Section - 2.05.4 <br />fences, etc.) until effective drainage can be reestablished. Anp berms constructed to contain small <br />drainage areas will be revegetated and left in place. .The vegetative cover will help to stabilize the <br />berms and over time the area on the uphill side of the berms will silt in completing the reclamation <br />process. Regrading operations will be limited to existing disturbance areas and those immediately <br />adjacent undisturbed areas necessary to provide for effective blending of regraded surfaces with the <br />surrounding terrain. Fugitive dust emissions will be controlled during reclamation by' periodic <br />watering of roads and active reclamation azeas. <br />• <br />Soil materials will be sampled following replacement to verify suitability and will be stabilized by <br />leaving the surface of the replaced soilin a roughened .condition to minimize surface runoff and <br />erosion and promote moisture infiltration and through. application of straw or native hay mulch <br />following seeding. <br />' TABLE 2.05.4-Tb - - ~ .. <br />SURFACE DISTURBANCE SUMMARY _ <br />Area Disturbance Reference <br /> lacres) Drawin <br />Elk Creek Coal Handling, Support, and Ancillary 39.0_ Map 2.05-M1, General Facilities <br />Facilities ~ Exhibit 2:05-Et, Facilty Designs <br />Sanborn Creek Mine Surface Facilities 4.1 Map 2.05-M1, General Facilities <br /> Exhibit 2.05-Et, Facility Desi ns <br />West Valley Coal Aefuse Facility and Hau!
