(c) Water Diversions and Impoundments <br /> No surface water diversions are planned for the site. Groundwater shall be <br /> diverted by pumping from dewatering trenches to a temporary settling pond <br /> impoundment either within or adjacent to the excavation. <br /> (d) The Size of Areas to be Worked at Any One Time <br /> The largest mining cell is approximately 21 acres, which corresponds to the size <br /> of the area to be worked at any one time. Mining will generally advance by <br /> removing overburden from 2-3 acres ahead of the active pit run extraction area. <br /> (e) Mining Timetable <br /> Table 6.4.4-2 Mining Timetable Summary provides a summary of the mining <br /> sequence and approximate time to complete. It should be noted that the <br /> prediction of time to complete each mining cell is based on current market <br /> conditions. Should market conditions change, the timetable will change <br /> accordingly. <br /> The mining will occur in the numeric order of the mining Cells. <br /> Mining will be phased for the purpose of bonding will be as follows: <br /> To begin, a surety bond will be posted for Phase I which is defined as <br /> reclamation of Cell 1, revegetation of Cell 6 (plant site) and revegetation of the <br /> east conveyor site disturbance. Before any disturbances occur outside of Phase <br /> I, additional surety will be posted for Phase II which includes reclamation of Cell <br /> 2. Before any disturbances occur outside of Phase II, additional surety will be <br /> posted for Phase III which includes reclamation of Cells 3, 4, 5 and 6. <br /> Table 6.4.4-2 Mining Timetable Summary <br /> Mining Cell Mining Activity Approximate Time <br /> to Complete <br /> Cell 1 Strip & Mine 2.0 <br /> Cell 2 Strip & Mine 2.0 <br /> Cell 3 Strip & Mine 2.0 <br /> Cell 4 Strip & Mine 1.0 <br /> Cell 5 Strip & Mine 1.5 <br /> Cell 6 Strip & Mine 2.0 <br /> (f) The Nature of Deposit to be Mined and Overburden <br /> Amen Aggregate Resource <br /> Specific Exhibits <br /> Page 9 of 84 <br />
