10. Post -Mine Land Use Breakdown <br />The reclamation plan will create lakes with minor wetland fringes for wildlife habitat, which is <br />the primary post mining land use. Two lakes will be created which will be interconnected <br />through a pair of 24" diameter culverts. Map C -3 shows cross sections of the site for current, <br />mining and reclamation cases. <br />The breakdown of post- mining land use is as follows: <br />- lake surface: 56.6 acres <br />- wetlands: 1.22 acres <br />- dryland flat and slope areas: 25.88 acres <br />- miscellaneous undisturbed easements, etc. 5.5 acres <br />Total area: 89.2 acres <br />The North Lake will have an approximate surface area of 41.2 acres and the Southeast Lake will <br />have an approximate surface area of 15.4 acres. The lake depths will vary from approximately <br />20 -32 feet depending upon the location within the excavation. <br />The calculation of the wetland fringe area is based on a width of 6 feet of wetlands over a linear <br />distance of 8840 feet, which is an area of 1.22 acres. <br />Otter Creek Pit December 12 E - <br />
