Will any surface or ground water be affec ed by this operation? Will CJ~aL, <br />any drainage channel be affected by this operation? ~0 <br />Exhibit E - Reclamation Plan <br />1. The mining plan specifies highwalls will be ten to fifteen feet in <br />height. This reclamation plan specifies slopes of 3h:ly. Are the slopes <br />referenced in this exhibit the highwalls referenced in Exhibit B? (If not, <br />the Division believes the highwalls should also be sloped to no steeper than <br />3h:ly since there is no reason to have them remain after final reclamation.) <br />2. What is the material below your ten to fifteen foot mining area? /1 aG/' <br />3. How much topsoil will be placed over the reclaimed area (in inches)? <br />The Division is concerned about water holding capacity of the soil and being <br />able to sustain the planted vegetation over an extended period of time. If <br />minimal amount of topsoil is to be put back over the reclaimed areas, the <br />operator should consider ripping the underlying material. 8 ~i 6 h' i-ePseil <br />fF Seel RuAI SrS w: //. 6e dou C. 6~~'•~~ rce /a r,p l.. <br />4. Why does the landowner want the two wheatgrass and the Ti~othy grass <br />species referenced in Mr. Hill's letter of June 17, 1983? The Division is <br />concerned since the Minerals Law (C.R.S. 34-32-101 et seq.) specifies native <br />plants shall be emphasized. The seed mixture suggested by Mr. Hill includes <br />two introduced and one native species. We suggest the following seed mixture <br />which emphasizes native species and utilizes species referenced in the <br />soils/vegetation report of Exhibit D.. ~`1-~- ~`'~-~•~~~---K Y~ F~-c-f~t;f~~~ <br />Species "x~ ounds Pure Se~2"""~`•~s ~%°'~`u~*^ ~i. <br />Per Acre - Drill Rate* '" ~.`` <br />Western wheatgrass 3.5 <br />Bluebunch wheatgrass 3.0 <br />Green Needlegrass 2.5 <br />Indian Ricegrass 2.0 <br />Lewis Flaz 1.D <br />12.0 <br />*Rate should be doubled for broadcasting purposes. <br />5.
