MINING PLAN <br /> 3. A small map is provided on the next page that shows the land that was removed when the <br /> processing plant area west of Academy was removed from the plan. More detailed maps for the west <br /> side from here on, including annual report maps,will only include the permitted portion(basically <br /> the sediment basin) and some of the land adjacent to the sediment basin. <br /> 4. A small parcel of land has been added to the south side of the land east of Academy. This <br /> parcel of land is referred to as the J Pry .o2erty. The former owners of this land was a family named <br /> Johnson. Unfortunately, if called the Johnson Property confusion of this property with the Little <br /> Johnson Reservoir site could easily occur. Therefore it will be called the J Property to avoid <br /> confusion. <br /> PHASING, AREAS, AND SEQUENCING <br /> In the prior permit both the western and eastern portions of the operation were divided into a <br /> number of phases. East of Academy this subdivision of the land extended yet further by defining <br /> certain sequences of operation. At that time, such a classification was useful. But now that most of <br /> the phases have been mined out and the locations no longer distinguishable or relevant to the plan, <br /> continued use of those phases seems to be pointless and adds considerable complexity to a fairly <br /> simple plan from this point on. As a result, the site has been completely reclassified. Phases and <br /> sequences of operation are no longer relevant or distinguishable in the course of operating this pit. <br /> Instead, the site is divided into three areas, two of which, in time, will be merged and become <br /> indistinguishable. <br /> Sediment Area: This is all that is left from the 1992 permit amendment that is located <br /> west of Academy Boulevard. <br /> North Area: This area is defined by the southern edge of the remaining location of the <br /> Fountain Mutual Ditch. It extends to the base of the sand face south of the <br /> ditch. From there it extends northward to the north permit (affected land) <br /> boundary at the highway right of way. Most of the future mining will occur in <br /> this area. <br /> South Area: This area extends from the south edge of the North Area to the southern <br /> permit(affected land)boundary. Most of the sand here has already been <br /> removed,but the Little Johnson and some other miscellaneous extraction still <br /> Daniels Sand Pit Amendment (2008) Exhibit D Page 6 of 28 <br />
