6.4.5 Exhibit E <br /> Reclamation Plan <br /> Reclamation to rangeland will occur following mining at the site. As topsoil and waste <br /> rock and overburden are removed from the working face,they will be stockpiled for future <br /> reclamation use. Throughout mining, slopes will be maintained at a 3H:1V minimum. Waste <br /> rock and overburden will be placed on the pit floor as quantity allows. Four to six inches of <br /> topsoil will be replaced on affected surfaces. If necessary, surfaces will be roughened prior to <br /> seeding. <br /> All Rite Paving and Redi Mix will use the below. The seed will be drilled at X"to %" in <br /> depth and straw mulch will be crimped in. <br /> Table 1: NRCS Recommended Seed Mix <br /> Spode* PIS Acre <br /> Blue grama 0.6 <br /> Sidwats orama 2.3 <br /> Western wheatgress 3.2 <br /> Sand dropseed 0.2 <br /> Yellow sweetdover 10.4 <br /> All mining structures, including interior haul roads and stormwater diversion structures, <br /> will be reclaimed following all mining operations.
