g. (i) See Reclamation Plan and Details (Attached • plan sheet as Exhibit F) . (ii) See Exhibit AA - Applicant to comply with SCS recommendations . (iii) Fertilization will be accomplished in accordance with SCS recommendations at time of seeding operations . (iv) See Exhibit E , paragraph c. 5 (v) See Exhibit E , paragraph c. 4 EXHIBIT F - Reclamation Plan Map - See attached map EXHIBIT G - Water Information The operation upon reclamation is expected to have a very minimal effect upon other water systems in the area since no consumption of water occurs . The affect of impoundment , however, of ground water and excess drainage will tend to increase the water table of the pasturelands immediately adjacent to the east , which is now an area of high water table. During the mining operation, pumping of the excavated area in Phase II has caused a lowering of the water table in those adjoining lands to the east . Part of the • water pumped for dewatering is diverted to the ad- joining pasture land, as needed, in accordance with a verbal agreement . Because the lands in the vicinity are all underlain with gravel and sand above a sand- stone shale, the entire gravel strata becomes an acquifer for a great amount of water which can , in effect, be considered an extension of St . Vrain Creek, although the exact flow rate remains unrecorded and unmeasured. All water features are shown on Exhibits C, D F, F of the attached maps . No pollution of either the ground or surface water is anticipated during the mining operation or upon completion of the reclamation. No project water is consumed as a result of the mining operation. Water rights of the property are shown in Exhibit JJ . EXHIBIT H - Wildlife - See Exhibit BB EXHIBIT I - Soils - See Exhibit AA EXHIBIT J - Vegetative - See Exhibit AA 6 of 7
