RECLAMATION PLAN EXHIBIT E(coNT) <br /> will control unsightliness and protect the drainage system from <br /> pollution. <br /> There are no acid-forming or toxic materials involved in <br /> this operation. <br /> If petroleum products are stored at the site, it will be <br /> done as prescribed by applicable laws . Any storage tanks will <br /> be surrounded by a berm or be in self contained facilities <br /> adequate to retain any fluid spilled, should a tank rupture. <br /> In addition, there is adequate absorbent materials on site to <br /> contain any spills that would occur outside the containment <br /> structure. <br /> There are no drill or auger holes on the land. <br /> Maximum slopes will be within the limits set forth in the <br /> Rules and Regulations of the Board and will be capable of being <br /> traversed by machinery. <br /> The operator does not expect prevailing hydrologic <br /> conditions to be disturbed. Big Bull Dog Trucking, Inc. will <br /> comply with applicable Colorado water laws and regulations (as <br /> the operator understands them) . Any water used in the operation <br /> of the processing plants and for dust control will come from <br /> water sources described in WATER-EXHIBITG. <br /> No dredging takes place at this facility, there are no <br /> temporary siltation structures involved in this operation and <br /> no mining will be done in a river or waters of the United <br /> States . A U.S . Army Corps of Engineers Permit is not required <br /> for this operation because there are no wetlands on the site <br /> that will be disturbed. No retention ponds will be constructed <br /> on the site. There will be no earthen dams on the mined area. <br /> The Mining and Reclamation Plans consider existing <br /> wildlife conditions and final reclamation will not change the <br /> area for wildlife use. The mining and reclamation plans allow <br /> for the safety and protection of wildlife remaining on the mine <br /> site, at the processing site and along all access roads to the <br /> site by limiting the equipment speeds to 15 mph, and working <br /> only during daylight hours . In general we have found there is <br /> little long term disturbance to native wildlife species around <br /> gravel mining operations . The big game species tend to use <br /> mining sites and newly vegetated areas after operations have <br /> stopped for the day. Very few operations take place during the <br /> late fall thru early spring due to weather conditions, so big <br /> game using the area as winter range will not be disturbed in <br /> Big Bull Dog Trucking, Inc.
