Site Description (cont) Exhibit B <br /> PERMANENT MAN-MADE STRUCTURES <br /> A private dirt road and the 4 strand wire fence approxi- <br /> mately 165 feet north of the permit boundary side, are the only <br /> structures within 200 feet of the affected lands . The permittee <br /> owns the road and the fence . There are no above or below ground <br /> communication or power lines, bridges, wells, pipelines, water <br /> storage impoundments, railroad tracks, cemeteries or communica- <br /> tion antennas within 200 feet of the affected lands . <br /> WATER RESOURCES <br /> There are no water structures on the site. The closest <br /> stream is the North Carrizo Creek that at its closest point is <br /> approximately 11 miles west of the site. Review of well records <br /> for the area in the State Engineers well database indicates the <br /> water table is more then 250 feet below the floor level of the <br /> mine. The closest well is approximately 1, 080 feet east-south- <br /> east of the permit area on W.F. Ratliff property. The top of the <br /> well is approximately 30 lower then the mine floor and the water <br /> level is almost 300 feet below that . <br /> For this reason, mining will not reach the ground water <br /> table. The hydrologic balance of the surface or subsurface water <br /> in the area will not be affected. No water will be used at the <br /> mine for processing, if needed for dust control it will be <br /> purchased from a source approved for this use and hauled to the <br /> mine. This source may be from a local well adjudicated for <br /> industrial uses. <br /> The exact amount to be purchased is unknown at this time, <br /> under normal conditions approximately 2 acre-ft per year or 5, 000 <br /> gallons per truck load will be needed. <br /> W.F.
