currently more mesic areas unless the area can be made wetter with more <br />water influx. Unfortunately, the road crossing, being fairly compacted, <br />probably blocks some of the water flow into this area. This would explain <br />the presence of rapidly expanding wetland vegetation in low azeas <br />upstream from the crossing, including occasional exposed water at a level <br />where water should probably not become exposed. The only way around <br />this problem is through complete replacement of the road crossing with a <br />road structure that allows easy flow of groundwater. <br />This road is primarily used for access to oil wells on the west side <br />of Coal Creek and was not constructed for the purposes of sand mining. At <br />this point in time, sand mining in Section 25 and 36 is not included in the <br />designed mining and reclamation plans due to the abundance of prairie <br />dogs in areas where there is abundant sand. Until the prairie dog issue can <br />be fully addressed, sand mining will not occur in that area and the use of <br />this road crossing for sand mining will not occur. Access to sand deposits <br />in Section 36 that are east of Coal Creek would not occur via this roadway, <br />but would occur along an older, partially overgrown road that crosses the <br />uplands to the east of Coal Creek. <br />H. If new areas were opened, show on a map where the stockpiles were placed. <br />REPORT: As has been done over the past two years, large specific stockpiles have <br />not been created. Instead the soil is simply pushed back as needed. Thus <br />the soil is always kept adjacent to the edge of the pit. Usually overburden <br />is either replaced into the pit when removed from another area or, if there <br />is no where to put it, the overburden is piled in a windrow between the <br />edge of the pit and the soil windrow. When the pit is expanded, the <br />existing soil plus the new soil is first stripped and pushed away from the <br />new area. Then the overburden is stripped and either placed in a backfill <br />area or is temporarily windrowed in a zone inside the soil windrows. For <br />small areas this works very well as the volume of soil removed is not <br />excessively great. Of course, for lazge areas (I S to 20 acres or more at a <br />time), none of which have been opened recently, stockpiling is more <br />efficient. All recent pits are of the small variety. These small pits access <br />isolated pockets of sand found through the use of patterned backhoe pits. <br />I. If an area has been completed with backfilling and/or topsoiling, submit the data which <br />shows the amount of deviation from the original topographic elevations to confirm that <br />the difference is not greater than 25 feet. <br />REPORT: The methodology proposed in the amendment has not yet been <br />implemented. At this point there are no data to be submitted. <br />Locations of weed control (treatments prior to mining, treatments prior to final <br />revegetation, and any other weed treatments), Include a summary of overall weed status <br />on the leased land, including land that has not been affected, i.e. the overall weed status <br />of the property in the opinion of the lessee. <br />Annual Status Report - 2005 for State Land Board July 15, 2005 Page 5 of 10 <br />
