This will allow for mining of ground on <br /> the southeast end of the operation by second set of mining equipment. <br /> A combination of new total active disturbed area and the completion of reclamation regrading in <br /> the old areas of the site necessitates a new bond calculation. The attached revised Exhibit L <br /> shows this new bond calculation. The additional bond required is $30,908. <br /> The attached revised Map C-2 and Map F-1 shows revised mining and reclamation plans, <br /> respectively. <br /> Additionally, High Mountain Mining is revising the permit to allow the planting of legumes, <br /> forbs, and grasses beyond the approved seed mix that are <br /> 1. Native species <br /> 2. Appropriate for the land use and altitude <br /> 3. Not on state or local weed lists <br /> This change is to allow the Alma Placer Mine more flexibility in revegetating pre-law areas of <br /> the mine where topsoil was not salvaged. High Mountain Mining will continue to work with the <br /> local NRCS office to ensure effective revegetation is completed onsite. <br /> Alma Placer TR 1 X;11*1.txerW—Asseaiaee 11 <br /> ,1i <br />
