e. Time periods of each phase shown on Exhibits D <br /> and E. Gravel thickness varies - see Mining <br /> Plan Map, Exhibit C. Overburden is described in <br /> Exhibit AA. Claystone bedrocks stratum under- <br /> lies mineable sand/gravel material. <br /> f. Mining operation will include use of rock crushers, <br /> asphalt and concrete mixing plants and scales <br /> with scale house. <br /> EXHIBIT E - Reclamation Plan <br /> a. The operator proposes to reclaim the area through <br /> development of water impoundments with seeded <br /> dikes and picnic area for recreational purposes. <br /> The reclamation will consist of impoundment ponds <br /> generally within the natural ground water levels <br /> of the immediate area. Because the bottom of the <br /> excavations are well below normal ground water, <br /> the future use is development of ponds to be used <br /> for fishing at such time as stocking is accom- <br /> plished. Provision will be made in reclamation <br /> for access to all locations along roadways on the <br /> dikes as required. All finished slopes from five <br /> • feet above to ten feet below the expected water <br /> line will have a slope no steeper than 3 <br /> horizontal to 1 vertical, and will be compacted <br /> using standard heavy duty earthmoving equipment. <br /> The majority of the area will be reclaimed for <br /> recreational purposes. Phases I and III approxi- <br /> mately twenty acres, will be reclaimed for <br /> commercial and/or housing development by using <br /> overburden from the remaining one hundred acres <br /> to fill the excavated area to the required <br /> elevations. <br /> b. The ponded areas can be reclaimed and used in <br /> much the same way as the Barbour Ponds along <br /> the west side of Interstate 25 . The reclaimed <br /> area used as a recreational area will fit well <br /> into the agricultural zoning of the local land <br /> use plan according to local zoning regulations. <br /> C. The affected lands will be reclaimed for recrea- <br /> tional purposes within five years after each phase <br /> of reclamation has commenced except the south <br /> twenty acres for purpose stated previously. Use <br /> of the reclaimed land shall be in accordance with <br /> the limited liability landowner liability law <br /> contained in Article 41 of Title 33, C.R.S. <br /> 1973. <br />
