The building sites are 1.5 acres each for a total of 3.0 acres <br />plus or minus. <br />Item 2 - The material stockpiled in Stage 6 is our raw pit run gravel for processing. It <br />covers 10 to 12 acres and will be used throughout the life of the mine. The overburden <br />from Stage 3 is stockpiled on the plant site and is available for sale. Whitewater feels that <br />this material will not be used for reclamation. <br />Item 3 - Currently overburden from 3B is being stockpiled in the area of a TR issued in <br />2004 and is in a future extraction area. This overburden is within 500 feet of its final <br />reclamation site. By keeping overburden stockpiles within each Stage, and using the <br />extraction and set back areas, we will keep the haul distance to a minimum, <br />approximately 500 to 1000 feet. See Map enclosed for approximate locations. <br />Item 4 - Under the reconfiguration of mining Stages it will require 10 additional acres <br />more than our current permit which will be a total of 40 acres of surface disturbance. <br />Item 5 - Stages with completed grading and earthwork. <br />Stage 2A = 10.69 plus or minus acres. <br />Stage 3A = 2 plus or minus acres.
