<br />EXHIBIT E <br />The reclamation plan calls for the Flatiron Pi[ to be an open reservoir and the Reichert Pit <br />to be reclaimed as lowland wildlife habitat and open space. As private land, no public <br />recreation use is currently being planned. <br />No conflict between reclamation plans and adjacent land uses is expected. <br />Section 3 -Comparison with Applicable DMG Requirements <br />Materials Handline <br />The reclamation area will be graded as shown in Exhibit F-Reclamation Plan Map. <br />Substantial grading will be limited to the immediate vicinity of the Reichert and Flatiron <br />pits, respectively. All subsoils, topsoils and overburden will be native materials and will <br />be used in the reclamation grading to provide slope material and growth medium. At no <br />location will the slope be steeper than 3: 1. <br />There are no known toxic materials in the proposed fill material. <br />Grading will be done with scrapers, dozers, sheepsfoot compactors, and blades as needed. <br />The final contours will be smoothly transitioned to minimize erosion, and compacted to <br />minimize the hazard of unstable slopes. <br />Final grading, planting and seeding will commence in a timely manner to minimize soil <br />erosion. <br />No swimming area is planned for the reclaimed reservoir. <br />Water <br />Measures taken to minimize disturbance to the prevailing hydrologic balance of affected <br />land, for quantity and quality, will include: <br />a) Compliance with all applicable Colorado water laws. <br />b) Compliance with all applicable federal and Colorado water quality laws and <br />regulations. <br />c) Compliance with all applicable federal and Colorado dredge and fill requirements <br />(Army Corps of Engineers clearance pending). <br />d) Removal and backfill of any sediment or siltation structures created for use in <br />conjunction with mining activities associated with this permit application. <br />Spoil piles (including topsoil, subsoil and overburden) remaining undisturbed longer than <br />one growing season will be seeded with fast-growing mix to minimize erosion. <br />
