<br />NOTES:
<br />1.THIS 2009 TECHNICAL REVISION TO PERMIT NO. M- 1978 -349 REQUESTS THE PERMIT TO BE
<br />AMENDED TO ALLOW MINING OF ONE ACTIVE CELL INSTEAD OF THE ORIGINALLY PERMITTED
<br />MULTIPLE CELLS. ALL OTHER APPROVED PERMIT REQUIREMENTS AND MINING RELATED PRACTICES
<br />INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, OPERATING EQUIPMENT, STRUCTURE LOCATIONS, AND UTILITY
<br />LINES WILL REMAIN THE SAME AS THE APPROVED PERMIT NO. M- 1978 -349.
<br />2.THIS PLAN SHALL BE IMPLEMENTED PROGRESSIVELY OVER THE COURSE OF MINING ACTIVITY.
<br />UPON COMMENCEMENT OF COMMERCIAL PRODUCTION, OVERBURDEN AND PROCESSING FINES
<br />WILL BE TRANSFERRED FROM AREAS SUBJECT TO NEW MINING (E.G., SOIL STRIPPING AND
<br />SALVAGE) TO DEPLETED RESOURCE (E.G., EXPOSED PIT FLOOR) AREAS AS SOON AS
<br />PRACTICABLE. THE OPERATOR SHALL ASPIRE TO MINIMIZE OUTSTANDING RECLAMATION LIABILITY
<br />AT ALL TIMES.
<br />& TOPSOIL WILL BE RECOVERED AND RESPREAD TO A UNIFORM AVERAGE DEPTH. RECOVERY AND
<br />STOCKPILING WILL INCLUDE ALL AVAILABLE TOPSOIL.
<br />4.THE OPERATOR WILL APPLY LONG -FIBER STRAW (EG., WHEAT OR OAT STRAW) AT A RATE OF
<br />1 -1/2 TONS PER ACRE. STRAW WILL BE HAND SPREAD, THEN CRIMPED MECHANICALLY USING
<br />EITHER A DISC OR TREAD TRACKING. TACKIFIER MAY BE USED AT THE OPTION OF THE
<br />OPERATOR.
<br />5.ALL SUBSTITUTIONS SHALL BE APPROVED BY THE LAND PLANNER, (BANKS & GESSO, LLC,
<br />(303) 274 -4277) OR LAND OWNER.
<br />6.RECLAMATION IS TO STANDARDS FOR RANGELAND POST- MINING USE, ALL DISTURBED AREAS
<br />INSIDE RECLAMATION PERMIT BOUNDARY NOT OTHERWISE IDENTIFIED FOR RECLAMATION
<br />TREATMENT SHALL BE RESEEDED WITH NATIVE GRASSES SUITABLE FOR RANGELAND
<br />RESTORATION.
<br />TALL VEGETATION WILL BE MAINTAINED IN NEAT, WEED FREE CONDITION.
<br />& NO PART OF THIS PLAN IS ANTICIPATED TO CONTAIN PUBLIC USES.
<br />9.RECLAMATION WILL BE CONCURRENT WITH MINING, WITH FLEXIBILITY OVER FIVE TO TEN YEARS.
<br />10.GRADING. SIDE SLOPES AS SHOWN REPRESENT A CONSERVATIVE BACKFILL PLAN. ADDITIONAL
<br />BACKFILL MAY BE UTILIZED TO REDUCE S1DE -SLOPE GRADIENTS AND / OR RAISE RECLAIMED
<br />FLOOR ELEVATION. USE OF INERT MATERIAL FROM OFF -SITE, INCLUDING ADJACENT AREAS
<br />UNDER OPERATOR'S COMMON CONTROL, IS SUBJECT TO NOTIFICATION PURSUANT TO MLRB
<br />RULES.
<br />ll.GROUNDWATER WILL RE -ENTER AND INUNDATE THE SITE AT THE CESSATION OF DEWATERING.
<br />NORMAL WATER LEVEL IS ANTICIPATED AT THE WESTERLY (DOWN GRADIENT) EXISTING WATER
<br />TABLE (APPROXIMATELY CONTOUR 5320).
<br />12.AS NOTED IN THE NARRATIVE OF THIS TECHNICAL REVISION, ADDITIONAL BACKFILL MAY BE
<br />ALLOWED IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 3.1.9(5). THE RECLAMATION PLAN AS REVISED WILL
<br />ACCOMMODATE BACKFILL MATERIAL TO EXISTING GRADES, MATCHING CONTOURS AT THE LIMIT
<br />OF MINING, OR LEAVING FINAL GRADES AT AN INTERMEDIATE ELEVATION.
