EXHIBIT D <br />JAMACO PIT <br />RECLAMATION PLAN <br />The current use of the affected land is rangeland and agricultural land; the <br />reclamation plan will return it to this use over time except for that portion of the pit that is <br />utilized for the cultivation of crops. A reclamation plan was obtained from the Natural <br />Resources Conservation Service (see attachments) and will be followed. <br />The sequence of each reclamation phase will be as follows: <br />1. Final grading (all slopes 4:1 or flatter) 1 to 3 days <br />2. Placement of overburden (1 to 2 feet) 1 to 3 days <br />3. Replacement of topsoil (5 to 6 inches) 1 to 2 days <br />4. Discing and fertilizing (as required) 1 day <br />5. Seeding 1 to 2 days <br />6. Mulching and crimping 1 to 2 days. <br />Some reclamation will be done concurrently with the mining operation in order <br />to keep the affected area at five to six (5 to 6) acres. The seeding mixture provided by the <br />N.R.C.S. will only be used on that portion of the pit (0.77 acre) that will be returned to <br />rangeland. <br />The area to be reclaimed will be worked by dozers, front -end loaders or motor <br />graders to achieve the required final slopes. Rippers will be used to break up any <br />compaction caused by the equipment and to seat the topsoil. The topsoil will be placed <br />using the same equipment. The topsoil will then be disced to a depth of four inches to <br />incorporate the fertilizer and prepare the seedbed. The seed will then be drilled. Weed <br />free mulch will be applied at the rate of 2 ton per acre and will be crimped. The seeding <br />will only be done during the season recommended by the N. R. C. S. <br />That portion of the pit currently devoted to crop production (9.14 acres) will be <br />returned to a condition that will allow for crop production to be resumed. The overburden <br />and topsoil will be replaced as above. The final slopes will be as directed by the <br />landowner to best allow for cultivation. The topsoil will be seated as above and then <br />disced to remove any compaction caused by the equipment. The timing on the <br />reclamation on this portion of the pit will be set to coincide with normal planting seasons <br />in Lincoln County. The seeding seasons for the four major crops grown in Lincoln <br />County are as follows: <br />1. Winter wheat is normally seeded in September into October, <br />2. Dry land corn is planted in May once soil temperatures reach a certain <br />minimum, <br />3. Sunflowers are also planted in late May, <br />4. Sorghum crops are usually planted in mid- summer when there is adequate <br />moisture. <br />4 <br />
