The operation will consist of stripping and <br />stockpiling topsoil; removing the gravel; leveling the mined areas <br />and revegetating in accordance with the enclosed reclamation plan. <br />Equipment to be used on the site will consist of the following: <br />1. Screening plant: <br />HD - portable <br />2. Front End Loader: <br />Kohlman Model 101 <br />Caterpiller Madel 950 <br />3. Trucks: Tandem axle dump trucks and semi truck/trailer dumps. <br />The proposed plan is to begin mining at the northeast portion of <br />the property and move in a west by southwest direction, Topsoil and <br />overburden will be stockpiled on the south edge of the area being <br />mined t~~ facilitate reclamation. <br />It is estimated that approximately five acres will be initially <br />disturb=_d to provide adequate working and stockpiling area. Approxi- <br />mately :Five acres will be disturbed during the first year of operation. <br />Ac~:ess to the proposed area will generally be provided by exist- <br />ing roads. The access roads will be properly maintained by Pioneer <br />Sand Company, Inc. during the life of the operation. The haul dis- <br />tance from the mining site to Interstate 25 is approximately 3/4 to <br />1~ miler. <br />To alleviate any dust problems on the access road, truck speeds <br />will be kept under twenty miles per hour and the road surface will <br />be gravE:led. These control measures have been discussed with the <br />Air Pol:'_ution Control Division of the State and they have indicated <br />their initial approval. <br />It is the intention of Pioneer Sand Company, Inc. to leave a <br />wall on the north side of the pit area to hide the pit from traffic <br />visibility along I-25. <br />ThE~ mining equipment to be used will not require any public <br />service:: such as water, electricity, or gas. <br />EXHIBIT E - RECLAMATION PLAN <br />As indicated in the Niining Plan (Exhibit D), the area will be <br />worked northeast to southwest. Approximately four to six inches of <br />topsoil will be removed and stockpiled for future reclamation use. <br />
