• EXHIBIT D <br />lfaTII~IG PLAN <br />The Peters Pit No. 2 is located in north central Weld County. <br />Presently, there is a small gravel pit to the east of the proposed <br />site, the existing Peters Pit. (4.02 acres) The topsoil and <br />overburden will be excavated and stockpiled to be used for reclamation <br />purposes. The removal of topsoil will be accomplished with a scrapers. <br />Weld County has calculated that a maximum of 1-2 foot of topsoil and <br />overburden exists. The gravel from this location is suitable for <br />crushing and therefore, one of the better sources of material in this <br />central area. <br />Operation of the pit will be intermittent. The county, as budgeted or <br />as a specific need arises, will move equipment to the site. The <br />material will be processed and hauled to the jobsite. Normally, all <br />material excavated and processed will be removed from the site and no <br />major stockpile will remain. Operating equipment will consist of <br />dozers, scrapers, loaders, trucks and portable crusher. <br />Weld County plans to continue the mining as it has been done <br />previously, moving into the eastern face of the site, across its <br />north-south width. Existing topsoil will be removed from the area to <br />• be mined and placed on the previously exposed and finished pit area. <br />The mining and processing will then take place. As each block of <br />mining is completed, the pit edges will be finished to a 4:1 slope. <br />The operation will be completely dry as there is no surface or ground <br />water on the site. <br />• <br />
