Stockpiles which remain in place longer than one <br />growing season will be seeded with a fast growing cover to minimize <br />erosion. Handling of topsoil will be minimized by efficient <br />sequencing of mining and reclamation through phases. <br />After mining has passed through an area, non-marketable material <br />and overburden will be replaced at an even depth of 6 to 9 inches <br />along the shorelines and graded. Soil amendments are not proposed <br />due to the organic nature of this topsoil. However, if they are <br />determined necessary by the SCS they will be used to enhance plant <br />growth. <br />ggyegetation <br />The reclamation plan will revegetate all disturbed areas with <br />appropriate seed mixes to minimize erosion, re-establish natural <br />terrain, and create useable residential lots.
