3 • • <br />VI. Pieper Pit (Permit No. M-85-122) <br />A. Reclamation plan: The county originally submitted a Reclamation <br />Plan providing that gravel was to be removed only from the atreambed and <br />the adjoining gravel deposits. After mining 1s complete, the county will <br />smooth and level the mined area and it is anticipated that there will be a <br />substantial amount of gravel remaining. All banks will be sloped so that <br />they are no steeper than 8:1. The mined area that is outside of the stream <br />channel will be prepared for a cover crop of sorghum and will be seeded as <br />follows: <br />Blue grams 1.OlF pla/ac. <br />Western Wheatgrass S.SU pls/ac. <br />Sideoats grams 3.OIl ple/ac, <br />Fertilizer and mulch will be used to enhance seedbed productivity to <br />the extent that it is necessary. <br />To date, the county as sloped the mined areas of the channel and have <br />levelled the channel. The mined area ie strictly within the confines of the <br />stream channel and it has been partially reclaimed by natural erosion. <br />There are no stockpiles of topsoil and no topsoil hae been disturbed. <br />Gravel pit active. <br />All reclamation proposed per recommendations of local Soil <br />Conservation Service. <br />B. Attached hereto is a map delineating the gravel pit, prepared by <br />Ron Sidebottom, a draftsman, from Anton, Colorado, <br />
