Blue Pit <br />112 Permit Amendment <br />Legend <br />-Ana ._ Flow Dlrecdon <br />Figure 2: Post Mining Drainage Map <br />The Rangeland slopes will also receive stormwater runoff protection. This protection consists of <br />Stormwater Catchment Benches and Grouted Channels. The catchment benches will be installed <br />on the slopes when the topsoil is being placed. These benches will run to the grouted channels to <br />remove the stormwater from the slopes and prevent gullying on long lengths of slope by <br />interrupting these slopes with the ditches on the catchment benches. <br />Revegetation Success Criteria <br />Revegetation of all dryland reclamation will be deemed adequate when erosion is controlled and <br />the vegetation is considered satisfactory by the DRMS. Additionally as the mining face progresses, <br />the area that will become visible must have temporary vegetative cover. The lower bench of the <br />reclaimed area (34.63 acres) will be restored to irrigated pasture. The success criteria of this area is <br />usually generally based on go% of the production of alfalfa /grass from the pre -mine fields. <br />Blue Pit May 2014 E -7 <br />
