<br />RECLAMATION PLAN <br />EXHIBIT E (cont) <br />be "Inert Material" as defined by the Colorado Department of <br />Health. The pit will be reclaimed so that a suitable grade for <br />drainage exists, all surface runoff will be directed so it <br />remains on the mine site. <br />All grading will be done in a manner to control erosion and <br />to protect areas outside the affected land from slides or other <br />damage. Backfilling and grading will-he completed as soon as <br />feasible after mining is completed in a given area. All refuse <br />will be hauled away or disposed of in a manner that will control <br />unsightliness and protect the drainage system from pollution. <br />There are no acid-forming or toxic materials involved in this <br />operation. The minimal amounts of petroleum products stored at <br />the site will be done as prescribed by applicable laws. The <br />storage tanks will be surrounded by a berm adequate to retain any <br />fluid should a tank rupture. In addition, there is adequate <br />absorbent materials on site to contain any spills that would <br />occur outside the berms. There are no drill or auger holes on <br />the land.. Maximum slopes will be within the limits set forth in <br />the Rules and Regulations of the Board and will be capable of <br />being traversed by machinery. <br />The operator does not expect prevailing hydrologic condi- <br />tions to be disturbed. We will comply with applicable Colorado <br />water laws and regulations (as the operator understands them) <br />governing injury to existing water rights in order to minimize <br />any disturbance, which might occur to the prevailing hydrologic <br />balance of the affected land and surrounding areas and to the <br />quality of water in surface and ground-water systems both during <br />and after the mining operation and during reclamation. In <br />addition, the operator expects to comply with applicable Federal <br />and Colorado water quality laws and regulations. Any water used <br />in the operation of the processing plants and gravel pit will <br />come from water owned by CAP Land Company or purchased from an <br />outside agency that is suitable for that use. EXHIBITG contains <br />specific information concerning impacts and uses of water at this <br />mining operation. <br />This is not a dredge facility, so there are no temporary <br />siltation structures involved in this operation and no mining <br />will be done within the confines of a river. If a U.S. Army Corp <br />of Engineers Permit is required for mining in waters of the U.S. <br />or wetlands on the site it will be obtained prior to disturbing <br />those areas. There will be no earthen dams on the mined area.
