<br />EXHIBII~ G - Water Information <br />Ground water is very evident throughout this affected area and <br />the surrounding areas as shown on the aerial maps of "Exhibits <br />B - C - F" and the photos of "Exhibit C". <br />During the mining operations it will be necessary to dewater <br />the pit area by use of a large pump. The discharge of this <br />water will be into an adjacent pit that is not heing mined at <br />the same time. After the mining has been completed to the <br />proposed depth, we would anticipate the water depth to be <br />approximately fifteen feet in the lake formed by this mining <br />operation. It has been recommended by local soil conservation <br />specialists that we do not join the existing lake to the newly <br />formed lake after the mining has been completed. <br />As outlined in our Reclamation Plan "Exhibit E", the banks <br />surrounding this lake will be sloped 3:1 to the water level <br />and 2:1 below the water level and the banks seeded with native <br />grasses. <br />This mining operation and the completed reclamation will not <br />affect the present surface drainage of this area or any of the <br />surrounding areas. Also, it will not affect or pollute the <br />_> <br />adjacent Colorado River. <br />The only water to be used during the mining operation will be <br />used for spray bars at the crusher to control dust and will be <br />obtained from the discharge of the dewatering pump. There will <br />not be any water used for a wash plant at this site. <br />EXHIBIT G - Water Information <br />
