SECTION 8 Roads - Rule 4.03 A, Haul Roads 1. One haul road was constructed at the Energy Mine No. 3. The road is shown on Map 6a, Mine Plan, with design specifications shown on Map 14a, haul road profile and cross-sections are detailed in Exhibit 3, Volume 3 of the permit application. A discussion of the haul road is found in Section 2.05.3, Volume 1 of the permit application. Designs were in compliance with 2.05.3 and 4.03. 2. The portion of the haul road south of County Road 33 has been reclaimed. The portion of the haul road north of its junction with County Road 33, and south of its junction of County Road 179 has been deeded to Routt County, and has become Dart of the new County Road 179. The replaced portion of County Road 179 was partially reclaimed when the Mine No. 3 was completed, and part remains as a permanent light use road, The transfer of responsibility and location is described at Exhibit 25 of the Mine No. 3 permit document. Access Roads 1. There are no access roads left at the Energy Mine No. 3. The remaining roads within the permit area are considered light use roads. Light-Use Roads The preexisting roads into and around the Lieske residence (which is owned by Cyprus) will remain as permanent light use roads. These roads are shown on Map 16a. These existed prior to mine development and are used primarily for residence access, a non-mining related activity. Mine personnel use the roads on an infrequent basis for mine reclamation monitoring and are therefore approved as permanent light use roads. The provisions of Rule 4.03.3 have been met. The light use road into and past sediment pond Mine 3 South, shown on Map 16a, is also a permanent light use road, The road is used for reclamation and pond monitoring activities. The road is in compliance with Rule 4.03. _lp _
