kept to a minimum from the truck traffic. All trucks will also be covered as they leave the site and <br />will not track mud onto the Highway. <br />2.4 Topsoil Handling for Gravel Operation <br />As previously described, all disturbed azea for the gravel portion of the disturbed azea has been previ- <br />ously disturbed with no topsoil salvaged. This area is 40.5 acres. The 110 azea of 11.8 acres will be <br />reclaimed at the same time that the operation moves north of the gold plant, using sediment fines that <br />aze salvaged from the 110 operation in settling Pond D. Approximately 3500 cy has been salvaged <br />from this pond as of April 2003. This has been placed in Fines Pile #4, as shown on Map C-2. Fines <br />Pile #1 can also be used by the gravel operation. These piles will have slopes no steeper than <br />2.SH:1 V and will be seeded according to the following mix: <br />TopsoiUFines Stockpile Seed Mix Lbs./acre <br />Slender Wheatgrass 10.0 <br />Western Wheatgrass 10.0 <br />Thickspike Wheatgrass 10.0 <br />Crested Wheatgrass 3.0 <br />Perennial Rye Grass 3.0 <br />Cicer Milkvetch 1.0 <br />Utah Sweetvetch 1.0 <br />Total 38.0 <br />In order to place 3" of fines over the 11.8 acres, 4759 cy is needed. Therefore, an additional 1260 cy <br />is needed to complete re-topsoiling using the substitute material. Of the 28.7 disturbed acres in the <br />north mine azea, 2.8 acres will remain as ponds and 2.8 acres will remain as roads, therefore, only <br />23.1 acres will require the substitute fines. Using a 3" average thickness, this requires 9317 cy. <br />Alma Placer 7/03 30 <br />
