<br />Wash Plant <br />Schmidt Construction Company is proposing to introduce a portable <br />washer plant at our Vollmer Pit, County Special Use Permit #AL-82-18. <br />The wash plant will be used to remove deleterious materials from <br />our native aggregate resource to better meet recent technical revisions <br />to ashalt mix designs. In order to use the wash plant (see detailed drawings), <br />we will install two one-acre ponds. <br />One pond will contain six acre-feet of clear water, which will be <br />pumped into our wash plant to remove unwanted sediments. <br />The other pond will be our discharge pond, collecting the reject <br />materials trapped in water. As these materials are directed into the <br />pond, the sediments will migrate to the bottom. The top portion of water <br />shall flow over and through the overflow chute to be recycled in the clear <br />O water pond. See our attached drawings. <br />The sediments will periodically be excavated and spread over a reclaimed <br />area prior to installing topsoil and seeding. <br />Currently, we are contemplating moving 1400 cy per day through this <br />system. <br />O <br />
