<br />Exhibit G -Water Information <br />(1) During both mining and reclamation no impact on Bound water is anticipated. We will not expose <br />any ground water during mining and reclamation activities. <br />(2) Impact on surface water: <br />(a) Surface drainage from the site presently occurs in [he area between Phase 1 and II and from <br />the overburden stockpile area adjacent to Phase 1. An intermittent stream is east of the affected land, however, <br />no impact on this intermittent stream and/or its drainage is anticipated. <br />(b) See page 4 "water supply" from Soil Survey of Rio Blanco County Area Colorado as <br />prepared by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Soil Conservation Service, Issued May 1982 included in <br />Exhibit K. <br />(c) The pit is a terrace gravel deposit and no de-watering is necessary. Water will only be needed <br />for dust suppression during processing. No washing operation is planned. Water will be delivered to the site in <br />water wcks and held in storage tanks. <br />(3) We estimate that water used during processing is approximately 2 gallons per ton of finished crushed <br />product. Daily wnsumption is estimated at 4,000 gallons of water or approximately 2 loads of water in a <br />typical water truck. Water will be delivered to the processing plant in water Wcks and held in storage tanks. <br />Water is distributed through a dust suppression system on the processing plan[. <br />(4) See (3) above. <br />(5) No NPDES permit is required for this operation <br />
