Exhibit C - PRE MINING MAP i New map added for amendment area and updating current conditions in the existing permit area. Exhibit C -1 - MINING PLAN MAP New map added for amendment area and updating current conditions in the existing permit area. Exhibit D MINING PLAN Unless specifically discussed below, the methods described and approved in the original 2006 permit application, including the parts of the mining and reclamation plans will remain un- changed. The current bond is $57,640.00. Mining will continue to be done using a dry mining technique with front -end loaders, scrapers and trackhoes. No blasting will take place at this mine. The current Weed Control Plan will be used on the amend- ment area. I I We have attached a revised Map Exhibit C - Pre -Mine, and Map Exhibit C -1 - Mine Plan Map for use during review of this amend- ment. We have updated the existing mine area to show the current conditions as parts of that area has been reclaimed and only a minor amount remains to be mined in the northern part of the mine. In this amendment the permit line becomes the affected land line so that the buffer areas can be used if needed. This also prevents any misunderstanding of what areas can be used if they are disturbed. This change removes the section of text from the original permit under 3.1.12(2)(a) Signs and Markers Leone Sand and Gravel's lease'with Howell's is still in good standing. The new area was leased,by the Biber Family Trust in 2013 and a Special Use Permit for amendment area was obtained on 12/9/14 from Las Animas County. We have included a copy of a permission document signed by the landowners giving Leone Sand and Gravel LLC. permission to obtain and operate a 112 permit on the amendment area'in Exhibit N - Source of Legal Right to Enter. We also intend to file a lease between Leone Sand and Gravel LLC. And the Biber family with the Division as soon as it is avail- able.
