Lacy Loadout Facility, DMG Permit No. C-84-065 <br />CDPES No. COG-850025 <br />Dear Mr. Shukle: <br />Koy Ktxncr <br />Grncrnor <br />lamrs 5. Lochhcad <br />Cwttulive DirMw <br />Miahacl ll Wng <br />Dwmm~ Dnecror <br />This letter is to clarify the status of the coal loadout associated with the Coal Ridge Mine. <br />NCIG has asked the WQCD to terminate the discharge permit for that site. <br />The loadout which is included in the DMG permit was a previously existing rail spur. The <br />pond which was proposed as a sedimentation pond was previously existing. NC[G never <br />hauled coal to the site or used the area as part of any mining operations. The only activity <br />undertaken by NCIG was construction of an alluvial monitoring well, which has since been <br />reclaimed. No further mining or reclamation operations will be conducted there. <br />The loadout area is currently a part of the Coal Ridge permit area in their DMG permit. <br />However, we have informed the operator that the area can be deleted from the permit area <br />since no surface related mine disturbance occurred there. The operator has indicated that <br />a revision to the permit will be submitted soon which will delete all reference to the <br />loadout. Once that revision is approved, DMG will no longer have any jurisdiction over the <br />loadout. <br />Please call me if you have any questions or need additional information. <br />Sincerely, <br />Larry P.
