EXHIBIT E (Cont'd.) <br />1 <br />' Overburden and soil removal and storage are discussed in <br />Exhibit D. The non-soil overburden will be returned to the <br />' preceding stage to establish the planned contour. Soils will <br />be respread to a depth 6 to 12 inches before revegetation of the <br />' area is begun. <br />It is not expected that there will be any disturbance to <br />the prevailing hydrologic balance of the affected land or of the <br />' surrounding area. This is essentially a dry operation with no <br />disturbance to either surface or ground water systems during or <br />after reclamation. <br />Lands off the site will not be affected in any foreseeable <br />' way by slides, runoff, erosion or any other function of the <br />' mining or reclamation operations. <br />All land area of the affected land will be stabilized through <br />' re vegetation to control erosion and air and water pollution. <br />The operator believes the reclamation plan will have no <br />significant impact on remaining wildlife (see Exhibit H). <br />' Revegetation Program <br />The revegetation program was designed by Mr. h4ark Heffner <br />1 of Oikos, an environmental consulting firm. Mr. Heifner's report <br />' in full may be found in Exhibits I and J. ' <br />After backfilling where necessary, final grading and <br />' recoiling, soil samples will be taken to test for nutrients, <br />salinity, SAR and pH. Problems will be corrected prior to <br />' seeding. <br />1 <br />17 <br />
