EXHIBIT G <br /> WATER INFORMATION <br /> It is the operators intent to minimize the disturbances to the <br /> prevailing hydrologic balance of the affected land, of the <br /> surrounding areas and to the quality and quantity of the surface <br /> and ground water system, both during and after mining and <br /> reclamation. Albert Frei and Sons, Inc . believes they will be in <br /> compliance with all state and federal laws and regulations <br /> governing water and water rights as they understand them. <br /> Because of the geographic features around the mine, all offsite <br /> runoff is or will be diverted around the disturbed area. Any <br /> storm water runoff will be retained on the site and directed into <br /> the mining area when the mining and filling is taking place . <br /> When filling is complete there will be no exposed ground water on <br /> the mine area that did not exist prior to mining. <br /> Located within the permit area are 4 �—areas covered with water, <br /> one is the old gravel mine lake in the northwest part of the <br /> property, one is in the old fish hatchery area and the other is <br /> associated with the Bull Seep/Spring Ditch area on the west side <br /> of Stage 1 . In addition, there are a minor amount of wetland <br /> areas along the sides of the fish hatchery raceways and two small <br /> ponds in that area. The OPEN WATER AREAS ON THE SITE ±crke-contain <br /> approximately 5 . 5-0 8 . 56 acres of water surface depending on the <br /> ground water elevation in any given season. The WETLAND AREAS ±Sh <br /> cover approximately 0 . 95 acres . The Bull Seep <br /> area will not be disturbed <br /> SO THE TOTAL PRE 1981 WATER <br /> AREA ON THE MINE COVERS 9 . 51+ ACRES . <br /> If/or when we have to <br /> replace wetlands the area they cover will match the same surface <br /> acreages . <br /> Review of Division of Water Resources well permits in the area <br /> around the site indicated the ground water table lies 3 to 25 <br /> feet below the surface in this area. This information was <br /> obtained from Division of Water Resources (DWR) well records that <br /> show the average static water depth for wells around the mining <br /> operation. Ground water will be exposed by this operation so a <br /> well permit, Temporary Substitute Supply Plan and/or Augmentation <br /> Plan will be needed for this facility prior to mining within 2 <br /> feet of the ground water table. As explained in the Mining Plan, <br /> slurry walls will be constructed around the areas to be mined to <br /> eliminate exposing large areas of ground water. Both slurry <br />
