EXHIBIT D RECLAMATION PLAN <br /> 1. General Reclamation Plan <br /> The maximum disturbed area to be reclaimed under this permit is 2.5 acres out of the 9.4-acre <br /> permit area. Reclamation plans can be viewed on Map E-3. Post-mining land use will return the <br /> entire disturbed site back to dry rangeland with native grasses on all slopes and is consistent with <br /> existing land use in the area. Areas designated as gravel storage areas by the landowner will <br /> remain as such and will not be reclaimed. All slopes will be reclaimed to 3H:1 V or shallower. <br /> As described in the mining plan, reclamation will occur concurrently with mining. <br /> 2. Topsoil and Overburden Replacement <br /> Overburden throughout the site is variably thick and recovered overburden from each new <br /> mining area will be used to backfill, as needed, the previous mining area. Topsoil on site is <br /> anticipated to range from 0-4 inches thick. During mining, all excess topsoil and overburden will <br /> be stored in stockpiles in the northwest extent of the site as shown on Map E-2. Topsoil will be <br /> replaced over each mined area after the next mining area is stripped of its topsoil and <br /> overburden. Topsoil thickness upon replacement is expected to be 2 inches thick,the pre-mine <br /> average depth for the site. <br /> 3. Haul Roads and Access <br /> One access road will connect the site to State Highway 141. County R 13 Road will be used to <br /> access the water pump. Onsite haul roads will be flexible as mining moves throughout the site. <br /> See the enclosed affidavit, following Exhibit C, signed by the landowner ensuring onsite mining <br /> roads will remain on the site after mining. See Map E-3 for the layout of roads after mining and <br /> reclamation. <br /> 4. Reclamation Timetable <br /> Reclamation earthworks will occur as mining progresses throughout the site. Reclamation <br /> seeding will occur after each previously mined phase is retopsoiled. <br /> Bancroft Placer Mine GrV 1.vndu a"Auensta4 YIAA <br /> July 2020 D-1 <br />
