Every possible means wilt be taken to minimize any possible disturbance to the hydrologic <br />balance by exposing only minimal amounts of surface area at any given time. Effort:; will be <br />made to keep alI sloping at 3:1 or less during the mining operation. The soli in the area of the pit <br />is a fast draining type and run off should not be a problem, but if needed any area that shows <br />signs of erosion will be seeded with a fast growing seed mixture to stabilize it. <br />The primary commodities will be sand and gravel with no secondary. <br />EXHIBIT D <br />Reclamation Plan <br />Reclamation of the area will be on going during the life of the operation with sloping and planting <br />as areas of the pit are completed with the removal of the material. Sloping will be at 3:1 or less as <br />these areas of the pit are mined out, Topsoil and overburden will be salvaged and stockpiled for <br />use is reclaiming the area and wilt be spread at a depth of 6 inches and chiseled in along with any <br />augmentation recommend by the N.RC.S. If there is not sufficient topsoil in the area to be <br />stockpile for reclamation it will be imported. Stockpiles will be seeded, if needed; with a fast <br />growing seed such as Prosso millet to help stabilized the slopes as wel! as the stockpile until <br />reclamation commences following the recommended plan by the N.R.C.S, if revegetation does <br />not occur on it own. <br />There will be no cottstructioa of any structtae on the property, therefore no buildings will be left, <br />and there will be no depressions left that would leave a pond area, unless the landowner should <br />request a berm ~ depression be left to hold water for livestock. <br />Every effort will be made to maintain the hydrological balance to minimize the amount of <br />exposed surface as mining moves from the south to the ttorth. The soil in the areas is porous and <br />should drain a~ normal precipitation. Any planting that does take place will follow the <br />recommendations of the NRCS to inchuie any augmenting prior to planting. <br />EXHIBIT F <br />Aa A.P.E.N. permit is the only other required permit for this operation and an application was <br />submitted prior to this permit. <br />EXHIBIT H <br />The town of Genoa Colorado is located I.5 miles to the east of the area. Phone number is 719- <br />763-2313, Address of 305 Main Genoa, Colorado 80818. <br />EXHIBTT L <br />There are two fences located within 200 feet of the operation. They will not be adversely affected <br />by this operation nor will the stability be affected, as the major part of mining wilt be away fmm <br />
