1 <br />EXHIBIT E (Cont'd) <br />Reclamation Standards. dining will create a topography <br />' appropriate to the final land use. Only very minor grading will <br />' be necessary. The floor of the quarry will have a slight crown <br />running north and south. This will allow runoff to flow to the <br />' historical watersheds. The north end of the property will be <br />left with 40-foot benches thus allowing the operator to maximize <br />the extraction of aggregate from this site. The very nature of <br />' the basalt dike allows nearly vertical slopes between the benches. <br />This open pit operation will have no drill holes or auger <br />' holes remaining and has no addits or shafts. <br />There are to be no earth dams. <br />' No toxic or acid-forming material will be encountered or <br />1 used in the operation. <br />All refuse will be hauled off site or buried in appropriate <br />' low areas so that unsightliness and deleterious effects will be <br />controlled. <br />' In those areas where revegetation is part of the reclamation <br />plan, land will be revegetated in such a way as to establish a <br />diverse, effective and long-lasting vegetative cover that is <br />' capable of self-regeneration and is at least equal in extent of <br />cover to the natural vegetation of the surrounding area. Refer <br />to P.evegetation Program later in this report for details. <br />Soil removal and storage was discussed in Exhibit D. Soils <br />will be used to prepare seedbeds in areas to be revegetated to a <br />' depth of about six to eight inches in the level areas and six <br />inches on the slope areas (see recoiling recommendation at the end <br />' of Exhibit I). <br /> <br />13 <br />
