Describe any improvements necessary on existing roads and the specifications to <br />be used in the construction of new roads. New or improved roads must be included as part <br />of the permitted acreage. Describe any associated drainage and runoff conveyance structures <br />to include sufficient information to evaluate structure sizing; <br />specify how much water will be used in conjunction with the operation, and the source of <br />this water; <br />if groundwater will be encountered and /or surface water intercepted or disturbed, describe <br />how mining will affect the quantity and quality of the surface or groundwater and the <br />methods to be used to minimize disturbance to the surface and groundwater systems <br />including proposed dewatering, sediment - containment or chemical treatment systems, storm <br />water run -off controls, and groundwater points of compliance; <br />specify how you will comply with applicable Colorado water laws and regulations <br />governing injury to existing water rights; <br />if refuse and acid or toxic producing materials are exposed during mining, describe how <br />they shall be handled and disposed of in a manner that will control unsightliness and protect <br />the drainage system from pollution; <br />describe what measures will be taken to minimize disturbance to the hydrologic balance, <br />prevent off -site damage, and provide for a stable configuration of the reclaimed area <br />consistent with the proposed future land use; <br />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 <br />intended use; and <br />(o) name and describe the intended use of all expected incidental products to be mined /extracted <br />by the proposed operation. <br />(p) <br />Specify if explosives will be used in conjunction with the mining or reclamation. In <br />consultation with the Office, the Applicant must demonstrate, pursuant to Subsection 6.5(4), <br />Geotechnical Stability Exhibit, that off site areas will not be adversely affected by blasting <br />during mining or reclamation operations. <br />Page 4 of 7 <br />
