RECLAMATION PLAN <br />Signs and Markers (no moai6cations> <br />Ezttrauce Sigzz: An entrance sign will be placed at the permit boundary along the access road. No <br />entrance sign will be placed at the gate on Highway 115 because that is about three miles from the <br />permit. <br />An additional sign will be placed at the entrance to the actual mining area to warn people <br />that they are entering a quarry and a potentially hazardous area. The area will be posted for "No <br />Trespassing," but in an area such as this prevention of trespassing will be difficult to enforce. <br />Permit/Affected Laud Boundaries: As stated in the mining plan, the permit boundaries follow <br />quarter section lines. These will be marked. In some areas these lines appear to be marked by old <br />fences. In other areas the lines are not presently indicated on the ground. In all cases, the quarter <br />section lines that define the permit boundaries will be identified and marked by survey. <br />As stated in the mining plan, the affected land boundaries are defined by appropriate <br />setbacks from the permit boundaries. Adjacent to quarter section lines, the affected land boundary <br />(setback) will be established at a constant 50 foot distance. These setbacks will be marked only <br />when mining is occurring nearby. Along the mesa edge the setback will vary from a minimum of 50 <br />feet to a maximum of 100 feet. The actual setback will be dependent upon the condition of the rock <br />present on the edge of the mesa. Where large masses of clearly unstable rock are present on the <br />mesa edge and that rock could fall under the influence of blasting shock, the setback will be greater <br />to reduce the chance that the mesa edge will be damaged. However, it must be noted that even with <br />large amounts of setback, rockfall cannot be totally avoided. Very loose masses could fall even with <br />several hundred feet of setback. But then, if the mass is that loose it would probably fall in the near <br />future anyway. <br />Features to Remain after Reclamation (no moai6cations) <br />The only feature to remain after completion of reclamation will be the access road leading to <br />the quarry area. No roads will be left in the quarry area itself unless requested by the Colorado <br />Board of Land Commissioners and/or the Bureau of Land Management (the land owners). <br />CroSS-SCCt10I1S (new addition to exhibit) <br />The cross-sections included at the end of this exhibit are very similar to the cross-sections <br />located at the end of the mining plan (Exhibit D). The difference is these more directly addresses <br />the reclamation. Slope gradients and erosion control terraces are shown. The original surface is <br />shown as a dotted line and the reclamation surface is a solid line that connects to the existing <br />topography outside the affected land boundary, mining limit, or permit boundary, as the case may <br />be. In examining these cross-sections it would be useful to refer to the sections in the mining plan at <br />the same time. <br />Table Mountain Quarry -Castle Concrete Company Exhibit E (Amendment 11 Page 8 <br />
