Support equipment will come to the site on an as-needed basis. <br /> No refuse, acid or toxic producing materials are expected to be encountered in this operation. If <br /> these materials are encountered, topsoil will be placed over the area and mining will move to a <br /> different area. <br /> The stormwater containment berms are intended to hold the stormwater for less than 24 hours. <br /> This will be done by storing the water on the pit floor. The stormwater will infiltrate to the <br /> groundwater as it did prior to mining. <br /> All existing fencing will stay in place. <br /> The operator commits to clearly marking the permit boundary with stakes surveyed on site. It is <br /> planned that the material may be used to provide base material for construction projects in the <br /> area. <br /> 4. Topsoil, Overburden Handlingg <br /> Topsoil is limited and will be stockpiled and stored for reclamation uses if encountered. <br /> 5. Water Handling <br /> All water for dust control will be transported to the site via a water truck. On site water will not <br /> be required for the operations. All historic water rights and flow ways will not be altered and <br /> will be protected under requirements called out in the storm water management plan to be issued <br /> by the Colorado Department of Health and Environment prior to the commencement of <br /> operations. <br /> 6. Schedule of Operations <br /> Import, crushing and export of material will be congruent with the construction schedule of the <br /> Blue Creek Project <br /> 7. Gunnison County LMpacts and Environmental Impacts <br /> The aggregate production is estimated to be 150,000 tons of material required to service the <br /> project. Truck traffic will be limited to the site and the project, reducing the traffic volumes if <br /> the materials were to be imported from the Gunnison or Montrose areas. <br />
