2. Of the acreage permitted, what is the total acreage to be disturbed?
3. Will disturbance be limited to the actual quarry area and access road

verify the existence of arty undisturbed gutter to be maintained between
the quarry and the draw.

fifteen feet in height must remain up on final reclamation. How will
