EXHIBIT E RECLAMATION PLAN(CONT) <br /> in the various mining phases will be available for reclamation <br /> needs . <br /> Armoring in Phase 2 (located north of CR 32 . 5) along the <br /> river will progress with sloping so no more than 1000 feet will <br /> need to be completed at any time. The BANK ARMORING PLAN is in <br /> the APPENDIX and explains how and where the armoring will be <br /> placed. There are no plans to install Inlets or Outlets for the <br /> reservoirs . Those will be the responsibility of the reservoir <br /> developers . LGE will be working with the Town of Platteville for <br /> directions on Flood Plain development . This facility is not in <br /> an Urban Area, not near public land, or facilities where public <br /> safety is a concern so, inlet/outlet structures for private <br /> reservoirs are not needed. <br /> When grading and shaping is completed on a large section of <br /> reservoir banks, the areas above the high water line will be <br /> resoiled and then seeded during the next seasonal planting win- <br /> dow. The EXHIBITF-RECLAMATION PLAN MAP shows the sloping plans, the <br /> area to be revegetated and areas that will be reservoirs in this <br /> plan. <br /> All reservoir bank sloping will be completed to the stated <br /> 3 : 1 slopes or flatter. All areas that are above the high water <br /> line, and are not being reclaimed as graveled access roadways, <br /> will have an average of 10-12 inches of soil placed and prepped <br /> for seeding. All top soiled areas will be seeded with the seed <br /> mix described in this plan, and effective weed control measures <br /> will be implemented until the Phase is released from the permit <br /> area. <br /> GENERAL DISCUSSION <br /> There are sufficient amounts of topsoil on the site so the <br /> mined areas can be resoiled to an average depth of 10-12 inches . <br /> Sufficient topsoil will be saved for use in reclamation. The <br /> available topsoil to be salvaged from the stripping process will <br /> preclude having to haul additional soils onto the site for <br /> revegetation. The existing soils on the property have been <br /> capable of producing healthy crops and grasses and are expected <br /> to work well for revegetation of mined areas . <br /> The vegetation information was obtained from site visits and <br /> data provided in the NRCS Web Soil Survey page. A copy of that <br /> report is in EXHIBITIANDJand describes the current soils and vege- <br /> tation on the properties in more detail. <br /> As outlined in the EXHIBITD-MININGPLAN, approximately 388 . 12 <br /> acres ± of the permitted area will be disturbed as a result of <br /> mining activities . Once mine development begins, the plan calls <br /> for the initial bond to have 205 . 00 acres± disturbed at <br /> L.G. EVERIST, INC.-WEST FARMS RESERVOIR November 2022 <br /> 18 <br />
