(2) The boundaries of the affected area will be mazked with monuments, that are cleazly visible: <br />(a) This is a 112 operation, therefore, the permit boundary and the affected boundary are not <br />the same, and the operator/applicant is proposing a floating bond to cover a portion of the site, to <br />allow mining and reclamation to be ongoing. <br />(3) The affected land wilt be monumented for easy delineation. <br />(d) Where applicable, the operatorlapplicant has plans developed for the segregation, <br />preservation, replacement, compaction and grading of soil used for revegetation. The revegetation <br />plan will contain a list of the preferred species of grasses to be planted as recommended by the field <br />office of the MRCS. All seeds recommended should be available and in sufficient quantity to <br />accomplish the revegetation. <br />Seedbed preparation has been covered in Section 3.1 of this application. <br />(e) The schedule of reclamation will closely follow the mining phasing, and the operator would <br />expect to start reclamation as soon as feasible after mining has been completed, in a 5 acre mining <br />area, and the operator would expect to have vegetation ready for release within a 3 - 5 year period <br />This sequencing will allow for the floating bond of 20 acres. <br />The final grading also will be done in conjunction (concurrently) with mining. All backsloping, <br />daylighting and contouring will be done as mining progresses. <br />As stated before, this land will be used for grazing cattle as a final land use, and all of the NRCS <br />recommendations will be done. <br />Topsoil will be replaced at between 1 and 6 inches on all disturbed areas. <br />Attached is the Seed Mixture recommendationfrom the NRCS at 3590 E. Main Street, Trinidad, CO <br />81082. Report Dated 7/13106 <br />
