,~; <br />EXHIBIT D - RECLAMATION PLAN <br />Soil will be replaced to approximately 6"-10" depth as the <br />quarry areas are depleted or no longer used. It wily be <br />seeded when it is known that no machinery will be driving on <br />those areas. <br />2. The gradient of reclaimed slopes wiil be 3:1 or less. If <br />steeper slopes are required then the slopes will be stepped <br />into terraces to accomplish the desired stability for the <br />vegetation. The slopes are expected to follow the general <br />slope of the existing land. <br />3. The following measures will be taken to re-vegetate the site <br />as then are applicable. <br />(al The thickness of the plant growth should be eoual to or <br />better than the surrounding growth to establish the <br />quantity and Duality desired. See Soil Conservation <br />recommendations. <br />(b) The site will be seeded on an on-going reclamation <br />program. Too soil will be replaced and seeded as it is <br />determined that an area is depleted and it will not be <br />run over by machinery. Seeding will be Done in the <br />spring and late fall. Too soil will be dozed onto the <br />reclamation site; this will break up the soil and prevent <br />compaction. Soil will be tested to indicate amount and <br />type of fertilizer needed. <br />(c) See Soil Conservation Report in Exhibit B for types and <br />amount of PLS/acre. <br />(d) The seea wili be broatlcast. See Soil Conservation Report <br />(Exhibit B). <br />(e) Straw mulch will be used at 4006 lbs, per acre. See Soil <br />Conservation Report. <br />(fl No shrubs or trees are in the Hermit area; only grasses. <br />See Soil Conservation Report. We will try, however, to <br />get some of the local pine trees started by small plants <br />or seeds. <br />4. There are no ponds, streams. or buildings in the permit area. <br />The existing roads will remain as they provide access to the <br />land surrounding the permit area and were constructed for that <br />~ purpose. <br />
