// PAGE 2 <br />EXHIBIT G <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Raptor Materials, LLC Cogburn Sand, Gravel, and Reservoir Project February 2025 <br />A Regular Impact (112) Construction Permit Application – Colorado Division of Reclamation Mining and Safety, Office of Mined Land Reclamation <br />Subsection A Through C <br />(a) Locate on the map (in Exhibit C) tributary water courses, wells, springs, stock water ponds, <br />reservoirs, and ditches on the affected land and on adjacent lands where such structures may be <br />affected by the proposed mining operations; <br /> <br />Please refer to Exhibit C-1: Existing Conditions Map. Wells are also shown on Exhibit G: Water <br />Information Map and a table providing well details is included as an addendum to this Exhibit G. <br /> <br />(b) Identify all known aquifers; and <br /> <br />The known aquifer under the site is the stream alluvium. <br /> <br />(c) Submit a brief statement or plan showing how water from de-watering operations or from runoff <br />from disturbed areas, piled material and operating surfaces will be managed to protect against <br />pollution of either surface or groundwater (and, where applicable, control pollution in a manner that <br />is consistent with water quality discharge permits), both during and after the operation. <br /> <br />Discharge water will be dissipated with hard surface riprap or established grassed waterways. Other <br />waters are retained by internal pit drainage, directed by vegetated berms or established waterways <br />or through the maintenance or establishment of a stabilizing cover of vegetation, or as otherwise <br />established under an approved Colorado Department of Health stormwater permit and/or <br />stormwater discharge permit. <br /> <br />Stockpiling of soil, overburden, or product above the existing ground elevation will not occur in a <br />manner understood to obstruct flood waters where they might occur within the existing floodplain. It <br />is understood and agreed here-in that their longitudinal dimensions if they occur there should <br />extend parallel to anticipated flood flows where they exceed a cone or other shape that might find <br />its existence contrary to intent by volume beyond that which could be understood to be temporary, <br />or transitory; especially outside of seasonality where flooding might be more reasonably anticipated. <br /> <br />Information showing baseline piezometer well readings and respective locations immediately follow <br />this page. A groundwater monitoring plan has been prepared for the Cogburn project and is <br />attached as an addendum to this Exhibit G. <br /> <br />SECTION 3 <br />The Operator/Applicant shall provide an estimate of the project water requirements including flow rates and <br />annual volumes for the development, mining and reclamation phases of the project. <br /> <br />The three components of the project water requirements are water removed for dust control, water removed <br />with the product, and evaporation from exposed ground water. Dust will be controlled using truck sprinklers, <br />and the estimated frequency is one to ten loads per day depending upon field conditions. Dust will be <br />controlled using truck sprinklers, and the estimated frequency varies daily according to seasonal influences <br />of rain, snow, freezing, and temperatures (Refer to Seasonal Temperatures and Precipitation. At 3,000 <br />gallons of truck capacity, the annual demand is 10.6 acre-feet.
