Site Description (cont) Exhibit B <br /> PERMANENT MAN-MADE STRUCTURES <br /> A private dirt road and the 4 strand wire fence along the <br /> west side, are the only structures within 200 feet of the af- <br /> fected lands . The Clennin' s own the road that crosses their <br /> property and the fence along the west side . The east-west fence <br /> between the Meredith and State Land properties were installed by <br /> and maintain by the lease holder, Austin Clennin. There are no <br /> above or below ground communication or power lines, bridges, <br /> wells, pipelines, water storage impoundments, railroad tracks, <br /> cemeteries or communication antennas within 200 feet of the <br /> affected lands . <br /> WATER RESOURCES <br /> There are no water structures on the site . The closest <br /> stream is the Little Graneros Creek that at its closest point is <br /> approximately 1 . 5 miles northwest of the site . The floor of the <br /> mine will be approximately 127 feet above the creek. Review of <br /> well records for the area in the State Engineers well database on <br /> the surrounding areas indicates the water table is more then 500 <br /> feet below the floor level of the mine . The closest well is <br /> approximately 2500 feet east-southeast of the permit area . The <br /> top of the well is approximately 266 lower then the mine floor <br /> and the water level is almost 550 feet below that . <br /> For this reason, mining will not reach the ground water <br /> table . We will not affect the hydrologic balance of surface or <br /> subsurface water in the area . No water will be used at the mine <br /> for processing, if needed for dust control it will be purchased <br /> from a local fire department or city and hauled to the mine . <br /> The exact amount to be purchased is unknown at this time, we <br /> estimate that under normal conditions approximately 2 acre-ft per <br /> year or 5, 000 gallons per truck load will be needed. The water <br /> will be purchased for a local municipality, either the City or <br /> Walsenburg or Colorado City from sources approved for this use . <br /> AUSTIN& BETSY CLENNIN- BECKER PIT May 7, 2020 <br /> 20 <br />
