r CLIMATE INFORMATION <br /> Exhibit K <br /> Climate Information <br /> The climate of this site is considered inland continental mountainous. Although it is not in <br /> the high mountains it is nevertheless a mountainous location. The location on the south side of <br /> Pikes Peak places it on the principle orographic precipitation side of that mountain mass. Thus it <br /> receives reliable precipitation. Because the site is well elevated above the Arkansas River Valley <br /> (about 2800 feet) it is within the upper reaches of the orographic upslope flow from the south. The <br /> site is essentially a mountain top and although about 6000 feet lower than Pikes Peak, is exposed <br /> and therefore subject to strong wind influences. <br /> There are no climatic records from this site other than the impressions provided by people <br /> who have experience in this area. Therefore data regarding precipitation, temperature, wind, and <br /> other climatic parameters are completely lacking. Three sites can provide a picture of the climatic <br /> patterns for the site, but are little help in estimating actual values for climatic parameters. <br /> Following is a presentation of the key data from these three sites. They are Colorado Springs, <br /> Pueblo, and Carton City. Colorado Springs probably provides the closest picture of the climatic <br /> conditions on this site, but even that is little more than a rough approximation. That location is on <br /> the east side of Pikes Peak and at slightly lower elevation. Therefore climatic parameters there are <br /> probably different from this site, but the overall patterns are probably similar. Pueblo, located <br /> many miles southeast of this site, deviates even more with respect to conditions, but can provide <br /> additional clues to patterns. Cation City, located southwest of the site, is somewhat more <br /> representative than Pueblo, but still deviates considerably. From the data presented below this <br /> exhibit will conclude with a projection of what the climate on this site is probably like. <br /> Temperature <br /> Figures 1 and 2 presented below show the temperature patterns on a combined average <br /> monthly basis for each of the three record sites, Colorado Springs, Pueblo, and Carton City. Figure <br /> 1 presents the Mean Daily Maximum Temperature for each of the sites for each month. Figure 2 <br /> presents the Mean Daily Minimum Temperature. Colorado Springs and Pueblo follow very similar <br /> patterns in summer, although Pueblo is significantly warmer. In winter, Pueblo tends to be colder <br /> at night than Colorado Springs, but warmer during the day. This undoubtedly is due to cold air <br /> drainage down the Arkansas River Valley. <br /> Cation City exhibits a rather different pattern. In summer, it is quite similar to Pueblo with <br /> respect to minima, but cooler than Pueblo during the day. In winter, it is significantly warmer <br /> during both day and night than Pueblo or Colorado Springs. This is probably due to its close <br /> proximity to the mountain front and downslope wind flow. Pueblo and Colorado Springs are both <br /> more exposed to colder air from the east. <br /> Table Mountain Quarry - Castle Concrete Company Exhibit K Page K-1 <br />
