1 - Scarification - The single lift topsoil will be scarified (ripped) to its placement depth using a motor grader <br />with rippers which will operate perpendicular to the slope, creating rough surfaces to trap moisture and <br />prevent soil erosion along this slope. An example of an area where this would be employed is the north <br />edge of the Benson West, the Lloyd and the WFC property, where there is a significant steeper slope in <br />these areas. <br />13.4 Differential Settling Management Plan <br />In the event that small depressions develop in the irrigated areas west of 2700 Road due to differential <br />settling, topsoil will be stripped from the area of the depression, and a layer of Bench 1 material will be <br />placed underneath the topsoil. The topsoil will then be replaced and the area reseeded. Some Bench 1 <br />material will be kept in a stockpile (1000 CY) for this purpose. This Bench 1 stockpile will be located on <br />WFC owned or controlled property in the area west of 2700 Road. <br />Repair of small depressions will only take place on IP outside of the growing season of April to September. <br />Repairs will not take place if it is determined that the soil is saturated or frozen. In general, small <br />depression repairs will be conducted using the same procedures outlined for topsoil redistribution. <br />If excess topsoil material is available to directly backfill the depression without stripping the topsoil from <br />said depression, this will be done instead of the Bench 1 placement method described above. <br />On the Morgan Property, if depressions develop that require the stripping of soil to facilitate Bench 1 <br />placement, then topsoil and subsoil lifts will be stripped and stored separately. At all times subsoil and <br />topsoil will be stored separate. The same process will be used if excavation is necessary for the installation <br />or maintenance of any buried irrigation or utility lines on the Morgan Property. <br />August 2013 (PR -08) 2.05.4(2)(d)-28 <br />
