PMD-5 Dump <br /> Explosives are stored in this area, and since blasting is required to create some of the slopes and <br /> benches for final reclamation,this area will not go into final reclamation until all blasting has been <br /> completed. <br /> The top of the dump is a level pad, and the north and west sides of this affected area have been sloped. <br /> The slopes contain good vegetation, and no further reclamation work is required there. <br /> The top of the dump requires only minor grading and removal of the magazines, for it to be ready for <br /> final reclamation. Material on pad surface is considered adequate growth medium. <br /> Finish grading and seedbed prep: D8 or equiv.,w/ripper, 2 hrs @ $100.00/hr. <br /> Seeding: 1.0 ac @ $1,000/ac. <br /> MQND-3 (North Dump) <br /> This area has not been disturbed in twenty years, and no future mining disturbances are planned. Since <br /> final reclamation is well established in this area (erosion is controlled and revegetation is good)we feel <br /> no further work is needed. <br /> MQED-4(East Dump) <br /> All extraction and stockpile removal from this area is completed. The south face still needs to be sloped. <br /> The permanent road along the south edge will continue to be used throughout the reclamation stage. <br /> Slope reduction: D8 or equiv., 1,400 CY @ $1.00/CY. <br /> Finish grading: D8,4 hrs @$100.00/hr. <br /> Seedbed prep: D8 w/ripper, 3 hrs @ $100.00/hr. <br /> Seeding:4.0 ac @ $1,000/ac. <br /> Area A <br /> This area has not been disturbed in many years and is fully reclaimed. No further work needed. <br /> Road 383E <br /> This is a permanent road. It will continue to be maintained during mining and throughout all <br /> reclamation phases, and will be left in a condition suitable for future use. <br /> No specific or additional reclamation is considered to be needed. <br /> Revegetation Seedmix <br /> Species Variety #PLS/ac <br /> Sideoats grama Vaughn or El Reno 2.25 <br /> Indian ricegrass Paloma or Nezpar 2.50 <br /> Cicer milkvetch 0.65 <br /> Fairway crested wheatgrass Ephraim 1.50 <br /> Pubescent wheatgrass Luna 3.50 <br /> TOTAL#PLS/ac: 10.40 <br /> This seedmix is recommended by the NRCS.
