• E~BIT E <br />RECLAMATION PLAN AND TIhSETABLE <br />Reclamation Plan. The proposed reclamation plan will <br />create an area of private recreation and varied wildlife <br />habitat as well as commercial/industrial property along the <br />highway . Area 1 will be divided into t~vo lakes which will lie <br />along the Arkansas River. The plan for Area 2 is to refill <br />and rezone for commercial/industrial use (see map Exhibit F). <br />The area mined as Stage Z will be regraded and converted to <br />commercial/industrial zoning along Highway 9G. Areas 3 and 4 <br />will become two small lakes, one in each mined area. Should <br />it become impossible to use Area 2 and Stage Z for commercial/ <br />industrial development, Valco will implement an alternate plan <br />which will create a lake in Area 2 compatible with the other <br />lakes to be created (see map Exhibit F-1). As Areas 2 and 3 <br />are mined, .t he irrigated alfalfa field and the irrigated tree <br />nursery will be phased out. The Stage Z alternate plan is to <br />regrade and reshape to contours compatible with the surrounding <br />topography and to revegetate side slopes where possible. Much <br />of Stage Z is limestone roc]c with no soil cover and no vegeta- <br />tion. <br />The two lakes in Area 1 will be approximately 10.74 acres + <br />• aad 20.50 + of water surface. The lake in Area 2, if the <br />alternate reclamation plan becomes necessary, will be approxi- <br />mately 29.29 acres + water surface. The Area 3 lake will <br />approximate 9.79 acres + water surface and the lake in Area 4 <br />will have a water surface of approximately 48.69 acres +. <br />
