Construction Material Special 111 Operation Reclamation Exhibits <br /> Raindance Reservoir#2—VIMA Partners, LLC <br /> Exhibit D — Reclamation Plan <br /> (a) specify at what point in the mining plan and to what depth(s) overburden will be <br /> replaced in relation to ongoing extraction. <br /> None, this area is intended for a proposed reservoir. <br /> (b) specify the maximum gradient of reclaimed slopes (horizontal:vertica1). If the <br /> Application proposes slopes steeper than 3:1, the Operator/Applicant must include a <br /> justification that supports steeper slopes for the proposed post-mining land use, and <br /> demonstrates compliance with the applicable performance standards of Rule 3.1. <br /> All reclaimed slopes are planned to be 3:1 or flatter for the banks of the proposed <br /> reservoir. <br /> (c) specify the measures that will be taken to revegetate the site, if applicable, including <br /> I. state the thickness of plant growth medium to be replaced. Sample and analyze <br /> available soils sufficiently to establish quantity and quality; <br /> Approximately 4" of plant growth medium will be replaced, and or soils <br /> will be amended as needed to establish proper plant growth. <br /> II. state at what point in the mining plan the site will be seeded. Explain how the <br /> seedbed will be prepared to eliminate compacted conditions (e.g., plowed, <br /> chiseled, disced). State the type, application rate, and soil incorporation <br /> methods of fertilizer application, if any. NOTE: Soil amendments shall only be <br /> applied where soil tests indicate nutrient deficiencies for the plant species to <br /> be established; <br /> The site will be seeded once all excavation has been completed and area <br /> is no longer disturbed by construction activity. Soils will be tilled and <br /> amended to a depth of 6" to establish proper plant growth. <br /> III. state the grass, forb, shrub and tree species to be planted and the applicable <br /> quantities. Specify the quantity of each grass and forb species as pounds of <br /> pure live seed per acre; <br /> Non-irrigated PBSI Native Prairie Seed Mix will be used. Seeding and <br /> mulching will be installed per recommendations of the Mile High Flood <br /> District Criteria Manual. Seed mix is shown on the attached map, and will <br /> be applied at a rate of 10 lb/acre PLS. <br /> TST, INC.CONSULTING ENGINEERS <br />
