Floodplain Development Permit <br />There is an existing river crossing allowance from the US Army Corps of Engineers for the site <br />but it has been moved to the new location shown on Map C-2. No documentation has been <br />formulated for this old crossing (located east of the new crossing) but according to Todd <br />Sullivan, (operator of JRS Mining LLC) the Corps inspected the crossing during the past <br />operation of the 1 10 permit and deemed it to be acceptable. This crossing will not be used during <br />the new operation, since the north side of the old crossing is not within the permit area. The new <br />crossing, as shown on Map C-2, is located to the west of the old crossing and is within the permit <br />area on both sides. <br />Details of the crossing are shown below: <br />The floodplain crossing was designed and sent to the Army Corps of Engineers as a Nationwide <br />Permit. This was approved in June of 2015 and is still in compliance. The approval consisted of <br />large rock placed in the River bed (below grade so that any vehicle crossing would not result in <br />any increased sediment in the River. The Application showing the plans for the crossing and the <br />Army COE approval Ietter is attached. This information should suffice for the Floodplain <br />Development Permit. There is currently is no mining activity (and never will be) within the 100 <br />year floodplain, as shown on the Mine Plan Map C-2 of the DRMS permit. <br />
