(f) The size of area that will be worked at any one time will not exceed the permit <br />area. The area to be disturbed at one time depends on the market conditions <br />and may be as large as the entire 110 Limited Impact Permit boundary area. No <br />excavation is to be done, therefore no stockpiles for topsoil or overburden. <br />However, areas of Timber slash (Timber slash consists of, not only, tree crowns, <br />limbs and discarded logs, as well as stumps) will be in location throughout the <br />permit area for use during reclamation. <br />(g) The road from the gate to the processing area is expected to be 11' -13' feet <br />wide and lead to the processing area. The road is an existing road that has been <br />used for accessing the ranch property and the future residential home site. The <br />road will not be reclaimed rather is will remain for the property to access the new <br />home site. <br />(h) No water will be used in the production of the product. Water will only be used <br />for dust control and Best Management Practices. It will be form local sources <br />and trucked to the site. <br />(i) No groundwater will be encountered during the mining - extraction process. <br />Stormwater diversions and impoundments will be done in a way to prevent <br />erosion and sedimentation. Care will be taken while mining (rock picking), to <br />divert storm water. Water that collects on the harvesting area will percolate into <br />the underlying soils. <br />(j) The operator /applicant will comply with Colorado water quality laws and <br />regulations governing injury to existing water rights. It is not anticipated that any <br />water will be encountered. If ground water is encountered, the proper steps at the <br />State Engineers office will be complied with. <br />(k) No acid or toxic materials will be used or encountered on this site. No <br />processing will take place that uses water or any toxic materials. <br />(1) The hydrologic balance will not be influenced by the mining (rock picking) on <br />this site. The initial preparation of the surface before extraction of the boulders <br />and assorted selected rocks will consist of clearing some of the trees that are in <br />the boulder field. Since the activity of rock picking will only disturbed the soil on <br />which the boulder or rock contact the soil no excavation will be required. An <br />excavators, and a rubber tired loader will be use to collect the rock from the <br />boulder field. This activity will not change the historic drainage of the site. All of <br />the temporary diversion structure used to manage the stormwater during the <br />
