MINING PLAN <br /> is built, then the sand on the north end of the reservoir site will need to be in plaee, in an undistui <br /> condition, to aecommodate that possible future use. All other ffit=e final land uses that are bein <br /> considered at this finie are less limiting on the ftftre extraetion of this smid than the reservoir. <br /> MATERIAL PROCESSING: <br /> Processing of the sand removed from this area will be identical to the processing of sand <br /> removed elsewhere. Basically, the sand will be transported,by conveyor, to the west side of <br /> Academy Boulevard(through the tunnels)where it will be washed and distributed as product. No <br /> separate processing is necessary. <br /> INTEGRATION OF MINING AND RECLAMATION: <br /> Because little or no reclamation can be done in the Little Johnson area or IMMEDIATELY <br /> adjacent portions of Phase-4e THE SOUTH AREA until this mining is completed, mining and <br /> reclamation will be sequential. That is, when the mining is completed the reclamation will be <br /> implemented on the entire area. In the existing plan, the final slope for the east side of Phase-4e THE <br /> SOUTH AREA would be created in the near future and would have a planned maximum grade of <br /> But with mining of the Little Johnson area the final reclamation of the east end of Phase 4c THE <br /> SOUTH AREA must be delayed until the Little Johnson area is completed. Although this results in a <br /> delay of reclamation, the benefit is that the final slope will be far more gradual, it will be covered <br /> with better soil and it should revegetate much better than the existing plan would produce. The <br /> benefit to the final reclamation product far exceeds the deficit of the additional time until <br /> reclamation occurs. <br /> Because of constantly changing !mid uses, as well as ffitnre plans fbr this area by the Security <br /> Water Disti-ict, the actuai time when recimnation will begin is difficult to determine. At this point i <br /> thne, it is expected that reclarnation will bcgin upon conTletion of the i i _ quired by law. ft <br /> is possibic that, at the completion of mining, theSse future uses will be more definite mid other opti <br /> will be considered. F=ther detail on this aspect is provided in the Reclamation Plan(Exhibit E) and <br /> in the next section of this exhibit. <br /> This is the end of the Little Johnson Reservoir mining plan. A few other issues regarding other <br /> portions of the operation were also presented in the amendment. These issues are repeated in the <br /> next section of this exhibit. <br /> Daniels Sand Pit Amendment (2008) Exhibit D Page 17 of 28 <br />
