-3- <br />(g) specify the dimensions of any existing or proposed roads that will be used for the mining <br />operation. Describe any improvements necessary on existing roads and the specifications to be <br />used in the construction of new roads. New or improved roads must be included as part of the <br />permitted acreage. Describe any associated drainage and runoff conveyance structures to <br />include sufficient information to evaluate structure sizing; <br />(h) specify how much water will be used in conjunction with the operation, and the source of this <br />water; <br />(i) if groundwater will be encountered and/or surface water intercepted or disturbed, describe how <br />mining will affect the quantity and quality of the surface or groundwater and the methods to be <br />used to minimize disturbance to the surface and groundwater systems including proposed <br />dewatering, sediment-containment or chemical treatment systems, storm water run-off controls, <br />and groundwater points of compliance; <br />(j) specify how you will comply with applicable Colorado water laws and regulations governing <br />injury to existing water rights; <br />(k) if refuse and acid or toxic producing materials are exposed during mining, describe how they <br />shall be handled and disposed of in a manner that will control unsightliness and protect the <br />drainage system from pollution; <br />(1) describe what measures will be taken to minimize disturbance to the hydrologic balance, prevent <br />off-site damage, and provide for a stable configuration of the reclaimed area consistent with the <br />proposed future land use; and <br />(m) specify whether the deposit will be processed on-site. If the deposit will be processed, then <br />describe the nature of the process, facilities and chemicals utilized. The process area and any <br />structures must be described on Exhibit E - Map. <br />(n) identify the primary and secondary commodities to be mined/extracted and describe the intended <br />use; and <br />(o) name and describe the intended use of all expected incidental products to be mined/extracted by <br />the proposed operation. <br />EXHIBIT D - Reclamation Plan (Rule 6.3.4): (1) The purpose of the Reclamation Plan is to describe the <br />timing, procedures, criteria and materials that will be used to reclaim the affected land to the proposed future land <br />use. This plan must be correlated to Exhibit E - Map. The description of the Reclamation Plan must be adequate <br />to satisfy the requirements of Section 3.1 and demonstrate compliance with Rule 3. At a minimum, the <br />Application shall include the following information: <br />(a) specify at what point in the mining plan and to what depth(s) overburden will be replaced, in <br />relation to ongoing extraction. <br />(b) specify the maximum gradient of reclaimed slopes (horizontal:vertical). If the Application <br />proposes slopes steeper than 3:1, you must include a justification that supports steeper slopes for <br />the proposed post-mining land use, and demonstrates compliance with the applicable <br />performance standards of Section 3.1. <br />(c) specify the measures that will be taken to revegetate the site, if applicable, including:
