~~ <br />EXHIBIT E -Reclamation Plan <br />Revised for Technical Revision February 2007 <br />As detailed in AM-1, waste concrete that has cured for at least six weeks, non-marketable fine <br />material, and inert fill from off-site is used as backfil] in the waste concrete and inert fill area. The <br />inert fill could include concrete fragments, rock, and soil, and is inspected for suitability before <br />acceptance to the site. A maximum of 5,000 cy of inert fill and/or waste concrete will be stored on <br />site prior to backfilling at any time. After this material has been backfilled it will be covered with <br />6 inches of topsoil and seeded with a grass mix. A possible future waste and fill area is indicated <br />on the plan. <br />The mixture of grass seed used for reclamation depends upon the availability of the seed and the <br />conditions of the area to be seeded. Using a list of possible grasses provided by the Soil <br />Conservation Service, the following seed mix will be used as recommended by the DMG in the 2003 <br />amendment AM-1 application. <br />Twe % of Mix Seed Rate* <br />Fairway Crested Wheatgrass 25 2.0 <br />Switchgrass (Nebr 28) 25 I.0 <br />Western Wheatgrass (Barton) 25 3.5 <br />Side Oates Grama (Vaughn) 25 3.0 _ <br />9.5 <br />*lbs/Acre P.L.S., double rate for broadcast seeding. <br />The haul roads will remain for access to the lakes and meadows. The batch plant and office area <br />will remain at their present locations. As can be seen from the attached maps labeled Exhibit C and <br />Exhibit F. <br />Most of the existing trees in the area will not be disturbed. The lakes will be stocked with game fish <br />that will reproduce. <br />Final reclamation will be completed in the last six to twelve months of the Mining and Reclamation <br />Plan as indicated by the time schedule found in Exhibit D. <br />
