EXHIBIT K— CLIMATE INFORMATION <br /> The information provided in this Exhibit is intended to satisfy the requirements outlined in Section <br /> 6.4.11 of the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Board Construction Material Rules and <br /> Regulations: <br /> Provide a description of the significant climatological factors for the locality. <br /> This property is in a semi-arid continental climate strongly influenced by the Rocky Mountains. The <br /> area is usually warm in the summer with frequent hot days. In winter, periods of very cold weather <br /> are caused by arctic air moving in from the north or northwest. Milder periods occur when westerly <br /> winds are warmed as they move down slope off of the mountains to the east. <br /> Weather monitoring data is not available from the site. The nearest weather monitoring station is <br /> at Ft. Lupton and Brighton, Colorado. Data is collected from the Western Regional Climate Center. <br /> The table below lists the mean monthly temperature, and average total precipitation on a monthly <br /> and annual basis for the period of record from January 1, 1950 to December 31, 2000. Most of the <br /> precipitation occurs as rainfall during the warmer part of the year with the heaviest rainfalls in the <br /> late spring and early summer. Winter snowfall is frequent but the snowcover usually melts quickly <br /> during the milder periods. <br /> Jan Feb Mar Apr May Pun Fj_u 11 Aug Sep Oct FNo`v][DjdjAnnuaIj <br /> Mean Monthly 28.0 32.9 F <br /> .1 [4811HF]HHHHHH 49.7 <br /> Temperature (F) <br /> Average Total �4]4 H HHHHHHHHHH <br /> 12.99 <br /> Precipitation (in.) <br /> Burnco Colorado, LLC—Inouye Gravel Mine—MLRB 112 Permit Application <br /> Exhibit K-1 <br />
