91 <br /> All pit disturbance in the shop area will occur within the Shavano <br /> and Disturbed Lands map units. There will be no disturbance in the <br /> Persayo map unit. <br /> RBCCblvO,TDED TOPSOIL SALVAGE <br /> 5810-Shavano. Salvage depths for the shop area soils will be ident- <br /> cial to those reccm-nended by Fly and Associates for the west pit area <br /> soils (see Tab 9, Table 2; Tab 9, Attachment 1, Section II; and <br /> Stripping Iscpach and Topsoil Stockpile Map, Exhibit 9-2) . Approxi- <br /> mately (20) inches of fair quality "A", "B", and "C" horizon surface <br /> and substratum soil will be salvaged. The major limitations for the <br /> soil are the fine textures (sandy clay loam to clay loam) and para- <br /> lithic contact with interbedded sandstones and shales. <br /> DL - Disturbed Lands Complex. The topsoil suitability rating for this <br /> map unit is poor or unsuitable due to prior mining disturbance limi- <br /> tations. No toposil salvage is recommended from this map unit. <br /> ANTICIPATED TOPSOIL BUDGET <br /> The following balances were calculated to determine the quantity of <br /> topsoil to be salvaged, the shop reclamation area that will require <br /> topsoil replacement and the anticipated revised Nucla Mine topsoil <br /> replacement depth. The total mine disturbance area that will require <br /> topsoil replacement is: <br /> 111.8 acres (Tab 9, Attachment 1, Section 3) <br /> + 29.6 acres (shop reclamation area) <br /> - 6.7 acres (shop area previously accounted for) <br /> - 4.2 acres (shop area soils not to be disturbed) <br /> 130.5 acres (Total) <br />
