TURNPIKE MINING RESOURCE <br />ANNUAL REPORT <br />DMG PERMIT NO. M-2004-009-AM-l <br />REPORT YEAR: <br />AUG. 4 2006 THRU AUG. 4 2007 <br />This DMG Regular 112 Permit (No. M-2004-009-AM-1) was approved by the Division <br />for operations on August 4, 2004 and the later amendment to this permit was approved on <br />June 21, 2006, expanding the area to be mined by approximately 75 acres. The total <br />permit area is 275 acres while the area permitted to be mined is 159 acres. Mining and <br />production of sand and gravel began on the site in September 2004. <br />During the report yeaz, mining occurred on both the north and south halves of the permit <br />azea, with reclamation (backfilling) occurring on the north half. Approximately 12.0 <br />acres were mined. Approximately 6.0 acres were backfilled, constituting reclamation for <br />the yeaz. All backfilling was done on azeas that were mined previous to the current <br />reporting year. <br />We also started washing aggregate this reporting period and so have constructed wash <br />ponds (settling ponds) to the northeast of the plant site. These ponds were constructed of <br />backfill material on a previously mined area. <br />During the next reporting yeaz, approximately 20 acres will be mined to the south of the <br />current mined azea in the south half of the permit area. Reclamation will consist of <br />backfill on the east side of the north half of the permit area in the remainder of Cell 1 and <br />in the area of Ce114. <br />A map is attached to this report showing the azeas and acreages described above. <br />
