EXHIBIT E <br /> RECLAMATION PLAN <br /> The operator is also the landowner and resides adjacent to the property. The reclamation <br /> plan for this amended area will be the same as the existing permit # M-82-131. The <br /> operator will reclaim the land as unlined ponds and use them as a private recreational <br /> facility for his family. <br /> The reclamation will be done using on-site materials that are to be stripped and <br /> stockpiled. Overburden will be used for backfilling and resloping the pond perimeter. The <br /> salvaged topsoil will be replaced and graded along the shoreline in depths ranging from <br /> 6 inches to 12 inches. Some of the access roads will be kept in place to allow continued <br /> use of the property after reclamation has been completed. These roads are shown on <br /> Exhibit F. <br /> The proposed reclamation for Area A is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. <br /> This area is heavily mined for gravel with the City of Greeley owned property being <br /> adjacent at Island Grove Park and a Weld County Gravel Pit located across the river. <br /> The reclamation of area B will consist of regrading the area and ripping the areas where <br /> stockpiles or equipment sat. This area will be re-seeded to prevent erosion in preperation <br /> for uses that are compatible with the I zone. <br /> The reclamation performance standards of the site meets the requirements of Rule 6 and <br /> will be done in the following manner: <br /> Reclamation of separate :stages will be done on a five year timetable. The proposed <br /> reclamation of the land will be for private recreational purposes. <br /> Gradina <br /> The grading of the shorelines will be done with some irregularities and undulations built <br /> in for visual relief. <br /> The saleable material will be excavated using 3H:1V slopes. No backfilling of slopes will <br /> occur. All slopes will be ripped prior to topsoiling. <br /> All grading will be done to minimize erosion and siltation. Best management practices <br /> will be used on stockpiles . All erosion that will occur would be confined to the property <br /> and not impact adjacent property owners. <br /> E-1 <br />
