The answers to your questions are as follows: • 10.191(2)2(c)3—Approximate depth to ground water is the existing/proposed permanent pond water elevation as shown on Existing Contour Map and Reclamation Plan(in original submittals). • I0.191(2)2(c)4—Materials to be extracted would/could be sand,gravel, sandstone, limestone,clay,topsoil,etc.—amounts will vary on demand. • 10.191(2)2(c)8—Haul routes will continue to be out the northeast corner of the property on the existing asphalt paved entrance onto Natvig Road(see existing Operations map) then directly east to CTH `N'. This portion of Natvig Road has been previously reconstructed to highway standards through a joint effort of RG Huston Company,Dane County and the Town of Cottage Grove. • 10.191(2)2(c)9—Since this has been an existing operation for quite a few years,we are entering the final phase of the operation which is the final mining of the southern-most portion of the remaining property. • 10.191(2)2(c)10—The proposed equipment for extraction and processing of material on- site will remain the same as it has been in the past with loaders,dozers,backhoes, crushers,screeners,wash plants,haul trucks,dump trucks,etc. This equipment will be used as demands for product require. • 10.191(2)2(c)l l —Frequency of mining,crushing,screening,washing,refueling will be performed as demand warrants—varies greatly but will not be a constant every day, every week for every month operation. Drilling and blasting will be a rare occurrence and will require us to apply for and get approval of a blasting permit from the Town of Cottage Grove. Bulk fuel will not be stored on site. Asphalt or Concrete batch plants are not planned at this time and if the need arises in the future,will require a separate conditional use permit. • 10.191(2)2(c)12—It is our intent at this time to remain above the water table with the remaining mineral extraction. We may need to deepen and widen the existing on-site detention pond that we created to accommodate the needs of the proposed reclamation uses of the property. If that occurs,we keep our excavation equipment out of the water (except for the bucket/boom arm of the backhoe). We will require fueling and AN I:QUA! oil)(W.I UN!14` E ttt['hOyj.j.
