APPROXIMATE ACREAGE TO BE RECLAIMED IN NEXT REPORT YEAR: <br />57.0 <br />Mining during the report year continued on this permit site in the southern location of <br />Area 1, where it was completed for mining in the eazly part of 2006. Please refer to the <br />attached Annual Report Map. Mining also commenced into Area 5 where it was <br />completed up until the scalehouse and shop. No seeding or revegetation was <br />implemented on this permit site, as the overburden stockpile is in vazious stages of <br />disturbance with the addition and subtraction of material. <br />Mining during the next reporting year may continue in Area 5 to the east to the approved <br />limits of mining, or the shop building may be left as part of the final reclamation of the <br />site to water-storage. Reclamation during the next reporting yeaz should be implemented <br />as complete reclamation to a water storage facility. <br />Per the requirements of this permit, attached are groundwater-monitoring results for the 3 <br />monitoring wells located on the permit azea that we aze still monitoring. Because no new <br />areas have been opened up with dewatering trenches, all monitoring wells (located <br />outside of the permitted mineable azea) have shown that water levels have stabilized and <br />no fluctuations aze occurring. Upon final reclamation of the site, all nearby water levels <br />will return to normal. <br />
