~ (5) ~ <br />EXHIBIT E. RECLAMATION PLAN <br />This operation is expected to continue for many years. <br />Since the affected area is only two acres, there will be no <br />stages of reclamation. All reclamation shall take place when <br />the quarry is considered useless or undes?.rable. <br />This pit lies on a hillside of huge rock outcroppings. <br />A rock wall will remain after reclamation, being about 30 to <br />40 feet high. The final grading of the quarry floor will <br />slope 5 to 15 percent, ranging in a depth of six to twelve <br />inches. As stated in the soil letter, this can be borrowed <br />from the adjacent valley below the quarry. <br />Seeding will comprise of the following mixture: <br />Sand Dropseed (50f) .2 lbs/acre <br />Indian Ricegrass (25y) 4 lbs./acre <br />Western Wheatgrass (25~) 3 lbs./acre <br />Yellow Sweetclover 1 lbs./acre <br />Also planted in the quarry floor will be Squawbush Sumac and <br />Rocky Mountain Juniper at approximately 50 per acre. Drainage <br />of this area will not be a problem. <br />The estimated costs of such revegetation and work can be <br />broken down as follows: <br />Cost of grasses 35-5C <br />Cost of trees and shrubs 500-575 <br />Cost of equipment 270-350 <br />Cost of labor 75-125 <br />These costs will probably average out to an expected $1000 <br />cost for reclamation of the Marrs Memorials. <br />
