MINING PLAN EXHIBIT C <br /> 1. General Mining Plan <br /> The permit area will be staked prior to any additional site disturbance. Map C-2 shows the <br /> mining activities. There is an existing excavation that has exposed the depth of gravel <br /> excavation desired for the site. The minable gravel layer is at a minimum 25' thick. The mine <br /> plan includes mining the alluvial gravel with a loader. Processed and stockpiled within the mine <br /> area to be loaded out and used on the landowner's farm roads and agriculturally based buildings. <br /> Access to the mining area will be from 5875 Road. It is the intent project that the gravel be used <br /> on the existing tract of land to improve roads and transported approximately 2 miles South West <br /> to the landowner's other properties in the valley to the West of the project. Haul routes would <br /> include 5875 to Spring Creek Road and Spring Creek Road onto Shavano Valley Road. <br /> Topsoil if encountered, will be salvaged on site and stored for reclamation. Topsoil, if <br /> salvageable,will be stockpiled along the western edge of the permit running north to south. The <br /> operation will mine for a few months per year and produce stockpiles to supply demand for the <br /> landowner's agricultural needs on their properties.No outside sales are anticipated or sought <br /> after. Excavated product will be stored within the Mining Area. All final slopes will be mined to <br /> 3H:1 V or less to reduce the amount of reclamation required after mining. The mining areas and <br /> stockpiles are shown on Map C-2. <br />
