HARD ROCK / METAL MINING <br />LIMITED IMPACT OPERATION (110(2)) <br />RECLAMATION PERMIT APPLICATION <br />For the Ten Percenter Claim (CMC254209) <br />M- <br />BLM CMC254209 <br />USFS File Code 2810 <br />USFS 2810-021210-MPO 2018-004 <br />6.3.4 EXHIBIT D <br />Reclamation Plan <br />Introduction: <br />Excavation at the Ten Percenter will be conducted in as safe and environmentally responsible <br />manner as possible. Reclamation will be an ongoing part of the work. Only one excavation <br />area is planned to be active at any one time, e.g., 4.10 Upper Area, during 2018. Only one <br />trench or equipment -dug excavation will be open at one time, as the disturbance will be re - <br />contoured prior to moving to the next area of excavation. At no time will more than 2 acres of <br />open excavations (topsoil replacement area) be allowed. Trenches and excavations will be <br />recontoured and reclaimed as each trench is completed. The maximum disturbance open at <br />one time within the Affected/Permit Area should not exceed 2.00 acres of topsoil replacement <br />area or 1,000 yards of overburden backfill at any one time, prior to reclamation (surface <br />recontouring, topsoil replacement, raking and replacement of felled trees and boulders moved <br />during operations). <br />In general, if promising pegmatites are encountered in limited cross -cut trenching, the area to <br />be trenched will be worked generally from one lower side, across the planned area by first <br />clearing topsoil and placing it above the area of the cut, then trenching across the slope cutting <br />a small bench. Once sufficient area has been trenched, continued trenching will back fill the <br />original space trenched so that the work will proceed as a cut and fill operation, cutting in front <br />and filling behind. In this way, large dumps will be avoided and reclamation efforts will be <br />reduced as the backfill, though rough, will be already replaced into the trenched area. Final <br />recontouring, raking and seeding will be all that would remain after backfill from this type of <br />excavation. <br />Seeding would occur normally by late autumn so seed has the best chance for growth the <br />following spring. The year after an area has been reseeded and growth has begun, any trees <br />and shrubs planned for the site will then be planted. These sites will be continuously monitored <br />for growth. If necessary, re -seeding will be accomplished until good growth and revegetation <br />has been established and is successful. <br />Reclamation Permit Application for Ten Percenter Claim BLM CMC254209 <br />USFS File Code 2810, USFS MPO-2018-004 <br />
