EXHIBIT E (Ft•. 3-10-78 ) • 4 e. Where applicable, plans for topsoil segregation, preserva- • tion, and replacement; for stabilization, compaction, and grading of spoil; and for revegetation. The revegetation plan shall contain a list of the preferred species of grass, legumes, forbs, shrubs or trees to be planted, the method and rates of seeding and planting, the estimated availability of viable seeds in sufficient quantities of the species proposed to be used, and the proposed time of seeding and planting. Plans for topsoil and substitute materials segregation, stockpiling locations, preservation, and replacement, is given in Exhibit D and the introduction to Exhibit E. Past experience on the more massive overburden depositions has encountered settlement. Trucking over deposited over- burden in the small future cuts may provide sufficient compaction to eliminate a period of settlement and re- grading before reclamation. A bulldozer and road grader • are used to grade as trucks dump overburden or surface materials for final grading. When scraper-type equipment is available, the final grading operation should become more efficien-;. A chisel-tyype operation with the road grader may be necessary on occasion to loosen compacted final grading for planting. Seeding information is given under Ea:hibit E (g) (ii) below. f. A timetable shall be required to describe the reclamation operation in terms of: (i) An estimate of the periods of time which will be re- quired for the various stages or phases of reclamation. (ii) A description of the size and location of each area to be reclaimed during each phase. (iii )An outline of the sequence in which each stage or phase of reclamation will be carried out. (Timetables need not be separate and distinct from the reclamation plan, but ma,y be incorporated therein.) • (i) Earliest reclamation will involve those portions of the designated active overburden deposition area
