azea is about 52 degrees (Fahrenheit), with the highest recorded temperature in Paonia of ]00 <br />degrees during 1927 and 1934. <br />Soils Information - <br />Detailed information regarding the soils within the permit area is located in Section 2.04.9 of the <br />Bowie No. 2 Mine permit application document. The following summary is derived from Section <br />2.04.9 of the referenced permit document. <br />The main azeas that aze disturbed by operations at the Bowie No. 2 Mine exhibit the following <br />soils: the Absazokee (Beenon-Absazokee Association), the Persayo, and the Torriorthents. The <br />Absazokee soil at the site exhibits a silty loam and silty clay loam texture. The soil exhibits an'A' <br />horizon depth of about 1.5 to 2.5 inches, with a combined 'N and 'B' horizon depth of about 22 to <br />38 inches. The soil is typically underlain by sandstone. <br />The Persayo soil is a silty clay loam. The Persayo soils located at the Bowie No. 2 site exhibit an <br />'A' horizon of about 1.5 inches deep, with a combined 'A' and 'B' horizon depth of about 18 to 20 <br />inches. The soil is typically underlain by the Mancos Shale. <br />The Torriorthents soil tends to be associated with rock outcrop areas, and the observed texture is <br />silty loam. The site soils exhibit'A' horizon depths of about 1.5 inches. The typical combined'A' <br />and'B' horizon depths range from about 6 to 7 inches. <br />The operations approved in Permit Revision No. 3 disturbed an additional 11.0 acres, one azea <br />located south of Old Highway 133 and the other area located just east of the present mine <br />entrance. Both azeas appeaz to be previously disturbed. The soils present in these disturbed areas <br />aze similaz to the "Meadow" soil found in other areas of the mine site, as depicted on Map No. 4, <br />"Soils". <br />The soil that was disturbed in the construction of the Freeman Gulch vent shaft, through <br />Technical Revision No. 12, is classified as a Fughes Loam. <br />The operations approved in Permit Revision No. 6 disturbed soils that are primarily Progresso <br />Loam and Potts Loam. Bowie Resources Limited requested a variance from topsoil salvaging <br />beneath the cover fill stockpile at the train loadout azea. Pursuant to Rule 4.06.2(a), the Division <br />can approve a variance for good cause shown. In this case, BRL planned on salvaging the top <br />two to three inches of topsoil and then placing geotextile fabric on the coverfill azea. Removal <br />of the entire topsoil horizon would have resulted in needless damage to the soil chazacteristics. <br />BRL committed to taking measures to protect the topsoil resource. However, all of the cut <br />material was used in the fill so no excess coverfill material resulted from the construction of the <br />train loadout. Therefore, no variance from topsoil salvaging was needed. <br />Vegetation Information - <br />Detailed vegetation information for the Bowie No. 2 permit azea is presented in Section 2.04.10 <br />of the permit application document The following summary is derived from the information <br />presented in Section 2.04.10 of the permit document. <br />15 <br />
