<br />Mining - Reclamation - A.P coot <br /> <br />S1T~ S <br />Arkins Park South - Five Stones - This area has be n opened and <br />is being quarried to replace the Trupp quarries whic are in the <br />process of reclamation. <br />Mining Plan: An access road was constructed from t e valley to <br />the west. We plan to remove stone first from the orth side of <br />the draw. It will be removed from the south tows d the north- <br />west. The processing is being done on a work dec to the east <br />and in the valley to the west where the access ro d enters the <br />draw. A process area, loading area and storage ar a is located <br />there. We plan in the future to remove stone from t e south side <br />of the draw which would be an extension of an ex sting quarry <br />that was operated by Colo. Stone Co. 10 - 30 ye rs ago. We <br />expect to gain access from the west side of the mou tain similar <br />to the access to the north part of this area. Th old access <br />road from the east is so steep and rough that the large trucks <br />cannot get up the hill and it is very dangerous t try to get <br />them up the hill and around the sharp curve. <br />Reclamation Plan: When depleted these areas will be reclaimed <br />according to the specifications of the other guar ies in this <br />area following the contour of the mountain as close as is <br />feasible. We expect these areas to be producing for a long <br />length of time. <br />S1T~ ~ Arkins Park South - The west part of this qua ry has been <br />depleted and we plan to reclaim about 1 acre on th top in the <br />near future at the same time as the reclamation wi 1 be done on <br />the Trupp quarries. We have already re-seeded the outh side of <br />the draw that is to the north of the quarry area and it is doing <br />very well. We plan to continue quarrying on the orth side of <br />the draw in the lower parts as the demand for that c for and type <br />of stone is needed. <br />Enclosed are amended maps as required for each area <br />
