The water rights available to offset these consumptive uses are: <br />1) 2.0 cfs from Sacramento Creek for placer mine purposes only, dating back to the 1860's. This right <br />can be used from mid May to mid September of any given year. <br />2) 2.13 acre feet of Cottage Grove Reservoir water, which is an augmentation right. This can be used <br />to offset consumptive uses on the property. <br />The mine will encounter water in the excavation and will expose groundwater, in addition to other consumptive <br />uses associated with the mining operation, such as road dust control, sluicing, gravel sales, crushing <br />and screening dust control. These consumptive uses have been calculated in detail in the Substitute <br />Water Supply Plan, which has been submitted to the Division of Water Resources and has been approved <br />by them. This information is part of the S W SP that has been submitted with a gravel well permit application <br />and approved by the State Engineer's office. All water rights documentation, consumptive use calculations <br />and offset from the existing water rights are presented in the SWSP, which is attached in Appendix <br />B. <br />The site does not require an Augmentation Plan since the amount of groundwater exposure is so small <br />that it is easier to bond for the filling ofthis exposure instead of developing a full Augmentation Plan. <br />Gloria Z Mine TR -03 2015 44 <br />
