<br />EXHIBIT G <br />water information <br />SURFACE WATER -The permit area is not prone to flooding from adjoining properties. <br />The largest drainage course in the vicinity is Woody Creek, located adjacent to the <br />northerly permit boundary. Gravel extraction activities are separated from Woody Creek <br />by an undisturbed ridge approximately 80 feet above the flow-line of the creek. The <br />Roaring Fork River flows northerly approximately 1000 feet west of the permit boundary. <br />Mining is conducted in a manner that will not increase the amount of surface storm water <br />runoff above historic flows. Any stone water runoff entering the site will be captured within <br />the pit area and allowed to evaporate or percolate into the ground. The existing pit is <br />covered by an NPDES permit number COG-500549 for discharges associated with storm <br />water. <br />CONSUMPTIVE USES -Water is used on site when necessary to control dust in the <br />mining area, during crushing operations, and on haul roads. Additionally, water is needed <br />for concrete production. Estimated rates follow: <br />USE GALLON PER <br />DAY DAYS PER <br />YEAR ACRE FEET <br />PER YEAR <br />Dust Control 25,000 120 9.3 <br />Concrete Plant 25,000 120 9.3 <br />TOTAL 50,000 18.6 <br />The water supply for these uses is from an existing well located within the permit boundary. <br />Water is pumped from the well to an existing storage pond located between the asphalt <br />and concrete plants. In 1981, a water right was obtained from the District Water Court. <br />A copy of the decree and the Well Registration are on the following pages. <br />G-1 <br />
