5. Brighton Road (C.R. 3)1 and abutting residential, commercial and <br />agricultural properties (including a large Petrocco Farms parcel east of the <br />southern end of the proposed expansion); <br />6. The Spier property, an inholding property within the southernmost <br />proposed expansion property; <br />7. Platte River Farms ranch/pasture land and ski lake to the southwest <br />8. Existing Ready Mixed Aggregate's "Ready Mixed Pit No. 1 "(M-1985- <br />017) to the north of Platte River Farms (proposed to be incorporated into <br />the Bromley Lakes Pit permit by this Amendment No. 2); and <br />9. The South Platte River along the west side of the existing permitted area. <br />Figure C2 is based on a recent aerial photograph of the site that readily portrays <br />existing site conditions. Figure C3 is a detailed topographic base map included to provide <br />pre-mining topography of the area. The base map topography is in sufficient detail (two- <br />ft contour intervals) to portray the direction and rate of slope of the affected land and was <br />derived from a recent aerial survey and converted into an electronic file. Also shown on <br />Figure C3 are the names also and locations of creeks, roads, selected buildings and oil <br />and gas wells. Utilities were mapped specifically for this application for the expansion <br />area and are shown on Figure C3. Figure C4 shows Federal Emergency Management <br />Agency (FEMA) floodway and floodplain water information. Figure C5 presents USDA <br />soils information. <br />The available base topography was used to develop the Mining Plan and <br />Reclamation Plan Maps in Exhibits D and F, respectively. The ground surface ranges <br />from approximately El. 4,981 ft to El. 5,005 ft and generally slopes gently to the north <br />and northwest towards the South Platte River. <br />The total area to be involved in the amended operation, including mined areas and <br />areas of ancillary operations comprise approximately 287.8 acres, more or less. Of the <br />entire approximately 287.8 acres, more or less, that will comprise the proposed new <br />permitted area, approximately 172.5 acres comprise the existing permitted area, 36.1 <br />acres comprise existing reclaimed Ready Mixed Pit No. 1, and approximately 77.0 acres <br />comprise the new expansion. Current land use within the expansion area is primarily non- <br />irrigated rangeland and irrigated cropland with rental tenants living in two of the old <br />15
