MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Mark Gray, Ron Thompson <br />FROM: Jerry Koblitz <br />DATE: October 1, 1999 <br />SUBJECT: RDA Fourth Lift Face Reclamation <br />Reclamation of the fourth lift face of the RDA at the New Elk Mine was completed in June 1999. <br />Refuse on the lifr face was graded to a slope of approximately 2.2:1 and shaped to blend with the <br />bench surface below and the side drains to the east and west to provide positive drainage. Several <br />small areas on the bench below were also reworked to eliminate refuse which had washed down <br />from the top of the pile. A total of 3.25 feet ofnon-toxic, non-combustible material was salvaged <br />from the northwest comer of the RDA and spread onto the lift face. Topsoil was also salvaged from <br />the same area and spread on the subsoil material in a nine inch lift. The approved seed mix (see <br />supplier ticket below) was broadcast on the reclaimed face and mulched with straw. Nylon netting <br />was staked onto the surface to retain moisture and keep the mulch in place. <br />RRNGELAND SEED MIX <br />Kiod_&_Slatieta_____._______ <br />SID'cllAl'S GItAMA <br />WESTERN WHEATGRASS <br />5AINF'UIN <br />STREAHBANK WHEA7GRAS5 <br />LITTLk isI..UE:ST~N <br />SNUUTH 8kf1ME <br />BLUE GRAMA <br />FUFFALUGkASS <br />THICKS?[KE WNEA'I'URA55 <br />ROCKY NUUNTAIN 41I1_DFLU41EkS <br />kU86Ef2 RAB:)ITT.ti(U;iH <br />CICER PIILKVETCH <br />WUUDS kUSE <br />Lot: <br />-----~- --f.ure--- <br />17.:,2% <br />12.(11% <br />li.l:f% <br />B.a'2% <br />7.G3% <br />S.S:C% <br />4.
