A three foot difference in the depth to groundwater from the seasonal <br />groundwater levels in two or more piezometers as observed in the previous years <br />monthly measurements for two consecutive months. <br />Broken Arrow Investments, LLC proposes that-the groundwater elevations be monitored <br />through both onsite and offsite wells before, during, and after the mining and <br />reclamation is complete so that impacts to the groundwater table, from this mining <br />operation, can be identified and addressed. It is the intent of Broken Arrow Investments, <br />LLC to operate responsibly and to mitigate damages to wells that are directly <br />attributable to the mining and reclamation of this site. For more specific information <br />please refer to the well owner agreements and narrative included in Exhibit G. <br />Reclamation - Approximate Time Table <br />The maximum proposed rate of production for the mine is 250,000 tons per year. The <br />total time frame to mine every phase is approximately 15 to 18 years which allows for <br />years where the 250,000 tons per year production rate is less. The following table <br />shows the approximate time frame to finish each phase of mining: <br />Mine Phase and Acreage Time Frame to Complete and <br />Reclaim Phase <br />Phase 1 A -12.48 acres 1 year and 3 months <br />Phase 1 B - 9.22 acres 11 months <br />Phase 1 C - 6.29 acres 7 months <br />Phase 2 - 5.15 acres 2 years and 3 months <br />Phase 3 - 4.84 acres 2 years and 2 months <br />Phase 4 - 5.04 acres 2 years and 3 months <br />Phase 5 - 4.87 acres 2 years and 2 months <br />Phase 6 - 5.96 acres 2 years and 7 months <br />Phase 7 - 6.00 acres 2 years and 9 months <br />The assumed maximum production rate is 250,000 tons for processed material leaving <br />the mine each year. An average production rate of 150,000 tons per year was used to <br />calculate the reclamation time table. The size and area of reclamation varies for each <br />phase but generally consists of the outside mining slope being reclaimed at a 3H:1 V <br />slope with the addition of overburden, topsoil, and revegetation. For more information <br />on sequencing and size of the reclamation activities refer to Exhibit L financial warranty <br />calculations. <br />Reclamation Plan and Alternate Reclamation Plan <br />The reclamation plan attached in Exhibit F depicts the reclaimed reservoir with an <br />existing oil/gas well in the center of the reservoir with setbacks recommended per the <br />attached slope stability study that will be implemented if an agreement with the oil/gas <br />companies cannot be reached to re-locate the existing well. An alternate reclamation <br />plan has also been included depicting the reservoir without the existing oil/gas well <br />Deff DRMS ?12 PProject <br />ermit <br />J&T Consulting, Inc.
