� 9 <br /> 6.4.5 EXHIBIT D - Extraction Plan <br /> Unit 3 soils commonly form within floodplains. As a result, differing states of soil formation <br /> may exist within the soil unit desiWnarion: such as soils with little horizon development like <br /> ERAsolp and s tj;�sols. Mo1liSQIs with deep well-developed horizons may exist in the <br /> minority and the near fringe of planned extraction. Refer to graphic above, and bleow. <br /> Enceptiso!

The native A profile of the upland <br /> terrace found within the agricultural Fields at the TRP, is predominantly <br /> modified as a plow (Ap) layer of 6.0± to 8.0± inches. The historic practice of <br /> incorporating manure into the plow layer should have served to maintain the <br /> organic base and quality of the cropped soils and accelerated soil horizon <br /> formation and development where it was lagging. Since the cropped soils <br /> have been irrigated, care should be taken not to salvage soils greater than <br /> 12.0± inches in depth to avoid mixing of potential accumulated salts. <br /> We use Exhibit 1/.1 to expand upon Soil and Vegetation considerations that are also <br /> considered relevant to Exhibit E the Reclamation Plan and correlated as well in <br /> attending supplemental information provided from the U.S. Natural Resources and <br /> 231 Page <br /> Correspondence to the Colorado Office of Mined Land Reclamation—Reply to Rob Zuber,EPS—Adequacy Letters of 24 June and 5 <br /> August 2022; in the matter of the Two Rivers Sand,Gravel and Reservoir Project—M2022-013. <br />
