Reclamation of the amended mine area will not be in one-acre increments. The earliest <br />area to be reclaimed will be the 9.8 acres in the original pit. <br />- 2. Due to the continuing drought conditions in Kiowa County, reclamation in the original <br />pit will not begin before May 2007 or until adequate moisture is received. Reclamation <br />will be carried out in the original pit according to the information already provided. After <br />the gravel pit has been fully utilized the County will move the top soil into the pit at an <br />average depth of twelve inches. Final grading will be achieved by using a bulldozer and a <br />grader to come up with the finish grade. Top soiling the site will be at an approximate <br />depth of two (2) to six (6) inches. The seed, fertilizer and mulch will be used according to <br />the reference from the USDA NRCS specifications. <br />We are in hopes that the above submitted information will cover all necessary regulations and that a <br />favorable approval will be made on the expansion of the Barnett Pit M-1991-074. <br />Sincerely, <br />Debra A. Immer <br />County Administrator <br />
