Exhibit I CMLRB 112 Permit Application <br />Agile Stone Systems, Inc. <br />This unit will be disturbed by the sandstone and granite mining operations. The Louviers <br />soil is forming in residuum from shale and siltstone and covers about 40 % of the unit. <br />This soil is characterized by very channery clay looms over clays to a depth of 16". It is <br />neutral to mildly alkaline, non-effervescent, non-saline, and non-sodic. The effective <br />rooting depth is 10 to 20". <br />The Travessilla soil is forming in residuum primarily from sandstone and comprises <br />approximately 35 % of this unit. This soil is typically channery sandy foams and sandy <br />looms to hard sandstone bedrock at 9". It is non- to strongly effervescent, mildly <br />alkaline, nonsaline, and nonsodic. The effective rooting depth is 4 to 20". The hazard of <br />water erosion is very high. <br />Otero fine sandy loam, 3 to 8% slopes <br />This map unit consists of well drained soils forming in alluvium and eolian parent <br />materials on side slopes and fans. This map unit is not proposed to be disturbed. The <br />Kim soil, about 95 percent of the unit, is characterized by loamy fine sand and fine sandy <br />loam textures, strong effervescence, and moderate alkalinity to a depth of 60". The <br />coarse fragment content less than 5 % throughout the profile. The effective rooting depth <br />is 60" or more. This soil is non-saline and non-sodic. The hazard of water erosion is <br />slight to high. <br />Nunn clay loam, 0 to 2% slopes <br />• This map unit consists of well drained soils forming on fans and fan terraces in loess and <br />alluvium and is not scheduled for disturbance. The Nunn soil, making up about 90 % of <br />the unit, is typically characterized by clay loam textures to a depth of 60". This soil is <br />neutral to moderately alkaline, non- to strongly effervescent, and has a coarse fragment <br />content less than 5 % throughout the profile. The effective rooting depth is 60" or more. <br />This soil isnon-saline and non-sodic. The hazard of water erosion is slight. <br />Riverwash <br />The Riverwash unit occurs along the borders of Tallahassee Creek in the northern half of <br />the project area and would have limited disturbance from the haul road. Typically, the <br />majority of this map unit is barren and consists of alluvial sand, gravel, and cobbles <br />which are subject to scouring and alluvial deposition. Deeper soils occur as a part of this <br />unit in small defined areas. The soils of this unit are non-saline and non-sodic. <br />Royal Gorge very gravelly sandy clay loam, 25 to 50% slopes <br />Overlying mountainsides, this unit consists of shallow, well drained soils. It is scheduled <br />for disturbance by the granite mining operation. The Roygorge soil is forming in <br />residuum from gneiss and granite and covers approximately 85% of the unit. This soil is <br />typically characterized by very gravelly sandy clay foams over an indurated horizon at 11 <br />to 12". It is neutral, non-effervescent, non-saline, and non-sodic. Coarse fragment <br />content ranges from 50 to 55% throughout the profile. The effective rooting depth is 8 to <br />20". <br />2 <br />
