8. Monitoring Reclamation Success <br /> Reclamation success will be determined by both the Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining, <br /> and Safety as part of their permit process, and by the San Miguel County Department of <br /> Environmental Health. Successful reclamation at the Skelton Pit will be achieved when the <br /> rangeland slopes on the south side have sufficient vegetation to prevent erosion and when the <br /> site floor is completely graded and graveled. <br /> In the event that the reclamation has failed in an area of the site (ex: vegetation has died off on <br /> a section of slope), that area will be re-graded, re-topsoiled, re-graveled, or re-seeded as <br /> needed. Since the maximum ongoing disturbance of the site is only 13 acres, it will be in the <br /> operator's best interests to succeed at reclaiming areas that have been mined out as the <br /> operation progresses. <br /> Skelton Pit <br /> January 2022 E-4 ® Lewicki&Associates <br />
