EXHIBIT E RECLAMATION PLAN(CONT) 3 . 1 . 12(1996) will be placed at the entrance to this facility upon permit issuance. The material used to create the slopes will be native overbur- den material or clean inert material that will be imported for backfilling. The pit will be reclaimed so that a suitable grade for drainage exists that matches the premining pattern. All surface runoff from reclaimed areas will be directed into the existing drainages around the site. All grading will be done in a manner to control erosion and to protect areas outside the affected lands from slides or other damage. All backfilling and grading will be completed as soon as feasible after mining is completed in any given area. All refuse will be hauled away or disposed of in a manner that will control unsightliness and protect the drainage system from pollution. There are no acid-forming or toxic materials involved in this operation. If petroleum products are stored at the site, it will be done as prescribed by applicable laws. Any storage tanks will be surrounded by a berm or be in self contained facilities ade- quate to retain any fluid spilled should a tank rupture. In addition, there is adequate absorbent materials on site to con- tain any spills that would occur outside the containment struc- ture. There are no drill or auger holes on the land. Maximum slopes will be within the limits set forth in the Rules and Regulations of the Board and will be capable of being traversed by machinery. The operator does not expect prevailing hydrologic conditions to be disturbed. 81/z Enterprises will comply with applicable Colorado water laws and regulations (as the operator understands them) "governing injury to existing water rights to minimize any disturbance which might occur to the prevailing hydrologic bal- ance of the affected land and surrounding area and to the quality and quantity of water in surface and ground-water systems both during and after the mining operation and during reclamation. " Any water used in the operation of the processing plants and for dust control will come from water sources described in WATER- EXHIBIT G. No dredging will take place at this facility, there will be no temporary siltation structures involved in this operation and no mining will be done in a river or waters of the United States or the State of Colorado. A U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Permit is not required for this operation because there are no wetlands on the site that will be disturbed. Retention ponds may be con- structed on the site to collect stormwater before it leaves the 8 1/2 Enterprises LLC. December 9, 2025 Sasaki Pit 22
