4.0 — Revegetation Methods - Reclaimed Irrigated Pastureland <br />A significant acreage of the revegetated areas will be returned to a postmining land use of <br />irrigated pasture including lands within the permit area which have not been disturbed, but <br />which have had irrigation water shut -off in order to better control and manage surface and <br />ground water within the mine area during operations. Map 2.05.4 -5 shows all Reclaimed <br />Irrigated Pasturelands as well as all other post -mine land uses. <br />4.1 Topsoil Replacement - General Comments <br />Topsoil replacement operations may be carried out during most of the year, the exception being <br />those periods when wet conditions would preclude handling of the topsoil materials. Prior to <br />replacement of topsoil, the graded spoil will be ripped to reduce compaction. Detailed topsoil <br />handling and replacement plans are provided in Section 2.05.4(2)(d), Topsoil (Redistribution). <br />August 2013 PR -08 2.05.4(2)(e) - 18 <br />
