within the boundary of the permit area.
' EXHIBIT B Mining Plan
Mining Procedure (Dry Alluvial Operation). Clearing the
site of vegetation, topsoil and overburden is not required since
' the gravel deposit is at the surface and topsoil and overburden
were cleared in a previous operation. Front-end loaders will
enter the permit area via the existing access road from the south
' and will be used to excavate the gravel deposit. Trommel or
vibrating screens will be used to clean the gravel on site. The
cleaned gravel will be dumped in heavy trucks to be hauled from
' the site. Existing topsoil and overburden piles will not be
disturbed during mining.
' The two gravel deposits shown in Figure 1 will be mined.
Other areas within the permit area (excluding the overburden and
topsoil stockpiles) will also be mined. Total material extracted
' will be less than 70,000 tons per year.
