RECLAMATION <br /> The areas to be disturbed in the gravel extraction <br /> operation are areas which were previously disturbed in <br /> historic or recent mining activities. All areas which <br /> will potentially be impacted by gravel screening <br /> currently support no vegetation and have no topsoil <br /> cover . Therefore, no soil can be salvaged , and the <br /> oversized and fine materials to be replaced in the <br /> borrow areas cannot be revegetated as there will be no <br /> suitable plant growth media. <br /> Where it may be possible to obtain material suit- <br /> able for plant growth , the procedures in Exhibit E - <br /> Reclamation Plan of the Consolidated Permit (112) <br /> Application for the Sunnyside Mine and Mill as amended <br /> and approved (p . E:3 through E:5) - will be followed . <br /> Final reclamation of the areas to be impacted by gravel <br /> extraction will probably be involved in the ultimate <br /> reclamation plan for Lake Emma , and as such , reclama- <br /> tion efforts in October and November of 1987 for the <br /> immediate purposes of this revision will be temporary <br /> in nature to assure public safety, minimize erosion to <br /> the site and prevent off-site deposition of eroded <br /> sediments. <br /> Drill sites will be reclaimed by pushing topsoil , <br /> removed from the individual sites, back over the dis- <br /> -5- <br />
