<br />EXHIBIT E <br />RECLAMATION PLAN <br /> <br />The mining oP this area, with the proximity of the rig <br />produce a lake of approximately 26.0 acres. All areas <br />disturbance above the water line of the remanent lake <br />topsoiled and planted to return those areas to agricu: <br />(grazing) use which is compatible with the existing ci <br />this and adjacent lands. Reclamation will encompass t <br />within the permit area. <br />er, will <br />of <br />will be <br />tural <br />rrent use of <br />11 roads <br />Reclamation will commence in the permit area as soon a mining has <br />progressed to the point that continuing operations wo ld not <br />disturb the reclaimed areas either from vehicular tra fic or water <br />action produced by the mining activity. <br />Two types of areas above the water line oP the remaining incised <br />lake will required reclamation. Those are mining a.re which will <br />he backfilled with the minus 1/4 inch material and aff cted areas <br />outside the mining area. Both types will be reclaimed in the <br />same manner. They will Pirat be graded, amoothed,and carified or <br />otherwise have compacted areas loosened. Topsoil will then be <br />spread over the areas to a minimum depth oP 12 inches. Prepared <br />areas will be mulched and planted in late Pall ae reco mended by <br />the Soil Conservation Service. (See Exhibit 12). <br />Topsoil handling will be kept to a minimum to minimize losses. <br />All elope areas will be roughed up prior to placement f topsoil <br />to eliminate potential slippage planes. <br />lao~ Ooo <br />Anticipated topsoil available from the disturbance are is 2'3fr;6~60 <br />c.y. This will result in a topsoil depth of-¢~plue Pe t oP soil <br />available Por the 33.8 acres to be topsoiled. IP a sh rtage of <br />topsoil should occur, the Pines from screening operati n would <br />supplement Por some oP the topsoil. The majority of t peoil will <br />be plat d i areas oP sections 4, 5 and 32 where depth will vary <br />from,-~o ~~Peet. The areas in section 33 will averag ~-'lfeet in <br />depth. <br />The proposed seed mix and planting rates table followi g this page <br />will be used. This mix was proposed by the SCS. Seed ng will be <br />done using s seed drill and will occur in late fall to take <br />advantage of the winter moisture for germination. Liv stock <br />grazing on reclaimed areas will not be permitted until the <br />vegetation ie well established. <br />Care will be taken during all phases of reclamation to keep all <br />slopes at or less than 3 Pt horizontal to 1 ft vertica . <br />
