~- - • • :- =' ~ TUTTLE APPLEGATE, INC. Consultants for Land and Resource Development Mr. Daniel Hernandez Mined Land Reclamation Division October 9, 1990 Page 2 /~'he mining lease which the operator has with the landowner (/ implies permission to operate closer than 200 feet from the dikes. In addition, these dikes are located on the east side of the power transmission line and will not be affected by the mining operation. 3. The existing utility lines are some 40 to 50 feet off the ground. The only piece of equipment on our list able to hit these utility lines would be the excavator or the dragline. By positioning the piece of equipment in relation to the / stockpiles and the powerlines and requiring certain equipment ~/ movement, contact with the utility lines will be avoided. /4. Hased on the survey performed by the licensed land surveyor and site observation, there are no underground structures or pipelines on the property. 5. The permit boundary is based on the land ownership by Ed Perry. Asphalt Paving Co. has leased the entire parcel from Mr. Perry. In order to avoid additional expenses of surveying a permit boundary separate from the property line, the original land survey is being used. /6. We will provide proposed final contours on the Reclamation Plan in five foot contour intervals. The revised Reclamation Plan will be submitted under separate cover. ,Y. It is indeed true that a portion of the stockpiled material V may need to be re-handled prior to final placement. Our revised Exhibit C (included under separate cover) locates the stockpiles and also indicates which stockpiles are for topsoil. Topsoil stockpiles are located beyond the limits of mining so they will not be disturbed or re-handled prior to final reclamation. ~. Our calculations indicate there are approximately 215,000 cubic yards of overburden which will be moved during the mining operation. Our figure is less than yours because our revised Mining Plan avoids filling of wetland areas by reducing the area of disturbance. Since the property will be mined at 3:1 side slopes, no backfilling is necessary.
