2010 Annual Report <br />Snyder Quarry <br />M-1977-210 <br />Castle Concrete Company <br />Anniversary Date: May 27 <br />Overview of Permit Year: During the 2009-2010 operating year Snyder Quarry was very active with the <br />landslide at the Pikeview Quarry. For the most part mining in Area WP was completed and work commenced <br />in Area AP. Nearly 150000 tons of material was moved into the northwest corner of Area WP to continue the <br />backfilling of the over-excavation. Additional equipment was moved into the quarry to increase production. <br />Area AP had a new road constructed to the north end of the permit boundary to facilitate opening up this area. <br />Annual Report Maps: The map provided in this annual report reflects the technical revision that was <br />approved in 2009 and includes the affected lands in Area AP. <br />Affected Lands: The amount of affected land increased by approximately 6.0 acres in the last year as Castle <br />moved into Area AP. Some production occurred in Area WP in 2009 but by 2010 all production was being <br />handled by the material being removed from Area AP. This is the land above the existing pit and will be <br />accessed by a two lane haul road for trucking material off of the higher areas of the quarry. <br />Reclamation: The site is stable and is not sub)ect to erosion. The storm water management systems were <br />maintained including cleaning of all culverts and new drainage channel and rip rap on the south side of the <br />access road into the quarry. Noxious weeds were also sprayed and this will continue. There was a new inlet <br />installed directly below the gate to the quarry to handle storm water from the quarry. <br />Expected Activity (2010 - 2011): The operation will continue with an increase in production and sales from <br />the previous year. <br />Bonding: This operation is covered under a financial warranty corporate surety arrangement provided by <br />Westchester Fire Insurance Company. <br />Castle Concrete 2009-2010 Annual Report M-1977-210 Snyder Quarry Page 1 of 1
