TR-34 to Permit M-1977-342 <br /> Environmental Protection Plan <br /> 17. PLANT GROWTH MEDIA AND REVEGETATION <br /> The Henderson Mine and Mill site closure and reclamation plan are detailed in Section 9.0 of the <br /> Reclamation Permit. The Reclamation Permit has been modified as site conditions warrant and <br /> reclamation technology advances. Generally, revegetation plays an important role in this <br /> approved plan. While topsoil material (growth media) is not widely available to cover the Mine <br /> site, it will be available to cover the TSF at the Mill site. Detailed soils information and maps are <br /> found in Section 6.2 of the Reclamation Permit as modified. <br /> In addition, significant research relative to soils and revegetation has been conducted at <br /> Henderson since the mid-1970s (Section 8.0 of the Reclamation Permit). Much of this research, <br /> including soil/vegetation test plots, is revisited periodically to determine long-term trends. <br /> Recommendations on soil and revegetation material from the local Natural Resources <br /> Conservation Service (NRCS) have been taken in to account as modifications to the Reclamation <br /> Permit were compiled and reviewed. <br /> Climax Molybdenum Company August,2021 <br /> Henderson Operations Page 42 of 45 <br />
