EXHIBIT A - Legal Description See General Location N,ap marked 14ap No. 1 - Operation is located wholly within the N. E. yb of the S. W. yG of Sec. 20 - TWP 39N-R. 8E. of N.M.P.M. E:{HIBIT B - Mining Plan - See Map marked flap No. 2 1. Mined land is first stripped by means of bull-dozer or carryalls. The overburden is either stock-piled for future use or used for level- ing and filling of existing low spots. 2. Excavation is then done by a dragline loading material on to dump trucks hauled to stock piles near processing plant. 3. The material is then processed by crushing - washing and screening into various sizes as required for our concrete and gravel sales opera- tion. This finished material is stock piled by means of belts and loaders near our concrete batch plant. EXHIBIT C - See Map marked Map No. 2 EXHIBIT D _ Wildlife, 67ater Resources, Vegetation and Soils Information Wildlife - See enclosed letter and information provided by the Colorado Division of Wildlife and a letter on fish possibilities by Mr. Floyd Getz, local Fieh Hatchery owner and former member of Colorado State Fish and Wildlife Board. Also, see enclosed information from aerial photos from Soil Conservation Service. We wish to point out that even though wehhve only a 4.0 Acre lake at the present time in the affected area, we own surrounding property of approxi- mately 158 Acres. This land is typical river bottom land with sloughs, low lands and lakes from prior gravel pits. In normal years, this land contains ample water and provides fine habitat for ducks and geese. Herds of deer feed on our Alfalfa and pastures most of the years. Fish will thrive in the ponds left by the gravel operations. In a short time moss forms and fresh water shrimp, snails and bugs seem to thrive in the moss. Some of the old lakes on other parts of the property have been stocked and provide fishing for our employees and friends. 1n normal years, our sub-table is quite high - sometimes as high as 12" from the surface. Due to the high percalation factor of the gravel, most of the surface water gets back to the Rio Grande River as return flow. The land has 20 shares of Rio Grande Canal Water plus 2 active pump wells for irrigation of the Alfalfa and pasture. In normal years, this is ade- quate for two cuttings of Alfalfa and supports about 25 pairs of cattle. This year, however, we had very little river water, and the pumps are not adequate to support the land, As a result, we anticipate only one short cutting of hay and very little pasture.
