RECLAMATION PLAN EXHIBIT D <br /> 1. General Reclamation Plan <br /> The total area of the permit is 19.93 acres. The access road will be left in place at the end of the <br /> mine per the request of the landowner. All other areas will be reclaimed into General <br /> Agriculture. <br /> 2. Haul Roads and Access <br /> The site will utilize existing roads, those roads will remain at completion. <br /> 3. Reclamation Timetable <br /> Reclamation will begin at the completion of the Blue Creek Highway Project. <br /> 4. Revegetation Plan <br /> Post mine reclamation use is General Agriculture. <br /> 5. Post-Reclamation Site Drainage <br /> The site will contain a 100-year 24 hour event. At the completion of the project the site will be <br /> graded per the reclamation plan. For this reason, the outside edge of the perimeter of the site will <br /> have an 18-inch-high berm of approximately 6H:1 V slope left in place to ensure that no <br /> disturbed area runoff leaves the site in the final reclamation stage. <br /> This stormwater containment berm will hold back the water producing a shallow pool. This pool <br /> will quickly dissipate into the pit floor.No drainages enter the site, meaning a diversion ditch <br /> will not be needed. A small area in relation to the total mining area(the northwest portion)will <br /> be allowed to drain into the reclaimed area,but the size of the pit floor will be able to allow <br /> infiltration. Stormwater will sheet flow down the side slopes (3H:IV)across the pit floor and <br /> pool behind the stormwater berm. This berm will be left in place due to its shallow slopes and <br /> minimal height. <br /> 6. Weed Control <br /> Measures will be employed for the control of any noxious weed species. Control measures will <br /> also be used if the growth of weed species on the reclaimed area threatens further spread of the <br /> weeds to nearby areas. A Weed Control Plan will be utilized as follows: <br />
