mow <br /> LANGSTON <br /> CONCRETE INC. <br /> The C33 cement sand will be placed in a stockpile via a conveyor belt stacker to the North of a <br /> settling pond. The plated area where the sand is to be stockpiled will be graded in a Southern <br /> fashion to slope back towards the settling pond. Here we will attempt to capture the excess water <br /> in the sand and let it drain back into the settling pond for recirculation though the wash facility. <br /> The clean rock products will be stacked out on a conveyor belt stacker and shuttled via a haul <br /> truck to a location within the disturbed"stockpile" area to store for future retail sales. <br /> We have an employee on staff that use to work for two different organizations as a wash plant <br /> operator. We have leaned on his experience to develop operational processes for everything <br /> involved with washing sand. It will be our intention to place the reject material in a fashion to let <br /> it dry out for approximately one to two weeks. After it is dry enough it will be pushed up into a <br /> pile and/or moved to a location on the property for reclamation efforts. <br /> Please refer to the attached, exhibit D- Mining Plan Map, for the proposed location of the wash <br /> plant within the disturbance area at the pit. <br /> An added feature of the wash plant will be a new impoundment for settling reject solids out of <br /> the washing facility. The existing mine plan narrative states that"no water diversions or <br /> impoundments will exist on site." We are going to need to change this narrative to include the <br /> impoundment as a settling pond. As well as add the portable wash plant facility. <br /> Water for washing procedures will be purchased from Evraz and come from the Minnequa Canal <br /> on the North East side of the permitted boundary. (Please see the attached water lease agreement <br /> from Evraz Inc.) We plan on adding a pump at the canal location capable of pulling water from <br /> the canal and also pushing it to the wash plant location. The water line will run into the permitted <br /> property on the North East corner and across the pit floor in a South West direction. We plan on <br /> installing everything we can underground to assist in vandalism/theft prevention as well as <br /> freezing problems. The pump will be an all-inclusive set up and be mounted on a skid. The <br /> suction line will plumb into it on the canal side and the push line will hook up and run <br /> underground to the South from there. <br /> Please refer to the attached, exhibit D- Mining Plan Map, for the proposed location of the <br /> process-water ponds. As well as the location of the water line entry into the permitted property. <br /> In addition to the impoundment, we have added three concrete structures for the wash plant. One <br /> is a set of walls to be used as a loading ramp to load the surge bin that will feed the wash plant. <br /> (This wall set is very similar to the set of walls we added for our screening plant a few years <br /> ago.) One is a concrete slab the wash plant will sit on to cut down on mud& excessive settling of <br /> the wash plant structure. We want to be able to keep the plant clean and tidy on a daily basis, so <br /> having a concrete slab underneath the chassis of the portable wash plant was the best solution we <br /> could come up with to allow personnel to access the area on foot and with a skid loader to clean <br /> the area around the facility. We feel this will also cut down on safety related issues that may <br /> arise from the facility being under constant water intrusion.
