<br />AREA E7 (2.59 ACRES): <br />Location: Southeast of Area E9 and north of irrigation ditch. An <br />isolated area. <br />Condition: A smal~ excavation with stockpiled topsoil and overburden <br />(total volume = 7,550 yd ). Includes the access road from Area E6. <br />Future Reclamation: Would become part of the overall reclamation plan <br />for pit area. <br />Current Reclamation: GYade steep slopes, backfill with overburden, <br />topdress with topsoil, revegetate. <br />Disturbance Reduction Program: Included. Plan is like current <br />reclamation. <br />AREA E8 (2.57 ACRES): <br />Location: North of tunnel under Academy Boulevard and east of highway. <br />Condition: A former extraction area that is being backfilled. <br />Future Reclamation: Produce slopes not steeper than 2.5:1 (preferably <br />about 3:1), topsoil, and revegetate. <br />Current Reclamation: Reorganize the existing backfill material to <br />produce an adequate slope, topsoil, revegetate. <br />Disturbance Reduction Program: Not currently included, but planned for <br />completion in the near future. <br />AREA E9 (9.99 ACRES): <br />Location: East of area E8 across the bottom of the excavation and <br />southwest of the irrigation ditch. <br />Condition: Paztially graded to a temQorazy slope. No further <br />excavation would occur in this area until either the ditch is moved to the <br />north of Area E9 or it is routed through a supported pipe and the sand <br />excavated out from under the existing ditch and connected with excavations to <br />the northeast of this area. (Please see 1985 amended plan for details on what <br />is currently proposed. The amendment under development would totally change <br />the current proposed approach which would be very expensive. The acquisition <br />of new land adjacent to the existing permit makes this alteration in the plan <br />possible and will result in a far better final condition.) <br />Future Reclamation: Final reclamation is still indefinite depending on <br />what happens to the irrigation ditch. At the least the current sloping would <br />be completed and the slope revegetated without further excavation. <br />Current Reclamation: Complete grading the slope, topsoil, revegetate. <br />Disturbance Reduction Program: Not included. <br />AREA E10 (2.9 ACRES): <br />Location: South of the tunnel under Academy Boulevard and east of the <br />highway. <br />Condition: West side is a revegetated highway slope. East side is the <br />remains of excavations, rough, steep, with a sharp crest. <br />Future Reclamation: Remove sand ridge to an elevation about 12 feet <br />higher than the roadway elevation. Round off the east side and revegetate. <br />Current Reclamation: Produce a more suitable slope by cut and fill <br />working from the south end. Revegetate. <br />Disturbance Reduction Program: Not included. <br />Page 13 Bonding Information M-73-007/M-77-213 January 7, 1992 <br />
