REVISED EXHIBIT "E"
Exhibit "E" of the initial Reclamation Application is herein revised
to reflect the following:
A. The slopes in the reclaimed area, 3.26 acres above the water
and the additional 2.5 acres below the water will be sloped as stated In
Paragraph 1 of the Initial Reclamation Exhibit and will be disced parallel
to the slope base of the pond to minimize erosion problems.
B. The seed mix, as stated in Paragraph 1 of the initial Exhibit
"E" to this application, is amended to show that the seed mix would
include blue grama, sand, drop seed and side oat grama, replacing wild
rye and pubescent wheat grass In the same quantities.
C. After relayering and sloping of the area to be reclaimed has
been effected, but prior to reseeding, it will be tested to determine If
soil additives or fertilizers are necessary, which as necessary will be
added to support the revegetative mix set forth above.
D. The relayering of the overburden, sloping and revegetative mix
with the supplementation of the soil , If necessary, in Sector A will be
effected upon cessation of mining in Parcel A no later than one ( 1 ) year
after the cessation of mining in Parcel A. After cessation of mining in
Parcel B, the relayering of overburden, sloping, soil supplementation
and revegetative mix will be planted no later than six (6) months after
cessation of mining within Parcel B.
E. The stockpiles, as referenced in Exhibit "D", of course, will
be reduced and used for the relayering and sloping of the perimeter, the
reclamation of 3.26 acres above the water and 2.5 acres below. THUS,
5.75 ACRES WILL BE THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF OVERBURDEN AND TOPSOIL REPLACED
WHICH IT IS ESTIMATED WILL BE REMOVED TO PERMIT MINING.
F. It is explicitly understood that reclamation of the perimeter,
leaving a net pool of water of 10 acres in Parcel A and a net pool of
water of .9 acres of water in Parcel B, according to Exhibits "D" and
"E", i .e. the proper sloping, relayering of overburden and topsoil , the
soil supplementation and revegetation, given the proper slopes as stated
therein, is the responsibility of the permit holder only and that bond
will not be released until this relcama'fion is completed. This reclamation,
as herein set forth, was the minimal reclamation in the Initial application.
The operator still will be responsible for that minimal reclamation and
should there be additional clean fill materials because they exist on
the property, which would result in the fill of a significantly larger
area than stated herein (which Is not expected) , the operator would
appear before the Board for a technical revision of this Reclamation
Plan.
Further, should the owner be able to obtain clean fill to cover the
standing pond of water or a significant part of the pool of water not;a
part of this permit, then it is understood that this is the landowner's
responsibility and that he may appear before the Board for a technical
revision to permit the fill and reclamation in whole or in part the
standing pools of water to be left when the operator ceases his operation
and reclamation. The owner understands that:
A. Any permits from the County for clean fill material deposit
would have to be procured;
B. Approval would be necessary by the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation
Board;
C. That the type of material would have to be analyzed in terms
of any possible pollution of the water or water table by siltation or
toxicity; and
