Loveland Ready-Mix, Concrete, Inc. 15 September 2021 <br />updated_exhibits_e.docx <br /> <br />7.3.4 Topsoil <br />Topsoil will be removed and stockpiled in berms around the perimeter of the area being <br />mined. The topsoil berms will be out of the way of the active mining operation and will <br />be near the areas where topsoil will be placed during reclamation. The stockpiles that will <br />remain in place for more than 180 days will be seeded to stabilize them and minimize <br />erosion. <br />7.3.5 Revegetation <br />The reclaimed areas will be seeded with a grass mix that will be like and compatible with <br />the grass species in the area. The vegetation will be capable of self-regeneration without <br />continued dependence on irrigation or fertilizer. Any wetland mitigation will involve <br />specific seed mixes of approved wetland sod. These may include bull rush, spike rush, and <br />scripts validus. In addition to seeding, LRM plans to plant trees and shrubs in key locations <br />to block sound, dust and mitigate potential erosion. These planting locations are shown in <br />in Exhibit F. <br />7.3.6 Buildings and Structures <br />Prior to mining, LRM plans to demolish dilapidated fences and structures. LRM will <br />appropriately dispose of the debris and salvage materials of value. No buildings will exist <br />on site after reclamation. <br />7.3.7 Signs and Markers <br />Appropriate signage, indicating that the area is under reclamation, will be posted at the <br />entrance to the mine site. The permit area will be marked by existing fencing with signage. <br />Once reclamation is established, signage will be replaced with appropriate “No <br />Trespassing” signs. <br />7.4 Topsoil Management and Revegetation <br />This section provides the information required by the Rules and Regulations, Sub-section <br />6.4.5(2)(d).
