<br />-2- <br />6. If ground water will be encountered and/or surface water intercepted <br />and/or disturbed, describe how mining will affect the quantity and quality of <br />the surface or ground water and the methods to be used to minimize disturbance <br />to the surface and ground water systems including proposed dewatering, <br />sediment-containment or chemical treatment systems. <br />7. Specify how you will comply with applicable Colorado water laws and <br />regulations governing injury to existing water rights. <br />8. Specify whether the deposit/ore will be processed on site. Processing <br />includes crushing, screening, washing, concrete or asphalt mixing, or <br />milling. If the deposit/ore will be processed, then describe the nature of <br />the process, facilities and chemicals utilized. The description should <br />describe the measures to be taken to minimize disturbance to the hydrologic <br />balance, prevent off-site damage, and provide for a stable configuration of <br />the reclaimed area consistent with the proposed future land use. The process <br />area and any structures must be described on Exhibit C - Map. <br />What is the nature of the material beneath the mined stratum? <br />Exhibit C Ma <br />imn <br />1. Outline and label all major surface features to be used in connection <br />with the proposed operation such as: existing and proposed roads, pit <br />boundary, topsoil stockpiles, overburden stockpiles, product stockpiles, waste <br />rock fills, stream channels, buildings, processing plant, ponds, impoundments, <br />diversions, or waste disposal areas. <br />Indicate the direction that mineral extraction will proceed. <br />3. Note the location of any significant, valuable, and permanent man-made <br />structures within 200 feet of the affected area such as: houses, barns, <br />fences, above or below ground utilities, irrigation ditches, maintained or <br />public roads, bridges, wells, pipelines, water storage impoundments, railroad <br />tracks, cemetaries, and communication antennas. A narrative description <br />should be provided in Exhibit B - Site Description. <br />Reclamation Map <br />Indicate the gradient of all reclaimed slopes (horizontal:vertical). <br />2. Note the thickness of replaced overburden. <br />3. Note the thickness of replaced topsoil. <br />4. The contours on the reclamation map indicate that final slopes will be <br />approximately 3:1. However, in the reclamation plan, it is stated that 4:1 <br />slopes will be established, as per Soil Conservation Service recommendations. <br />Please clarify this matter. <br />
