t71.1x -ui 3E1 1-1- I <br />FtECLAMAT I Dhl F''LAhI <br />The primary reclamation plan for the M & G Pit is for the <br />establishment of two stabilized lake shorelines with vegetation, <br />along the banks. The reclamation of the land will take place <br />concurrently with raining operations as phases are completed. The <br />north end of the mining area will be backfilled for the possible <br />development as homesites. An access road will be left between, <br />the two lakes. Cottonwoods that border both sides of this access <br />road will be preserved. <br />Grading <br />Grading will be carried on to create topography sirniliar to pre - <br />mining conditions. The shoreline will be backfilled with <br />overburden and reject material to create a stable surface. The <br />slope of the lake shoreline will be 3h:lv from existing oround <br />level to 10 feet below the water surface. A 2h:iv slope will be <br />formed below 10 feet of the water surface to the bottom of the <br />pit. No highwalls will be left or, the site. (See Figure E-1) <br />Backfilling will occur as each mining phase is completed. The <br />mining timetable is given in Table D-1 of Exhibit D. Grading <br />will be continuous and uniform, performed in a manner to minimize <br />erosion and siltation. The washing pond created in Phase I will <br />not be graded immediately after mining. If it is not completely <br />backfilled from washing of mined material upon completion of <br />mining, it will also be graded to the same slopes as the rest of <br />the pit. <br />No acid forming or toxic producing material are known to exist in <br />the overburden or materials to be mined. Refuse will not be <br />generated on the affected land nor_ wi 11 any .refuse be disposed` n? <br />n mrr <br />mig-p rtsde'SS: ce- systems will be protected 'froii <br />poi:`ltion by p- per grading. <br />No auger or drill holes will be left after mining of the site. <br />No addits or shafts are associated with this operation. <br />Slopes will be graded to be compatible with final land use. No <br />swimming facilities are included in the reclamation plan. None <br />of the reclaimed land will be used for agricultural purposes. <br />E-1 <br />
