b (FORM 2 -Public filing) <br /> 8. Describe the estimated topsoil depth and how topsoil will be salvaged,stockpiled and redistributed for the re-establishment of <br /> vegetation. Specifv approximate topsoil redistribution depth: <br /> Topsoil varies from 0.5 feet to 2 feet depending on location. Hilltops have less, and valley bottoms have <br /> more. Any top soil encountered urmg surface disturbing exploration activities will be remove an <br /> segregated inia- -2 R-a-il sloGkpile Pear tho edge of the d-isti-irbed area. AAY bodrock materials Incated <br /> below, will then be moved separately. Upon completion of the exploration of the site,the bedrock <br /> materials will be replaced and any previously stockpiled soils will be used as cover. The areas will then <br /> be fevegetateel aS SeeM aS PMetleal (less than 5 yeafs),with the ffe!effed tifne e!Seeding being in fall eF <br /> spring to take advantage of seasonal moisture and natural cycles to establish vegetation. <br /> 9. Describe how drill holes will be plugged(refer to Rule 5.4 of the Rules for required abandonment procedures): <br /> Since no holes are anticipated to encounter groundwater, all drill holes will be securely <br /> capped, in accordance with Rule 5.2.4 (5) ("securely capped as approved by this office") <br /> and a report shall e filed with e office as required under Rule 5.7. <br /> 10. Describe how portals,adits,shafts,ponds,excavations,or other disturbances will be reclaimed(refer to Rule 3 and Rule 5 for <br /> specific reclamation performance standards). You may wish to contact the Division for closure specifications. <br /> No portals, shafts, ponds, or significant excavations are anticipated. If found to be <br /> necessary, any drill pads that might be constructed on non-previously disturbed land will <br /> originalbe returned to approximately the I <br /> Snil CnnsPryation SPfyIRP. nr Pnnineer if arininal mix is founri to not hP availahlP_ Any murl <br /> pits, if used, will be closed by pumping the cuttings and drill fluid into the drill hole, and <br /> covered as part of the reclamation of the drill pad area. Any other new disturbances will be <br /> treatedin a manner similarI pads. <br /> 11. Describe how roads will be reclaimed or returned to their pre-prospecting(or better)condition: <br /> Existing roads and previnus- dis-turbances are not part W !he affected aGreage, so I.Afill be <br /> left in approximately their previous condition prior to exploration. Any roads that might be <br /> constructed in newly disturbed areas will be reclaimed, topsoil replaced, and seeded with <br /> an appropriate grass mix when no longer needed. s has been discussed above, only very <br />
