Reclamation Timetable <br /> The timing of reclamation is shown below—Table E-2. Exhibit L: Reclamation Costs describes <br /> the worst-case bond scenario. <br /> Table E-2 Reclamation Timetable <br /> Task Description Reclamation Time <br /> 1 Mine out initial pit 5 Years <br /> 2 Mine to the north and west, reclaiming mined 15 Years <br /> out areas as they are completed. <br /> 3 Final backfill,grading,topsoiling,and 3 Years <br /> revegetation <br /> Total 23 Years <br /> 3. Revegetation Plan <br /> For each area of reclamation, soil will be disked to loosen the surface. Due to the mild grade, <br /> seed can be drilled in both regions;broadcast seeding will be utilized where reclaimed perimeter <br /> slopes do not allow drilling. Seed mixes listed below will be used to revegetate the site.. <br /> Certified weed free mulch will be crimped into the surface at 2000 lbs. per acre. Fertilizer may <br /> be added as determined by a soil test at the time of seeding. Heavy furrows will be left in tilled <br /> topsoil to provide moisture concentration and shade areas to promote better conditions for <br /> successful vegetation establishment. Seeding will take place during the fall following <br /> retopsoiling of slopes. Slopes will be regraded, backfilled, and retopsoiled as soon as they are <br /> able to be reclaimed. <br /> DMR „ <br /> April 2018 E-2 <br />
