•~ <br />Mr. W.R. & W.T. Hall -2- August 30, 1983 <br />3. Please state how many inches and cubic yards of overburden will be <br />stripped and stockpiled for later replacement. Where will the overburden <br />stockpiles be located and how many cubic yards will be in each. Please <br />describe or indicate on a map the location of each stockpile. <br />4. How did the operator arrive at the amount of overburden crust <br />(assume topsoil) as being less than 4 inches in thickness? <br />D. Exhibit E - Reclamation Plan <br />1. As tfie proposed future land use of the site is no longer <br />residential home sites, the operator will need to salvage and stockpile p K <br />sufficient topsoil and overburden to provide an adequate yrowth medium <br />above the shale layer. <br />2. The entire site will need to be revegetated upon completion of ~ K <br />mining, reclamation must be concurrent with mining activity. If this is <br />the operators intention, please indicate in the affirmative. <br />3. The staff suggests that the following yrass mix be drilled over all <br />areas ready for seeding: p{~ <br />Galleta 2.2 lb PLS/acre <br />? -- Inland Saltgrass .67 lb PLS/acre <br />Slender Wheatgrass 2.2 lb PLS/acre <br />7 -Tall Fescue 1.5 lb PLS/acre <br />• Foxtail Barley 2.U lb PLS/acre <br />Shad scale Saltbrush 1.0 lb PLS/acre <br />This seed rnix was arrived at using the recommended 4U pure liver seeds <br />per square foot. If the operator chooses to broadcast seed, the rate <br />should be doubled for each species. <br />4. The staff recommends that the operator consider mulching the seeded <br />area with clean straw or native grass at the rate of 1 1/2 to 2 tons per - <br />acre crimped to improve the growing conditions for the grass seedlings. <br />E. Exhibit F - Reclamation Plan <br />1. The map the operator sub~nitted as the reclamation plan snap is a <br />duplicate of the pre-mining and mining plan map. The reclamation plan <br />map must portray tine expected physical appearance of the area of the <br />affected land, correlated to the proposed mining and reclamation <br />timetables. This map must show the proposed topoyraphy of the area with <br />contour lines of sufficient detail to portray the direction and rate of <br />slope of all reclaimed lands. <br />F. Exhibit G - Water Information <br />J'1 <br />~,~~ <br />,a"'~ ~" <br />pK <br />1. During operation, all storm runoff must be directed into settling <br />ponds prior to being allowed to leave the permit boundaries via natural ~ ~ <br />drainage ways. The settling ponds should be designed for the 10 year 24 <br />hour event. Please provide data location of all settliny ponds to be <br />constructed. <br />
