<br />The Bowie No. 2 Mine will be reclaimed to the post-mining ]and uses of rangeland, wildlife <br />habitat and industrial. All facilities areas and some roads will be reclaimed to reestablish the <br />approximate original contour of the land. All portals, shafts and monitoring wells will be <br />backfilled, in accordance with the applicable rules and with the reclamation details provided <br />within the permit application. Some of the roads which existed prior to mining will be retained to <br />serve the postmining land use. <br />Topsoil will be redistributed on all disturbed areas. The soils will be tested for nutrient <br />deficiencies, and fertilizers will be applied as needed. <br />Revegetation will be implemented using the seed mixes approved. Two permanent seed mixes <br />are proposed and approved. One mix will be applied to areas which were identified as Meadow <br />prior to mining, and another seed mix will be applied to the areas identified as Juniper Woodland <br />and Mixes Shrub communities prior to mining. Mulch will be applied at an approximate rate of <br />4000 pounds per acre. The USDA-FS provided its own reclamation seed mix for disturbed areas <br />on USFS lands. The Division had suggested the addition of three (orbs into the seed mix. <br />However, the USDA-FS declined the suggestion. BRL has accepted the USDA-FS reclamation <br />seed mix, with the knowledge that the reclamation success standards will still apply. <br />Hydrologic and subsidence monitoring will occur throughout the operational and reclamation <br />phases of the Bowie No. 2 Mine project. While deleterious hydrologic or subsidence-related <br />impacts are not anticipated, the Bowie No. 2 Mine permit application contains mitigation plans <br />to be implemented if negative impacts are detected. <br />17 <br />
