There is no evidence the land was ever developed into a tract suitable to be irrigated by <br />a sprinkler system, but rather a flood irrigation technique was utilized. <br />A lood irrigated <br />de. systen 1 as be... deve fei H e i gated pastwe efe ence a ea.

L property, .113U. t t $a lie <br />irrigation <br />design was developed by West ern Fuels based on accepted NRCS ouidance and <br />formulas. This design can be seen in Attachment 2.05.4(21(e) -9. This design gives a <br />total Irrigated Pasture (IP).. This area could be e the. baled m g raredof 25.62 acres The <br />remainder area of the Lloyd's property will be festered to Dryland Pasture (DP). <br />This is an area of 54.12 acres. <br />See Mao 2.05.4 -5 for the location of the irrigated and the drvland pasture Portions of this tract. <br />This map also shows the reclaimed surface topography. Additional lands surrounding this 25.62 <br />acre irrigated area can be irrigated in the future if Lloyd desires to do so. A minimum of 62 acres <br />can be irrigated since the slopes are very mild (10 feet vertical change in 250 feet). which <br />represents the planned final topography, as seen on Mao 2.05.4 -5. As of May 2010 most of this <br />area has already been reclaimed to these slopes. Since the planned irrigation area (25.62 acres) <br />is at the high Point of the property, all lower areas can be easily irrigated if Lloyd decides to make <br />more water available for this area The map shows the main pipe that would be used to irrigate <br />the proposed 25.62 acre area. If additional areas are irrigated after bond release, the pipe would <br />be extended to the north or south, as needed <br />3) The Parcel immediately west of the Lloyd parcel, which areas now owned by Western Fuels - <br />This -is a total of 5-795.6089 acres in the permit area This land was purchased from Johnson. <br />This tract was originally classified by Peabody Coal as Irrigated Pasture (IP). <br />Portions of these tracts were "W 'd Flood "Flood Irrigated" in the past. There were no <br />furrows, gated pipe, side roll sprinkler system or other methods to control water <br />distribution. Irrigation water was allowed to traverse over the land at will. <br />PR -06 May 2010 2.05.4(2)(e) - 5 <br />
