.. , <br />Reclamation <br />Year Phase Relation to Mining Phases and Reclamation Activities <br />Reclamation <br />1-4 Phase 1 The conveyor support structures should be installed within l+ year. <br />Reclamation of the areas disturbed by installation of the conveyor's support <br />structures will constitute part of Reclamation Phase 1. Any areas disturbed <br />in the installation of the support structures will be revegetated with non- <br />irrigated grasses as outlined on page 7, and no additional reclamation <br />activities should be required, except for replanting as needed for up to a 3 <br />year period. <br />Reclamation <br />2-6 Phase 2 - Mining of the Phase 2 mining area should involve 2+ years. The area will be <br />Reclamation Phase 2. All backfilling, sloping, replacement of 6-12"± topsoil, <br />and revegetation with non-irrigated grasses as outlined on page 6 should begin <br />within the phase after mining is completed in this phase. Revegetation of non- <br />irrigated grasses as outlined on page 7 should begin in the 3`" year, be <br />completed in the 4's year, and be fully established by the 6'" year. <br />Reclamation <br />4-10 Phase 3 - Mining of the Phase 3 mining area should involve 3± years. The area will be <br />Reclamation Phase 3. All backfilling, sloping, replacement of 6-12"+ topsoil, <br />and revegetation with non-irrigated gasses as outlined on page 6 should begin <br />within [he phase after mining is completed within this phase. Revegetation of <br />non-irrigated grasses as outlined on page 7 should begin in the 5's year, be <br />completed in the 8'" year, and be fully established by the 1 Os' year. <br />7-14 Phase 4 - Mining of the Phase 4 mining area should involve 4± years. The area will be <br />Reclamation Phase 4. All backfilling, sloping, replacement of 6-12"± topsoil, <br />and revegetation with non-irrigated grasses as outlined on page 7 should begin <br />within the phase after mining is wmpleted within this phase. Ifa second slurry <br />wall is necessary to enclose this area, the area disturbed by the installation of <br />the slung wall will be the first area reclaimed. Revegetation ofnon-irrigated <br />grasses as outlined on page 7 should begin in the 8'" year, be completed in the <br />11's year, and be fully established by the 14'" year. <br />
