Reclamation of the site will then begin. The shop building will be tom down and removed from the site. Any mining <br />materials stored in the area will also be removed from the site. The area will then be graded to blend in with the <br />natural topography. <br />Once grading of the site is completed, the area will be covered with the best available plant growth media as <br />determined above. The site will then be drill seeded with the rangeland/wildlife seed mixture. In the event the seed <br />mixture is broadcast seeded, the seeding rate will be doubled. The azea will then be straw mulched with the mulch <br />applied at the rate of two tons/acre. <br />Once bond is released from the area, the associated sediment ponds will be graded to blend in with the natural <br />topography. Topsoil salvaged during the construction of the ponds will be used during the reclamation. The ponds <br />will then be drill seeded and mulched as described above. <br />The Utah Tract is an area of reclaimed surface mined spoil overlaying CEC's underground mining operation. The <br />area was regraded, topsoiled, seeded, and mulched between 1979 and 1983. The post-mining topography of the area <br />is presented in the Vegetation Map (Map 20) and Structures and Renewable Resources Map (Map25). CEC is <br />responsible for the revegetation success of the area. In the event any portions of the area require reseeding, they will <br />be drill seeded with the rangeland/wildlife seed mixture. If broadcast seeding is necessary, the seeding rate will be <br />double. Any area requiring reseeding will have straw mulch applied at the rate of two (2) tons/acre. The mulch will <br />be crimped into the reseeded top dressing. <br />Miscellaneous disturbed areas, which exist on the CEC site will also be reclaimed. These areas include, but are not <br />limited to; the No. SA powder magazine, various rock dust tanks, various light-duty roads, and drainage and sediment <br />control ponds and ditches which cannot be reclaimed until revegetation success has been achieved. <br />All structures and facilities associated with these areas will be removed from the site including all scrap mining <br />material. The areas will be regraded to the approximate original topography. The best available plant growth media <br />will be used to cover the regraded areas to approximately 6 to 12 inches. The areas will then be revegetated to the <br />appropriate land use as shown on the Reclamation Plan Map (Map 29). All areas will be straw mulched at a rate of <br />two tons/acre. <br />Multiple Services Building <br />Reclamation of the Multiple Services Building and 100,000 gallon water storage tank will consist of removing these <br />facilities from their respective sites. Grading, topsoiling, and seeding are discussed under the SA portal and red rock <br />crusher sites, which these facilities are located on. <br />Permanent Roads/Roads <br />All of the roads, except those shown on Map 29, will be removed upon completion of mining and reclamation <br />activities. The road surface materials will be graded to blend in with the surround topography, the road ripped, <br />topsoiled, and seeded with the appropriate seed mixture. <br />The permanent roads will be reduced in width and the shoulders ripped and seeded. The permanent roads will have a <br />top width of 20 feet. The road surfacing materials to be pulled in to narrow the road will increase the depth of these <br />materials, thus improving the permanent road surface. All of the permanent roads will be constructed with the <br />footprint of a haul road or access road. The current design requirements for these classes of roads will dictate that a <br />Permit Renewal No. 3 2.05-31 7/15/98 <br />
