<br />-~. <br />q i __ , <br />CASTLE CONCRETE C'OMPANY' S ~ c,,_ ~ <br />1982 ANNUAL REPORT <br />„i'.., " .. '.. .... <br />CASTLE SAND PIT ~ ,,. ~.~ ...., ~ -.~~ <br />„ao . <br />77-213 <br />C ? r' ; <br />INPl~DUCPION: In general, the operation progressed in much the <br />same way it did in previous years, The most significant changes were <br />with topsoil movement and approval of a technical revision. <br />RULE 2.41(1): The permit issued September 27, 1978, was for not <br />more than 32 acres of affected land. During the 1981/1982 permit year, <br />the pit expanded about 2 rture acres. The direction of expansion was <br />westerly. The working face now exists at a point slightly west of the <br />center of Tract C. This rate of expansion is nearly as expected, perhaps <br />slightly faster. <br />RULE 2.41(2): No acreage was reclaimed during this year. None was <br />expected to be reclaimed because of a need for rrost of the operation to <br />be involved in some aspect of extraction. <br />RULE 2.41(3): The only change that has occurred is the irovement of <br />some of the topsoil which has been stored for several years on the <br />western edge of the operation. The ^ovement has been to the eastern <br />side of the pit bottom where it will be distributed on finished slopes. <br />The soil is better protected here and is out of the way of extraction <br />operations in Tract C. <br />RULE 2.41(4): No seeding has occurred in the past year. <br />PULE 2.41(5): Because no seeding was done, no fertilizers were <br />needed. <br />
