Exhibit D — Reclamation Plan. Cooley would like to propose a change to the initial submission <br />of the recharge ponds in -slope final gradient from a 2:1 slope to a 3:1 slope in the reclamation <br />plan. The recharge berms will be constructed 2 -3' above the existing natural ground. The <br />outside slope final gradient will be 3:1, and the berm will be constructed at a width of 6 -8'. <br />Stockpiled fill from stripping site and available soils from berm construction will be used to <br />construct slopes. Berms will be constructed using dozers. The bottom of the recharge pond <br />will be leveled and prepped with a dozer, for water recharge using a dozer. <br />The berms and outside slopes of the Pepper Recharge Pond will be broadcast seeded and <br />harrowed with a dryland pasture mix. We anticipate area to reseed to be one (1) acre. We <br />propose to reseed at a rate of 15 Ibs /acre at a cost of $ 2.10/Ib. I previously submitted a letter <br />from Rio Grande Commodities and a "Sharp's Dryland Pasture Mix" label. <br />Other than spring surface water for recharge, there will not be a source of irrigation, <br />therefore, we do not propose to mulch or fertilize the dryland seeded area of the Pepper Pit. <br />Cooley's proposed reclamation plan will begin by shaping berms and slopes with a dozer. <br />Berm will be constructed to an approximate height of 2' -3' above existing natural ground. <br />The inside and outside slopes will be constructed with a final gradient of 3:1. The width of <br />the berm will be constructed 6 -8' wide. <br />The bottom of the recharge pond will be flattened, with a dozer, and leveled for surface <br />water recharge. <br />Topsoil stockpiled from scarifying site, will be placed on the entire slopes of the pond. <br />Dryland pasture mix will be broadcast and harrowed. <br />Site grading around non - excavated area surrounding pond. <br />Upon notice of required financial warranty, I shall submit to Barbara Coria, at the Division <br />Denver office, a business check for said amount and with fully- executed financial warranty. <br />I will file this document and the Rio Grande Commodities specifications of Dryland Pasture <br />Mix and the product label with the Rio Grande Clerk and Recorder and emailed fully executed <br />receipt verification to your email address. These are the only two documents that have not <br />been filed with the clerk. <br />Please contact us with any questions you may have. <br />Sincerely, <br />C 1 ar21-14"--d-' <br />Donna Cooley <br />
