mining shows that the material is alluvial in nature. However, in the event that such materials <br /> are encountered,they will be covered with overburden and topsoil from the stockpiles to the <br /> same depths outlined in the reclamation plan and no more mining will occur in this area. <br /> The site will use all existing roads to haul the product to its final destination. It is planned that <br /> the material may be used to re-surface existing roads, make concrete aggregate or provide new <br /> road base for any new roads within an economic distance to the site. <br /> Several hazardous materials will be stored and used onsite throughout the project. These <br /> materials include products associated with diesel motors and gravel processing equipment. <br /> 4. Topsoil and Overburden Handling <br /> Topsoil is highly variable and ranges from depths of six to twelve inches. Overburden depths are <br /> also highly variable and range from 1 to 20 feet with an average depth of 5 feet expected. Both <br /> topsoil and overburden will be used on site for reclamation of mined out areas. Topsoil will be <br /> directly placed during reclamation. Overburden will be handled in a similar way. Small <br /> stockpiles of such material will be kept in the facilities area as needed. Any topsoil or <br /> overburden stockpile that is to be in place longer than 90 days will be vegetated to prevent wind <br /> erosion. <br /> 5. Water Information, Rights and Augmentation <br /> All water rights issues such as availability of water for this operation, consumption rates, dust <br /> control, etc. is presented in Exhibit G - Water Information. <br /> 6. Schedule of Operations <br /> Mining operations will only occur as dictated by demand up to the maximum rates described <br /> earlier in the mine plan. Mining, screening and processing will be conducted with portable <br /> equipment at various times of the year. Product will be sold from this activity throughout the <br /> year, although little is expected to be sold in winter months. The operator will not have night <br /> gravel mining operations, although minor truck activity or repairs may occur after hours. The <br /> Tower Pit will operate from a half hour before sunrise to half hour after sunset, Monday through <br /> Saturday throughout the year. <br /> Tower Pit <br /> October 2018 D-5 <br />
