<br />~~ <br />4 <br /> <br />RcclamaCinn Plan <br />~ Exhibit E <br /> <br />Original and existing extreme vertical heights of [he deposit <br />formation are characteristic of the entire surrounding area. Present <br />quarry operations are directed at processing this vertical height face <br />in a safe and practical manner. Physical appearance of the deposit <br />walls will not visually change dramatically. In as much as the final <br />I <br />result appearance is foremost in reclamation planning, we are proposing <br />that present operation continue rather than sloping the vertical walls. <br />1'u produce a flattening or sloping appearance would detract Crom the <br />beauty of the adjacent vertical faces. Removed deposit areas will be <br />blended smoothly with a small terrace thence conforming [o the approximate <br />creek level. <br />Overburden from past and future mining, that lies above the dep•-:.ic <br />is currently being segregated and stockpiled above the quarry site. It is <br />esCimat eel that approximately 41,000 to 50,000 yards of this cuLuvial soil <br />will be needed to plate the bottom area of ll~e quarry, stockpile and <br />production areas. There will be more than enough of this soil to complete <br />the revegetation and restoration effort. <br />Other than [he vertical walls left from the quarry operations thr <br />entire affected area will be reclaimed as cattle rany;e land.
