• EXHIBIT E Reclamation Plao The beneficial end use is designated as a water storage reservoir. [n the final reclamation state, the land will be reclaimed in the following categories: Lake 40.0 acres Shoreline 6.6 acres Undisturbed ground 19.1 acres Backfilled Area/Wetlands 13.2 acres Total 78.9 acres Slopes along the shoreline of the Phase II area will be 3H:1 V. As the mining progresses through a certain length of shoreline, the overburden and topsoil will be replaced on the Lakeshore abo e / ~~ the projected waterline. ~e.,,,,,,,....~.~o~,~ Phase I will be backfilled with fines, umnarketable material and excess overburden from the n n ~ mining operations. This area may also be used to create replacement wetlands. ~,w.,~.~-~~ b~ n^°-`~" ` A service road surrounding the perimeter of the reservoir will remain for access following the final reclamation of [he site. The operator will comply with Rule 3.1 according to [he following measures: In this area of Adams County, mining and water storage are a predominant use along the South Platte River, thus the post mining use proposed here is compatible. Reclamation Measures/Mnteria(s Handling The mining will create the rough topography for the Lakeshore. See detail on Exhibit F for proposed Lakeshore configuration. Bedrock and overburden will be placed on the shoreline for final grading. Compaction of the bedrock will occur with scrapers and dozers. There are no structures proposed here so no greater compaction is required. Final grading will be done along the contours and revegetation will occur as soon as possible to prevent erosion. Lakeshores will be graded and seeded within one to two years after the mining occurs. The mining will leave no highwalls on the property. No acid forming or toxic materials are used or encountered in the mining. There will be no auger holes, adits, or shafts left on the property. Tlie operator will utilize concurrent reclamation in this operation. Water -General Reyurrement Disturbance of the area will be done to minimize the effect on the prevailing hydrologic balance as follows: TmmGe Pi! DAfG I12 Pernii! Pn¢e 7 of 46
