Changes to drainage basins caused by operations on site: <br />There will be no significant and permanent changes in watershed boundaries caused by <br />operations on site. As discussed in the reclamation plan, final (post-reclamation) contours will <br />maintain existing watershed boundaries. Once ponds are full to capacity, discharge will equal <br />intake from surface runoff, with evaporation losses made up by Home Ditch flows. <br />Other than disturbances in vegetation, area exposed to erosion, and evaporation, the only <br />significant change in drainage basin characteristics is the temporary blocking of potential <br />surface flows from pit and working areas during the life of the pit. There will be minor and <br />temporary changes to Dolores River drainage, but the impact will be minimal, as less than 0.1% <br />of the total basin of the drainage will be blocked from discharging at any one time during mining <br />and reclamation operations. <br />5. Aquifers and watersheds in this area: <br />The onty recognized aqurfer in the area is the alluvial aqurfer associated with the Dolores River. <br />Based on depths of existing wells in the area, there are no bedrock formations used as aquifers <br />in the area which will be mined which would be affected by the mining of the sand and gravel. <br />The overburden and the sand and gravel may be considered part of the alluvial aquifer <br />associated with the Dolores River and are considered signficant aquifers in this areas, and will <br />be protected by the method of mining and actions as discussed below and in the surface water <br />management plan. Based on the location and depth of other known wells in the area, the <br />mining activities proposed will be unlikely to have any impact on these wells. There will be no <br />blasting at this site. <br />6. Prevention and mitigation actions: <br />As discussed above, the pertnR area is more than 200 feet away from the Dolores River main <br />channel, and while it does come within 200 feet of a wetland which may be either a branch <br />channel or former channel, no disturbance of that area will take place. Storm water pollution <br />prevention and management actions, including erosion and sedimentation control, will be <br />implemented as required by the Colorado Discharge Permit System storm water general permit <br />for which coverage has been obtained for this site.
