EXHIBIT D-2 <br /> Page 6 <br /> -5- <br /> Reclamation Recommendations (Batchelor & Wedge) <br /> As spoil dumps are being removed, care should be taken to leave approxi- <br /> mately 1 foot of fine spoil material and hopefully original topsoil. This <br /> material will provide somewhat of a seedbed and act as a water holding media. <br /> However, if at all possible, the newly stripped area should be topsoiled at <br /> least 4" deep and tilled into the underlying material. <br /> Since both mine dumps are in drainage areas, it will probably be nec- <br /> essary to put in water diversions to reduce slope lengths and reduce ero- <br /> sion. The site should be reshaped as to conform with the surrounding natu- <br /> ral landscape. Landscaping with rock and logs will help break up slopes and <br /> provide small water catchment pockets.
