Notes: -
<br />1. Existing vegetation: The proposed mining area is composed of a former
<br />feedlot and fallow pastureland, with degraded vegetative conditions typical
<br />of unmanaged former agricultural land. Grass and forb cover, as
<br />described in Exhibit J, is relatively uniform across the site, with the I I
<br />exception of former paved areas, structures, and internal access roads.
<br />Vegetative distribution is unrelated to topography.
<br />I
<br />2.Stormwater / dewatering trenches: The affected area is designed to
<br />contain and direct all runoff to the currenteast side of UPRR
<br />( ) drainage
<br />facilities. All required and standard Best Management Practices will be
<br />installed in the site drainage facilities. '
<br />3.The central processing point is a 10 acre piece of land more or less is in I I
<br />the eastern central margin of the anticipated gravel resource. This serves '
<br />as an optional pad for the location of portable processing equipment and I I
<br />other operations. Gravel extraction may occur under the central _
<br />processing point at any time, and operation facilities may be located at +
<br />current ground level or at any excavated elevation. Rubble crushing and
<br />I
<br />screening and other recycling operations are anticipated to commonly
<br />occur at the central processing point. I
<br />4.Recycling operations: In accordance with State law the affected area
<br />includes plant facilities that handle recycled asphalt pavement and recycled
<br />concrete. I I
<br />5.Conveyors and loading points: The operator may utilize conveyor
<br />equipment as long as warranties are on file as required by law. Actual I
<br />locations may vary and may be adjusted as mining progresses.
<br />6.Compost and borrow resources: The eastern half of the affected area is
<br />at th d f th
<br />I-, e ge o e South Platte River valley. Few, rf any, gravel seams
<br />are expected to be recoverable in this eastern area. Land will be I
<br />regraded to industrial lots, the post -mining use. To achieve post -mining
<br />overlot grades and to provide material for commercial sale or on-site cut
<br />I
<br />and fill, land in the eastern area is a source for topsoil and general fill in
<br />any net quantity at final reclamation grades. Composted manure is mixed
<br />with topsoil as an amendment or with other fill to create engineered fill.
<br />i
<br />7.Phosing and conceptual cells: The sand and gravel recovery project will
<br />operate flexibly in the designated cells and subcells. In general, cells and
<br />subcells are phased in a discrete sequence and limits reclamation liability.

<br />8.Mining techniques: The following practices and procedures will be observed
<br />I
<br />t
<br />by the permitted operations:
<br />• Equipment: Sand and gravel will typically be recovered using loaders
<br />and haul trucks, with the use of excavators, dredge buckets, and other
<br />PROCESS WATER
<br />�I
<br />� I
<br />equipment as appropriate to address site conditions.
<br />• Dry / Wet mining: The operator will initially mine in a cell to set a
<br />I
<br />OTHER
<br />o
<br />temporary floor above groundwater; sufficient to avoid exposure,

<br />supply plan. Once a floor has been established and an Y re uire
<br />q d
<br />State Engineer Water Court
<br />Jlll�,,ll�;
<br />or approval obtained, the operator may
<br />0*1Odom �c
<br />N
<br />commence wet mining in a limited footprint that is a part of the
<br />'' Ilr1,111;
<br />temporary pit floor. The operator will recover wet material and use
<br />other available area on the pit floor to lay out and dry pit run
<br />materials. Once a bottom elevation has been established in the wet
<br />m ,Z
<br />mining subcell, establishing the basement floor of sand and gravel
<br />extraction, the operator may then commence to use borrowed fill or
<br />Xi■�r.
<br />other native materials, including certain processed materials as allowed1
<br />W�
<br />by state reclamation rules, to backfill between the basement floor and
<br />the dry / wet mine interface.
<br />i
<br />• Direction of mining: The operator shall commenced mining within
<br />dry g
<br />each cell at either the eastern or western boundary of the cell,
<br />proceeding to the opposite cell boundary and reversing direction to
<br />complete wet mining within the cell.
<br />1 ll'r Iii I
<br />I
<br />• Mining to stable slope: At the edge of the affected area, the operator'
<br />I I
<br />�'I Illli
<br />11
<br />Ij1
<br />will mine to a stable slope, as determined by a geotechnical analysis. 11 111 IIII}II
<br />�, �IIIjII i
<br />i
<br />Until a geotechnical analysis is submitted, a 2:1 mine -to slope is
<br />I I I Ili 111 11
<br />assumed to be stable. For final reclamation, a regraded shallower slope
<br />L II III llll�ll `)

<br />will be shaped in areas not backfilled to match the existing ground
<br />111 II�111j X111 i i
<br />surface.
<br />Illl`If1 l li
<br />I
<br />9.Inert fill: For all voided areas above groundwater, restoration of
<br />III Jill II
<br />I I:
<br />topographyto post -mining requires a net import of fill. The affected area
<br />I°`� k
<br />coincides with the intended extent of an operation to receive inert fill (e.g.,
<br />construction materials such as concrete and asphalt rubble). Only the
<br />I
<br />volume and surface area above groundwater will be filled using imported
<br />materials.
<br />10. Access drive: this access may be dedicated to the City of Fort Lupton as
<br />i
<br />public right-of-way, at the operators discretion. In this event, the access
<br />or other such affected area will be subject to
<br />� partial release from the
<br />reclamation permit.
<br />I
<br />11. Gravel well. The operator may replace current groundwater well facilities
<br />with a gravel well. Alternate water supply sources for operations include
<br />the Fulton Ditch and municipal service from the City of Fort Lupton.
