~~ i ~ <br />EXHIBIT C MINING PLAN <br />PECK PIT <br />This is an application for extraction of gravel and <br />stockpiling only. <br />Mining will begin upon obtaining the Mined Land <br />Reclamation Permit and continue for ten years. <br />Mining will take place during low water flows on <br />the Uncompahgre River. This usually occurs from <br />August 15th to May 15th but varies from year to <br />year depending on snowpack and summer thunderstorm <br />activity. A small stockpile will be maintained <br />so gravel can be obtained during the high water <br />season. See Exhibit E-1 Mining Plan Map for the <br />location of the stockpile. <br />Gravel thickness above the low water river elevation <br />on this bar is from 1 to 4 feet. Mining will take <br />place from the low water river elevation up and <br />only east of the river. <br />No topsoil exists on this site. Vegetation on the <br />permit area consists of a few small cottonwoods. <br />These trees will be left. There is no overburden <br />or waste rock associated with this operation. <br />Two existing access roads approximately 20 feet in <br />width will be maintained during this operation <br />and will be left when mining operations and reclamation <br />are completed. No buildings or other man made <br />structures are present on this site. A sewage lagoon <br />
