EXHIBIT E <br />RECLAMATION PLAN AND TIMETABLE <br />Reclamation Plan <br />' The Robinson Brick and Tile Company owns all of the property <br />' to be mined; therefore, no negotiations with third-party entities <br />will be required. <br />' Plans for the reclaimed affected land are part-time use as <br /> non-irrigated pasture land. <br /> As each mining stage is completed, the corresponding reclama- <br /> tion phase will be commenced. After salvagable soils are stripped <br /> <br /> from the next mining stage, t he remaining overburden will be <br />' stripped and used to establish the planned contour of the preceding <br />reclamation phase (see Map Exhibit F). Exposed clays will be <br />' covered with the sandy, gravely overburden to a minimum thickness <br />of approximately two feet. As soon as the final grading is <br />complete, the area will be resoiled with stockpiles of existing <br />' soils. The thickness of respread soils will vary between six and <br />twelve inches. <br />' Along the eastern and souti~ern perimeters of the pit the <br />slopes will be re-established at no greater than 2 to 1. In <br />many areas the slopes will be Less than 3 to 1, and in the bottom <br />' of the pit slopes will be only great enough to establish positive <br />drainage (see Map Exhibit F). <br />Since the property is being mined in six stages, there will <br />be six reclamation phases. It is expected that final grading <br />' and resoiling will be accomplished in the first year after mining <br />1 <br />15 <br />1 <br />
