Harlan <br />Foresvth et al., 94 I.D. at 486. On the other hand, the total <br />carbonates in the material in the -1 4" stockpile is not uncommon <br />given the 95~ total carbonate minimum standard set forth in <br />Foresvth 94 I.D. at 484-85, and the fact that it is composed of <br />the "fines and material containing dirt, wood or other debris <br />which was placed in stockpile at the quarry and used for road <br />surfacing, parking lots and similar uses."
