<br />1 <br />1 <br />In the Lowland area the reclamation sequence will be as follows: <br /> 1. Per•lodically clean out the wash ponds next to the Lowland <br />' processing sites and spread this material in the Creek. <br /> bottom, <br /> c. Move r^e~ect material d~~wn from the processing site into the <br /> Creek bottom. <br />' S Rough grade the Creek b~~ttom. <br /> 4. install the topsoil and grade out. <br /> S. Seed and apply appropr•late fertilizer. <br />' E. Mulch with crimped-in straw, two tuns per acre. <br /> 7. Plant trees in the following spring. <br /> B. Fence uut the reclaimed areas to prevent cattle grazing <br /> initially. <br />' 9. Reseed and replace trees where necessary. <br />' Gr•a01n~[ <br /> Grading on-site will be carried on t~~ create a natural looking <br /> landfornr similar to what exists now. The Upland topography will <br />' be replicated and be approximately five feet lower- than it is <br /> now. Drainage swales from the undisturbed slopes will be <br /> extended up into the reclaimed area to reflect the existing <br /> drainage patterns. Reclaimed slopes in the Upland area will be <br />t similar- in degr^ee and location as to what exists now. <br /> In the Lowland areas, the slopes down to the new Creek bottom <br />1 will vary between 3:1 and 4:1. Since this new Creek 6~~ttom is <br /> only twelve feet lower than existing grade, these side slopes <br /> will n~~t appear- excessive. <br />' Drainage swales from above will be extended down the side slopes <br /> into the new Creek bottom. These drainage swales will be <br /> stabilized as described ear•lier• in this Exhibit. R11 grading <br />' will be done in a manner to minimize erosion and gullying. <br /> No acid forming or• toxic producing materials ar•e known t~~ exist <br /> in the overburden or the sand to be mined. Refuse will not be <br /> generated on the affected land nor- will any r^efuse be disposed in <br /> the mining process. <br />' No auger holes will be left after- mining of the site. Nu addits <br /> or shafts are associated with this operation. Slopes will be <br /> graded to be compatible with the final land use of grazing. Nu <br /> swimming ponds or facilities are included in the reclamation <br /> plan. qll of the reclaimed land will be used for grazing. <br /> <br /> <br />E - S <br />
