<br />-z- <br />minimum, you must give a description of the water resources in the area of the proposed operation. <br />Identify any streams, springs, lakes, stock water ponds, ditches, reservoirs, and aquifers which would <br />receive drainage directly from the affected area. Provide any information available from publications <br />or monitoring data on flow rates, water table elevations and water quality conditions. <br />EXHIBIT C - Mining Pfau (Rule 6.3.3): (l) The purpose of the mining plan is to describe how <br />mining will affect the permit area for the duration of the operation. This plan must be correlated to <br />Exhibit E -Map. The description of the mining plan must be adequate to satisfy the requirements of <br />Section 3. I and demonstrate compliance with Rule 3. At a minimum, you must include the following <br />information: <br />(a) specify the estimated dates that mining will commence and end; <br />(b) the estimated depth to which soil, suitable as a plant growth medium, will be salvaged <br />for use in the reclamation process. This description must be consistent with information provided in <br />Exhibit B. Sufficient soil must be salvaged to meet the vegetation establishment criteria of Subsection <br />3.l.l0. If plant growth medium is not reapplied on a graded area immediately after salvage, then you <br />must specify how the topsoil will be stockpiled and stabilized with a vegetative cover until used in <br />reclamation. Plant growth medium stockpiles must be located separate from other stockpiles, out of the <br />way of mine traffic and out of stream channels or drainageways. The location of plant growth medium <br />stockpiles must be shown on Exhibit E -Map; <br />(c) specify the thickness of overburden or quantity of waste rock, if any, to be removed to <br />reach the deposit. The location of any overburden stockpiles or waste rock fills must be shown on <br />Exhibit E -Map; <br />(d) specify the thickness of the deposit to be mined; <br />(e) describe the major components of the mining operation such as: roads and access <br />routes, pit, office, shop/maintenance buildings, plant, processing facilities, and any underground <br />openings such as adits or ventilation facilities. These components must be located on Exhibit E -Map; <br />(f) specify the dimensions of any significant disturbances to the land surface such as pit <br />excavations, mine benches, impoundments, stockpiles, waste rock disposal areas, etc; <br />(g) specify the dimensions of any existing or proposed roads that will be used for the <br />mining operation. Describe any improvements necessary on existing roads and the specifications to be <br />used in the construction of new roads. New or improved roads must be included as part of the <br />permitted acreage. Describe any associated drainage and runoff conveyance structures to include <br />sufficient information to evaluate structure sizing; <br />(h) specify how much water will be used in conjunction with the operation, and the source <br />of this water; <br />(i) if groundwater will be encountered and/or surface water intercepted or disturbed, <br />describe how mining will affect the quantity and quality of the surface or groundwater and the methods <br />to be used to minimize disturbance to the surface and groundwater systems including proposed <br />dewatering, sediment-containment or chemical treatment systems, storm water run-off controls, and <br />
