Sufficient <br /> land for maintenance of a power line which crosses the prop- <br />' erty and for grading slopes around the pits to a 2:1 slope <br />' <br /> will not be excavated. <br /> Topsoil to a depth of 10-12 inches will be stripped <br /> from the surface and stored in a corner of the property as <br /> future excavation for gravel progresses. When there is <br /> sufficient area in the bottom of the pit so that backfilling <br /> d <br />i <br />i <br />i <br /> grad <br />ng w <br />an <br />ll not <br />nterfere with future mining, over- <br />' burden will be backfilled to the extent possible and slopes <br /> graded to 2:1. Approximately 6 inches of topsoil will be <br /> spread on the graded slopes after adequate compaction to <br /> assure stabilization against slippage and piping. <br />' R <br />ti <br />f <br />t <br />i <br />d <br />ill <br />id <br />f <br />ll <br />h <br /> evege <br />a <br />on o <br />m <br />ne <br />ow- <br />areas w <br />cons <br />er t <br />e <br />o <br />, ing principal factors and possibilities. <br /> (1) No standing water in pit is anticipated. <br /> (2) Greater water availability for vegetation on <br /> the floor of the reclaimed pit is expected. <br />' (3) Some native plant species are desirable, and <br /> <br />' E 1 <br /> <br />
