and regulations governing injury to existing water rights. <br /> (b) The operator/applicant will comply with applicable Federal and <br /> Colorado water quality laws and regulations, including all the standards <br /> adopted by the State Water Quality Control Commission. <br /> (c) No dredge of streambeds will be done, and the fill areas will not <br /> injure the water quality nor restrict historical flow. <br /> (d) Some earthen structures will remain that were used to control <br /> stormwater after mining. Reclamation requires some structures eg: earthen <br /> berms. <br /> (2) No dams will be constructed on this mine site. Earthen berms will be used <br /> to manage stormwater. <br /> (3) All surface areas of the affected land, including spoil piles, will be stabilized <br /> and protected so as to effectively control erosion. <br /> 3.1.7 Groundwater - Specific Requirements <br /> Groundwater is discussed in Exhibit "G" - Water Information. <br /> 3.1.8 Wildlife <br /> (1) The operator will consider the safety and protection of wildlife on site. No <br /> described critical periods or species are known by this operator/applicant or <br /> landowner. <br /> (2) No habitat management is planned on this site. <br /> 3.1.9 - Topsoiling <br /> (1) Topsoil will be stockpiled in close proximity to the mine areas in order to <br /> shorten haul distances to and from the areas that were stripped. Once the <br /> topsoil has been removed and segregated from the other spoil or product, it will <br /> be saved for replacement. If the duration before use exceeds one full growing <br /> cycle, the topsoil stockpiles will be seeded with a western wheatgrass (9 # / <br /> PLS) to control erosion. <br /> (2) Mining on the affected lands will disturb little to no woody vegetation. <br /> (3) Stockpiles will be configured to minimize erosion and will be located in <br /> areas where disturbance by ongoing mining operations will be minimized. As <br /> stated in 3.1.9 topsoiling (1) above, if necessary, stockpiles will be seeded for <br /> the purpose of stabilization. <br /> (4) It is planned to locate topsoil stockpiles so material will only have to be <br />
