I <br /> • • <br /> Exhibit D MINING PLAN (cont) <br /> Mining will then move south of Coffman Road to mine the west part <br /> of the lake being created south of Coffman road. The east slope <br /> between Stage 3 - Part B and Stage 4 - Part B will be left 3h to <br /> lv so that dewatering can be suspended on the western area until <br /> mining ends in Stage 4 - Part A. When mining progresses into <br /> Stage 4 - Part B this slope will be removed so a single lake is <br /> created. The 25 foot setbacks from the property lines will be <br /> maintained on the new areas. Please refer to Map Exhibit Fn to <br /> see the final configuration of the areas north of the river. <br /> These changes will add 128.23 acres t to the usable area in <br /> the mine. of this 87 .02 acres will be lake, 7.72 acres i will be <br /> roads, and 34.84 acres i will be revegetated. But, as will be <br /> explained below, it will only change the permitted area by 89 .55 <br /> acres t because some existing permit area is being removed. The <br /> total permit area becomes 689.27 acres t once this amendment is <br /> approved. Please refer to Map Exhibit D-1 for the location of <br /> the changes to the permit area and the revised Mining Timetable <br /> for area changes associated with this amendment. <br /> AMENDMENT 8 - Acreage removed. <br /> This change amounts to removing Stage V from the Permit <br /> area. Stage V contained 38.68 acres t, which when subtracted <br /> from the 128.23 acres t, brings the total permit area change to <br /> 89 .55 acres t as noted above. We traded part of this stage to <br /> the BLM this year and have found that we will not need this area <br /> in the future. Stage V has not been affected. We have changed <br /> our plans from the 1981 amendment and will process the material <br /> north of the river either at the south area plant site or on a <br /> parcel north of Stage 3 - Part A that is zoned for that use. <br /> This new area is not added to the permit as we plan to create a <br /> single processing and sales yard where gravel from this and other <br /> mines we have permitted, will be processed. For this reason and <br /> according to Rule 1.1(27) "Mining operations" . This term <br /> does not include: . . . cleaning, preparation and transportation <br /> and other off-site operations not conducted on the Affected <br /> Lands" . we do not have to include this industrial area in our <br /> permit. <br /> AMENDMENT 9 - Stage numbering change <br /> The terrace Stages A thru B and river level Stages W thru 2 <br /> will remain unchanged. Rather than totally change the lake area <br /> numbering sequence we choose to create one new stage, Stage 5 and <br /> modify the remaining stages by breaking them into parts to <br /> explain how the mine will be developed once mining ends in Stage <br /> 2 - Part A. This numbering change will have no affect on the <br /> overall mining plan or methods used as mining progresses. one <br /> minor change will be to increase the amount of mining face length <br /> 6 <br />
