EXHIBIT D MINING PLAN(CONT) control and agricultural area maintenance is retained by the farmer. Reclamation will begin once we have enough working area for operations and the section to be reclaimed will not have to be disturbed again. Review of MAP EXHIBIT C-1 - MINING PLAN MAP shows how we expect the site to look as mining and reclamation progress across the mine Note, the floor of the excavation is generally flat and the slopes into the excavated area would be reclaimed 2H to 1V as the area is above water levels and it will provide for more field to be farmed. Please refer to the MINING TIMETABLE for the estimated acreage of each area associated with the mining part of this operation. Mining equipment may include but is not limited to, front-end loaders, scrapers, excavators, dozers, off-road haul trucks, dump trucks and a water truck. Processing equipment may include but is not limited to conveyors, crushers and screen plants. A portable concrete batch and/or portable asphalt batch plant, scale and scale house may be installed and operated at the mine during its life. As much as possible, the surface drainage will be maintained in the same direction as it now exists. The proposed sloping plan for the excavated area should eliminate any concerns of erosion occurring from the site. Most of the water used onsite will be for dust control on haul roads or with sand and gravel processing. Please refer to EXHIBIT G -WATER for the discussion of how water will be used at the site, the estimated yearly needs and the source of said water. The 2 drain pipes that cross under Highway 85 will be main- tained and will continue to allow return flows to reach the river. All interior pit slopes will be maintained with a pit-ward attitude so that historic drainage patterns can be maintained. This same slope management plan will prevent any offsite slides or other disruptions . Isolation berms or ditches will be constructed around the mine as needed to prevent storm- water from contacting the disturbed areas . All stormwater con- tacting the disturbed area will be retained onsite and allowed to evaporate or soak into the underlying gravel. No storm water will be retained on the mine for more than 72 hours . No U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 404 permit is necessary, as mining will not impact waters of the U.S. 8 1/2 Enterprises LLC.
