MINING PLAN EXHIBIT D(CONT) <br /> This pit will be operated year-around, weather permitting, as a <br /> specification aggregate supply for sale on the open market and as <br /> an Inert Materials landfill . The area is a two stage operation <br /> but the bond is calculated for total disturbance . Therefore, <br /> mining can take place on parts of the entire permit area without <br /> exceeding the bonded disturbance limits . Two final reclamation <br /> plans are presented to control the cost of the bond and are based <br /> on the continued availability of backfill materials proposed as <br /> fill in the excavated areas . Reclamation will run concurrent <br /> with mining to reduce the amount of disturbance at any one time . <br /> This site has been used for many years as the home place for the <br /> original owners . The outbuildings were used to store agricul- <br /> tural machinery when the area around this site was farmed or when <br /> the fish hatchery was in full operation. The electric and gas <br /> service to the buildings are owned by the landowners and will be <br /> disconnected and removed before mining begins . Prior to commenc- <br /> ing mining the site will be stripped of trees , houses, and <br /> buildings and disposed of properly. <br /> Mining equipment may include but is not limited to, front-end <br /> loaders , scrapers , off-road haul trucks, motor graders, track- <br /> hoes, bulldozers, dump trucks and a water truck. <br /> MINING PLAN <br /> Mining will start in 2015 or as soon there after as all permits <br /> are obtained and run from 2 to 7 years depending on the amount of <br /> material available and market demands . Please refer to Map Exhibit <br /> C-1 - Mining Plan Map for location of the areas discussed in the fol- <br /> lowing text . The side slopes will be mined 3h to lv to protect <br /> off site structures . There is sufficient material on the bottom <br /> of the mine to create 3 : 1 slopes around the excavation if of the <br /> backfilling face if it ended prematurely. <br /> Along the affected lands/permit line the setback will be 25 feet . <br /> The plan to mine the perimeter by leaving slopes adjacent to any <br /> structures graded 3h to lv will eliminate any chance that these <br /> structures will be affected by mining. This means leaving some <br /> gravel but will insure the integrity of the banks until filling <br /> is complete . MAP EXHIBIT C AND EXHIBITS contain information on all <br /> structures within 200 feet of the mined area. <br /> 7 <br />
