Table E-3 Reclamation Timetable <br /> Description Time Required <br /> East Pod mining and reclamation 10 years <br /> West Pod mining and reclamation 30 years <br /> _------------------ <br /> Final site reclamation. 2 years <br /> Total 42 years <br /> 5. Revegetation Plans <br /> All areas will be mulched and seeded for revegetation following grading, topsoiling, and discing <br /> of the soil. The seed mix is shown below. Temporary seeding of stockpiles will use the following <br /> rangeland mix. The following seed mixes will be used for reclamation, unless otherwise defined <br /> by NRCS. <br /> 5.1 . Rangeland Seed Mix <br /> Species Pounds of pure live seed per acre(drilled) <br /> Western wheatgreass 4 <br /> Galleta(floret) _ 4 <br /> Small Burnet 3 <br /> Indian Ricegrass 3 <br /> _Bottlebrush 0.5 <br /> Rabbitbrush 0.5 <br /> Four-winged Saltbush _ 0.5 <br /> Total 15.5 <br /> 6. Post Reclamation Site Drainage <br /> All pods are dry mined as groundwater is not anticipated to be encountered. Surface water <br /> runoff from uphill areas of the pods will be prevented from reaching the site through stormwater <br /> berms or grading. During mining, stormwater that lands within the site will either be completely <br /> contained for evaporation and infiltration or discharged at an approved discharge point. <br /> Reclamation will allow all surface flows to return as they were prior to mining. Refer to map F-1 <br /> for the post reclamation drainage of the site. <br /> 7. Revegetation Success Criteria <br /> Revegetation will be deemed adequate when erosion is controlled, the vegetation cover <br /> matches neighboring areas, and when it is considered satisfactory according to Division <br /> standards. This will be monitored in the two years following the completion of reclamation. <br /> Lockhart Pit <br /> March 2024 E-3 Lewicki& Associates <br />
