<br />Section 2.05.4(2)(d) Page 8 January 2024 (TR-108) <br /> <br />Establishing vegetative cover will aid in overall stabilization and erosion control of stockpiles. <br />Vegetative cover will aid in reducing runoff and raindrop impact and will increase moisture <br />infiltration by maintaining the upper soil surfaces in a friable, non-crusted condition. Organic <br />matter, soil nitrogen, and microorganism activity will be maintained or enhanced by the seeding <br />of deep rooted species or species with fibrous root systems. <br /> <br />The topsoil storage breakdown can be seen in Table 2.05.4(2)(d)-2 below. The topsoil stockpile <br />locations are shown on Map 2.05.4-4. <br /> <br />Table 2.05.4(2)(d)-2 Topsoil Stockpile Inventory1 <br />Topsoil Pile Name Type of Topsoil Volume (CY) <br />C Lift B Topsoil 3,705 <br />D Mixed Topsoil 3,242 <br />H Lift A Topsoil 2,363 <br />5 Mixed Topsoil 150 <br />14 Mixed Topsoil 2,063 <br />15 Mixed Topsoil 119 <br />16 Mixed Topsoil 1,685 <br />Sub Total 13,327 <br />11A Lift A Topsoil (Morgan) 5,550 <br />11B Lift B Topsoil (Morgan) 4,070 <br />Sub Total 9,620 <br />GRAND TOTAL 22,947 <br />1 The topsoil inventory above is a moment in time.

The construction of the Pond 013 led to the disturbance of this area. The <br />disturbance is a mix of Pond 013 itself, the prime farmland soil stockpile footprint, and related <br />disturbance. The prime farmland soils that were removed are now in Stockpile 4 near Pond 013. <br />This stockpile can be seen on Map 2.05.4-4 with the corresponding volume of material provided <br />on Table 2.05.4(2)(d)-2.
