EXHIBIT D <br /> 6.4.4 EXHIBIT D-Mining Plan <br /> McCormick Excavation And Paving LLC(applicant) Stewart II <br /> A. Mining methods are strip topsoil and stock pile. Remove overburden to sand gravel.And if <br /> necessary screen sand and gravel with portable screening equipment.Once sand and gravel are <br /> removed, put overburden in that location to proper slope and grade. Install topsoil on <br /> overburden and prepare it for seeding. <br /> B. Earth moving to be done by scrapers,dozers and loaders. <br /> C. There should not be any water impoundments other than what would be natural. Diversions <br /> would be on top of the hills to divert water around the proposed area in grassy areas.To <br /> eliminated sediment in storm water,it would not reroute any water.All runoff will still end up at <br /> the same location if the project was not there.A small berm can be installed at lower elevation <br /> of the site to catch any sediment that might happen. <br /> D. Size of area to be worked at one time. Roughly nine acres would be the size of area disturb at <br /> one time.We are asking to combine to pit together and make one.The north portion is Stewart <br /> Pit II and the south pit is the Stewart Pit.Stewart Pit II will be mined out first and reclamation <br /> will commence before moving to the south to the old pit Stewart pit. <br /> E. Time table is there should be about 1 year left on the north pit(Stewart Pit II). We will place <br /> overburden the areas that are finished. Once Stewart Pit II is all complete in mining we will <br /> prepare area for seeding.This should be done immediately after area is prepped.Then during <br /> this time we will start get gravel out of Stewart Pit(the pit to the south)will be ongoing and the <br /> same steps will follow on this portion.Stewart Pit may have up to 5 years on it. <br /> 1. See time line above. <br /> 2. Stewart Pit II(north pit)size should not be more than 9 acres at most.The area being mined <br /> will be around 4 acres disturbed and another 3 acres to be used in work area.These 3 acres <br /> and the other already mined area will be in stages of reclamation.Stewart Pit(south pit)will <br /> be worked in a direction going south.This will not allow this area to be reclamated till project <br /> is mined out. <br /> The other area in the pit will be under some type of reclamation stage.That are not in the <br /> work area or overburden stockpile area. <br /> 3.Stewart Pit II is the north area of the pit.Stewart Pit is to the south of the Stewart Pit II,we are <br /> wanting to combine the pits together.Stewart Pit II will finish up within the next year and it <br /> will then be under reclamation.Then would move over to Stewart Pit which would be the <br /> south end of the combined pits.Which we would then start removing overburden. Portion <br /> that will get mined will not be able to be reclamation till it is fully mined. <br /> F. Material to be gotten from this fill dirt,sand and gravel.The depth of material ranges from 8 <br /> feet to 10 feet in depth.The overburden is a sandy loam silt that ranges in depth of 1 feet to 5 <br /> feet in depth on north end Stewart Pit II.Stewart Pit to the south the sand gravel depth is <br /> around 10 feet to 15 feet in depth.The overburden is around 12 feet to 15 feet in depth.That <br /> will have to be removed. <br />
