EXHIBIT G WATER INFORMATION(CONT) <br /> properties . Potential groundwater mounding in the western parcel <br /> will be mitigated by the South Platte River, the Platte Valley <br /> Canal, and the irrigation return flow ditch; and on the eastern <br /> areas by the Platteville Ditch and the installed underdrain. <br /> These existing water features will serve to regulate and balance <br /> groundwater elevations in the alluvium adjacent to the sealed <br /> pits . <br /> The backfilling in Phases 4A, 4B and 5A is not anticipated <br /> to produce any adverse impacts to adjacent properties, since the <br /> phases are unlined areas that will carry ground water around the <br /> backfill . <br /> The operator does not anticipate any long-term post- <br /> reclamation ground water depletions, but if there are any, they <br /> would be replaced through a Colorado Water Court approved Plan of <br /> Augmentation. <br /> L.G. Everist, Inc. has entered into a contract to mine the <br /> gravel and construct the developed water storage reservoirs with <br /> Cannon Land Company. As water storage reservoirs are completed, <br /> they will be turned over to Cannon for further development into <br /> developed water storage reservoirs . L.G. Everist will submit <br /> Technical Revisions to the DRMS if Cannon makes changes prior to <br /> L.G. Everist receiving final reclamation approval and acreage <br /> releases from the Division. <br /> Discharae Permits Surface Water Management <br /> When necessary, ground water will be pumped and discharged <br /> from the Ragsdale Reservoirs mine under a CDPS Permit COG502178 <br /> which the operator has obtained from the Colorado Department of <br /> Public Health and Environment, Water Quality Control Division <br /> (CDPHE-WQCD) . This permit will remain active during the life of <br /> the mine. The discharge points may change as mining progresses <br /> and all necessary changes will be submitted to the WQCD for <br /> modifications to the discharge points . <br /> Runoff from disturbed areas will be managed and controlled <br /> to protect against pollution, of either surface or groundwater <br /> through the implementation best management practices which <br /> include sloping disturbed areas inward toward the site, <br /> vegetating berms and other disturbed areas, and other site- <br /> specific controls as needed. <br /> Estimated Consumptive Water Use <br /> The annual consumptive uses of water for the Ragsdale <br /> Reservoirs mine are estimated to be: <br /> L.G.
