In any event equivalent <br />topsoil will be placed on the reclaimed surface to provide <br />coverage at least equal to the present coverage. Also grading <br />wi11 be accomplished to provide maximum ease of irrigation of <br />reclaimed land. <br />Several varieties of grass seed will be broadcast, The <br />mix of seed will be in agreement with recommendati6ns of the Soi <br />Conservation Service.

Consideration <br />will be given to the use of fertilizers approved by the Soil <br />Conservation Service, <br />Although the bonding specified in this application, which <br />will be the responsibility of the gravel operator in the amount <br />of approximately X300,00 per acre, the landowner will supple- <br />ment this amount to accomplish the physical appearance of the <br />area after completion of reclamation to be, at worst, equal to <br />present appearance. <br />
