2.05.4 Reclamation Plan <br />(2)(b) A detailed estimate of the cost of reclamation of the proposed mine and mine <br />facilities are presented in Section 3.05 Performance Bond Requirements. <br />(2)(c) An excess of approximately 15,000 CY of material will be generated from <br />construction of the rail spur and will be stockpiled in the Coverfill pile as <br />shown on Map -16. Ballast, subballast and/or rip rap for the rail will be <br />obtained from United Companies 15 Road gravel pit, or, another DRMS <br />approved gravel pit located in the general project vicinity. <br />The reclamation plan is to restore the affected lands to approximate original <br />contours. To reclaim the areas to approximate original contour, ballast and <br />sub -ballast will be salvaged, coverfill material will be replaced and the site will <br />be graded to approximate original contours. Topsoil will be placed on the <br />regraded area and then the area will be seeded with the approved seed mix. <br />Light use road #2 will be used extensively for the reclamation of the areas <br />west of Reed Wash. Demolition and reclamation equipment will be <br />mobilized. Bridge beams and piling will be removed from the site using this <br />light use road. After the west side of the bridge is razed, and the area west <br />of Reed Wash is restored to approximate original contour, topsoil will be <br />replaced and seeding and mulching will be performed. Light use road #2 will <br />be the last area reclaimed west of Reed Wash. Gravel will be salvaged from <br />the light use road, topsoil will be replaced and the area will be seeded with <br />the approved seed mix and mulch will be applied. Alternative sediment <br />control will be used to treat the run-off from the reclaimed areas west of <br />Reed Wash. <br />Haul road #1 will be used extensively for the reclamation of the areas east of <br />Reed Wash. Demolition and reclamation equipment will be mobilized. <br />Bridge beams, piling, conveyors and other structures will be removed from <br />the site using this haul road. After all structures and conveyors are removed <br />from the site and the area east of Reed Wash is restored to approximate <br />original contour, topsoil will be replaced and seeding and mulching will be <br />performed. Restoration of the site to approximate original contours will <br />concurrently reclaim haul road #2 and light use road #1. Haul road #1 will <br />be the last area reclaimed east of Reed Wash if it is reclaimed. See haul <br />road reclamation in section 2.05.3 Since most of the area east of Reed <br />Wash is an industrial area, only 6.0 acres located near Reed Wash will be <br />Permit Application 2.05-30- 08/26/11 <br />
