i r EXHIBIT E facilities, inclusion of rapidly developing species in the seed mixtures to be planted, proper seedbed preparation to encourage rapid plant establishment, and mulch application. The long-term objective is to establish wildlife habitat that is at least as useful and productive as existing conditions through the development of lowland plant communities and an open water reservoir. Buildings and Structures No buildings or structures existing or proposed are intended to remain onsite after reclamation has been completed. As the affected lands are private property not owned by the applicant, this statement applies only until the release of the reclamation permit for the site by the DMG. Signs and Markers The operator will post a sign as per the requirements of Construction Materials Rule 3, section 3.1.12, consisting o£ a) The name of the Operator. b) A statement that a reclamation permit for the operation has been issued by the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Board. c) Permit number. The boundaries of the permit area will be marked adequately to delineate affected areas where mining and associated activities may occur. Section 4 - Revegetation and Topsoil Plan Topsoil Plan Soils and selected growth media (including reclaimed and buried soils), collectively termed "soil" and "subsoil", will be salvaged and stockpiled according to the two-lift principal. The first lift will consist of the surface 1.0 foot of soil while the second lift will encompass the underlying subsoils to specified depths. A total of approximately 30,000 cubic yards of first lift and 55,000 cubic yards of second lift soils will be stockpiled. Table E-1. Soil Salvage Depth Summary, depicts salvage depths by soil map unit along with primary salvage constraints, where applicable. Two temporary soil stockpiles will be constructed to contain the first and second lift soil materials for each pit area to be disturbed. A total of four stockpiles will be developed. Stockpiles will be protected from operational disturbances to maintain their integrity. Stockpiles will assume as low a profile as possible to decrease wind erosion potential and be oriented, along the longitudinal axis, perpendicular to the prevailing wind direction if areal conditions permit. When portions of the stockpile are removed for soil redistribution, removal will take place on the leeward side of the stockpile to avoid
