Finally, no described critical periods or species of concern are known by <br /> Applicant/Operator/Landowner. <br /> (2) Creation of wildlife habitat and management: <br /> The reclamation plan anticipates returning the site to rangeland. However, returning the <br /> site to rangeland will continue to make the site available for wildlife use, as it has in the <br /> past. Wildlife is opportunistic and will use what is available for food and cover. <br /> In addition, a wildlife statement will be sent to the Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife <br /> for comment. <br /> 3.1.9 Topsoil salvage, storage, and replacement: <br /> (1) Protection of topsoil: <br /> Topsoil necessary for site reclamation will be removed and placed in stockpiles. Topsoil <br /> stockpiles will be out of drainageways, and away from active mining areas. As stated <br /> above, where topsoil stockpiles will not be disturbed for at least 180 days, the topsoil <br /> stockpiles will be seeded with the approved topsoil pile seed mix. <br /> (2) Wood vegetation shall be removed: <br /> The site is a grassland/sagebrush community, with little or no woody vegetation. <br /> (3) Storage, location, configuration of topsoil stockpiles for control of erosion <br /> and protection from mining operations: <br /> Control of topsoil stockpiles from erosion and protection from mining operations are <br /> addressed in Section 3.1.9(1). The Pre-mine/Mine Plan Map shows the location of topsoil <br /> stockpiles, away from drainageways and separated to the extent possible from mining <br /> operations. <br /> We estimate the topsoil piles, to be located in the current mining area(please see the Pre- <br /> mine/Mine Plan Map for locations), will contain approximately 24,200 cubic yards of <br /> topsoil. This amount should be adequate for site reclamation in order to replace 6-8 inches <br /> of topsoil. If additional topsoil stockpiles become necessary,we will submit a Technical <br /> Revision for approval prior to topsoil stockpile construction. <br /> 27 <br />
