FRGh9 :.°~ <br />r <br />FAX N0. 17198464975 Mar. 02 20@6 11:50RM PS <br />Basin will not use any pesticides or herbicides without <br />approval from the Division. <br />Prior to seeding and after topsoiling, Basin will conduct a <br />soil testing plan evaluating the major soil nutrients of nitxogen, <br />potassium, and phosphorus. Results will be forwarded to the Division. <br />Fertilization application will be based on this testing program. <br />All acid forming and/or toxic materials shall be disposed of <br />in accordance with Section 4.11.4 and Section 4.14.3. <br />All roads not approved to support post mining land use <br />including light use, access and haul roads will be reclaimed. <br />Reclamation of these roads will proceed when access is no longer <br />needed for maintenance of reclaimed areas. Road base will be <br />removed and placed over refuse. The roads will be ripped to a <br />depth of 18 inches and scarified prior to final seedbed <br />preparation. Fill and cut slopes will be graded to blend with <br />the post-mining topography. Water bars will be installed as <br />necessary to prevent excessive erosion. <br />On August l5, 1985 WFC submitted a rill and gully plan to <br />the Division. This plan was revised in December 1986. Exhibit <br />29, Rill and Gully Plan, is a copy of this plan. Basin will <br />follow the rill and qulley maintenance requirements as outlined <br />in this plan. <br />As previously discussed, revegetation success criteria <br />will be judged according to Sections 4.15.8 and 4.15.10 of the <br />regulations. Basin's postmining land uses will include <br />rangeland, upland and riparian wildlife habitats. Success of the <br />rangeland in the East Portal area will be compared to the Golden <br />Eagle Grassland Reference Area. Success of upland wildlife <br />habitat will be compared to the upland reference area. Success <br />of the riparian wildlife habitat will be compared to the <br />riparian reference area. The locations of these reference areas <br />are shown on Map 10, Vegetati.oa.
