RECLAMATION SCHEDULE <br />It is MCC's intention to complete reclamation when reasonably possible, weather <br />pernlitting, during the 2010 sununer season. Following the P & A of the NIDWs, final <br />reclamation of the pad sites and indicated spur roads would conunence. Final <br />reclamation will consist of restoring the pad to the approximate original contours (AOC) <br />and then pulling the topsoil pile back across to provide cover and grov~~th medium for the <br />USFS approved seed mix to be applied. Seeding and mulching would be followed by the <br />appropriate best management practices (BMP's) for that particular site for sedimentation <br />and erosion control. <br />RECLAMATION PLAN <br />MCC plans to reclaim the E 1 Panel roads and pads in 2010, or after they are no longer <br />needed. These locations are noted on the attached Map and were depicted in TR-111. <br />The following procedures will be utilized for final reclamation of these sites: <br />1. Remove all de-gas related equipment, housings and debris from the site. <br />2. Plug and Abandon the drill hole in accordance with approved procedures <br />(listed later in this AOP) and remove the well head. A backhoe and a <br />bulldozer will redistribute material on and around the drill pad to achieve <br />as closely as practicable the original contour of the site. The area will then <br />be ripped or scarified to leave an uneven surface. <br />Stored topsoil will be distributed as evenly as possible over the disturbed <br />pad area. <br />4. The entire drill pad area and reclaimed roads will be re-seeded using an <br />approved USFS seed mix or mixes as directed by the USFS. The <br />following seed mix is a seed mix that has been approved by the USFS for <br />drill sites on adjacent lands: <br />Mountain Shrub Community: <br />Species PLS lb/Acre <br />Mountain Brome 3 <br />Prairie Junegrass 3 <br />Western Wheatgrass 4 <br />Indian Ricegrass 2 <br />Sandburg Bluegrass ~ <br />B1ueBunch Wheatgrass <br />
