• ROCKY MOUNTAIN MATERIALS <br /> EXHIBIT G: WATER INFORMATION <br /> Water Used in Conjunction With the Operation <br /> Aggregate washing is not planned for the initial operation of the mine. However, in the <br /> future aggregate washing maybe desirable. If so, water will be purchased or developed. <br /> Water for dust control will be purchased from municipal sources off-site during the <br /> operation. <br /> Effect of the Mining Operation on Surface or Underground Water <br /> The elevation of the mine floor is approximately 100' above State Highway 67. The <br /> proposed mine is essentially on a level plain working away from the steep slopes to the <br /> lower plains. The Mining Plan mentions that a berm will be placed around any mining <br /> activity to contain run-off and protect slopes from erosion. Existing roads that traverse <br /> the slopes will be provided with an adjacent drainage ditch with velocity control <br /> structures to prevent ditch erosion. <br /> • Compliance with Colorado Water Laws <br /> There is no evidence at this time that mining activity will intercept any ground water <br /> flows or surface flows to tributaries of the public stream systems. No empoundments are <br /> anticipated at the present time. <br />
