David King <br /> January 14,2022 <br /> Page 4 of 11 <br /> (b)earthmoving; <br /> (c)all water diversions and impoundments; and <br /> (d)the size of area(s)to be worked at any one time. <br /> (e)An approximate timetable to describe the mining operation. The timetable is for the purpose of establishing <br /> the relationship between mining and reclamation during the different phases of a mining operation. You will not <br /> be required to meet specific dates for initiation, or completion of mining in a phase as may be identified in the <br /> timetable. This does not exempt you from complying with the performance standards of Section 3.1. Such <br /> timetable should include: <br /> (i)an estimate of the periods of time which will be required for the various stages or phases of the <br /> operation; <br /> (ii)a description of the size and location of each area to be worked during each phase; and <br /> (iii)outlining the sequence in which each stage or phase of the operation will be carried out. <br /> (Timetables need not be separate and distinct from the mining plan,but may be incorporated therein.) <br /> (f)A map(in Exhibit C-Pre-Mining and Mining Plan Maps(s)of Affected Lands, Subsection 6.4.3)may be used <br /> along with a narrative to present the following information: <br /> (i)nature,depth and thickness of the ore body or deposit to be mined and the thickness and type of <br /> overburden to be removed (may be marked "CONFIDENTIAL," as per Paragraph 1.3(3)); and <br /> (ii)nature of the stratum immediately beneath the material to be mined in sedimentary deposits. <br /> (g)Identify the primary and secondary commodities to be mined/extracted and describe the intended use; and <br /> (h)name and describe the intended use of all expected incidental products to be mined/extracted by the proposed <br /> operation. <br /> (i) Specify if explosives will be used in conjunction with the mining (or reclamation). In consultation with the <br /> Office,the Applicant must demonstrate pursuant to Rule 6.5(4), Geotechnical Stability Exhibit,that off-site areas <br /> will not be adversely affected by blasting. <br /> (j) Specify the dimensions of any existing or proposed roads that will be used for the mining operation. Describe <br /> any improvements necessary on existing roads and the specifications to be used in the construction of new roads. <br /> New or improved roads must be included as part of the affected lands and permitted acreage.Affected land shall <br /> not include off-site roads which existed prior to the date on which notice was given or permit application was <br /> made to the office and which were constructed for purposes unrelated to the proposed mining operation and which <br /> will not be substantially upgraded to support the mining operation. Describe any associated drainage and runoff <br /> conveyance structures to include sufficient information to evaluate structure sizing. <br /> Adequate as submitted. <br /> EXHIBIT E- Reclamation Plan (Rule 6.4.5): <br /> (1)In preparing the Reclamation Plan,you should be specific in terms of addressing such items as final grading <br /> (including drainage), seeding,fertilizing,revegetation(trees, shrubs, etc.),and topsoiling. You are encouraged to <br /> allow flexibility in your plans by committing to ranges of numbers(e.g., 6"-12" of topsoil)rather than specific <br /> figures. <br />
