Reclamation phase <br /> areas will be between 10 to 13 acres. Reclamation will include the placement and seeding of cover <br /> material over fill areas, except for permanent road and heavy industrial areas. <br /> 3) The Stiles Mining Resource permit area is 158.3 acres which includes the City of Evans 35th Avenue <br /> ROW and Hunt Brother Properties.The minable area is±125 acres that is divided into four mine <br /> phases and twelve mine blocks.The area affected by mining at one time will be±60 acres; except for <br /> the first two years when the overburden striping operations will affect about 75 acres. <br /> 4) The time to complete the mining of the area is estimated to be 40 years. Maximum production is <br /> expected to be±300,000 tons per year. Final reclamation is expected to be complete in ±45 years. <br /> Due to market and economic considerations, mining could progress faster or slower than expected, <br /> which will adjust the time for mining and reclamation of the site. <br /> 5) Use -The property at one time was worked as an irrigated farm.The prior property owners use for <br /> the land included a livestock and dry land grazing operation. The dominant land uses surrounding <br /> the property includes water recharge to the west; oil and gas in the area, recreation along the river, <br /> residential to the south along CR 394, heavy industry on the north side of the river and agriculture <br /> H:\Pits HBP Plants\EVANS\Stiles Mining Resource\Exh E Reclamation\Exhibit E Reclamation Plan.docx <br />
