EXHIBIT G <br /> (G) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit <br /> The West Side Placer project is not required to obtain a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System(NPDES)permit <br /> for its operation,as there will be no discharge of pollutants into any natural waterway or body of water.All water used <br /> in the mining and processing operations will be carefully managed on-site,with no external discharge that could impact <br /> surrounding water resources. The wash plant will operate with a closed-loop water system,where water is recirculated and <br /> contained within man-made storage vessels to ensure efficient usage and minimal environmental impact. <br /> Any unused or excess water will be responsibly reintroduced into the aquifer in compliance with Colorado's Managed <br /> Aquifer Recharge (MAR)rules. This approach supports sustainable water use by replenishing groundwater resources <br /> without introducing contaminants.Adhering to MAR regulations ensures that water reintroduction does not negatively <br /> affect groundwater quality or availability for other users. By following these practices,the project demonstrates a <br /> commitment to environmental stewardship and regulatory compliance. <br /> (H) Maps <br /> Water related maps. <br /> 1. 6.4.7 Exhibit G-Major Alluvial Aquifers 48 <br /> 2. 6.4.7 Exhibit G-Major Alluvial Aquifers Sedimentary Bedrock Aquifers Colorado Plateaus Region 49 <br /> 3. 6.4.7 Exhibit G-Major Alluvial Aquifers Sedimentary Bedrock Aquifers Laramide Basins 50 <br /> 4. 6.4.7 Exhibit G-Managed Aquifer Recharge Map 51 <br /> 5. 6.4.7 Exhibit G- Critical Watershed Area 52 <br /> 47 <br /> HARDROCK/METAL MINING REGULAR(112)APPLICATION Au Pt Industries LLC I PO Box 1424-Edwards,Colorado 81632 1970 306 1 784 <br />
