• <br />EXHIBIT G: Water Information <br />AGRI - DLD Gravel Pit <br />There is an intermittent drainage running east-west, north of the gravel pit boundary. The <br />affected mining area will not come any closer [o the wash than 200 feet. There is another <br />drainage located southwest of the pit boundary. This drainage is approximately 200 feet from <br />the mine boundary and will not be directly impacted by mining operations, except to receive <br />flows that have been through a detention pond. In general, the operation wilt not affect <br />surface or groundwater systems, and no dewatering will take place. <br />Any water entering the mine from surrounding property runoff shall be channeled through the <br />center of the pit where it will gather in one of two detention ponds: one pond on the eastern <br />border and one in the southwestern corner. The detention ponds shall be constructed with <br />slopes of 2H:1 V at the steepest, except from 5' above to 10' below the expected waterline, <br />where the slopes will not be steeper than 3H:1 V. If the detention ponds fill to the point of <br />overflowing, the filtered water will drain into the existing drainage below the ponds. For <br />phase 7, runoff waters will be directed into the proposed detention pond and then drain in <br />existing drainageways. <br />Projected water requirements by volume for the development stage of the operation will be <br />approximately 2000 gallons per day (gpd) for dust control. The mining operation itself will <br />use approximately 1000 gpd for dust control and 2500 gpd for the wash plant at full operation. <br />Reclamation efforts should require approximately 1000 gpd to control dust. Estimate of total <br />amounts will vary according to operation and market. Water supply will be trucked to the site <br />unless other water resources near the site can be developed in the future. A Storm Water <br />discharge permit is being sought, an NPDES permit will not be necessary. <br />
