EXHIBIT E RECLAMATION PLAN <br /> 1. General Reclamation Plan <br /> Ready Mix Pit will disturb 52.6 acres of the permitted 76.0 acres as part of mining. 40.7 acres <br /> will be the mine pits,while the remainder will be berms, roads, and the detention pond. The <br /> reclamation breakdown of the site is as follows: <br /> Table E-1 Reclaimed Areas <br /> Post Mine Land Use Area (acres) <br /> Revegetated land 19.4 <br /> Lakes 37.1 <br /> Undisturbed 30.1 <br /> Total 86.6 <br /> Reclamation will be pursued contemporaneously with mining. Backfilling to the final contour, as <br /> shown on Map F-1, will take place as mining progresses. The final shape of the reclaimed lakes <br /> will be like that shown on Map F-1. Due to the lack of reliable backfill material, slopes will be <br /> mined to their final configuration. <br /> Final reclamation slopes will be 3H:1V down to five feet below the anticipated water level, and <br /> then 2H:1 V to the bottom. <br /> The post-reclamation land use of the site will be dry rangeland and reclaimed lakes. <br /> 2. Topsoil Replacement <br /> Topsoil will be replaced at a depth of 4-8 inches across all areas. Areas that are more than five <br /> feet below the water line will not be topsoiled. Once topsoil has been placed on an area, it will <br /> disced or harrowed prior to seeding. Topsoiling of the existing area will take place during the <br /> mining of the expansion area. <br /> Ready Mix Pit October 2017 E-1 Greg lewield..r Ammon,tux <br />
