7. Grand County Impacts and Environmental Impacts <br /> Impacts to Grand County are discussed further in the Grand County Land Use Permit but are <br /> summarized below. In general, the impacts will not be increased by the changes described in <br /> this amendment. <br /> a. Truck traffic: All material will leave Lockhart Pit via its connection to the existing Brig pit. <br /> All access and traffic matters will remain under the purview of the Brig pit. <br /> b. Noise: The operations at the Lockhart Pit will be a continuation of the mining and <br /> processing at the existing pit with no increase in intensity or noise impacts. Operations <br /> will be maintained in a fashion to stay within state noise limits. <br /> c. Dust: Pit activities will be watered and all operations on the site are regulated by the Air <br /> Pollution Control Division of the CDPHE. <br /> d. The product from this mine will positively impact the local community by supplying <br /> construction materials for the foreseeable growth of this part of Grand County. <br /> Additionally, by maintaining mining activities in an area that is used to them (Brig Pit <br /> already present), the cumulative impacts to the local community are kept minimal. <br /> a) Stormwater control structures will be maintained to protect the area surface water <br /> regime. <br /> b) The operator will work closely with the County, Town of Kremmling, NRCS, CDPW and <br /> the DRMS to ensure that the reclamation plan is the most appropriate for achieving the <br /> post-mining land use. <br /> Lockhart Pit <br /> March 2024 D-5 Lewicki&Associates <br />
