Disturbed Areas Existing Conditions Map <br />Please find the modified map. The four (4) bold outlined areas within Phase I are delineated for <br />site development and use. The green shaded area represents Phase 1. <br />Mine Plan <br />Mining will proceed in sequential Phases 1, 2 and 3 with bond posted for total potential acreage <br />disturbance within a designated phase. Mining will not occur in "5 -acre cells." Reclamation will <br />occur concurrently with mining. The mine plan will be consist throughout the permitted area. <br />Using naturals, slopes will be reconstructed and any excess naturals will be used to backfill <br />areas not proposed for lined water storage areas. When transitional slopes are necessary <br />between backfilled areas and areas of undisturbed elevation, slopes will be no steeper than <br />3H:1 V. The topography of backfilled areas will blend with undisturbed elevations. Slopes with <br />the water storage area will be constructed to 3H:1 V. <br />Hydrology <br />With only 19 acres remaining to be mined within Phase 1, 5.5 aces of exposed water surface <br />will be sufficient for dewatering and collection needs. When mining moves into Phase 2, the <br />proposed sedimentation pond is 3 acres. <br />The operator commits to filing an amendment with DWR in the event the active mining area is <br />expected to exceed 50 acres. <br />Reclamation Plan <br />Final reclamation will be a combination of wetlands, recreational land and water storage. Within <br />Phase 1, approximately 82 acres will be clay lined water storage, approximately 20 acres will be <br />wetlands and approximately 26 acres will be backfilled recreational land. Phase 2 will be <br />reclaimed as wetlands. Phase 3 will be reclaimed as clay lined water storage. <br />Water storage will commence upon completion of Phase 1. <br />Please contact me directly with any questions. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Angela M.
