<br />Access Road (haul road): <br />A haul road shall be constructed accessing the <br />northern boundary of the proposed mine area from <br />Colorado Highway 14. At the proposed intersection <br />of the haul road and the Highway 14 borrow ditch, a <br />drainage culvert pipe (CMP), not less than 24 <br />inches in diameter, will be installed. <br />The haul road will be removed and reclaimed <br />after mining operations are completed unless the <br />landowner (Colorado State Land Board) <br />requests/approves, it remains for permanent access. <br />Fencing/Boundary: <br />Approved fencing will be installed along the <br />west, south and east proposed permit boundary. The <br />east and west boundary fences will intersect with <br />the existing Colorado Highway 14 right-of-way <br />fence. Removal of the fences will be executed at <br />the conclusion of the final reclamation phase. <br />Final Reclamation <br />The final reclamation phase is scheduled to be concluded <br />by or before the year 2005. <br />Soils information and vegetation description used for the <br />site is enclosed in Exhibit "B" . The data is from the Jackson <br />County Soil Survey and the Field Office Technical Guide <br />respectively using "Cabin" and "Randman" sandy loams <br />specifications. Soil samples extracted from the site by the <br />operator indicate an average of approximately 16 inches of soil <br />cover, i.e., 4 inches of topsoil and approximately 12 inches of <br />subsoil. <br />After mining operations are completed, soil from the <br />respective stockpiles will be placed, spread and graded on the <br />final remaining, disturbed Stage area. Topsoil replacement will be <br />scheduled so that seeding can be executed immediately to deter wind <br />or other erosion effects. <br />The recommended seed mix for the site is enclosed in <br />Exhibit "B". <br />4 <br />
