<br /> <br />1. All slopes, other than vertical sandstone quarry walls must be <br />2:1 (2 horizontal: 1 vertical) or less. This will decrease <br />water erosion of the fines and make reseeding more successful. <br />2. For final reclamation (at the end of quarry operations) all the <br />topsoil/overburden should be replaced evenly over the level areas <br />of the quarry and planted. A seed mix and the seedling list will <br />be prepared by the Division staff in the near future for use on <br />sandstone quarry sites north of Lyons. We realize that certain <br />sites will have no topsoil/overburden to be spread back over the <br />site. Were none is available, the site should be left in a clean, <br />stable condition. <br />3. In regards to your letter, what do you fill in with rubble and <br />topsoil as you go? <br />4. Our understanding of your reclamation plan is this: <br />a. Replacing topsoil/overburden on non-productive sand- <br />stone areas as the quarry operation proceeds. <br />b. Seeding and planting these areas when they are no <br />longer going to be disturbed. <br />c. Building your house on a portion of one quarry. <br />d. Leveling any remaining rubble piles and cleaning <br />up the site of old vehicles, machinery and trash. <br />Please comment and clarify the above reclamation plan. <br />
