4) contained and will have water sprays and screen plants will also contain water sprays to keep dust <br />down. Roads will either be sprayed with magnesium chloride or will be watered on an as needed <br />basis. The Trust will provide the town with a phone number to call if for any reason dust levels are <br />high and correction is needed. The site will have a fugitive dust permit from the Air Quality Control <br />Division of the CDPHE and all individual portable plants such as the processing plant, asphalt plant <br />and concrete plant, will have their own individual permits for dust control with the CDPHE. <br />5) By extending gravel processing over the old gold tailings areas, this will remove theses unsightly <br />piles and both the gold and gravel operators will be required to conduct strict topsoil and fines <br />salvage operations to provide a growth medium for reclamation. Without these activities and strict <br />soil salvage stipulations, there would never be enough money to reclaim the site and make it look <br />better for everyone. <br />6) Hours of operation will be limited to 12 hours per day for 6 days per week. By necessity, the <br />operation will be very limited during the winter months. <br />7) Currently the operation has two main accesses, one north of the town of Alma (Access #6) and <br />one immediately south of the town (Access #1), as shown on Map C -2. Traffic for the future <br />operation is not expected to increase significantly from that experienced in the year 2000. In 2003, <br />traffic is expected to be less due to the poor economy and increased competition. In 2003, gold <br />mining will force Access #1 to be disrupted. The traffic for this access will be moved to Access #4, <br />slightly south of Access # 1. Most of the traffic of concern is gravel haul trucks, of which there will <br />be two types, semi -end dumps of 24 tons capacity and tandem trucks of 15 tons capacity. It is <br />expected that 60% of the tonnage will be hauled by the 15 ton tandems and 40% by the semi end <br />dumps. It is also expected that 50% of the traffic will move south of Alma and 50% will move north <br />of Alma. For all trucks moving south, the south entrance will be used and the town will be avoided. <br />For north traffic, all at- tempts will be made to use the north access, but grade considerations at this <br />entrance will force some trucks to use the south entrance. <br />Alma Placer 9/12 40 <br />
