Construction Material Regular 112 Operation Reclamation Exhibits <br /> Raindance Reservoir#2 —VIMA Partners, LLC <br /> Exhibit G — Water Information <br /> (1) If the operation is not expected to directly affect surface or groundwater systems, a <br /> statement and sufficient demonstration of that expectation shall be submitted. <br /> See Exhibit M, the owner is in the process of applying for a well permit, once the <br /> permit is received the owner will inform DRMS of the permit name and number. <br /> (2) If the operation is expected to directly affect surface or groundwater systems, the <br /> Operator/Applicant shall: <br /> (a) Locate on the map (in Exhibit C) tributary water courses, wells, springs, stock <br /> water ponds, reservoirs, and ditches on the affected land and on adjacent lands where <br /> such structures may be affected by the proposed mining operations. <br /> See attached map in Exhibit C. <br /> (b) Identify all known aquifers; and <br /> There are no known aquifers in the area. <br /> (c) Submit a brief statement or plan showing how water from de-watering operations <br /> or from runoff from disturbed areas, piled material and operating surfaces will be <br /> managed to protect against pollution of either surface or groundwater (and, where <br /> applicable, control pollution in a manner that is consistent with water quality discharge <br /> permits), both during and after the operation. <br /> If groundwater is encountered temporarily, proper dewatering procedures and <br /> practices as defined in the Mile High Flood District Criteria Manual will be utilized. <br /> If any rain events occur and cause standing water within the operation, the water <br /> will be pumped out. Any discharge will occur at the current detention pond outlet <br /> point. After operation stormwater will enter at two points along the north side and <br /> will be pumped out within 72 hours at a volume equal to the inflow volume. <br /> (3) The Operator/Applicant shall provide an estimate of the project water requirements <br /> including flow rates an annual volumes for the development, mining and reclamation phases of <br /> the project. <br /> During operation very little water is anticipated to be used. Water will be applied <br /> for dust control by a water truck as needed and is estimated at less than 1,300 <br /> gallons per day. After operation the site will be operated as a reservoir. The <br /> capacity is designed at 1,500-acre feet with approximately 475-acre feet of annual <br /> consumption divided between Raindance River Reservoir and Reservoir Number 2. <br /> Water use from each reservoir will vary from year to year based on water availability <br /> and operation. <br /> (4) The Operator/Applicant shall indicate the projected amount from each of the sources of water <br /> TST.
