<br />EXHIBIT K <br />CLIMATE <br /> <br />The gravel pit is located on the eastern side of the San Luis Valley. The climate is <br />marked by cold winters and moderate summers, light precipitation, and much <br />sunshine. About 80°fo of the annual precipitation occurs from April 1o October, <br />most of it in the form of scattered light showers and thunderstorms that develop <br />over the mountains and move into the valley during the afternoon. Winter snows <br />occur mainly in frequent light falls as early as September or as late as May. A <br />good snow cover will remain on the ground for several weeks during the coldest <br />months. <br />There are no significant factors which would affect or be affected by the mining <br />operation. <br />
