There are not expected to be <br /> any heavily textured backfill slopes which could have a potential for the instability of soil placed on <br /> them. Soil existing on-site appears to be of adequate quality and quantity to allow for reclamation to <br /> calving ground use. <br /> Soil Spoil and Re-vegetation <br /> As discussed above,soil will be removed from the pit,segregated in stockpiles, and then used for <br /> reclamation. Stockpile areas,whether or not subsequently mined,will be reclaimed and re-vegetated in <br /> the same way as other mined areas. Where soil is left at the time of building the stockpile, because soil <br /> was placed in the stockpile and the area will not be mined for more than 12 months,the areas will be <br /> scarified prior to replacement of soil and seeding. Any spoil will be used as subsoil to establish final <br /> contours and will be covered by top soil for re-vegetation. <br /> Schedule <br /> Backfilling,grading, and placement of soil should be accomplished within one year of extraction of <br /> construction material from a given phase except for temporary and rebuilt roadways. Depending upon <br /> the date of completion of the backfill grading and placement,the land will remain fallow until the <br /> appropriate planting season for the forage selected where re-vegetation is planned. <br /> Reclamation Measures / Materials Handling <br /> Backfilling will be done to provide stabilized slopes around the mining area. The backfill material will <br /> consist of native gravel,overburden,and topsoil. There will not be known toxic or hazardous components <br /> in the backfill material. The mining will not leave high-walls on the property. <br /> Topsoiling <br /> Boring logs taken on-site show little to no topsoil expected to be encountered during stripping. A layer 2- <br /> 4 inches in depth, including the root zone of grasses, will be stripped and stockpiled separately but is <br /> expected to be minimal. By using concurrent reclamation techniques, the topsoil is not expected to <br /> remain in stockpiles for more than 1 to 2 years. If the stockpile remains more than one growing season, <br /> it will be seeded with a fast growing vegetative cover to prevent erosion. All topsoil will be retained on- <br /> site to reclaim slopes and other areas disturbed by mining activities. Weeds will be controlled on top soil <br /> piles using mechanical control and chemical control detailed in weed management plan approved by the <br /> county. <br /> Re-vegetation <br /> Final reclamation will be for use as calving ground, including access roads and water supply. There will <br /> be no intentional seeding with native grasses,forbs,or other plant species unless those are determined <br /> to be desirable for pasture land.
