EXHIBIT E — Reclamation Plan <br /> The final reclamation will be the same as the previous 2004 amendment with the <br /> exception of the area that will be affected by the installation of the french drain <br /> and pipeline. Exhibit E shows a Plan and Profile view of the drain and pipeline. <br /> The drain will be installed along the south edge of the mining boundary and <br /> connect to solid pipe at the southwest corner of the boundary. Water will be <br /> carried in the solid pipe to the drainage ditch on the Henderson Aggregates <br /> property, as shown on Exhibit E. The maximum flow in the pipe is calculated at <br /> 2.5 cfs. See attached output "Open Channel Pipe Flow". We anticipate the actual <br /> flow will be approximately 1.0 cfs. <br /> The elevation of the french drain is shown on Exhibit E. The upgradient (east) end <br /> of the drain is at the elevation of 2010', see profile A'-A.. The down gradient end <br /> (western terminus) of the french drain, located at the southwest corner of Pit 29 <br /> and shown on A'-A, is at the elevation of 2007'. During the flooding in Fall 2014 <br /> we measured the water surface in the pasture at 2011.1'. The low points in the <br /> pasture are approximately 2011". Therefore, we propose to maintain the ground <br /> water level at the western terminus a minimum of 4 feet below the surface <br /> (2077"). This will mimic the historic ground water level. <br /> Once collected in the drain, water will flow north in solid pipe and eventually <br /> discharge into the drainage ditch on the Frei property. <br /> We propose to perform a TV survey once per 5 years. The need and type clean <br /> out will be based on the results of that survey. <br /> To the extent that the French drain is required for the post-reclamation use of <br /> water storage, the French drain and appurtenances will be conveyed to the owner <br /> and operator of that water storage facility so that they can use and maintain it. <br />
