RECLAMATION PLAN <br />Reclamation of pads and roads will follow when it is decided by MCC that the drill holes <br />aze not performing their intended purpose. <br />1. Upon completion of each phase of activity at a given site, all debris, trash, and <br />drilling related equipment, or de-gas housing will be removed from the site. <br />2. When the mud pit or pits are sufficiently dry, they will be filled with stored <br />sub-soil material and compacted to minimize any settling. <br />3. A backhoe and a bulldozer will redistribute material on and azound the drill <br />pad to achieve as closely as practicable the original contour of the site. The <br />azea will then be ripped or scarified. <br />4. Stored topsoil will be distributed as evenly as possible over the disturbed pad <br />area. <br />5. The entire drill pad area and reclaimed roads will be re-seeded using the <br />USFS/CDMG-agreed seed mix for reclamation purposes on National Forest <br />Service lands (correspondence regarding MCC 2005 Annual Operating Plan <br />dated May 13, 2005 from Levi Broyles, USFS to Mike Peacock, MCC). The <br />seed mix described below is for the mountain shrub habitat type. <br />Species PLS lb/Acre % of Mix <br />Mountain bromegrass 3 14 <br />Prairie junegrass 2 10 <br />Western wheatgrass 4 19 <br />Indian ricegrass 3 14 <br />Sandburg bluegrass 3 14 <br />Bluebunch wheatgrass 3 14 <br />Erigeron speciosus 1 5 <br />Coreopsis lanceolata 1 5 <br />Thermopsis montana 1 5 <br />Total 20 100 <br />This seed mixture will be a minimum of 99 percent pure live seed containing <br />a maximum of 1 percent weeds none of which aze noxious.
