Mr. Bill Fleck <br /> May 27, 1988 <br /> Page 2 <br /> "THE PROPOSAV <br /> Mineral extraction of clay and underlying sandy-till soil is <br /> proposed. Clay is from 2 to 8-feet deep and has been tested and is <br /> suitable for construction on nearby jobs. Sandy-till soil is from <br /> 10 to 20-feet deep and is also suitable as clean fill on nearby <br /> jobs. <br /> ▪ Soil will be excavated and loaded for removal and taken out to the <br /> existing access road which extends to Hwy. 14 (See Figure 3). <br /> Operations will commence on approximately July 1, 1988 and end with <br /> final reclamation on or about October 1, 1989. Reclamation will <br /> include retopsoiling and seeding, and removal of the silt control <br /> berm. <br /> • Topsoil will be saved and placed back on the excavated area, and <br /> final use will be farmland. Existing use was farmland and wooded <br /> area. The trees will be salvaged as firewood over time as the <br /> woods are removed. <br /> No water will be used in the operations. <br /> ▪ The land will be graded to drain in a similar pattern as exists <br /> today, only the land will be flatter from 1% to 3:1 slopes. During <br /> operations a silt control berm will be used along the lower <br /> portions of the site as shown on Figure 3. This will protect the <br /> wetlands. <br /> The enclosed figures show the: <br /> - location of operation <br /> - excavation area and final contours <br /> - there are no residences within 600-feet <br /> - the only surface water in the area is a drainage ditch <br /> approximately 400-feet south of the extraction area. This <br /> ditch will be protected from siltation by the silt control <br /> berm. This ditch downstream 1 to 2 miles runs into Black <br /> Earth Creek. <br /> - the wetland south of the excavation area as shown on Figure 3 <br /> will be avoided, and protected from siltation by the silt <br /> control berm. <br /> - access will be from the west onto an existing access road as <br /> shown on Figure 3. <br /> 1169.01:REFUSE:fleck:05/24/88 <br /> INC. <br />
