RECLAMATION PLAN <br /> (The following paragraphs have been deleted because they primarily revolve around the original <br /> option of constructing a new reservoir in this area. Those plans have now been abandoned. <br /> Therefore, these discussions are no longer relevant. However, the issue of blending this site <br /> through the Fountain Mutual Ditch corridor is still relevant and will be discussed in a later <br /> section pertaining to blending this area with the rest of the pit) <br /> be removed,but only if no reservoir is constructed in the Little johnson area. Thus, <br /> "temporary" slope must be reclaimed as though it is the final slope. This is necesswy <br /> becattse th%., constractioll of a reservoir in the Little johnson area is the niost limiting final land <br /> use, that is, the use that require., tifis material be preserit. All other uses etivisimied fbr this area <br /> would probably not require this niaterial to be in place and would allow renioval of the sand <br /> under the ditch after the ditch is relocated. <br /> fn effect, at the end of the Little johnson nfitihig it is safe to assume that tfie Fountah <br /> Nfuttrai Ditch will still be in its current iocatimi and a decision as to the creation of a reservoir <br /> will!iot have been niade. Until the ditch is nioved this material must remain in place, irrespective <br /> of whethe . is created or not,because the ditch route flows across the top of thiss <br /> material. But the ditch also extend., ffirther to the west betweeti Phase 5e mid the phases to the <br /> sonth of ffie ditch. Fmther!Tiore, the c=retit plan witicipates the ditch being relocated at soziie <br /> point and the sand mider the ditch corridor renioved. Theref6re, to accormnodate the ditch, <br /> material on the south side of the ditch corridor innst re!Tiain mitil the ditch is moved. None of the <br /> material under flie ditch can be reriioved tnitil such time as the ditch is moved to a diff-ere <br /> location. This is already provided fbr in the existitig pernfit7. <br /> Btrt in the Eittle Johns=area an additional consideratimi ninst be taken into accouft <br /> Little joinison area may eventually be returned to a reservoir. This is an expressed desire of th%-.1 <br /> landovviier of the Little Ifoinmoti area. Therefbre, the!naterial on the south side of the currmit <br /> ditch corridor(north side of the Little johnson area)iiinst remain hi place, wheffier the ditch i0s <br /> moved or tiot, until such time as it is decided whether the reservoir will be if the ditch is relocated and the adjacent Phase 5 e is mined, this "temporary2' siope W <br /> ff the reservoir is created then tfie fitial configuration of the Daniels Sand Pit slopes <br /> return to a pattern highl sinfilar to the curreirtly pennitted pattem. But, if t1ble reservoir is riot, <br /> created, ffien the final configmation,of the Bwfiels Sand Pit will be according to flie contours <br /> shown on the maps in Exhibit F of this amendment. In that case, the inaterial under tile curreTit <br /> ditch location will be rernoved and a.more getitic transition frorn the east end of Phase 4e to tile <br /> east end of Phase 5e will occ=. <br /> Until the ditch is moved .011d a decision regardhig the reservoir is made, the recimiiatioil <br /> of the south side of the ditch cot ridor in the Little johnson area only must be considere <br /> Daniels Sand Pit Amendment (2008) Exhibit E Page 6 of 22 <br />
