compensate for deficiencies in this one variable. We h<<ve little <br />doubt that in general our plan allows for this compensation <br />through variations in plant growth medium depth, specie: <br />selection, and microtopographic control. <br />5) 5-E-5 - Please specify where the topsoil stockpiles are <br />located and the treatment of the stockpiles. <br />RESPONSE D5. Topsoil stockpiles are shown on Exhibit C <br />as required by the regulations. As indicated these stockpiles will <br />be moved in the near future. Once moved they will stabilized with <br />the following mixture: <br />Species Broadcast lbs. PLS acre <br />Russian Wildrye 7 <br />Fairway Crested Wheatgrass 3 <br />10 <br />• Of course, this mixture will provide only temporary protective <br />cover until about 1987-1988 when the soil would be permanently placed <br />on the sight reclamation area. <br />6) To what depth (in inches) will the topsoil be replaced <br />on the site? <br />RESPONSE D6. There is very little topsoil whi:h has been <br />saved in the stockpiles. At most there is only about 10),000 cubic <br />feet of soil in these stockpiles. This would cover about 6.5 acres <br />to average 4 inches depth. <br />7) 5-E-6 - If fine material from the processing plait is <br />to be used as a plant growth medium, it must be so state~9 and <br />must be soil tested to determine if it will support vege~:ation. <br />• <br />5-E-14* <br />
