<br />Mr. Roy D. Blagg <br />-3- <br /> <br />February 4, 1983 <br />2. An analysis of the information s~,~~plied by the Soil Conservation <br />Service reveals a rather detailed reclamation plan outline. I suggest <br />that you review this plan in detail and comment on any areas in which <br />Terra does not plan to adhere to it. For example, your reclamation plan <br />\~ map no longer indicates the use of terraces for erosion control and I am <br />!~ not sure you plan to use diversions as recommended by the S.C.S. Erosion <br />control during reclamation is, however, very important. I will comment <br />further under Exhibit L. <br />3. Our vegetation specialist has analyzed the vegetation analysis and <br />j the re vegetation seeding mixture produced by the S.C.S. The following <br />.slightly expanded mixture is suggested: <br />S ecies <br />Intermediate wheatgrass <br />Pubescent wheatgrass <br />Western wheatgrass <br />Side oats grams <br />Alfalfa <br />To1;al <br />Drilled Rate in lbs. PLSjacre <br />5.0 <br />4.5 <br />4.0 <br />2.25 <br />0.5 <br />16.25 <br />This mixture should be even more suitable for pasture land. <br />4. The details of how reclamation is to interact witV~ mining should be <br />given. This will help you in calculating the total reclamation costs for <br />the operation. <br />Exhibit F <br />xl. The final contours for Area B should be shown on the map. <br />2. Any permanent land forms (such as terraces or diversion ditches) <br />added as a part of the final reclamation should be shown on the map. <br />3. This map may need to be more directly related to the staging of <br />your operations on the site, unless this is adequately shown in Exhibit C. <br />Exhibit G <br />v 1. Please respond to the review letter of January 26, 1983 from the <br />/~ Division of Water Resources. <br />/ 2. Will the final contours eliminate all standing water? Why is the <br />`X\ area now assumed to be totally dry in reclamation when the original plan <br />assumed the wet areas would be left? <br />Exhibit H <br />1. What are the plans for tree replacement as suggested by the <br />Division of Wildlife? <br />
