Loaded into a truck. It will then be hauled from the excavation area to <br />' the washing plant site where it will be dumped into a conveyor belt <br />' hopper for processing by washing and screening into a finished product <br />of masonry sand, and stockpiled in the washing plant area. As orders <br />are filled, the sand will be removed from the stockpile by a front end <br />' Loader and placed in bulk form in dump trucks, which will make <br />deliveries to different building sites throughout the Denver region. <br />' The process water for washing will be pumped from a pit well <br />' adjacent to the washing plant area, and returned for reuse after it has <br />' flowed through a settling pond. An alternate method to use of the drag- <br />line below water level will be the operation of a small capacity dredge <br />' to remove the sands and silt and pump the slurry by pipe Line directly <br />to the washing plant area for processing. There will be no dewatering <br />operation nor impoundment of water involved in the method of <br />' extraction. <br />' The silt material removed from the sand during the washing <br />process will be settled out in a pond, removed, and stockpiled in the <br />' washing plant area. It will then be used, along with any available <br />' stockpiled topsoil, as planting soil in the reclamation process. <br />Each of the eight tracts in the excavation area consists of from <br />' 6.6 to 9. 5 acres according to the depth of sand deposit under Lying it. <br />One tract at a time will be worked to extract material, beginning with <br />Tract #1 and moving upstream through Tract #S. When the extraction <br />' of sand from a particular tract is completed, an adjacent tract will be <br />' started and reclamation work will commence on the tract just excavated. <br />1 <br />
