CRUSHING AND STOCKPILE AREAS -The excavated gravel resource is crushed and stockpiled
according to size within the extraction area. Maximum processing is approximately 3,000 tons per day.
Since a portable crusher is used, the location of the gushing operation changes as the mining proceeds
across the resource area. Crushing apparatus wilt be operated under the stipulations contained within
the Construction (Air) Permit issued by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.
Approximately 20,000 tons of used asphalt pavement and concrete rubble may also be stockpiled within
the extraction area for future gushing. Once the asphalt and congete are gushed to proper size, it is
stockpiled for use as recycled materials in new construction.
HAUL ROAD -Private drive access to the site is gained from River Road which is welt maintained and in
good repair. Anew 150 foot long paved surtace haul road will be constructed between the roadway and
the mine site together with a new 750 foot long acceleration lane along the south side of River Road. The
alignment of the haul route extends to the mine floor and is shown on the accompanying Mining Plan
Map.
The haul road location will not change between the point at which it reaches the mine floor and River
Road, unfit the fast phase of mining occurs.
The following minimum standards will be incorporated into the haul road construction ~" s.
~~~i~
• 28 foot paved width with 3 foot gravel shoulders
• Eight inches of wmpacted Class B Aggregate Base Course surtace ®7 ~
• SD foot returns
• 18 inch culvert ~~nd.Lu~tti~Gcr~dCt_ ,,
Stop sign IA6viglon of Itititt 8, C.=v,~9Y
• Any other improvements required by Mesa County's Access Permit
Speed limit and other traffic control signs will be installed along the entire length of the haul road and
within the mine site. Water will be used on a continual basis to control dust on the haul road and within
the mining area.
PETROLEUM STORAGE- There will be no permanent storage of fuel on the site. However, a 10,000
gallon portably diesel fuel tank will be located near the gravel crushing unit when it is present. All fuel will
be stored in above ground steel tank(s) and will have impervious lined containment dikes to prevent any
discharges of fuel from leaving the site or percolating into the ground. The compacted soil dikes are to be
constructed in a fashion to contain at least 110 percent of the volume of the largest fuel storage vessel
within the containment area. A policy for the handling and disposal of hazardous waste will be
established for the operation. A key element of the policy will indude annual !raining for all workers at the
fadlity for spill containment and controls in the event that a spill should occur. Another component of the
policy includes notfication of appropriate regulatory agendes when a release of more than 25 gallons of a
petroleum product occurs. A reportable spill of any toxic or hazardous substance (including spill of
petroleum products) within the permit area are reportable to any Division of the Colorado Department of
Public Health and the Environment, the naiional Response Center, the Colorado Emergency Planning
Commission, a local Emergency Planning Commission, a locel Emergency Planning Committee, or the
Sate Oil Inspector. The operator shall notify the Office of a reportable spill within the pennR area using
the same timeframe required by the permit, license, notice, Act, Rule or Regulation governing the
reporting of the spill to the appropriate agency. Notice of a reportable spill shall be Faxed to: Minerals
Program Supervisor, Division of Minerals and Geology, FAX [phone]. The FAX shall include a
call-back number of a responsible company ofricial for DMG staff to use as a contact.
