<br />• be kept informed of developments should this occur in order to assure that <br />the facilities will not be abandoned, but will be transferred to a bona fide <br />operator with CMLRB's concurrence. <br />Reclamation Plan. Provided that no bona fide requests are made for the <br />facilities, reclamation of the office/shop area wil- take place after cessation <br />of operations. Bored on the previously stated evidence of conditions prior to <br />mining and the desire to perform reclamation that will benefit the post- <br />mining land uses, reclamation will approximate closely that which is detailed <br />in Tab 13 of the Seneca II Permit Application (revised May 27, 1981). Items <br />that are more specific to the office/shop area are detailed below. <br />I. Preparation of the Site. With the completion of operations and final <br />reclamation, the facilities will no longer be needed and will be dismantled. <br />Foundations and other concrete structures will be broken and hauled to the <br />solid waste disposal area for burial as shown on Exhibit 12-2, Mining Facili- <br />ties Map. Two feet of soil or other materials on the site will be removed and <br />• disposed of in the ash disposal area. This will insure that surfacing materials <br />used in the office/shop area plus any debris from the dismantling operation <br />will be removed. The area will then be deep ripped to reduce compaction <br />and enhance root penetration and infiltration. Slopes around the office/shop <br />area will be graded and shaped to a more gentle angle that blends in with the <br />surrounding topography. <br />2. Topsoil Replacement. Topsoil will be placed over The ripped and shaped <br />areas to a depth of two feet. The topsoil will be taken from a topsoil stock- <br />pile located directly west of the Wadge Impoundment. Replacement of <br />topsoil will follow procedures detailed in Tab 9, Attachment I, Topsoil <br />Management Plan and Scheduling. <br />3. Revegetation. After topsoil has been replaced and the surface prepared <br />for planting, mulching will be done at the mte of 2000-3000 lbs./acre. <br />Planting of the permanent seed mixture will take place during the first <br />• appropriate period (May 1 -June IS or September I -November I). Seed <br />Mix No. 2 listed in Tab 13 of the Seneca II Mine Permit Application will be <br />the preferred seed mix for revegetation of the office/shop area and any <br />associated disturbances due to grading. <br />NOV 2 S 1981 <br />
