<br />IX. Soils - Rules _2.04.9, 2.05.3(5), 2.05.4(2)(d) and 4.06
<br />A soil survey of the disturbed area associated with the Foidel Creek Mine
<br />was conducted for Permit No. 79-177. The information is presented in
<br />Section 779.21 of Volume 1, and the soils are shown on Map 29.
<br />Topsoil salvage operations in conjunction with the permit revision
<br />involve 39,900 cubic yards of topsoil salvaged from twenty three acres of
<br />regraded land and 7,260 cubic yards of topsoil to be salvaged for the
<br />access/haul road. There is no topsoil on the remaining disturbed area.
<br />Topsoil salvaged from the twenty-three acres has been redistributed on
<br />regraded spoils of the Energy No. 1 Mine and the salvaged topsoil from
<br />the access/ haul road will be stockpiled for future use in reclamation of
<br />the Foidel Creek Mine. Existing topsoil stockpiles will be used to
<br />topsoil the disturbed areas. Volume and location of the stockpiles as
<br />well as depth of topsoil redistribution is shown on Map No. 5b. On the
<br />average, one foot of topsoil will be placed on the regraded distrubed
<br />areas.
