$ackfilling and Soil Stabilization <br />• All areas affected by the surface facilities within the permit area <br />will be returned to a final surface configuration that closely <br />resembles the land surface prior to mining. This configuration <br />will conform to the drainage pattern of the surrounding terrain. <br />The pre-mining topography is shown on the Vegetation Map (Map 3). <br />The anticipated post-mining topography is shown on the Existing And <br />Final Contours And Sections Map (Map 12). Post-mining cross <br />sections are also shown on (Map 12). <br />Because the mining operation will be on-going for many years, as <br />much reclamation work as practical will be implemented during the <br />initial construction. The Operator will conduct construction and <br />mining in a manner that minimizes erosion and water pollution. <br />Sedimentation control structures such as a pond and diversion ditch <br />will be built prior to the other facilities. At the conclusion of <br />mining, all surface facilities and structures, except the office, <br />will be removed and the area will be backfilled or graded. <br />• The final grading in all areas before topsoil placement will be <br />done along the contour, unless site specific slope conditions would <br />cause a safety hazard to the operator. The final surface <br />configuration will approximate the overall pre-mining topography. <br />Following grading, all disturbed areas will blend in with the <br />undisturbed areas outside the limit of the disturbed area. <br />Portal Areas. Because the planned location for the Bear No. 3 <br />Portals has been previously affected by past mining, only slight <br />alterations will be necessary by the Operator in order to prepare <br />the site for planned mining. <br />l J <br />2.05-33 Rev. 04-30-93 <br /> <br />
