This shows that the plan can be accomplished with the soil on site, but it does not mean <br />that there will be soil left over. All soil will be used to reclaim according to this plan. <br />4Zone 2A will receive Lift A Topsoil at a depth to be determined by the landowner. The thickness shown in the table above is for <br />calculation purposes to demonstrate an adequate amount of topsoil is available to reclaim Zone 2A. <br />As can be seen from Table 2.05.4(2)(d)-3, there is sufficient topsoil and subsoil volume in the stockpiles <br />to complete the topsoil redistribution plan. Since stockpiled soil had rock fragments removed during <br />stripping, the recovery from stockpiles is treated as 100%. The basic calculation of the topsoil required in <br />a given zone is: <br />Topsoil Needed = <br />Zone Area (ac) * 43,560 fry * Soil Thickness (in) <br />12 U1ft * 27 fi3 3,d3 <br />The size of the stockpiles is determined via detailed surveys conducted on site. All soil thicknesses are <br />designed to the nearest inch, since this is the practical measurement limit for the scale of equipment used <br />at the New Horizon Mine. <br />12.2 North of BB Road/West 2700 Road <br />These lands include all lands north of BB Road and west of 2700 Road except for the 4.76 acres of prime <br />May 2015 (MR -94) 2.05.4(2)(d)-21 <br />
