MAR 17 2R03
We visited the Malco Mine on March 10, 2003 and met with Mr. Robert Stewart (Performance
Engineering) and Mr. Gary Thompson (TR Equipment Company). There have been concerns expressed
by adjacent property owners about the operation of the mine affecting their water quantity and water
quality in their private wells. We made a thorough physical survey of the mine locale and of neighboring
properties. We also had conversations with two adjacent property owners. Summarized below are our
comments and conclusions.
1. Water quality issues seem to stem from poorly designed wells and lack of water
filtration/purification systems. Iron staining and sediment in the well water attest to the poor
quality of the water in the aquifer and/or improper well construction. A filtration device
connected to home plumbing would remedy this. The mine has no impact on this issue. No
well heads are visible above land surface. These homeowner wells are probably in violation of
the NC Well Construction Standards.
2. Water quantity issues were discussed with the homeowners. Nothing homeowners spoke of
suggested that they lack well water. Our calculations indicate dewatering of the mine (to the
permitted 25 feet) over the course of a week would affect water levels less than an inch, 400
feet from the edge of the pit (neighboring wells are over 500 feet from the pit now).
3. There seems to be a noise concern for some homeowners. The main culprit is the pump that is
used to dewater the pit. This equipment does not operate constantly. The mine operator, Mr.

Phone: [phone] FAX: [phone] Internet: www.ncwater.org
An Equal Opportunity -Affirmative Action Employer-50% Recycled\] 0% Post Consumer Paper

Thompson, has tried to address this problem by lowering the pump into an excavated hole to
dampen the noise.
4. Neighbors complained that some trees were dying because of low water levels stemming from
the mining activity. Last year, 2002, was an extremely dry year. Drought issues affected the
majority of North Carolina. It is more likelythat the drought played a role in trees dyinal.
There are many trees that are closer to the mine that seem unaffected.
The concerns expressed by adjacent property owners have no relation'to the mining activities other than
the noise issue. We defer to the Division of Land Resources on that matter. Our findings indicate that the
Malco Mine dewatering is operating within the guidelines of their permit and any water related issues at
this time are a consequence of the quality of the `aquifer water and construction of wells.

Subject: Pump and Monitoring Plan
Malco Mine
NPDES Permit No. NCG020361
Mining Permit No. 27-39
Currituck County
Please find attached the Pump and Monitoring Plan for the Malco Mine. Richard Peed and
myself met with Bob Stewart, Performance Engineering, and Gary Thompson, TR Equipment, at
the site to discuss pump and monitoring options. The old mine is approximately four acres and
has been mined to twenty-five feet in depth. They proposed to dewater to fifty feet and have
agreed to back off of that depth to protect wetlands. They now proposed to dewater to the
present twenty-five feet and wet mine to fifty feet. While doing this, they will dewater into a
sediment basin located up gradient of the wetland and let the water sheet flow over four weirs
into the wetland. After discussing with Deborah Sawyer and Richard Feed, we feel that this will
protect the wetlands in question.
This office recommends that the Pump and Monitoring Plan be approved as is. This office does
not recommend any monitoring wells on site because the wetlands are located in a Swale and the
water discharged from the mine will keep the wetlands recharged..

Dear Mr. Tankard,
I am writing pursuant to the on,site meeting held on March 5, 2002; w_ hich was attended
by you, Mr. Richard Peed of the Division of Land Quality, the'permittee, Mr. Gary Thompson .
and myself. Both Mr: Thompson and 1 appreciate the time expended by youand Mr: Peed to help.
us work through the process of getting Mr. Thompson's Permit Modification Application
processed. Our conversation resulted in several understandingswhich are summarized as follows:
A. Mr. Thompson'agreed to revise -his modification request so that de -watering will be limited to
the currently approved 25'. The excavation limits will still -be expanded to 50', but all mining
below 25' will be done wet. Please note that Mr. Thompson has co .ducted,de-watering to a
depth of 25' since ,l 996. in that period, there has been no apparent degradation of the adjacent
wetlands.
B. The currently approved de-watering."trough"will be eliminated in favor of a larger de -
watering discharge basin. This basin will have a surface area of 20' X 140', with'a 10'.wide flat
bottom width. The attached Plan Sheetl of l .provides numerous details illustrating the proposed
,discharge basin. The basin will have -a 50''long settling zone and discharge from the basin will:be
via'four, 4' wide weirs, located 18'-apart. On the downstream side of the weirs, a 40 SF apron of
erosion control stone with filter cloth will be provided as an energy dissipater and erosion -
.inhibitor. As we observed in the field, the slope'from the basin location to the adjacent wetlands
is approximately 10% or less. The water. discharging through the'weirs, with the spacing .
provided, will facilitate sheet flow which will'serve to -recharge the wetlands and mitigate (if not
totally compensate).for any impacts of the de -watering operation.
C. The pumps will be operated as necessaryto allow dry mining 'to -a depth of 25'-and wet mining
to the design depth'of 50'. Material will be. stockpiled during the de -watering period.' After ample
quantities of material -are stockpiled, the pumps will be turned.off and the'mine allowed to refill.
This cyclical process will be the typical operational procedure.

Dear Mr. Thompson:
With the requested modification to your mining permit, you proposed to add an
additional 2.43 acres to your mine and also proposed to dry mine to fifty feet. During my site
inspection of the proposed mine, I saw wetlands that were adjacent to your mine site. With this
modification of your mining permit, you are now required.to meet NPDES Permit condition
Section C, Item 1. This condition requires an "Operation and Monitoring Plan" when
dewatering activities at a mine have the potential to drain wetlands.
Prior to mining in the new areas, you must first have this Operation and Monitoring Plan
approved by the Division. If you should have any questions concerning this, please contact me
at [phone] ext. 233.

Re: Malco Mine, Permit No. 27-39, permit modification request. Engineer's Project No. 207.
Dear Mr. Davis,
I am writing to request a modification to my currently existing mine permit No. 27-39.
The modification requested consists of a 2.43 acre expansion of the mine -and authorization to
deepen the mine from the currently permitted 25' to a new depth of 50'. Enclosed, you will find
the application package associated with the modification request. The letter of transmittal
enumerates the constituents of the submittal package. The requirement for a mine map has been
satisfied by the inclusion of two separate plats. One is a survey prepared by Stroud Engineering,
PA which provides an overall view of the mine and surrounding areas. This map illustrates the
relationship of the haul road/access easement to the mine and to SR 1101 (Griggs Acres Road).
It. is also the map which has been used previously for the original mine application as well as two
previous modification -requests. Therefore; I felt -it would be helpful to include this with the -
application package. -Secondly, a plat has been prepared by Performance Engineering which
provides a V equals 50' scale mine map. This mine map illustrates the existing condition of the
mine with respect. to actively mined areas, the extent of open water and the side slopes which have
been graded and seeded in their final configuration. The mine -map also illustrates the extent of
the requested expansion. Details have been provided for erosion control measures and the
dewatering facility. Hopefully, by providing both of these maps you and other review individuals
can obtain a very clear understanding of what is existing and what is being proposed. The
requirements for-USGS Quad Sheets, County tax maps and NCDOT County highway maps have
beer. -a ,sed by...providing excerpts :,f the aforerrientioned three items. As Mr. Bob Stewart of
Performance Engineering discussed with you by telephone, we felt that the information contained
on the excerpts is sufficient and providing the entire maps would be cumbersome and of no added
value.
With respect to how this modification request will not invoke any of the seven denial
criteria as set forth in G.S. 74-51 of the Mining Act of 1971, I submit the following:

Page 2 of 2, letter to Mr. Tracy E. Davis, dated 11/3/01, re: Malco Mine.
1. To my knowledge, nothing in the proposed modification will violate any rule promulgated
under the act.
2. I have no reason to believe that any adverse impacts to potable ground water supplies, wildlife,
freshwater, estuaries or marine fisheries will result from the proposed modification_ The
operation entails only dewatering freshwater into a existing wetlands slew with approximately
1,000' available for filtration between the dewatering discharge point and the open waters of the
Albemarle Sound,
3. Regarding air quality, surface water quality and groundwater quality, again the nature of the
operation is such that there are no anticipated compromising of any of the concerns fisted above.
The haul road is consistently wetted to minimize dust from the trucks entering and leaving the
mine area. No pollutants or sedimentation results from the operation of this sand mine. Mr.
Stewart has been in touch with Mr. Nat Wilson, PG of the Division of Water Resources. He has
provided Mr. Wilson with technical information regarding the dewatering pump and its operation.
Mr. Wilson has indicated that he may require periodic monitoring of the salinity levelsin. the mine
lake to insure that there are no adverse impacts to any potable water wells in the surrounding
area. I am prepared to initiate and continue this monitoring at your direction.
4. Gven the isolated location of the mine and the fact that it is buffered by a heavily wooded area
in the direction of the nearest residences (and'one church), I feel there is no threat to public health
and safety resulting from the existing mine or the proposed expansion.
5. There are no publicly owned park, forests or recreation areas in the Point Harbor area.
6. The mine has been operated for approximately seven years with no occurrences of
sedimentation, landslides or acid water pollution. Nothing in the proposed modification will
increase the probability of any such occurrences.
7. I have operated the existing mine for seven years with no violations, permit revocations, bond
forfeitures or other legal incidences.
Hopefully, you will find my submittal package complete and easy to review. If you have
any questions or concerns regarding any aspects of this modification request, please contact me at
252491-2128 or Bob Stewart at Performance Engineering at 252-491-8354
(e-mail: [e-mail]). Mr. Stewart is typically available during normal working hours to
assist me in addressing your questions or concerns. Thank you very much for your attention to
this matter.
Sincerely,

is

Page 2 of 2, letter to Mr. Tracy E. Davis, dated 11/3/01, re: Malco Mine,
1. To my knowledge, nothing in the proposed modification will violate any rule promulgated
under the act.
2. I have no reason to believe that any adverse impacts to potable ground water supplies, wildlife,
freshwater, estuaries or marine fisheries will result from the proposed modification. The
operation entails only dewatering freshwater into a existing wetlands slew with approximately
1,000' available for filtration between the dewatering discharge point and the open waters of the
Albemarle Sound.
3. Regarding air quality, surface water quality and groundwater quality, again the nature of the
operation is such that there are no anticipated compromising of any of the concerns listed above.
The haul road is consistently wetted to minimize dust from the trucks entering and leaving the
mine area. No pollutants or sedimentation results from the operation of this sand mine. Mr.
Stewart has been in touch with Mr. Nat Wilson, PG of the Division of Water Resources. He has
provided Mr. Wilson with technical information regarding the dewatering pump and its operation.
Mr. Wilson has indicated that he may require periodic monitoring of the salinity levels in the mine
lake to insure that there are no adverse impacts to any potable water wells in the surrounding
area. I am prepared to initiate and continue this monitoring at your direction.
4. Given the isolated location of the mine and the fact that it is buffered by a heavily wooded area
in the direction of the nearest residences (and'one church), I feel there is no threat to public health
and safety resulting from the existing mine or the proposed expansion.
5. There are no publicly owned park., forests or recreation areas in the Point Harbor area. -
6. The mine has been operated for approximately seven years with no occurrences of
sedimentation, landslides or acid water pollution. Nothing in the proposed modification will
increase the probability of any such occurrences. -
7. I have operated the existing nine for seven years with no violations, permit revocations, bond
forfeitures or other legal incidences.
Hopefully, you will find my submittal package complete and easy to review. If you have
any questions or concerns regarding any aspects of this modification request, please contact me at
252491-2128 or Bob -Stewart at Performance Engineeringat 252-491-8354
(e-mail: [e-mail]). Mr. Stewart is typically available during normal working hours to
assist me in addressing your questions or concerns. -Thank you very much for -your attention to,
this matter.

Re: Malco Mine, Permit No. 27-39, permit modification request. Engineer's Project No. 207.
Dear Mr. Davis,
I am writing to request a modification to my currently existing mine permit No. 27-39.
The modification requested consists of a 2.43 acre expansion of the mine and authorization to
_ - deepen the mine from the currently permitted 25' to a new depth of 50'. Enclosed, you will find
-the application package associated with the modification request. The letter of transmittal
enumerates the constituents of the submittal package. The requirement for a mine map has been
satisfied by the inclusion of two separate plats.- One is a survey prepared by Stroud Engineering,
PA which provides an overall view of the mine and surrounding areas. - This map illustrates the
relationship of the haul. roadlaccess easement to the mine and to SR 1101' (Eggs Acres Road).
It.is.also.the map;which has been used previously For the original mine application as well as two
.previous modification -requests:- Therefore; I felt -it would be helpful to,include this with the"
application package. _Secondly, a plat has been -prepared by Performance Engineering which
provides -a 1 " equals 50' scale mine map. This mine map illustrates the existing condition of.the
mine with respect.. to.actively mined areas, the extent of open water and than side slopes which have
been graded and seeded,in their final configuration. • The mine -map also illustrates the extent of -
the -requested expansion. Details have been provided -for erosion control measures and the
_ dewatering facility. Hopefully, by providing both of these maps you and other review individuals°
can obtain a very clear understanding of what is existing and what is being proposed. -The .
requirements for.USGS Quad -Sheets, County tax raps and NCDOT County -highway maps have

Performance Engineering discussed with you by telephone, we felt that the information contained on _the excerpts is sufficient and providing the -entire maps- would be cumbersome and of no added
value.
With respect to how this modification request will not invoke any of the seven denial
criteria as set -forth in G.S. 74-51 of the Mining Act of 1971, 1 submit the following:

Re: Malco Mine, Permit No. 27-39 Minor Modification Request
Dear Ms. Wehner,
APR 09 2013
)UAL1T-Y-SEGTIY -
APR 15 2013
ECTIOrJ
lAr3t� l�tJ�;` IONA.4` r
I am writing to make application for a modification to my existing permit, No. 27-39. The
modification entails the addition of 4.1 acres mine area, including the required buffer. Also,
involved are haul roads and existing irrigation pond which will be incorporated as a settling
basin. The existing excavated area will also be used as a settling basin.
With respect to how this modification request will not evoke any of the seven denial criteria as
set forth in G.S. 74-51 of the Mining Act of 1971,1 submit the following:
1. To my knowledge, nothing in this proposed modification will violate any rule
promulgated under the Act.
02,I have no reason to believe that any adverse impacts to potable ground water supplies,
wildlife, freshwater, estuaries or marine fisheries will result from the proposed
modification. The operation only entails dewaterin r fresh water into an existing wetlands
slew with approximately 1,000' available for filtration between the dewatering discharge
point and the open waters of the Albemarle Sound.
Regarding air quality, sur ace water quality and ground water quality, again the nature of
the operation is such that there are no anticipated adverse impacts. The haul road is
consistently wetted to minimize dust and the trucks are covered when traveling fill. The
proposed Phase 2 excavation area is located farther from any existing residences or other
habitable structures than existing Phase i of the excavation site. There have been no
indications of adverse impacts to surface or ground water resulting from the on -going
operation of the mine.
4. In light of the isolated nature of the mine site and the imposition of a "no trespassing'
order by the property owner, I feel there is no threat to public health and safety resulting
from existing mine or the proposed expansion

5. There are no publicly owned forests located in the area. Currituck County has a publicly
owned park and recreation area located 2,100' on the North side of US Hwy 158, on the
Currituck Sound.
6. The mine has been operational for nineteen years with no occurrences of sedimentation,
landslides or acid water pollution. Nothing in the proposed modification will increase the
probability of any such occurrence.
7. I have operated the mine for nineteen years with no violations, permit revocations, bond
forfeitures or legal incidences.
