_, ~ r <br />EXHIBIT "A" <br />LEGAL DESCRIPTION BERRY BROTHERS TRACT <br />A portion of Tract 70 in Township 1 North, Range <br />94 West of the 6th P.M., located in the S'~ of the SE< of the <br />NW4 of said Section 24. <br />EXHIBIT "B" <br />MINING PLAN <br />The mining plan in this ravine is simply to continue <br />excavating roadbase from the present outcrop which consists <br />of Pleistocene glacial outwash in a northeasterly direction. <br />EXHIBIT "C" <br />MAP <br />See map and topographic sheet attached. <br />EXHIBIT "D" <br />WILDLIFE, WATER RESOURCES, VEGETATION <br />AND SOILS INFORMATION <br />Water Resources: This outcrop is of a glacial <br />terrace which is not irrigated. The exposure is to the <br />South. In the wettest of years there is no moisture in this <br />gully and in 1977 the area is totally lacking in moisture. <br />The only significant moisture in wet years is in the form of <br />snow which at times is sufficient for a limited cover of <br />rabbit brush and greasewood, and which is capable of causing <br />live water as far as the Meeker ditch for a few hours out of <br />a year. <br />Wildlife: There are Mule deer in the area. The <br />deer on occasion utilize the sagebrush, but their primary <br />habitat is approximately one and a half miles to the North. <br />Notwithstanding the existance of mule deer, their principal <br />habitat is the north and to the east of this dry gully. Small <br />game and rodents are present in the area, but limited because <br />of dry exposure and lack of water or feed. <br />Soils Information: The gravel deposit, which is a <br />glacial outwash, is overlain by a shallow loessal type soil <br />of approximately two feet in thickness. This, in turn, is <br />overlain by a light brown sandy loam of not more than six <br />inches. <br />Vegatation Information: The vegetation is almost <br />exclusively rabbit brush, greasewood, with some sagebrush. <br />EXHIBIT "E" <br />RECLAMATION PLAN <br />The reclamation plan is to bulldoze surface <br />materials including loessal soils to a forty percent slope <br />throughout the pit and seed to crested wheat grass as deter- <br />mined by the Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation <br />service. <br />
