MENZER QUARRY • Page 2 <br /> <br />In the course of these operations, the quarry area was slightly expanded on the north <br />and in the southwest corner, but all work is well within the permit boundciries. No <br />topsoil was saved, what little of it there was, and this is in accordance with the <br />approved plan for the quarry. <br />Rule 2.41(2): Locations and number of acres reclaimed for that year. <br />No land on this operation has yet been fully reclaimed. It has been decic;ed to bring <br />the terraces that were complete down on more steps inorder to increase thE• total tons <br />of material in the pit. <br />Rule 2.41(3): The location and number of acres in the various stages of reclamation <br />(backfilled, graded, topsoil replaced, revegetated). <br />No reclamation has been completed in this pit. <br />Rule 2.41(4): The species of vegetation planted, the locations and approximate dates <br />of planting. <br />No vegetation has been planted. None is planned to be planted for perhaps another year. <br />Because of the terrace pattern there is little danger erosion will cause any damages. <br />Rule 2.41(5): The type and approximate quantity of fertilizers, organic naterial, or <br />soil conditioners used and location of use. <br />None of these materials or treatments have been used because no revegetation has <br />occurred yet. <br />Rule 2.41(6): An appraisal of the success of reclamation efforts, and in the event of <br />failure of any efforts, a short narrative on the suspected or determined cause of <br />such failure. <br />It appears the physical success of using terraces has been good. No other reclamation <br />work has been done to assess. <br />Rule 2.41(7): Estimates of the location and number of acres to be affecte3 in the <br />coming year. <br />The plan called for 20 acres to be mined. This area will be mined in part this next <br />year. Including the processing area, 22.1 acres will be affected in this next year. <br />
