Document Description
In response to an increased market demand for aggregate in the Truckee region over recent years, production from the Martis Valley Aggregate site has steadily increased since 1994 to about 1 million (1,000,000) tons in 2001. Current annual production from this mine is approximately 500,000 tons per year. To meet projected production goals and to maintain access to high quality aggregate at the mine site, Teichert proposes to modify its existing CUP to allow mining below the current permitted final reclamation surface in a select area encompassing about 50 to 60 acres within the existing mine. The existing CUP (Condition of Approval) restricts mining to 2 feet above the average groundwater level. The proposed amendment would allow mining to be expanded to a depth not to exceed 40 feet below the groundwater table.
