Exhibit G <br /> Water Information <br /> Williams/Illinois Gravel Pit <br /> Ground water has and will not been an issue during mining operations in the last 16 years <br /> of operations as anticipated and required in original Permit#M-1997-039 see attached <br /> documentation in Exhibit`B"(c) now Exhibit(G) in 112 permit. <br /> If dust or other water needs are needed then the operator of Williams Pit will use a water <br /> truck or storage tank to resolve the issue. See Exhibit(G) (1)for the water source. <br /> As far as flow rates and annual volumes of water during all phases of the project. What <br /> has been done in the past was to utilize 12,000 gallons of water to make 5000 ton of class <br /> 2 chips for the CDOT. During normal operations no water is necessary because of the <br /> moisture contained in the gravel and sand. There will be no water required in <br /> reclamation because as stated in reclamation plan it will be returned to rangeland with <br /> the only water coming from rain and snow. <br /> Storm water is no more than what would be there if no pit was in existence. The floor of <br /> the existing pit is sloped away from the present operations. This is so operations can <br /> continue much quicker during or after rain or snowstorms with out having a mud issue. <br /> The water is then absorbed by the ground,plants or evaporates at approximately the same <br /> rate as it would if the land had not been disturbed. <br /> Storm water is and will be contained by sloping all mining operations into the existing pit <br /> as done in the original Permit# 1997-039. If a situation where water needs to be <br /> discharged, the operator of the pit will get a storm water discharge permit. <br />
