Broadcast seeding will be the method used to seed the site. If drill seeding is used anywhere, the <br /> seed application rate from Table E-3 will be halved. Mulch will be crimped into the revegetated <br /> areas if broadcast seeding is conducted. Fertilizer or other soil additive will be used based on <br /> testing of the processing fines. <br /> 6. Post-Reclamation Site Drainage <br /> Post reclamation site drainage will be similar at any stage of reclamation: an excavated area of <br /> dry rangeland with lakes of various sizes. Runoff within the reclaimed area will drain into the <br /> excavated area and ponds. This will reduce post mine runoff that leaves the site. Lakes outside <br /> the affected area but within the property will be unaffected and unaltered by site drainage <br /> patterns. Lakes that are part of 40 acre/5 cfs water right will not be used for storm water <br /> purposes. <br /> Revegetation according to DRMS and NRCS standards will return the non-lake areas of the site <br /> to the same drainage patterns and capacities as before or better. <br /> Details regarding surface water can be found in Exhibit G. <br /> 7. Revegetation Success Criteria <br /> Revegetation will be deemed adequate when erosion is controlled, and the vegetation cover is <br /> similar to the existing cover, and satisfactory according to Division standards. <br /> 8. Monitoring Reclamation Success <br /> Monitoring the reclamation on an ongoing basis will ensure its success. The Operator plans to <br /> use the local NRCS office to determine the capacity of the reclaimed land to control erosion. If <br /> minor changes or modifications are needed to the seeding and reclamation plan, revision plans <br /> will be submitted to the Division. <br /> Trout Valley Ranch November 2016 E-5 Greg Ltwlrks and Associmm VJAA' <br />
