<br />EXHIBIT D (Cont'd) <br />' .dining Plan <br />Mining was started in the eastern portion of the area, <br />' approximately midway between the north and south boundaries of <br />the lease. An early haul road conveyed the clay from the property <br />in a southerly direction. This haul road was abandoned, and the <br />existing road (see map Exhibits B and C) was installed at the <br />1 request of the lessor. hiap Exhibit C shows the boundary of the <br />' lease, the affected lands and the current operating area, as <br />well as other items required by the rules and regulations. <br />1+lining will occ:ur in eight stages so as to minimize surface <br />disturbance at any one time (see map Exhibit D-1). Stages 0 and <br />A, as well as Stage I and A, will be operated simultaneously <br />beginning with Stages 0 and A at the issuance of this permit. <br />This is necessary because there are two different types of clay <br />' available in the areas, t'lhen the clay in Stage A is depleted, <br />operations in this pit will return to the single-stage-at-a-time <br />' type operation. Stage A should be depleted within the first ten <br />' years. It is estimated the remaining seven stages will each <br /> last betwe en four and six years. <br /> Three tracts on the lease are not expected to contain <br /> commercial quantities of clay. These tracts have not been elimi- <br /> nated from the disturbed lands because there is so me possibility <br /> that when nearby lands are mined, the clay will be found to extend <br /> laterally into any or all of these tra cts. Should this occur, <br />' these trac ts will be treated simply as an addition al stage or <br /> <br /> - 10 - <br />'' <br />
