Again the water table is substantially below the floor <br />of the excavated pit. Ground water migrating from springs <br />uphill fran the site 1s not evident 1n the highwall. In <br />fact, investigation since my last submittal shows that the <br />perforated pipe is no longer being used. there are no <br />diversions of ground water or of Surface runoff (fran rain <br />or snow.) Therefor, we are introducing no change in the <br />hydrologic balance. <br />2. The drainage ditch referred to is the same as the inter- <br />mittant stream. This lntennittant stream is the natural <br />drainage produced by the annual runoff of snow. It does <br />not carry water any other time except during a heavy rain. <br />3. As we no longer have the pipe installed, we are in no <br />way discharging into a water course. <br />4. Operations come within fifteen feet Horizontally of the <br />intertnitterrt stream/drainage. A berm is being left adjacent <br />to the slope leading down to the drainage. This 1s accomp- <br />lished by our excavation methods. No water drains directly <br />from the site into the drainage without first percolating <br />through soils. <br />C. Exhibit D - Wildlife Statement <br />1. A new W11 dl ife Statement <br />area DOW officer. Jim Haskins. <br />attached. <br />has been requested from the <br />This new statement has been <br />D. Exhibit E - Reclamation <br />1. A copy of the letter from the landowner (Jim Funk is the <br />husband of Avis Funk, and operator of the ranch with her,) <br />advising of his desires to have only Alfalfa and Brome seed <br />used in revegetation. <br />2. Weed control will be accomplished by the County Week <br />Control Crew. Herbicides approved and registered with the <br />EPA for the specific weed/s involved will be used. No <br />mixtures containing Tordon will be used per lease agreement. <br />3. All topsoil stockpiled for more than one growing season <br />has. or will have as needed, a grass cover crop to prevent <br />erosion. <br />
