<br />(e) A plan or schedule indicating how and when reclamation will be implemented. The plan or <br />schedule shall include: <br />(i) an estimate of the periods of time which will be required for the various stages of <br />reclamation. <br />Reclamation will start as soon as operationally feasible after there is sufficient room for equipment, <br />equipment movement and stockpiling. This is estimated to begin within 2 - 3 years, depending on <br />business demand for the products produced. Reclamation will then follow mining as closely as <br />possible during the life of this operation. Plans are to have everything done witlt all reclamation <br />complete within 5 years after mining is complete and all stockpiles removed. <br />(ii) a description of the size and location of each area to be reclaimed during each phase. <br />Mining will start on the east side of the affected area at the point the haul road enters the pit from <br />Lane 36, and will continue southerly tmtil the southern area has been completely ntined. Mining will <br />then continue north to the north boundary of the affected area. As stated earlier, this is not a phased <br />operation, but 40 acres is the most that will be affected a[ any one time by the gradual movement of <br />mining in the me o escn ed. Reclamation willTo ow mining as close as operationally feasible <br />and will encompass ~ ] 0 acres. <br />(iii) an outline of the sequence in which each stage or phase of reclamation will be carried out: <br />~';i'"e~re~c--e ~Ak j <br />a. grade the~it floor <br />b. topsoiYS" - 7~~'~ average 6" j , <br />c. scarifyi~'necessary - R`~>' ,l <br />d. fertilize <br />e. drill seed <br />(f) a description of each of the following: <br />(i) final grading <br />Pit floor will be lefr level v<~ith possibly a slight slope to the north.
