The thicV::ness of overburden stripping i.s anti.cipated to be <br />minimal due tv close prv:;.imity of the gr-avel reserves to <br />the ground surface. Any material unsuitable for topsoil <br />will 6e utilized in hacl::f.ill operations in previously <br />mined areas. <br />D. E;;ploratory test=~ have indicated that the thic4::ness of <br />gravel deposits to be mined vary fr-am ?1 feet an the south <br />side of the project tv 47 feet on the north side of the <br />project. Redrac{! lays directly underneath the exie.t.ing <br />gravel reserves. Gravel will he removed tv 6edroci:: or t.o <br />levels that permit feasi67.e econam.ic recaverabi.lity. <br />E. The proposed main access to the site will be at milepost. <br />126.E (appro;;imately) on LJ.S. Highway 40. Interior <br />accesses are as described in the mining plan maps. <br />F.

General. Min.inv Methods and Uyerations <br />A. Appra:;.irnately 12 'to 24 inches o~f topsoil will be s~t.ripped <br />from the mining and operations areas and stoc4::piled in <br />main locations: sou±h of the south right-efi-way fence of <br />the Denver and Rio Grande 4lestern Railroad Co., al.ang the <br />east ban4:: of the e~:isting poncl and in an area. north of the <br />north ban4: of the Yampa River. T'he north topsoil. stor_4:- <br />piles along the north fence line will r_reate a visual and <br />noise abatement buffer zone from U.S. Highway 4~~ traffic. <br />The south topsail stock:piles will be placed so that an <br />undisturbed area will be left between the north banl: o~f the <br />Yampa River and the topsoil stocF:pi.les. This will. create a <br />visual. and noise abatement huffer zone for the Yampa River <br />channel area as well as create= a water control devi.cc to <br />prevent river water from flooding the construction area. <br />Ducl:el=_; Construction, Inc. dba Yampa Aggregates <br />4123r:r F'Ol{tt County Rd. #1.^r, Eiteamboat Spring~~, CU 8i~487 <br />
