Identifying and addressing pertinent issues in the preparation stage will minimize delays later on in the approval process. , The determine id n of i h issues should be addressed in the reclamation plan for a specific site should be based on the size of the proposed operation,i tential environmental impacts,and the proposed end use of the site. Thos items marked with an"X"are pr wired b s ecif s t la u e. Other items should not be considered as mandatory but may be-required by the County, en, depending on site ape - circumstances.

Maps Site A : Provide a road map which clearly shows how to gel to the site from the nearest fawn. [X] To Ic Ma 2: This map is necessary to establish the location and regional setting of the mine site. The map should E evation contours,natural ground slopes,drainage patterns,and other topographic features of the mine site an 1 sunding region within one mile of the mine site. Use U.S.Geological Survey 7-'/�or 15 minute maps, which theost accurate and useful. B. Ggplo i [X] I. P Ivide a description of the general geology of the area and a detailed description of the area in which mining is to beconducted. The information will be used to assess potential adverse environmental impacts. Specifically,the g is description should include: [ ] a. A description of geologic setting. i [ ] b. Geologic cross section(s)In the location of proposed slopes,dams,tailings facilities,etc.adequate to assess tential"stability problems. . [ ] c.
