1 <br /> stated in the intermediate case above will apply, resulting in an operation <br /> with a duration of approximately 15 to 16 years. The assumptions stated <br /> ' under the third case above (the shortest duration) are also considered <br /> t improbable. It is BEST-WAY PAVING COMPANY' s intention to use its aggregate <br /> resources which occur in Greeley and Weld County, in that area rather than <br /> ' shipping those materials in bulk by rail to high demand areas such as the <br /> Denver Metropolitan Area. As a result, it is not really possible to assign <br /> ' a duration to this third category of assumptions except to state that in <br /> ' this case, the maximum anticipated duration for this operation will be 15 <br /> years. In summary, It is most highly probable that the duration of the <br /> ' mining operation at the site will be 15 to 16 years. <br /> ' 3. Equipment and Personnel : At present the equipment in use by BEST-WAY <br /> PAVING COMPANY Includes three loaders, one scraper, seven tandem trucks , <br /> ' and seven tractor trucks which can be used to pull either belly-dump <br /> trailers, end-dump trailers, water tankers, or low-boys (equipment- <br /> carrying trailers) . It is anticipated that one tandem truck and one <br /> ' tractor unit will be added to the fleet for every five years of continued <br /> operation. In addition , it is expected that one additional scraper will be <br /> ' added to the mining operation, resulting in a total of two scrapers , ten <br /> tandem and ten tractor rigs working at the site (assuming the intermediate <br /> duration case discussed above) . <br /> ' The present mining and paving operation involves a staff of about 55 <br /> ' people working one shift per day, five to six days per week. This figure <br /> includes office and maintenance staff as well as the construction personnel . <br /> ' If the assumptions of intermediate duration case stated above are assumed <br /> ' -13- <br />
