EXHIBIT E RECLAMATION PLAN <br /> 1. General Reclamation Plan <br /> The total disturbed area to be reclaimed under this permit is 121 acres. Reclamation plans can be <br /> viewed on Map F-1. The post-mining land use will be irrigated pasture on the flats and rangeland <br /> on the slopes. All slopes will be reclaimed to 3H:IV. As described in the mining plan, <br /> reclamation will occur concurrently with mining. Three areas will be in operation at any time: <br /> the active mining area, the mining area being reclaimed, and the facility area in Area 1. <br /> Topsoil and overburden from the current mining area will be used to reclaim mined out areas. <br /> Topsoil will be replaced on all graded areas except those areas that are 10 feet below expected <br /> water level. By doing this, the distance that the topsoil and overburden will have to be <br /> transported as well as the amount of material which will have to be rehandled will be minimized. <br /> Additionally,the acreage which is unreclaimed will be minimized, which will make the worst <br /> case reclamation smaller and thus, the bond will be smaller. <br /> All reclamation slopes will be 3H:1 V or shallower. No more than 500' of highwall will remain <br /> unbackfilled at any time. <br /> An internal road will be left in place for the property owner to access and use the site following <br /> mining. The currently existing access to the property will be left in place for the landowners use <br /> as well. <br /> Base Products Gravel Pit 41 <br /> February 2018 E-1 <br />
