<br />Runoff Control <br /> <br />The proposed gravel pits arc zero-discharge operations, and all precipitation runoff into <br /> <br />• <br />the pits and water originating from seeps in the gravel layers, iC any, will be intercepted and <br />directed to sumps, Crom which it will be pumped to [he settling and storage ponds. The location <br />oC the:se sumps will be shifted Crom time to time as mining and backtilling proceeds, but at no <br />time will water from the gravel operation be discharged into natural drainages. Dewatering <br />trenches will be dug around the areas to be mined so as [o divert runoff around them, and to <br />minimize the impact on surface water systems within the affected areas. <br />5 <br />
