<br />EXHIBIT C <br />MINING PLAN <br />ATTACHED Ta NICFa;L GRAVEL PIT APPLICATION FOFM <br />1. Mining will cottmextce as soon as the permit is approved by the Mined Iand <br />Reclamation Division of the Colorado Department of Resources. it is <br />anticpated that mining will end on or before five years from the date of <br />beginning, and the County will probably continue use on a limited basis as <br />long as gravel is available. <br />2. The top 12 inches of topsoil will be salvaged and will be set aside and <br />stockpiled for reclamation purposes. Overburden will be stockpiled on the up <br />side of the excavation away frcan Vega Creek. The stockpile will be at the <br />area marked "point of beginning". <br />3. The overburden is estimated to be approximately one foot and we do not <br />anticipate any waste rock or other obstructions which will need to be retroved <br />to get at the gravel itself. <br />4. The exact thickness of the deposit is unknown and it will vary fran point <br />to point, but is estimated to be six to ten feet. <br />5. The access road is froth Highway 71, shown on Exhibit E with exact <br />dimensions included in the lease agreanent with the land owner. The County <br />does not plan any structures or other facilities at the site. 't`hey will <br />simply move in the loader, and trucks will be loaded directly froth the gravel <br />deposit, insofar as possible. <br />6. There will be no significant disturbance to the land surface, other than <br />the pits themselves and the necessary overburden stockpiled. The access road <br />is a new road and will be constructed solely for County use and will not be <br />surfaced to County road specifications. <br />7. No water will be used in conjunction with the operation. <br />8. We do not anticipate encountering, intercepting or disturbing any surface <br />water. Vega Creek, though named, is dry most of the year. <br />9. We do not anticipate disturbing any existing water rights. <br />10. We do not anticipate that we will do any on site processing. There will <br />be no crushing, straining, washing, mixing or milling. <br />There will be no plant facilities, no tillings or heaps, and no drainage <br />control should be required. <br />
