<br />EXHIBIT B <br />NINING PLAN <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />We plan~to set up an open pit gravel operation on the property covered <br />by this application, for ocm own use or for..l~ns}~, Sor~Ch~ prrr~~po.co of <br />extracting river run or pit run gravel. No washing, screening~Erush- <br />ing are planned at this time. <br />Since this area is at the confluence of the Uneompahgre and Gunnison <br />Rivers and floods every few years, there is~ reQ` clam^ble top soil on~ <br />the proposed site. Trees and brush will be remov_ed_onIy 'in the edi- <br />ate area of the pit and access road. <br />Removal of river run gravel will begin in the southeast corner of the <br />proposed area, either by front end loader or small drag line, loaded <br />onto trucks and hauled from the premises. Excavation will proceed <br />westerly across the bottom of area and northerly toward the north bound- <br />ary. Present indications are that less than ]5,000 tons per year will <br />be removed. <br />No water diversion or impoundment will be required for this operation. <br />While groundwater does get within 2 to 4 feet of the surface on occasion, <br />it has been our experience that we can go 8 to 10 feet deep much of the <br />year without encountering ground water. <br />It is our intent to follow the recommendations of the Division of Wild- <br />life as to depth, slope and configuration of the resulting ponds in <br />order to provide fish and wildlife habitat. <br />a <br />f <br />
