(FORM 2 - Public filing) <br />Describe the estimated topsoil depth and how topsoil will be salvaged, stockpiled and redistributed for the re-establishment of <br />vegetation. Specify approximate topsoil redistribution depth: <br />Topsoil thickness is thin to non-existent in the area. Rocky, C horizon soils are generally <br />encountered within 6-12" of the ground surface. In any areas with significant topsoil <br />eve opm n, Ine topsoilwill pi y at tile top -of the dFill site c a. <br />9.
