAMS has been changed. Flocculants may now be used if evaluated by the Division and administered in accordance with maximum application doses and other requirements. Part III: • Section A — The permit now requires a Stormwater Pollution and Prevention Plan (SPPP) tailored to the mining industry, in lieu of a Stormwater BMP Plan. • Section A - Inactive mines may be inspected on a reduced schedule: at least once per month and after 0.5" (or more) of rain. To qualify, inactive mines must possess an "Inactive Renewal' from DLR or certify to DWQ the site has been stabilized. The permittee must notify the DWQ Regional Office of inactive status. Discharges from inactive mines must still be monitored on the same schedule as active mines.

(The previous cut-off concentrations have been removed.) • Section B — Revised provisions require the permittee to execute Tier One, Tier Two & Tier Three response actions, based on the first benchmark exceedence (Tier One) and the second consecutive benchmark exceedence (Tier Two). Tier Two requires that the permittee institute monthly monitoring (reported to the appropriate Regional Offices) instead of twice -per -year monitoring. Monthly monitoring shall be done until three consecutive monitoring events show no benchmark exceedences. • Section B — This part contains a new provision that four exceedences of any benchmark will trigger increased DWQ involvement in the permittee's stormwater management and control actions, DWQ may direct the permittee to apply for an individual permit, institute specific monitoring, or may direct the implementation or installation of specific stormwater control measures. • Section B — The definition of "Representative Storm Event" (RSE) now allows 48 hours (instead of 72 hours) of little or no precipitation to precede an RSE. • Section B — Stormwater discharges from a basin designed to contain the 10-year storm must now be monitored. • Sections B & C — Failure to monitor according to permit terms triggers monthly monitoring for the remainder_ of the permit. • Section C — Analytical monitoring for Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) has replaced the Oil & Grease parameter in the previous permit. • Section D — Qualitative monitoring must now be conducted during the same representative storm event as the analytical monitoring. • Section D — The permittee is required to keep a written record of his response to problems identified by his qualitative monitoring observations. • Section D — If the permittee fails to respond effectively to problems identified by qualitative monitoring, the permittee may be required by DWQ to perform corrective action. • Section D — Qualitative ROS: Representative Outfall Status may be granted for qualitative monitoring for some Stormwater Discharge Outfalls (SDOs). • Section D — If mines do not respond to problems seen in visual monitoring, DWQ may now require that mines change the monitoring frequency, apply for an individual permit, implement in -stream monitoring, install or modify structural stormwater controls, or implement other controls. • Sections B, C, & D — Inability to sample due to adverse weather must be reported in the SPPP and ' recorded in the Annual Summary DMR. • Section E — A lower TSS Wastewater limit for PNA waters is included in the permit. • Section E — All mining operations are now required to monitor TSS in wastewater effluent discharges (not only industrial sand mines). However, TSS limits only apply to industrial sand mining operations. • Section E — Turbidity limits on effluent discharges have been removed; however, turbidity standards still apply in the receiving waters. • Section E — Approval of a Pumping O&M Plan may be required prior to coverage (for sites with dewatering activities that have the potential to drain wetlands or other surface waters). • Section E — ATC Requirements have been changed for clarity. These requirements are now outlined for Mine Dewatering Wastewater, Process Wastewater, Overflow From Non -Closed -Loop Process Recycle Wastewater Systems, and Overflow From A Closed -Loop Process Recycle (CLPR). • Section E — Monitoring for Fecal colfforms in discharges to SA waters has been clarified. Fecal coliform monitoring is now required for all process and mine dewatering wastewater discharges to SA waters. Part IV: • Section E — Items 1. and 2. require submittal of a new reporting form: the Annual Summary DMR. This annual summary of the anal tics! monitoring results should be submitted to the DWQ Central Office by March 1 of each year. • Section E — Exceedences and violations must be sent to the appropriate DWQ Regional Office within 30 days of receipt from the lab. • Section E — Results of "No Flow" or "No Discharge" must be recorded within 30 days from the sampling period in the SPPP. "No flow" or "No Discharge" must also be reported on the Annual Summary DMR form.
