COUNTY OF ADAMS STATE OF COLORADO Signal'ure: Ow /Authorized Agen subscribed and sworn to before me this ay of , 1981 .- SEAL l NOTARY UBLI C My Commission expires June 6 . 1983 EXHIBIT A LEGAL DESCRIPTION This leveling area is located east of I-76 on Weld County Road 4. It is on a portion of the NE 1/4 of Section 32, T. 1 N, R. 65 W. t EXHIBIT B MINING PLAN The purpose of this operation is to level an area which is currently being farmed with dry land crops. Irrigation water is available but cannot be used due to topography. The material is primarily blow sand. The excess material to the land leveling will be used as fill material for the interchange at I-76 and Weld County Road 4. Approximately 277,000 cubic yards will be excavated and hauled to the project approximately one-half mile away. The average depth of the cut will be 5.7 feet. The methods of mining are left to the contractor. However, the following describes, in general , the phase and sequence that may be used in the mining operation: 1 . The top 8 inches of top soil will be removed and stock- piled. 2. The excavation will start at the north portion of the area indicated and work toward the south. It will be excavated in such a matter that a near level field will result. The field will drain to the northwest which is the same as the natural drainage in the surrounding area. 3. The following is a list of equipment that could be used in the mining operation. A. Earth-moving scrapers - used for stripping and stockpiling topsoil ; used also for excavating and hauling borrow material to the project. B. Haul trucks. C. Dozer crawlers - generally used for pushing scrapers while loading. D. Motor graders - used for building and maintaining haul roads and final grading in the pit. E. Rubber tire front-end loaders - used to excavate and load haul trucks. F. There will be supporting fuel and service vehicles in and out of the area for the above-listed equipment. 4. Extimate that the time required to mine the phase will be • approximately 30 days. It should be noted that the contractor would not be held to that specified time limit for mining. He is also allowed latitude on equipment he chooses to use and on methods of operating the pit. The end use of the area will be for irrigated crop land. EXHIBIT C LOCATION MAP See Map Pocket. f EXHIBIT D WILDLIFE INFORMATION Wildlife will be fenced out of the excavated area in order to protect the land owner's crops. WATER RESOURCES This operation is not expected to affect the surface or ground and water systems. SOILS See attached SCS Report. VEGETATION The existing vegetation is from natural cover of sand bluestem, blue grama, side oats grama, and sand dropseed. The remainder of the area has been irrigated crops planted by the land owner. SOILS AND VEGETATION INFORMATION Olney fine sandy loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes . This is a deep, well drained soil on plains at elevations of 4,600 to 5,200 feet. It formed in mdxed outwash deposits. In- cluded in mapping are small areas of soils that have a dark surface layer. Some smalT leveled areas are also included. Typically, the surface layer of this Olney soil is grayish brown fine sandy loam about 10 inches thick. The subsoil is yellowish brown and very pale brown sandy clay loam about 14 inches thick. The substratum to a depth of 60 inches is very pale brown, calcareous fine sandy loam. Permeability and available water capacity are moderate. The effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Surface runoff is medium, and the erosion hazard is low. In irrigated areas, this soil is suited to all crops commonly grown in the area, including corn, sugar beets, beans, alfalfa, small grain, potatoes and onions. An example of a suitable cropping system is 3 to 4 years of alfalfa followed by corn, corn for silage, sugar beets, small grain or beans. Land leveling, ditch lining, and instal- ling pipelines may be needed for proper water application. All methods of irrigation are suitable, but furrow irrigation is the most common. Barnyard manure and commercial fertilizer are needed for top yields. In nonirrigated areas, this soil is suited to winter wheat, barley and sorghum. Most of the acreage is planted to winter wheat. The predicted average yield is 28 bushels per acre. The soil is summer fallowed in alternate years to allow moisture accumulation. General- ly precipitation is too low for beneficial use of fertilizer. Stubble mulch farming, striperopping and minimum tillage are needed to control soil blowing and water erosion. Terracing also may be needed to control water erosion. The potential native vegetation on this range site is dominated by sand bluestem, sand reedgrass and blue grama. Needleandthread, switchgrass, sideoats grama and western wheatgrass are also prominent. Potential production ranges from 2,200 pounds per acre in favorable years to 1 ,800 pounds in unfavorable years. As range condition de- teriorates, the sand bluestem, sand reedgrass and switchgrass de- crease and blue grama, sand dropseed and sand sage increase. Annual weeds and grasses invade the site as range condition becomes poorer. Management of vegetation on this soil should be based on taking half and leaving half of the total annual production. Seeding is desireable if the range is in poor condition. Sand bluestem, sand reedgrass, switchgrass, sideoats grama, blue grama and pubescent wheatgrass are suitable for seeding. The grass selected should meet the seasonal requirements of livestock. It can be seeded into a clean, firm .sorghum stubble or it can be drilled into a firm pre- pared seedbed. Seeding early in spring has proven most successful . Windbreaks and environmental plantings are generally suited to this soil . Soil blowing, the principal hazard in establishing trees and shrubs, can be controlled by cultivating only in the tree row and by leaving a strip of vegetation between the rows. Supple- mental irrigation may be needed at the time of planting and during dry periods. Trees that are best suited and have good survival are Rocky Mountain juniper, eastern redcedar, ponderosa pine, Siberian elm, Russion-olive and hackberry. The shrubs best suited are skunkbush sumac, lilac and Siberian peashrub. Wildlife is an important secondary use of this soil . The crop- land areas provide favorable habitat for ring-necked pheasant and returning dove. Many nongame species can be attracted by establishing areas for nesting and escape cover. For pheasants, undisturbed nesting cover is essential and should be included in plans for habitat development, especially in areas of intensive agriculture. Rangeland wildlife, for example, the proghorn antelope, can be attracted by developing livestock water facilities, managing livestock grazing and reseeding where needed. Rapid expansion of Greeley and the surrounding area has resulted in urbanization of much of the Olney soil . This soil has good poten- tial for urban and recreational development. The only limiting feature is the moderately rapid permeability in the substratum, which causes a hazard of ground water contamination from sewage lagoons. Lawns, shrubs and trees grow well . Capability subclass Ile irrigated, IVe nonirrigated; Sandy Plains range site. Vona sandy loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes. This is a deep, well drained soil on plains and high terraces at elevations of 4,600 to 5,200 feet. It formed in eolian and alluvial deposits. Included in mapping are some leveled areas. Also included are small areas of soils that have a loamy substratum and areas of soils that are noncalcarous to a depth of 60 inches. Typically, the surface layer of this Vona soil is grayish brown sandy loam about 10 inches thick. The subsoil is brown fine sandy loam about 18 inches thick. The substratum to a depth of 60 inches is sandy loam. Permeability is moderately rapid. Available water capacity is moderate. The effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Surface runoff is slow and the erosion hazard is low. In irrigated areas, this soil is suited to all crops commonly grown in the area, including corn, sugar beets, beans, alfalfa, small grain and onions. An example of a suitable cropping system is 3 to 4 years of alfalfa followed by corn, corn for silage, sugar beets, small grain or beans. Land leveling, ditch lining and installing pipelines are needed for proper water applications. All methods of irrigation are suitable, but furrow irrigation is the most common. Barnyard manure and commercial fertilizer are needed for top yields. Windbreaks and environmental plantings are generally suited to this soil . Soil blowing, the principal hazard in establishing trees and shrubs, can be controlled by cultivating only in the tree row and by leaving a strip of vegetation between the rows. Supplemental irrigation may be necessary at the time of planting and during dry periods. Trees that are best suited and have good survival are Rocky Mountain juniper, eastern redcedar, ponderosa pine, Siberian elm, Russian-olive and hackberry. The shrubs best suited are skunkbush sumac, lilac and Siberian peashrub. Wildlife is an important secondary use of this soil . The cropland areas provide favorable habitat for ring-necked pheasant and mourning dove. Many nongame species can be attracted by establish- ing areas for nesting and escape cover. For pheasants, undisturbed nesting cover is essential and should be included in plans for habitat development, especially in areas of intensive agriculture. Range- land wildlife, for example, the pronghorn antelope, can be attracted by developing livestock watering facilities, managing livestock grazing and reseeding where needed. This soil has good potential for urban and recreational develop- ment. Lawns, shrubs and trees grow well . The only limiting feature is the rapid permeability in the substratum, which causes a hazard of ground water contamination from sewage lagoons. Capability subclass Ile irrigated; IVe nonirrigated; Sandy Plains range site. Vona sandy loam, 3 to 5 percent slopes. This is a deep, well drained soil on plains at elevations of 4,600 to 5,200 feet. It formed in eolian deposits. Included in mapping are small areas of soils that have a loamy substratum and areas of soils that are noncalcareous to a depth of 60 inches. Typically, the surface layer of this Vona soil is grayish brown sandy loam about 8 inches thick. The subsoil is brown fine sandy loam about 15 inches thick. The substratum to a depth of 60 inches is sandy loam. Permeability is moderately rapid. Available water capacity is moderate. The effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Surface runoff is medium, and the erosion hazard is low. In irrigated areas, this soil is suited to the crops commonly grown in the area. Perennial grasses and alfalfa or close grown crops should be grown at least 50 percent of the time. Contour ditches and corrugations can be used in irrigating close grown crops and pasture. Furrows, contour furrows and cross slope furrows are suitable for row crops. Sprinkler irrigation is also desirable. Keeping tillage to a minimum and utilizing crop residue help to control erosion. Maintaining fertility is important. Crops respond well to applications of phosphorus and nitrogen. In nonirrigated areas, this soil is suited to winter wheat, barley, and sorghum. Most of the acreage is planted to winter wheat. The predicted average yield is 28 bushels per acre. The soil is summer fallowed in alternate years to allow moisture accumulation. Generally, precipitation is too low to make beneficial use of fertilizer. Mulch farming, striperopping and minimum tillage are needed to control soil blowing and water erosion. Terracing also may be needed to control water erosion. The potential native vegetation on this range site is dominated by sand bluestem, sand reedgrass and blue grama. Needleandthread, switchgrass, sideoats grama and western wheatgrass are also pro- minent. Potential production ranges from 2,200 pounds per acre in favorable years to 1 ,800 pounds in unfavorable years. As range con- dition deteriorates, the sand bluestem, sand reedgrass and switch- grass decrease and blue grama, sand dropseed and sand sage increase. Annual weeds and grasses invade the site as range condition becomes poorer. Management of vegetation on this soil should be based on taking half and leaving half of the total annual production. Seeding is desirable if range is in poor condition. Sand bluestem, sand reedgrass, • switchgrass, sideoats grama, blue grama, pubescent wheatgrass and crested wheatgrass are suitable for seeding. The grass selected should meet the seasonal requirements of livestock. It can be seeded into a clean, firm sorghum stubble, or it can be drilled into a firm prepared seedbed. Seeding early in spring has proven most successful . Windbreaks and environmental plantings generally are suited to this soil . Soil blowing, the principal hazard in establishing trees and shrubs, can be controlled by cultivating only in the tree row and by leaving a strip of vegetation between the rows. Supplemental irrigation may be needed at the time of planting and during dry periods.

This objective is consis- tent and compatible with surrounding land uses. Also, it was dis- cussed with and agreed upon by the landowner, Soil Conservation Ser- vice and the Division of Highways. The implementation of the reclamation plan will have no adverse affect on water, wildlife, air, soils or vegetation. Water Since surface and ground water will not be disturbed, there will be no affect on water. Wildlife There will be no impact on the wildlife since this is a fenced crop area. Air This area appears to be free of poor quality air. This is due to the almost daily winds. Except for a small increase in dust during the mining operation, there will be no adverse affect. Soil Prior to excavating the borrow area, 6 to 8 inches of topsoil will be stripped and stockpiled. After the excavation is complete, this topsoil will be replaced as uniformly as possible. Other than disturbing the topsoil , there will be no adverse affect on it. Furthermore, it does not contain any toxic materials and will not come into contact with any during the mining operation. Vegetation Seeding for reclamation will be in accordance with the owner's desire. He will probably initially plant alfalfa. Reclamation Procedures The following is a summary of the reclamation procedures and phases that will be required to reclaim the area: 1 . All humps and depressions will be cut and/or filled so that the final grade is left in a neat and smooth condition. The slopes resulting from the excavation will be left no steep- er than 10:1 . 2. The previously stockpiled topsoil will be placed over the area as uniformly as possible 6 to 8 inches deep. 3. Seeding and fertilizing will be required. The following types and rates will be used: Seeding Rate Common Name PLS/ACRE Brome Grass 3.5 Alfalfa 9.0 Fertilizer Cow Manure 18 tons per acre 4. The following equipment will probably be used: A. Grader - for shaping the area B. Earth-moving scrapers - for replacing topsoil C. Seed Drill D. Fertilizer spreader EXHIBIT F LOCAL GOVERNMENT APPROVAL Weld County is concurrently reviewing an Application for a Conditional Use and is expected to have approval by the 17th of March, 1981 EXHIBIT G SOURCE OF LEGAL RIGHT TO ENTER Attached is a copy of the agreement with George David Kilker and Ramsour Brothers.

Part of the subject tract lies at the northern end of a prominent field of sand dunes, as shown on our gravel resources map of the Hudson quadrangle. Well logs show about 25 to 40 ft of sand in these dunes. Overall impacts should be very slight because the site is to be operated for a very short time and for one specific road project located about 0.5 mile from the access road to the pit. If the 30-ft buffer will be maintained on each side of the Neres Canal as shown on the extraction plan, no damage should result to the canal . I see no geologic problems involved with operation of this borrow pit. Sincerely, Stephen D. Schwochow Engineering Geologist 9p cc LUC GEOLOGY STORY OF THE PAST . . .
