Mature Shrub Transplant Clumps <br />In 2015, no shrub clumps were constructed. One new shrub clump is proposed for <br />construction in 2016. <br />Drainage Reconstruction <br />Refer to Section 3.0 of this annual report. <br />Contour Ditch Construction <br />During 2015, Trapper did not construct any contour ditches. <br />Stock Tank Construction <br />No new Stock Tanks were constructed during the 2015 field season. Refer to Section 6. <br />Stock Tank Reclamation <br />No Stock Tanks were reclaimed during the 2015 field season. Refer to Section 6. <br />Developmental Drill Sites <br />During the 2015 Developmental Drilling season nine holes were drilled within the permit <br />boundary in the L and N pit areas. All applicable developmental drill holes were abandoned <br />per permit section 3.3.2 and will be reclaimed and seeded per section 3.6.3.5 of the permit. <br />Drill hole abandonment typically uses Alternative 2 for sealing of the borehole. <br />Topsoil Piles <br />Topsoil was taken from topsoil pile G2-06 for laydown in Z -A-15. Remaining topsoil from G2- <br />06 was removed in advance of pit stripping and placed in piles K1-15 and K2-15 for laydown <br />in 2016. Refer to Section 5. <br />Sediment Dams <br />Ponds cleaned during 2015 were Johnson #6, Johnson #7, Johnson #8, Johnson #9, Middle <br />Flume #3 and a partial cleanout of Johnson #10. <br />1.2.6 Previously Revegetated Acres <br />The locations and acres for all previously revegetated areas, seeded to perennial species, are <br />presented in Map(s) 1. To date, Trapper has revegetated approximately 4,028.6 acres <br />including the 8.8 acres in 2015 within the boundaries of active mining and has revegetated an <br />additional 516.0 acres within the permit boundary but outside active mining areas or topsoil <br />stripping limits. Of the total revegetated acres 3,242.4 reclaimed acres have received final <br />phase III bond release. Total life of reclamation is 4,544.6 acres. <br />Not shown on Map(s) 1 in this annual report are the areas seeded to temporary perennial <br />mixes that will require final reclamation prior to the end of the project (life of mine). <br />1.2.7 Re -Disturbed Reclamation Acres <br />The parcel identification and acres re -disturbed due to mining activities for all previously <br />revegetated areas will be documented here. Table 1.2 will show acres re -disturbed and <br />summarize the bond release status of each parcel. No previously reclaimed acres were re - <br />disturbed in 2015. <br />FVUBDN/GCR /16 <br />[DRMS\15RECtext1-0] <br />
