Therefore, exposure of ground <br /> water must not occur during or after mining operations. <br />® The proposed operation will consume ground water by: ®evaporation, ®dust control, <br /> reclamation, ® water removed in the mined product, ® processing, ® other:.Mixing <br /> concrete/asphalt. Prior to initiation of these uses of ground water, the applicant will need to obtain <br /> either a gravel pit or other type of well permit, as applicable. <br />® Prior to approving a well permit, the applicant must conduct a field inspection of the site and <br />document the locations of all wells within 600 feet of the permit area. The applicant must then <br />obtain a waiver of objection from all well owners with wells within 600 feet of the permit area or <br />requesta hearing before the State Engineer. <br />^ Other: <br />COMMENTS: The pit is located in a nan-critical area; therefore, an augmentation plan is not required for <br />this application . The location may become over appropriated in the future, which could require curtailment <br />of activities until an augmentation plan is approved if there is injury to senior water rights in the future. The <br />applicant claims to have water rights available from the Animas Valley Consolidated Ditch for use with this <br />project, if required. The applicant has also stated that an application for the well permit has been submitted. <br />
