EXHIBIT E 1 of 3 <br />;tom w. r+rrY: ?o ?1?rwR?, Co. Qt,Ot ptg 689fi871 <br />REVISED EXHIBIT E <br />RECLAMATION PLAN <br />1. Upon completion of the mining all Phases will have back slopes graded to 3H to 1V <br />(4:1). All areas will be reseeded in accordance with the recommendations from the <br />Natural Resource Conservation Service within 12 months after disturbance is complete. <br />2. (a). All phases will be reclaimed as rangeland. Rangeland is consistent with <br />surrounding land uses. The total area to be reclaimed for the each phases is as <br />follows: Phase I =19.57 acres, Phase II = 35.92 acres and Phase III = 33.89 <br />acres. The back slopes will be formed with earthmoving equipment. <br />(b). Post mining use will be rangeland, which is the current use of the <br />surrounding lands. <br />(c). Upon notification to the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety, the <br />reclamation process will be completed within a five year period. The mined area <br />will be reseeded with a seed mixture recommended by the Natural Resource <br />Conservation Service. The slopes will be graded for 31-1:1V slope to create the <br />final topography. No backfill material will be necessary when making the final <br />slope. A 31-11V slope in the pit will help combat erosion and silting of the affected <br />land. This will eliminate the need to stabilize any high walls. Once the grading is <br />complete the land will be prepared to be reclaimed. <br />(d). Back slopes will be formed during soil extraction. The reclamation <br />process will be done on any area within 12 months after disturbance is complete. <br />The seeding plan consists of several different types that exist on the land. The <br />Natural Resource Conservation Service has identified the vegetation that currently <br />exist on the property.
