h) No water is anticipated in conjunction with the operation. Mining would stop at least <br /> one foot above any groundwater that might exist,but groundwater will be well below <br /> the bottom of the pit. There could be instances when heavy rainfall makes the site too <br /> muddy to continue. At those times,mining will simply cease until the site becomes <br /> dry enough to mine again. <br /> i) Mining will not go into the groundwater at the site. <br /> j) Since no water is to be used,there should be no injury to existing water rights. <br /> k) No refuse, acid, or toxic producing materials are anticipated at the site. Other mining <br /> enterprises in this part of Washington County have never yielded any such materials. <br /> 1) The finished pit will be returned to rangeland. There should be no disturbance to the <br /> hydrologic balance. <br /> m) While processing of the material is not anticipated at the site,this depends upon the <br /> quality of the material and needs of buyers. Limited processing could occur if there is <br /> need. <br /> n) The commodities to be mined are gravel, clay, and sand. <br /> o) The mined materials will primarily be used for road material or other construction <br /> projects. Some of the overburden could be used for other purposes such as <br /> landscaping projects. <br /> p) No explosives will be used in this operation. <br />
