In the event of a conflict between maps or submittals, the most recent submittal shall be deemed to supersede all prior maps or submittals and to be binding on Martin Marietta. c. Prior to commencement of any work on the Real Estate, Martin Marietta shall provide to the "Director" of the Department of Community Services ("DOCS ") copies of mining approvals and permits from every governmental agency having jurisdiction over the Real Estate and the related underground mining activities of Martin Marietta on the Real Estate, including all submittals to such govemmental agencies, and shall include all specifications and restrictions contained in such submittals and approvals. D. Martin Marietta shall use the existing entrance on 96th Street for haul trucks and other heavy equipment accessing the Real Estate. :- ~ II. Blasting Practices. A General Requirements. 1. Martin Marietta shall comply with all applicable state and federal regulations as they relate to blasting on the Real Estate. 2. All underground blasting on the Real Estate shall be limited to the period from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on weekdays (except on holidays recognized by the State ofIndiana when no underground blasting shall be allowed). 3. Explosives used in an underground blast on the Real Estate shall not be detonated at other times, except when necessary to detonate a loaded shot that could not be detonated because of conditions that could not be reasonably foreseen by Martin Marietta, to maintain blasting safety, or as required to comply with applicable governmental requirements. 4. Martin Marietta shall notify the Director promptly of any underground blast that may occur or actually occurs outside the prescribed times of day on the Real Estate. It is the intent of this paragraph that Martin Marietta shall notify DOCS as soon as is reasonably possible in the event of the occurrence of a blast outside of the prescribed times so as to permit representatives of DOCS to respond to any community inquiries in respect thereof. 5. Individuals trained and experienced in the design and safe use of underground blasting systems and licensed by the State of Indiana shall conduct all underground blasting on the Real Estate. 6. Underground blasting on the Real Estate shall occur no closer than one thousand three hundred (1,300') feet (measured horizontally) to any currently existing occupied, single-family residential structure (excluding those situated on the so-called "MuelJer Property North" and "Mueller Property South"), or within one hundred (100) feet, measured horizontally, of any underground pipeline, unless the pipeline company authorizes, or confirms in writing to the Director, a lesser distance, provided that such distance shall in no event be less than twenty-five (25) feet. 7. Explosives shall not be stored on the Real Estate. Martin Marietta shall use best practices \vhen loading explosives on the Real Estate, and the amount of explosives loaded into each hole shall be monitored to avoid overloading a blast. 8. Fly rock from the Real Estate shall not leave the property owned or controlled by Martin Marietta. 9. Martin Marietta MM shall use blast designs intended to increase frequency levels above 20 hz. Frequency levels and the achievement of frequencies 2 't' above 20 hz shall be one of the review criteria for the annual review of Martin Marietta's practices specified herein. 10. The commitment herein to any blast design, drilling, or stemming reconm1endation is made expressly subject to the legal right and the duty of the blaster to vary the design to account for the circumstances of each individual blast and shall not be deemed to restlict or interfere with the exercise of the blaster's judgment and discretion, nor to relieve the blaster of responsibility for the safe use of explosives. B. Vibration Limits. 1. The maximum peak particle velocities for any blast on the Real Estate shall comply with: (1) the requirements of the rules and regulations of the Indiana Department of Homeland Security, generally consistent with Indiana Code 22-11-14, and the regulations promulgated thereunder pursuant to 675 lAC 26; and (2) the frequency and vibration criteria referenced in the former U.S. Bureau of Mines Report of Investigations (RT) 8507, Structural Response and Damage Produced by Ground Vibration from Surface Mine blasting (Siskind 1980), including the frequency and vibration curve therein commonly referred to as the Siskind Curve; and (3) shall not exceed .5 inches per second peak particle velocity when measured at the property line of any existing single family residential structure in the City of Carmel not owned by Martin Marietta or Mueller. C. Monitoring Guidelines. 1. All blast vibrations on the Real Estate shall be monitored by Vibra- Tech Engineering, Inc. ("Vibra- Tech"), who shall be responsible for reviewing and analyzing the data. 2. All blasts on the Real Estate shall be monitored by no less than six properly calibrated seismographs recording horizontal and vertical ground vibrations. The location of the monitoling stations shall be acceptable to the Director. All equipment for the monitoring of blasts will be maintained and calibrated by the monitoring company exclusively. 3. The Director may require that additional monitoring stations be located, or that existing monitoring stations be relocated to or from certain sites; provided, however, that Martin Marietta shall not be required to provide more than two additional monitoring locations at any given point in time. 4. Records shall be kept by Matiin Madetta for each underground blast on the Real Estate, consistent with all requirements set forth in the Indiana Administrative Code (675 lAC 26-3-1, Sec. l(u)) and shall include the following: 3 ~ a. the date, time and specific location of ead1 blast; b. identification of the closest residential structure, and approximate distance from the blast; c. the name and license number of the person conducting the blast; and d. the number of holes, diameter and depth of holes, the delay pattern and design, and number of detonators used. 5. Martin Marietta shall maintain all records of blasting on the Real Estate for a period not less than three (3) years. 6. Annually, within thirty (30) days of the armiversary of the issuance of the permit that is the subject of Docket No. 08030032 SU (but not earlier than the commencement of underground blasting), Martin Marietta shall provide a report of underground blasting on the Real Estate to the Director for the preceding year. The blasting report shall contain the date, time, total explosives, pounds per delay, and systems used for each blast, together with a statement that the blasting complied with all applicable laws and regulations. The annual blasting report shall include a review of blasts that register a PPV greater than .2 inches per second and have a frequency below 20hz. In the event that in any calendar twelve (12) month period more than an average of two (2) blasts per month have a frequency level of less than 20hz for any blasts that exceed .2 inches per second peak particle velocity, Martin Marietta shall submit all information in respect thereto to Vibra-Tech for its review and analysis. As a part of the next succeeding blasting report contemplated by this paragraph 6, Martin Marietta shall submit to the Director the recommendations made by Vibra- Tech in order to modify the blasting practices so as to achieve the goal of frequencies at or above 20hz for blasts that exceed .2 inches per second peak particle velocity. D. Reportable Events. 1. Martin Marietta shall report to the DOCS any blast that exceeds .5 inches per second, or otherwise does not comply with the Bureau of Mines Siskind curve with respect to a combination of frequency and peak particle velocity at any of the monitors required hereunder in subparagraph B.1.(e) above (such blasts are hereafter referred to as "Reportable Events"). The report to DOCS shall contain complete information with respect to such Rep0l1able Events, including blast layout and design, together with all seismic, decibel, weather and other data gathered as part of Martin Marietta's monitoring. Martin Marietta agrees to cooperate with the Director with respect to investigations of complaints about blasting and to provide infoffilation and 4 data as reasonably necessary to investigate such complaints. Additionally, Martin Marietta shall make the agreed consultant available to discuss with the Director the source or reason for such complaints and to make any recommendations to address such complaints. 2. If five (5) or more peak particle velocity Reportable Events occur in any calendar year, within ten (10) days of the fifth event Martin Marietta shall submit all information on such Reportable Events to Vibra- Tech Inc. for its review and analysis. Within twenty (20) days after the later of the date, (i) such data is submitted to Vibra- Tech, or (ii) Vibra- Tech provides a written report in respect thereto, or at such time as is agreed to by DOCS, Martin Marietta and Vibra- Tech shall meet with DOCS to discuss the Reportable Events and any recommendations by Vibra- Tech with respect to blasting patterns or practices to minimize Reportable Events. It shall not be presumed that a change in blasting patterns or practices is necessary merely because of such Reportable Events, but if Vibra- Tech reasonably believes that a change is necessary to prevent frequent Reportable Events, it shall recommend such changes in blasting practices, as it deems necessary. These recommendations shall be discussed at the meeting with DOCS, and Martin Marietta shall be entitled to suggest changes or modifications to the recommendations that would make them less onerous or more acceptable, and Vibra- Tech shall consider Martin Marietta's comments in that regard. Within ten (10) days after the meeting, or as soon thereafter as is practicable, however, Vibra- Tech shall finalize its recommendation and Martin Marietta agrees to implement such commercially reasonable recOlmnendations as expeditiously as is commercially practicable, given the nature of the recommendations. 3. Martin Marietta further agrees to grant Vibra- Tech access to its records upon request by the DOCS for the purpose of Vi bra-Tech auditing them to determine that Martin Marietta is complying with the reporting obligations with respect to Reportable Events contained herein. Any audit report by Vibra- Tech shall report only whether Martin Marietta has complied with its reporting obligations herein and, if it has not, the instances and manner in which it has not complied, including the infoffilation and data required to be submitted by Martin Marietta for any Reportable Event. 4. In January of each year or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practical, Vibra- Tech shall review Martin Marietta's blasting records and blasting programs for the prior year for the purpose of making such recommendations as Vibra-Tech believes may reasonably be necessary to reflect changes in the state of blasting technology that have become commercially practicable. Martin Marietta agrees to consider the recommended changes in good faith, and to implement those that do not unreasonably interfere with its operations and are commercially practicable, but otherwise shall be under no obligation to implement them 5 so long as it has less than three Reportable Events during the previous calendar year. 5. In the event Vibra- Tech is unable to serve in the capacity described hereinabove, Martin Marietta shall propose to DOCS another nationally recognized engineer with experience in mining activities such as those undertaken by Martin Marietta on the Real Estate. Such replacement shall be reasonably acceptable to DOCS. 6. These specific blasting conditions in this Section II are intended to and do constitute all of the commitments made by Martin Marietta with respect to underground blasting and supersede all other provisions of these conditions with respect to underground blasting. III. Studies and Monitoring. If the Director determines that additional study or monitoring of off-site impacts from wlderground mining operations on the Real Estate is necessary, he or she shall notify Martin Marietta of the particular matter needing study. Martin Marietta shall then present the Director with a proposal to address the matter raised by the Director, at Martin Marietta's expense, within forty-five (45) days. If the Director agrees with the proposal, Martin Marietta shall cause the study or monitoring to be performed at its expense in the time frame set forth in the proposal and shall provide a report of the results to the Director. If the Director does not agree with Martin Marietta's proposal, he or she shall modify it or present Martin Marietta with his or her own proposal and Martin Marietta shall pay the cost of such studies. IV. Water Monitoring. Martin Marietta will cooperate with the City Utilities Department (the "Department") in the development of a water quality monitoring program acceptable to the Department to monitor potential impacts from underground mining on the Real Estate. Martin Marietta recognizes that this may require different or additional wells or monitoring protocols than those currently called for and agrees to pay for those that are made necessary by the mining approved herein, as determined in the Department's reasonable judgment. Martin Marietta recognizes that the Department may wish to conduct additional monitoring at its own expense and agrees to cooperate with the Department to permit such additional monitoring. Further, Martin Marietta shall grant the Department access to the monitoring points, flow meters, and related areas at all reasonable times, subject to compliance with MSHA regulations. The Department shall also have access to monitoring locations on an as needed basis for emergency purposes. Additionally, Martin Marietta will notify the Department as to the date of the annual training as prescribed by the Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan dated April 2003 such that a Department representative can attend and/or participate in the training.
