to the mill. All of the Detention Ponds will be installed during the construction phase and will be <br />maintained through the duration of mining operations. <br />Existing Waste Rock Stockpile <br />The existing Waste Rock Stockpile will be relocated from the east side of the site to the North <br />side of the site. Straw wattles will be placed around the perimeter of the stockpile to filter runoff <br />and of silt and sediment. Silt Fencing will also be present on the north and northeast sides of the <br />Waste Rock Stockpile. <br />Topsoil Stockpile <br />All topsoil removed during the construction phase will be stockpiled at the southwest corner of <br />the site, stabilized with vegetation through seeding within fourteen days of completion of <br />stockpiling, and will remain until reclamation activities take place. Straw wattles will be placed <br />around the perimeter of the topsoil stockpile to filter silt and sediment from run on and runoff. <br />New Over Burden/ Waste Stockpile <br />All overburden and waste rock removed through the mining operation will be stockpiled near the <br />eastern boundary of the site. Straw wattles will be placed around the perimeter of the stockpile to <br />filter runoff and run on and implement sediment control. <br />Temporary Concrete Washout Structure <br />A Temporary Concrete Washout Structure will be located in Pond # 1 or #3 and used only during <br />the construction of the ore storage pad. Concrete Washout material will not enter the site <br />drainage system or surface water. After completion of the ore storage pad and washout <br />procedures, wash water will be allowed to evaporate. Remaining solids will be removed from the <br />pond and disposed of properly offsite. <br />Ore Storage Pad <br />The Ore Storage Pad will be constructed near the center of the site, immediately north of the <br />mine portal with a footprint of 33 feet by 45 feet and will be used to stockpile mined Uranium <br />and Vanadium until it is transported off -site to the processing mill. The ore pad will feature three <br />foot containment walls on three sides of the pad. The fourth side will feature a drive over berm to <br />allow access by a wheeled front end loader. Rebar reinforced concrete with angle iron anchors <br />bolted at the corners of the entry and back corners will be used to construct the base of the <br />structure. The base will have a one percent slope and a channel drain that will span the width of <br />the pad and penetrate the containment wall to allow captured stormwater to drain into the <br />adjacent Pond #2 through a pipe with a downspout. <br />rel <br />
