Lonl; Drvivon DLeclnr Re: Memphis, File No. NI-97-084, Receipt of 110 Construction Materials Reclamation Permit Application Package -Incomplete Dear Mr. Larson: On September 17, 1997, the Division of Minerals and Geology received your the 1 L0 Construction Materials Reclamation Permit Application package for the Memphis, File No. M-97-084. Preliminary review of the information received determined that the following items must be received before the Division can consider your application as being submitted and technical review can begin: 1) EXHIBIT D -Reclamation Plan (Rule 6.3.41: (1) The purpose of the Reclamation Plan is to describe the timing, procedures, criteria and materials that will be used to reclaim the affected land to the proposed future land use. This plan must be correlated to Exhibit E -Map. The description of the Reclamation Plan must be adequate to satisfy the requirements of Section 3.l and demonstrate compliance with Rule 3. At a minimum, the Application shall include the following information: (a) specify at what point in the mining plan and to what depth(s) overburden will be replaced in relation to ongoing extraction. (b) specify the maximum gradient of reclaimed slopes (horizontal:vertical). If the Application proposes slopes steeper than 3:1, you must include a justification that supports steeper slopes for the proposed post-mining land use, and demonstrates compliance with the applicable performance standards of Section 3.1. (c) specify the measures that will be taken to revegetate the site, if applicable, including: (i) The thickness of plant growth medium to be replaced. Sample and analyze available soils sufficiently to establish quantity and yuality; (ii) state at what point in the mining plan the site will be seeded. Explain how the seedbed will be prepared to eliminate compacted conditions (e.g., plowed, chiselled, disced). State tfie type, application rate, and soil incorporation methods of fertilizer application, if any. NOTE: Soil amendments shall only be applied where soil tests indicate nutrient deficiencies for the plant species to be established;
