6.4.5 Exhibit E -Reclamation Plan <br />Backfill Western 300 ft of Existing Pond <br />Reclamation will begin by moving overburden from the north 1/3 of Cell 1 to the <br />west 250 ft of the existing pond area. Backfilling this area will help to stabilize <br />the river bank of Boulder Creek and prevent river capture of the existing pond. <br />Total volume to backfill this area is approximately 85,000 yd3 <br />Concurrent Backfilling Adjacent to Oil and Gas Structures <br />Agreements between owners of oil and gas structures specify that mining can <br />occur no closer than 75 ft from oil and gas well facilities as a temporary condition. <br />ASCI will backfill areas adjacent to oil and gas oil and gas wells as shown in <br />Exhibit C-2, Mining Plan Maps. Backfilling adjacent to oil and gas structures to a <br />radial distance of 150 ft will occur within two weeks following excavation near oil <br />and gas structures. The total volume of material needed to backfill these areas is <br />approximately 94,307 yd3 <br />Backfilling Perimeter of Cell 2 <br />The next phase of reclamation will occur followinq~ mining of the north boundary <br />backfill area in Cell 2. Approximately 150,000 yd stockpiled in the north area of <br />Cell 2 will be backfilled into the north backfill area of Cell 2. <br />Concurrent reclamation of Cell 2 will occur as additional overburden stripped for <br />operations moving south will be placed into mined out backfill areas as mining <br />proceeds south (see Exhibit F -Reclamation Plan for location of backfill areas). <br />Backfilling Cell 3 <br />Backfilling of Cell 3 will begin following mining of Cell 6. Overburden stripped <br />from Cell 6 will be placed directly into Cell 3. Additional overburden from Cell 4 <br />will be placed directly into Cell 3 prior to mining Cell 4. Cell 3 will be backfilled to <br />approximate historic grade. <br />Backfilling Cell 6 <br />Backfilling of Cell 6 will begin following mining of Cell 5. Overburden from Cell 5 <br />will be placed directly into Cell 6. Additional backfill will be obtained from the <br />Borrow Cell, near Cell 1. Cell 6 will be backfilled to approximate historic grade. <br />Backfilling of an area shown in Exhibit F- Sheet 4 will be done during the non- <br />irrigation season (November-March) for the purpose of construction of a pipe that <br />will route a 3 cfs pending water right from west of Cell 6 to the Plumb and Dailey <br />Ditch. <br />Design and Construction of 3 cfs Water Right Pipe <br />The Plumb and Dailey Ditch Company has filed fora 3 cfs flow absolute water <br />right on water that flows through Cell 6. This section provides a design and <br />construction specification to route this flow through a pipe. The design criteria for <br />the pipe includes 1) ability to convey 3 cfs, 2) structural integrity sufficient to <br />protect the inlet and outlet for flows near pipe full flow capacity, 3) the pipe exit <br />elevation must be above the water line for the maximum decreed Plumb and <br />Turnpike Mining Resource M-2004-AM-1 <br />Regular 112 application <br />
