Water - General Requirement <br />To minimize the effect on the prevailing hydrologic balance, GP Ranches, LLC. will: <br />a. Comply with all applicable Colorado water laws. <br />b. Comply with all applicable Federal and State water quality laws and regulations. <br />c. Comply with all Federal and State requirements for dredge and fill. <br />d. Re-grade and backfill all sediment and siltation structures after mining is completed. <br />e. Monitor groundwater levels adjacent to the site and mitigate any damage to adjacent <br />wells that dewatering activities may have. (See Exhibit G) <br />Groundwater - Specific Requirements <br />The operation will not affect groundwater quality on or off the site. The operation will comply <br />with State groundwater quality standards. Due to the absence of sources of potential pollutants, <br />groundwater quality monitoring is not required in this operation. <br />The mining and reclamation may affect the groundwater table surrounding the mine site. The <br />proposed mitigation efforts to minimize these impacts are recharge ponds or ditches in <br />necessary areas to maintain groundwater levels during the mining, and a perimeter drain if <br />needed to convey groundwater around the lined reservoir after the pit side liner is installed. GP <br />Ranches, LLC proposes that they monitor groundwater levels through both onsite and offsite <br />monitoring wells that they have installed, or have access to before, during, and after the mining <br />and 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 GP Ranches, LLC to operate <br />responsibly and to mitigate any damage to wells that is directly attributable to the mining and <br />reclamation of this site. <br />GP <br />I JET Consulting, Inc.
