Some pit <br />run material will probably applied to some portions of the road to aid in <br />fugitive dust control, but there will be no extensive reconstruction. <br />EXHIBIT D <br />1. The applicant will commit to a sloping of 2:1 from 10' below the water <br />line to the pit floor as opposed to the natural angle of repose requested in <br />the application. <br />2. The comments expressed earlier in Exhibit B, question 2, clarify the <br />applicant's position on the use of overburden for shoreline irregularities <br />and flood control berms. <br />3. Your explanation is clear on the Board's requirements for a 110 Permit. <br />therefore, the operator will commit to regrading, topsoiling and planting <br />all areas needing reclamation including the north and east pit boundaries <br />and lake shore. As stated earlier, the operator does plan at a later date <br />to convert to a 112 Permit. When that is done, the reclamation plan will be <br />modified regarding the treatment of the north and east boundaries. <br />4. The Soil Conservation Service will be contacted regarding trees and shrubs <br />on the site. The Division of Wildlife suggests "The riparian area should be <br />allowed to revegetate with cottonwood and tamarisk." The applicant's <br />experience in similar operations has been that revegetation occurs fairly <br />rapidly. <br />I believe this should give comprehensive answers to questions you <br />raised. If there is anything that is unclear, please call me. <br />Sincerely Yours, <br />_i~ ~~ <br />Bruce Cramb <br />General Manager <br />
