LISTS OF OTHER PERMITS AND LICENSES REQUIItED EI~1~IT F <br />The following permits are needed for the site: <br />1) County (special use) approval -Delta County Planning office has already approved the <br />application as an extension of the existing 8.43 acre pit (Famsworth #2 Pit). <br />2) CDPHE combined storm water/process water dischazge permit is needed from The Colorado <br />Department of Public Health and Environment since water will be pumped from the dewatering <br />trench into the wetland. This permit is being applied for. <br />3) No fugitive air emissions permit is needed since the site will mine less than 70,000 tons per year <br />and the operation will be wet in nature. Also, all processing will be done on the existing River <br />Bottom Pit immediately north of the river from this location. An APEN form has been filed with <br />CDPHE Air Quality Control to verify that the emissions are low enough that a permit is not <br />needed. <br />4) The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers 404 Permit is required for the temporary removal and <br />restoration of wetlands. The COE will require an individual wetlands permit if the existing pond is <br />removed. For this reason, a nationwide permit is being initially sought which would avoid the <br />pond. The pond can only be mined at a later date if the individual permit is obtained. The bridge <br />crossing may be also be accomplished through a nationwide permit. <br />5) An application is being filed with the Division of Water Resources for a Gravel Well Permit to <br />allow for pit pumping and lake evaporation once the site is reclaimed. This permit includes an <br />augmentation plan and substitute water supply plan for the evaporation from the lake. <br />6) A State Highway access permit is not needed since the material sold from this operation will be <br />brought to market by truck using the existing access for the River Bottom Pit on State Highway <br />133. There will not be increased traffic on the road while the North Fork Pit is mined. The <br />Farnsworth #2 Pit will not sell any material while United is active on the site. <br />North Fork Pit Mazch 04 38 <br />
