The operator proposes the planned future <br />use of the property to be a private lake recreation area with <br />possible residential development in perimeter areas at a later <br />date. The affected land will be reclaimed by backfilling the <br />perimeter of the pit to slopes of 3 to 1 and by mining and <br />backfilling to create an irregular shoreline . Revegetation of <br />the area with appropriate grasses and trees will create <br />pleasant conditions for the planned use. <br />The lake to be created will be approximately 135.341 <br />acres. It will be approximately 5,000 feet long in an east- <br />west direction and will vary in width north to south from <br />600 feet to 2,100 feet. The shorelines generally will be <br />irregular except on the south perimeter of the pit. The south <br />perimeter will be relieved by irregularities created by mining <br />or by backfilling so as to present a more natural appearance. <br />Perimeter slopes will be maintained at 3 to 1 or less from <br />five feet above to ten feet below the water level of the <br />lake. <br />As outlined in the Mining Plan, the site will be mined in <br />five stages. Each stage will last for one to three years. <br />At the conclusion of each mining stage, a reclamation phase <br />will be commenced. Map Exhibits D-1 and F contain complete <br />details and progression of mining stages and reclamation <br />phases. <br />In salvaging topsoils, reference will be made to the infor- <br />mation outlined in Exhibit I. It is expected that approximately <br />-13- <br />
