<br />P~ ~ 7 ~' ~ <br />Cornpliance with riute o. <br />G. I. Cr¢ling ,hall Le done to urcurpurate a varied topogaphy with a meutimtmt slope of 2H : 1 V which <br />will enhance the areas use ru wildlife habitat and bl,:nd in to the strrtounding terrain. <br />a Backlilling orgading overb»rden or dre ulTected area well Ue accomplished with luacers, <br />trucks, dozers or scrapers. The material wdl be well shut s:mdstune which is typically -21 inch <br />itxk. This material will have enough finis to supprnt platy growth :md rnougtr larger rock to <br />maouaui erosional stability. 'ilte smtdstone uverburdun is non-toxic wtd thus lcaehing of tout <br />material will not happen. <br />b.

The ramaindcr ufthe area will have loss Droop slopes. <br />xnnc relatively t]at areas aitd up to 15°.•0 of tltc areas may be reclaimed as small canyons or <br />steep sided gullies with rock walls seed talus slopes. To maintain diversity, no more then e0% <br />of the area will have slopes That are 4I1 : 1 V or sh;rllower. Arras outside the affected land will <br />not be exposed to slides or other damage. <br />c.

E2ackfilling will be curried on cuutinuonsly as pan ot'the overall mining plan. Sloputg mrd <br />gading will be accomplished u soon as possible when access across the area is no longer <br />needed. <br />d. There will be ne acid forming or toxic producing material mined. <br />e. All drill holes will be plugged or covered.
