11. Evaluation of Soils for Reclamation Potential <br />The soils and parent materials on the study area were rated for stietabifttygRalit based on criteria <br />presented in Table 2.04.9 -2, Criteria for Evaluating Soil Suitabf+ityQuality. These suitability criteria <br />were approved by DRMS in the Permit Amendment for the expansion west of 2700 Road. <br />Recommended topsoil salvage depths were generated for each sampled pedon and each <br />component of a mapping unit. Salvage depths were determined following a detailed evaluation of <br />pH, electrical conductivity, saturation percent, soil texture, Sodium Adsorption Ratio, calcium <br />carbonate percent, and coarse fragment percent. <br />The recommended topsoil salvage depth for each map unit is based on average of all depth <br />samples taken for the map unit. <br />August 2013 (PR 08) 2.04.9 -23 <br />
