MITIGATION RECREATIOiv: The Sale Barn Canyon:piking/bike trail will be compromised near the north end of PHASE ONE A. Working together with Trails 2000, it is proposed that the trail be relocated across to the north rim of $ale Bam Canyon to avoid all of PHASE ONE and proposed PHASE TWO. WILDLIFE: There is currently no water source on the Grandview ridge mesa. Under the direction of BLM, C 8 J Gravel wilt build or use existing ponds and supply water via water truck to the ponds during the dry season or as needed. WEED CONTROL: All growth medium and overburden stockpiles will be seeded with approved BLM seed mix to help control dust. These same stockpiles will also be subject to C & J gravel's weed control plan. Having been advised by Rod Cook, La Plata County Weed Control manager, Custom Weed Spraying has been contracted to control all disturbed areas in and around the mining operation on a biannual basis. If problem areas persist, Custom Weed Spraying is used as needed to optimize weed control. C&J's goal is to eradicate all noxious weeds from the mine. FUGITIVE DUST CONTROL PLAN: All necessary control measures will be used as outlined on page 5 of Construction Permit #99LP0697F as issued by Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, Air Pollution Control Division. NOISE CON ~ nOL: Noise control is regulated by the Mine Safety and Health Administration on an miner's level only. All test results are kept on file and will be made available to BLM as needed. HAZARDOUS MATERIAL: Any hazardous materials such as fuel and oils are located within safety containment berms as outlined by Division of Minerals and Geology and MSHA. All hazardous materials will be stored offsite of BLM permit areas. Any accidental spills of hazardous material onto BLM land will be reported within one working day and clean up will be under the direction of the BLM. OPERATIONS SAFETY PLAN: C~J Gravel operates under the direction of and in complete accordance of the Mine Safety and Health Administration. Specific regulations are MSHA 30 CFR, Part 48, Subpart B-E and Part 56. STORM WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN: This plan is on file with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, Water Quality Control Division and is reviewed and updated annually. Any maintenance or corrective action is done as needed and reported annually. A small portion of a sediment pond is located on the BLM permit. This pond is a result of gravel mining and was encouraged by the Division of Minerals and Geology to be incorporated into the storm water management plan. The only part of the pond that will hold watt, ;~ on private land, as shown in the southwest corner of the Montoya property. This part of the pond will be maintained as needed for erosion control and sediment removal.
