3. Groundwater <br /> No groundwater will be interacted with by this operation as it is greater than 100 ft below the <br /> surface. In the event that groundwater is encountered, mining will cease in the area and the pit <br /> will be filled with at least 2 feet of overburden to cover any and all exposed groundwater. <br /> 4. Water Consumption for the Operation and Water Rights <br /> Water consumption for the Skelton Pit will exclusively be for dust control. Water supply is <br /> available via the United/Norwood Pit to the north. <br /> 4.1 . Control Dust <br /> Water application for dust control will take place at least four times a day over all disturbed <br /> areas. Active stockpiles and others may require additional watering to ensure material stays <br /> wet. Alternatively, the operator may apply magnesium chloride to disturbed areas instead of <br /> watering. <br /> It is also assumed that additional watering will be needed during very dry windy conditions <br /> during mining operations. The facility manager will determine when and where this is needed <br /> during operations. <br /> This will consume an anticipated 1.36 ac-ft of water a year. <br /> Skelton Pit <br /> January 2022 G-q Lewicki&Associates <br />
