All <br /> current and future topsoil stockpiles will maintain a vegetative cover to prevent erosion. <br /> (2)No woody vegetation is present within affected areas. <br /> (3) Topsoil stockpiles are in locations and configurations to minimize erosion and <br /> disturbance. <br /> (4) If necessary, relocation of topsoil stockpiles will be submitted for approval by way <br /> of technical revision. <br /> (5) Topsoil will be replaced and graded to mimic pre-mining conditions. No graded <br /> slopes with the potential for slippage zones are planned. <br /> (6) ASCI is following MLRB and DRMS requirements regarding topsoil suitability at <br /> the Site. <br /> (7)Reclamation of the Site to rangeland will utilize fertilizers and/or soils amendments, <br /> as needed. <br /> (8)Vegetative piles will be removed from the Site as part of final reclamation. <br /> 3.1.10 Revegetation 116(4)(f): <br /> (1) All areas will be revegetated for long-lasting coverage that is capable of self- <br /> regeneration using native grasses and forbs. Additional details are provided in Section <br /> 6.4.5 (2)(d) Revegetation Plan. <br /> (2) Reclamation will not include forest planting. <br /> (3) Land will be restored to slopes commensurate for rangeland use and capable for <br /> livestock to traverse. <br /> (4) Revegetation will consist of native grasses and forbs to provide for the greatest <br /> probability of success. Grazing will not occur until revegetation has been established. <br /> (5)ASCI will employ appropriate techniques of site preparation to ensure a diverse and <br /> long-lasting vegetative cover(e.g., discing, crimping, ripping, mowing, mulching, soil <br /> amendments, cover crops, and/or fertilizers). <br /> (6) ASCI will monitor progress of revegetation and implement weed control practices <br /> as appropriate for any areas infested by noxious weed species. <br /> (7) As necessary, temporary dirt access roads and/or fire lanes will be constructed <br /> through areas to be planted for planting crews, supervision, and inspection. <br /> (8) ASCI will implement final reclamation planting after all other uses of the property <br /> are complete. <br />
