• EXHIBIT G -WATER INFORMATION <br />G.1 Summary of West PiUFarm Water Management <br />Key elements of this revised water management plan for the BMRI San Luis Project <br />include: <br />• Continued pumping of West Pit well BF-SR with supplemental pumping <br />from BF-4 and BF-3 as needed to control the ground water level in the <br />West Pit and prevent ground water outflow to the Rito Seco alluvial <br />aquifer. <br />• Continued operation of the Rito Seco alluvial ground water capture wells <br />M-32 and M-33 to prevent further down gradient migration of affected <br />ground water. <br />• Eventual decommissioning of the water treatment plant. Subsequent to <br />decommissioning of the water treatment plant, water produced by the <br />West Pit ground water wells and the down gradient capture system will be <br />conveyed by a new pipeline to the BMRI Ranch where the water will be <br />used for crop irrigation on historically irrigated lands. <br />• Storage of water from the West Pit wells and ground water capture system <br />during the non-irrigation season (November through March), in an <br />engineered, off-stream irrigation pond located on BMRI Ranch property. <br />G.2 Preliminary Irrigation Pipeline and Pond Design <br />Implementation of this revised water management plan will require construction of an <br />irrigation water pipeline between the West Pit and the BMRI Ranch, construction of <br />an imgation water storage pond, and modification to the center pivot irrigation <br />system. The design and operation of these constructed facilities aze described in <br />detail in the following section and shown in the Design Drawings in Appendix D. <br />The level of detail presented in the Design Drawings and in the following sections is <br />intended to provide a basis for regulatory review. Upon completion of construction, a <br />report documenting the as-constructed facilities will be submitted to DMG. This <br />report will consist of record drawings, a summary of construction quality control and <br />• quality assurance testing, and photographs of construction progress. <br />Battle Mountain Resources, Inc.
