- Document Description
- A conditional use permit for an 8.5-acre surface mining operating and development of a reclamation plan in accordance with the Surface Mining and Reclamation Act (SMARA) of 1975. The project is a one-time, short-term, borrow pit in direct support of a California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) project for the widening of State Highway 46. Access to the site is obtained from Bitterwater Valley Road. Material to be mined is fill material. Approximately 90,000 cubic yards of soil have been removed from the site. It is anticipated that an additional 60,000 cubic yards will need to be excavated to complete the CalTrans project. The excavated soil will be removed within an irregular shaped strip of property approximately 2,600 feet in length with a maximum width of approximately 290 feet. The soil will be excavated to a maximum depth of approximately 30 feet below natural grade. It is anticipated that excavation of the remaining 60,000 cubic yards of soil will take approximately 10-12 working days. It is anticipated that a maximum of 10 truck drivers and 5 equipment operators will be onsite at any one time. Upon completion of excavation and grading, the disturbed areas of the operation will be re-contoured with side slopes of the excavation being graded to a steepness of 5:1 (horizontal:vertical) or flatter. The disturbed area will then be drill seeded with the recommended seed mix to return the site to a natural state. The ultimate condition of the site is expected to be grazing land with a gentle swale extending through the excavated area of the property. Water will be obtained from Blackwell Land, LLC., and be utilized to control dust during mining operations.
