HomeMy WebLinkAbout990395.tiff EXHIBIT I - SOILS INFORMATION This information follows the requirements as outlined in Section 6.4.9. 1. The applicant shall indicate on a map or by a statement, the general type,thickness and distribution of soil over the affected land. Such description will address suitability of topsoil (or other material) for establishment and maintenance of plant growth. The soils at the site include Aqolls and Aquents, gravelly substratum (3) and Bankard sandy loam (10), previously described in the January 1994 Amendment to the Permit. The proposed mine area also includes the Aquolls and Aquents, flooded (4). This nearly level unit is in depressions in smooth plains and along the bottoms of natural drainageways. It consists of deep, poorly drained loamy soils. Wetness and the hazard of flooding are the main limitations in farming and for most other purposes. The Aqolls and Aquents unit is used mainly for rangeland and potential is good for development of wetland wildlife habitat. The nature, depth and thickness of the deposit to be mined and the thickness and type of overburden to be removed is shown on test hole logs included in this section. Test hole locations are shown on the Existing Conditions Map included in Exhibit C. Andesite Mining Proposal for the Del Camino Pit-MLRB 112 Permit 31 EXHIBIT 990395 Z3 �:4�R3 E fi fi f va ,�i.

Describe the following: a) present vegetation types,which include quantitative estimates of cover and height for the principle species in each life-form represented (i.e., trees, tall shrubs, low shrubs, grasses, forbs) This property is currently managed to produce corn and alfalfa. There are narrow strips of native grasses and forbs adjacent to the existing irrigation ditches. Crop production on unmined portions of the amended area may continue if continued irrigation is amenable to the mining plan. _ b) the relationship of present vegetation types to soil types, or alternatively this information may be presented on a map; A copy of the USGS Soil Conservation District map is attached. c) estimates of average annual production for hay meadows and croplands, and carrying capacity for range lands on or in the vicinity of the affected land,if the choice of reclamation is for range or agriculture. The reclaimed portion of this property will not be utilized for crop production in the future. d) The Applicant shall show the relation of the types of vegetation to existing topography on a map in Exhibit C. The mining area is currently managed for production of corn and alfalfa. The topography is flat and slopes slightly to the northeast. An existing lateral of the Rural Ditch distributes water to the amendment area. Please see Exhibit C for additional information regarding the topography of the site. The property will be managed to prevent noxious weed growth or spread through appropriate mowing. Andesite Mining Proposal for the Del Camino Pit -MLRB 112 Permit 44 EXHIBIT K - CLIMATE INFORMATION There are no changes to this exhibit. Andesite Mining Proposal for the Del Camino Pit-MLRB 112 Permit 45 EXHIBIT L - RECLAMATION COST We have selected the mining phase that includes the largest area that will be disturbed at one time to calculate the potential reclamation liability for the Division of Minerals and Geology. This will occur during the beginning of Phase 3. At that point, Phase 1 areas will be in the process of reclamation, Phase 2 will be mined, Phase 3 will be stripped and ready to be mined. The dewatering trench will be at its maximum size, the processing area and haul roads will be disturbed, and shoreline reclamation will be in process for the ponds in Phase 2. It is anticipated that these disturbances will total approximately 25 acres. Concurrent reclamation will have taken place on the shoreline for Phases 1 and 2 and the bottom of the pond will begin to fill once dewatering has been stopped.
