M- 2004 - 009 -AM -2 REPORT YEAR: AUG. 4, 2012 THRU AUG. 4, 2013 This DMG Regular 112 Permit (No. M- 2004 -009) was approved by the Division for operations on August 4, 2004 and the most recent amendment (AM -2) to this permit was approved on March 18, 2013, changing the post- mining land use and reclamation plan. Also, on June 26, 2013, an approval for acreage reduction was received reducing the permit area by approximately 75 acres encompassing the finished reservoir, the waste water treatment plant and a small reclaimed area in the northwest of the permit. The total permit area is now approximately 200 acres with the only areas remaining to be mined being in the south "Triangle" area north of US Hwy. -52, the far west side area west of Boulder Cr. and a small area remaining under the old plant site now containing stockpiles. During the reporting year, a small area consisting of approximately 3 acres was mined in the northeast area of the "Triangle" (see map). Reclamation for the reporting year consisted entirely of completing the water - storage reservoir in the north - central portion of the permit area and releasing it from further reclamation liabilities. Approximately 4.0 acres may be mined during the next reporting year in the same area as mining occurred during this reporting year A map is attached to this report showing the areas and acreages described above. Sufficiency of Value of Financial Warranty The permittee holds a Financial Warranty for the permit through Great American Insurance Company in the full amount of $1,025,887.00, a figure sufficient to achieve all reclamation requirements under the current permit. A check in the amount of $791.00 is being submitted with this report to cover the Annual Fee required to maintain this permit in good standing.
