DEFICIENCY NOTICE CMLRB I I2 Permit Application Agile Stone Systems, Inc. • concluded that if the State Engineer's office enforces these water rights, they will probably lower the water table and/or water reaching the Steer's spring. Since the Steer's spring appears to be derived from an outwash aquifer, there is no geological structure for any blasting to disrupt. These test results and conclusions are thoroughly discussed in Exhibit G. 25. During the August 15, 1997 pre-operation inspection, Bill Fehr and Mitch Albert of Agile Stone Systems stated that a berm to screen the mining operation at gravel extraction area B would be constructed southwest of that area. This berm must be discussed in the mining plan. All dimensions of the berm must be provided. Describe where construction materials will come from. Show the berm on the Mining Plan Map and discuss reclamation of this disturbance in the appropriate exhibit. The berm southwest of gravel extraction area B is shown on the Mining Plan Map. The dimensions are shown on the maps in Exhibit C and in tables in Exhibit D. Discussions are contained in Exhibit D, E and L. Construction material will come from gravel and granite plant material. Once a berm begins reaching its design dimensions, especially south facing, it will be covered with topsoil from the temporary topsoil pile. This screening berm is a permanent structure which will not be reclaimed as it will eventually be • completely revegetated during these initial and subsequent near term operations. 26. At the pre-operation inspection, the Division learned that the location of sections of the permit azea rail line would be moved and other sections would be eliminated. Make appropriate changes to the Mining Plan Map. Any discussed railroad track locations have been made and appropriately marked on the appropriate maps. 27. It was also learned during the pre-operation inspection that the plant azea for gravel will be lowered 4-5 feet or more. Discuss this new land configuration in the mining plan; describe what will be done with the excavated material; show both on the Mining Plan Map and provide any necessary changes to the reclamation plan and map. The plant area on the gravel bar will be lowered an average of about 8'. See Mining Plau Map in Exhibit C. The material from the plant area will be topsoil or plant feedstock. The topsoil will be placed on the temporary topsoil pile. The gravel will be placed on gravel area IB after its topsoil has . been removed.
