The maps provided are in both black and white and color. <br />Map 1 -West of Academy Boulevard <br />Not much changed in this area in the last year. However, there were two changes to be <br />noted. <br />First, through a technical revision, a truck parking area was established near the <br />entrance. <br />Second, a small amount of mining was done on the remaining sand on the east side of <br />this area adjacent to Academy Boulevard, but well above the level of the highway. There is <br />considerably more mining to be done in this area before the top of the ridge to remain reaches <br />the designed 8' to 12' above the level of the highway. That will be done in coming years. <br />No additional reclamation was done in this area. <br />Map 2 -East of Academy Boulevard <br />The mining in Phase le South continued to expand slightly eastward and dramatically <br />southward. This was the primary mining area for mining during the last year. Demand for <br />product was so great in 1997 almost half of Phase 2e was mined out. This process of mining <br />produces a broad floor. Once Phase 3e is well along, it is possible that the processing plant <br />will be moved to this side of the highway. <br />No extraction occurred in Phase Se (north of the Fountain Mutual Ditch). <br />The aquifer recharge system continued to operate through the summer months. <br />Noticeable increases in the ground water level can be seen in nearby areas. It is not known, <br />however, whether that is due to the recharge or other factors. Certainly the recharge system is <br />contributing to that rise. <br />The tree planting continued to show good success. <br />A number of wells were established around the perimeter of the operation. These wells <br />are used to pump out groundwater and treat it before returning the water. This is part of a <br />process of cleaning the groundwater from solvents introduced into the groundwater at the <br />Schlage Lock manufacturing plant east of this site. The mitigation program is taking into <br />account the fact that land near or even adjacent to the wells will eventually be mined. <br />Daniels Sand Pit #2 Annual Report Due: January 7, 1998 Additional Sheets page 1 of 2 <br />
