Gravel Mine Disturbed Area Description <br />Acreage <br />1. Mining Area (includes old 110 permit area) <br />22.1 <br />2. Sediment Ponds <br />5.2 <br />3. Topsoil/Fines Stockpiles <br />1.4 <br />4. Processing and Stockpile Area (May also be Mined) <br />6.7 <br />5. Shop /Office area with Parking <br />1.0 <br />6. Access Roads <br />1.8 <br />7. Camp Area <br />2.3 <br />Total <br />40.50 <br />The entire disturbed area for this operation has been previously disturbed by pre -law mining. It <br />should be noted that this disturbed area is the total for the mine life. The gravel operation has 46.9 <br />acres in the new mine area and 11.8 acres in the older 110 mine area for a total of 58.7 acres. When <br />gravel mining moves from the old 110 area to the area north of the gold plant, the old 110 area will <br />be reclaimed, therefore, the worst case acreage to reclaim at any one time is the disturbed area of <br />40.5 acres less the 11.8 acres of the old 110 area which is 28.7 acres. The total gravel portion of the <br />permit area is divided as follows: <br />Gravel Mine Permit Area Description <br />Acreage <br />1. Mine Disturbed Area (All Pre -Law Disturbed) <br />40.5 <br />2. Additional Pre -Law Disturbed Area Within Permit <br />11.5 <br />3. Undisturbed Area <br />6.7 <br />Total <br />58.70 <br />The 11.5 acres of additional pre -law disturbance that is present in the permit area consists of past <br />highwalls on the east side of the disturbance and some gravel areas that may not be re- disturbed. The <br />Trust will make every effort possible to reclaim as many of the older pre -law areas as possible, how- <br />ever, their reclamation cannot be guaranteed since it is dependent upon profitable operation over <br />Alma Placer Mine 1115 32 <br />
