This pit HAS NOT <br />been granted a Temporary Cessation and it HAS operated more than 180 <br />days this year. There has been no mining within 200 feet of the Peck <br />Creek tributary canyon as required. The Annual Report map is an <br />excerpt from the application map showing the Southeast portion of the <br />mine where mining activities are taking place at this time. <br />We will deal specifically with each of the Annual Report <br />questions as required in Rule 1.15 of the Rules and Regulations and <br />the Annual Notice Letter. <br />(1) The new mining areas this year are cross hatched. The slab <br />stone mining area increased by 4.70 ac. ± this year. Mining <br />continued on the 4 field stone areas (pink) and the slab stone <br />areas disturbed in past years (blue). Smaller slab rock mate- <br />rial continues to stockpiled in processing and sorting areas <br />east of the clay mine. The stone yards cover an additional <br />9.44 ac. ±. We continue to use the grizzlies setup in 2002 <br />for processing stone. The following table shows the status of <br />the area, in acres, disturbed at the mine: <br />DISTURBANCE STAGE 1 <br />ac. t STAGE 2 <br />ac. t TOTALS <br />ac. ± <br />Slab stone mining (blue) 6.47 1.57 8.04 <br />Active field stone mining (pink) 0.78 0.27 1.05 <br />Topsoil stockpiles (tan) 1.47 0 1.47 <br />Partially reclaimed (green) 6.80 0 6.80 <br />Stone Storage (purple) 26.34 1.52 27.86 <br />Total disturbance 41.86 3.36 45.22 <br />(2) No reclamation was required but as in the past we continue to <br />cleanup the pre-law disturbed area by filling, graded, and <br />shaped the areas around the perimeter of the area. In addi- <br />tion, a portion of the pre-law disturbed area has been leveled <br />for use as a clay storage area (1.52 ac.±, magenta).
