UPDATE 2000: The changes from 1999 were not very great. Slightly more land is included in the mining category due to some expansion on the extreme south end of the site. However, there was also some reduction in mining extent elsewhere. The amount of reclaimed land has been reduced because of the storm damages that occurred in 1999. That adjustment was not made last year. Very little else changed. Following is an inventory of the acreage of the various parcels of land shown on this map. (NOTE: Acreages were calculated using a different computer program than waz the caze in 1999 and therefore are slightly different from 1999 even though the on-the-ground area has not changed significantly.)

One of the advantages of this system is that it shows the entire permit area. For the pazt several years the most easterly portions of the permit, which have not changed much, were not shown.

This soil is being gathered through the combined efforts of the CMRF and Castle Concrete. Much of the reclamation done during the last year utilized some of this soil and although it is still too early to determine the compatibility of the soil with the site, initial assessments indicate a Castle Concrete 2001 Annual Report M-77-211 Pikeview Quarry Page 2 of 5
