(h) name and describe the intended use of all expected incidental products to be mined /extracted by the <br />proposed operation. <br />EXHIBIT E - Reclamation Plan (Rule 6.4.5): (1) In preparing the Reclamation Plan, you should be specific in <br />terms of addressing such items as final grading (including drainage), seeding, fertilizing, revegetation (trees, <br />shrubs, etc.), and topsoiling. You are encouraged to allow flexibility in your plans by committing to ranges of <br />numbers (e.g., 6 " -12" of topsoil) rather than specific figures. <br />(2) The Reclamation Plan shall include provisions for, or satisfactory explanation of, all general <br />requirements for the type of reclamation proposed to be implemented by you. Reclamation shall be <br />required on all the affected land. The Reclamation Plans shall include: <br />(a) A description of the type(s) of reclamation you propose to achieve in the reclamation of the <br />affected land, why each was chosen, the amount of acreage accorded to each, and a general <br />discussion of methods of reclamation as related to the mechanics of earthmoving; <br />(b) A comparison of the proposed post- mining land use to other land uses in the vicinity and to <br />adopted state and local land use plans and programs. In those instances where the <br />post- mining land use is for industrial, residential, or commercial purposes and such use is not <br />reasonably assured, a plan for revegetation shall be submitted. Appropriate evidence <br />supporting such reasonable assurance shall be submitted; <br />(c) A description of how the Reclamation Plan will be implemented to meet each applicable <br />requirement of Section 3.1; <br />(d) Where applicable, plans for topsoil segregation, preservation, and replacement; for <br />stabilization, compaction, and grading of spoil; and for revegetation. The revegetation plan <br />shall contain a list of the preferred species of grass, legumes, forbs, shrubs or trees to be <br />planted, the method and rates of seeding and planting, the estimated availability of viable <br />seeds in sufficient quantities of the species proposed to be used, and the proposed time of <br />seeding and planting; <br />(e) A plan or schedule indicating how and when reclamation will be implemented. Such plan or <br />schedule shall not be tied to any specific date but shall be tied to implementation or <br />completion of different stages of the mining operation as described in Subparagraph <br />6.4.4(1)(e). The plan or schedule shall include: <br />(i) An estimate of the periods of time which will be required for the various stages or <br />phases of reclamation; <br />(ii) A description of the size and location of each area to be reclaimed during each phase; <br />and <br />(iii) An outline of the sequence in which each stage or phase of reclamation will be carried <br />out. <br />(The schedule need not be separate and distinct from the Reclamation Plan, but may be incorporated therein.) <br />(f) A description of each of the following: <br />
