<br /> <br />COOLEY AND FULTON LAKES PIT <br />(Revised 07/09/991 <br />EXHIBIT E -RECLAMATION PLAN <br />The reclamation plan is to do the following: <br />Preserve existing open space/wildlife preserve areas in their natural state. <br />2. Create new open space/wildlife preserve areas. <br />Create a sealed water storage reservoir. <br />4. Utilize and slightly expand an existing industrial use area, and return this area to industrial <br />uses upon completion of all of the mining and removal of the plant site facilities. <br />5. Chain link fencing along the proposed Adams County S. Platte River Trail and the S. <br />Platte River Trail itself, is not part of CAMAS's responsibility. Fencing will only be <br />installed by the County along their trail, if an when the County decides to install the <br />trail. If the County doesn't install the trail during mining, no chain link fencing will be <br />installed along the east boundary of Phases 2, 3, and 4. Item # 8. <br />Except for Phase 1B, rnining areas of Parcel B, reclamation will proceed in roughly the same phases <br />as mining. Slopes will be excavated temporarily to OH (Horizontal) to 1 V (Vertical). Final slopes <br />will be reclaimed with overburden, waste soil materials, and sand spoils to create stable 3H:1 V slopes <br />from ground level to the depth of the excavation Backfilling will occur concurrently with mining, <br />grading will be uniform and continuous and performed in such a manner as to create stable slopes and <br />minimize erosion. <br />General standards for bank stability shall be as follows: <br />1. All backfilled material will be placed in controlled lifts and compacted to 95% at <br />optimum moisture density according to ASTM D-698 requirements. Thickness of lift <br />and moisture density relationships will be determined by lab testing. <br />2. Backfilled slopes will have granular material placed over the top of compacted <br />embankment to protect from wave erosion. <br />3. Bank slopes and high walls will be cleared, grubbed, and scarified with each lift prior <br />to tieing in of the compacted slope embankment. Each lift will overlap into highwalls <br />a minimum of 12 inches or to competent material. <br />4. The method used to ensure adequate compaction in backfdled slopes will be compaction <br />testing with a calibrated nuclear density meter. <br />
