Mr. Gordon Brewer stated the purpose is to develop a regional material site providing gravel for industry need while reducing the number of material sources opening and closing to meet individual project needs.

The project site is located within Sections 31 & 36, T. 10 N., R. 14 & 15 E., Umiat Meridian; USGS Quad Map Beechey Point A-3; Latitude 70.18305º N., Longitude 148.44805º W.; near Prudhoe Bay, Alaska.

The applicant is proposing the development of a new gravel mine site (to be called Mine Site 3) within the Prudhoe Bay area, the current proposal would impact a total of 54.44 acres of Palustrine emergent wetlands, although future plans may be proposed to expand the mine and could increase impacts up to a total of 299.7 acres of wetlands.
