Additional details of the Robinson Tailings Impoundment and tree planting projects are <br />found in the attached project reports including a portion of the construction report <br />(Projects #1, #2, and #3). Maps 1 and 2 aze referenced in these reports, and color photos <br />are provided. <br />1.2 Mayflower Road Cut Repair <br />A small badly eroded and very steep azea along the Mayflower Tailings Impoundment <br />service road was repaired during 2005. This highly visible side-slope area was stabilized, <br />an up-slope interceptor ditch was constructed, and seeding and transplanting completed. <br />A detailed reportincluding project photographsis attached. <br />1.3 Visual Enhancement Reclamation <br />The visual enhancement reclamation program conducted under TR-11 reclaimed or <br />partially reclaimed ten smaller mine related disturbances that were within the public <br />view-shed and were aesthetically unattractive. These azeas included slope <br />reconfigurations and reclamation within the Storke Yazd area and on E-Dump and F- <br />Dump. F-Dump, in particular, was a highly visible project that reduced the slope from <br />approximately 1:1,5 to approximately 2.5:1 and shallower by moving approximately <br />500,000 cubic yards of material. <br />Approximately 100 acres from the Storke Yard to the Lime Station at Tenmile Tailings <br />Impoundment were reclaimed in this program. A report from Michael D. Ellis regazding <br />these projects is attached as aze a number of azea specific photographs. <br />1.4 Mayflower Decant Road <br />Anew decant system is scheduled for construction installation along the west side of the <br />Mayflower Tailings Impoundment in 2006. The decant system modification is <br />considered an EPF, and accordingly, relevant documents were submitted to DMG in <br />February 2006. However, the road to the decants was upgraded in 2005 to allow for the <br />heavy equipment necessary to construct the decant. Once completed, the 1.39 acres of <br />roadway were stabilized, fertilized, seeded with the Climax seed mix, and hydromulched. <br />This small project is noted on Map 1 as an insert. <br />2.0 Other Activities <br />2.1 Biosolids <br />Production of Class A compost and Class B biosolids at the biosolids facility on the <br />Robinson Tailings Impoundment continued in 2005 as in the past. Production was <br />ramped up in 2005 to meet the demands of 2005 reclamation projects. Applications were <br />done by dozer push and by aerial spreading (using a truck mounted blower). The annual <br />biosolids permit report is attached. <br />
