• <br />raga material (sandstone) to the m111 size ( - 8") and the conveyors will put <br />i. into stockpiles for trucking to operator's sand processing plant at <br />Laporte, Colorado. The primary crusher and conveyors are shown on Exhibit E <br />itt RED. No underground mining will be conducted on the site. <br />G. Ari open pit excavation with approximate dimensions of 200' x 2000' is shown <br />or: Exhibit E. The sandstone material will be drilled and blasted. Mining <br />will occur by use of vertical faces. The side walls will be benched or <br />sloped as needed or necessary for safety precautions and/or reclamation. <br />7. An existing ranch trail will be used to provide access to the site. The <br />ranch [rail is approximately 12' wide and 5,000' in length to the intersec- <br />tion of the Northern Colorado Rod and Cun Club access road. (Area equals <br />1.~+ acres.) No grade improvements will be made. Base course material will <br />he spread to provide an all weather surface. <br />8. Wager :s not available on the property- Water will not be necessary in the <br />conctucring of mining other than as may be required for dust suppression. <br />9. Operator does not anticipate or reasonably expect to intercept or disturb <br />any groundwater or surface water, The mine site itself is just below the <br />crest of a relatively steep hillside with no evidence of any water anywhere <br />in the general vicinity. It is not likely that a heavy rainfall will wash <br />sediment from the mine site. There will be no runoff. <br />10. It is not reasonably likely that under any circumstances, operator would in- <br />tec-r'er~• with groundwater or surface water or underground aquifers, The <br />deprlt uF the usable deposits of approximately 50' is well above any ground <br />water or aquifers. Operator did not come into contact with any ground wa- <br />ter or aquifers tahen conducting exploration on the property through core <br />drilling. This exploration was undec permit from the State of Colorado. <br />11. See Item No. 5 above. In addition, operator will not be using any chemicals <br />at ttie mining site. This mining operation will involve Che extraction of a <br />naturally occurring sandstone and limited crushing to ( - $") with extensive <br />off-:site processing at operator's Laporte sandplant, No tailing ponds, <br />heap:;, or vats are part of the mining plan. <br />12. Operator is required to obtain the following permits: <br />A. Limited Impact Mining Permit (110(2)). <br />B. Application fo r Zoning Action - Larimer County. <br />C. Air Pollution Emission Permit - Colorado Department of Health. <br />1. Jaw crusher <br />?. Fugitive dust <br />3-2 <br />
