EXHIBIT E 2 of 3 <br />7040 W. Hwy. 160 Alamom Ga. 81101 (718) 56&6571 <br />The vegetation and seeding rates for both soil types are the same and is as <br />follows: <br />SPECIES RATE (PLS/AC) <br />Indian Ricegrass 2.40 <br />Thickspike Wheatgrass 1.00 <br />Western Wheatgrass 3.20 <br />Blue Grama 0.60 <br />Sand Dropseed 0.03 <br />Bottlebrush Squirreltail 0.90 <br />Louisiana Sage 0.60 <br />Four Wing Saltbush 0.40 <br />The availability of the seed is good. All seed types except Louisiana Sage are <br />native to the San Luis Valley. Fringed Sage will be substituted in the seed mixture <br />for the Louisiana Sage <br />It will take one to two days to plant the seed. The method of seeding will be <br />drilling or broadcasting the seed. The best time to plant will be from July 15 to <br />August 1, or after November 1. No mulch or fertilizer will used for planting the <br />new seed. No trees or shrubs will be planted. <br />(e) When side slopes are shaped and two to three acres of the pit floor are <br />available, reclamation will begin. <br />(i). As mining progresses the side slopes will be formed. Topsoil will be <br />redistributed along 3H:1 V side slopes after the initial pit development which <br />would be about two years. Topsoil will be spread a minimum of once every <br />two years to affected areas. <br />(ii). The size of Phase IV reclamation will be 10.3 acres, Phase V <br />will be 10.3 acres, Phase VI will be 4.4 acres and Phase VII will be 10.2 <br />acres. <br />(iii). The sequence of reclamation will be: <br />1. Lay slopes back during extraction at a 31-11:11V slope. <br />2. Distribute topsoil within two years <br />3. Seed following overburden and topsoil distribution once a <br />sizeable area of two to three acres is ready for seed.
