IN Phase 1 21.77 acres ± is Plant Site, 7 . 97 acres ± is undisturbed that will become parts of Lakes 4 and 5 (dark green) , and 5. 48 acres ± that is sod farm. We have topsoil was stockpiled in various areas around the site for use when reclamation begins (pink) . (2) No reclamation was required this year. Backfilling is continuing in the WETLAND DEVELOPMENT AREA in the north lake (aqua) . We have approximately 10. 56 acres filled in this area at this time. We have completed sloping along the river on 1 . 11 acres ± (orange) on the south lake and all of the north, west and south shores in Phase 1. The list below shows the total acres under various stages of reclamation. We have approximately 22 , 300 YD3 of soil stockpiled along the lake shore south of the river. We estimate 7, 000 YD3 will be needed for resoiling purposes. Most of the reclamation in the mined areas north of the river is complete. Only the east shore of Lake 1 is left to complete at this time. This can not be done until the plant site areas is mined because we are still working in this area. a. Backfilled: 10. 56 ac. (tan/aqua) b. Graded: 18 . 56 ac. C. Seeded: 17 . 45 ac. (green) e. Lake Surface: 38 . 38 ac. (blue) d. Topsoil Replaced: 17 . 45 ac. f. Sod farm 5. 48 ac. (light green) g. Ave. topsoil depth 12 . 00 in. (3) Mining will continue in the Lake 2 area we will be stripping ahead of mining. We will continue to mine towards the south property line on the west side of the site. We expect to mine 15. 88 acres ± this year in that area (yellow) , if additional area is needed we will start mining the area stripped (rust) . (4) Backfilling will continue in the WETLANDS DEVELOPMENT AREA. We will continue to monitor the seeded area around Lake ,#1. It appears to be successful but we will continue to monitor its growth. No other revegetation is required at this time. As in the past, we will seed an area when the seedbed prepara- tion is complete and there is no danger it will be disturbed by operations in the pit. Once we have finished mining along the river the north shore slopes will be established and graded. The soil we have stored along that side will be use to resoil the slopes.
