(2) (cont.) <br />(b) The area comprising the mine property and the surrounding lands are <br />designated as residential use on the Florida Mesa Land-Use Plan. The <br />property shown as "Commercial and Retail" (attached) is currently <br />designated as commercial use on the same plan. This tract will be <br />developed as commercial and/ or light industrial use upon the <br />cessation of mining operations. A map labeled "Conceptual Plan" is <br />also attached to illustrate the phases of residential and commercial <br />post-mining development. <br />(c) Implementation of the Reclamation Plan pursuant to Section 3.1 is <br />described as follows: <br />The lands on which mining will take place are owned by the <br />Operator! Applicant, with the exception of the Fassbender property <br />as shown on Exhibit C. It is the desire of both parties to reclaim the <br />affected area to the extent that residential development can be <br />implemented. <br />Post-mining grading of all affected areas will be performed to meet <br />the topographic requirements of the proposed development. <br />Erosion and siltation will be controlled throughout the reclamation <br />process such that lands outside of the affected area will not be <br />impacted. <br />Neither refuse nor acid-forming or toxic-producing materials are <br />expected to be mined. Should any of these materials be <br />discovered, they will be handled and disposed of in a acceptable <br />manner at the cessation of mining. <br />(d) Wsthin phases A, S, C, and O topsoil will be removed and placedsn <br />segregated berms along the perimeter of each mining cell as shown on <br />Exhibit G. Additionally it is proposed to employ topsoil berms along the <br />western mining limits of phases A and B to act as detention for <br />potential stormwater. As discussed earlier, topsoil will be revegetated <br />and maintained until it is replaced post-mining. <br />Phase E possesses little to no topsoil. It is proposed that a portion of <br />the upper zone of overburden be removed from this phase and be <br />seeded with dry land seed to provide stability. <br />Methods and rates of reseeding during reclamation are as follows: <br />
