Material will be extracted to a false pit floor. Mining <br />will progress across the bonded area, conveying raw material to the processing area in Parcels 1, 2 and 3 <br />of Phase I. Naturals and fines may be stockpiled in the pit for use in concurrent reclamation. <br />Exhibit E: Reclamation Plan <br />Stonewall Springs Quarry LLC, owner, intends to construct water storage reservoirs, and wetlands as <br />final reclamation. The 448 acre permitted area is divided into three phases with final reclamation <br />described in Table 1. Approximately 75 acres make up the Riparian Area and Nyberg Road buffer zone <br />which will remain undisturbed during the life of the mine. <br />Phase I <br />Parcels 1, 2 and 3 are the processing area, product stockpile area and sedimentation pond which will <br />remain during mining. Final reclamation is proposed as wetlands with interim reclamation as open space. <br />To achieve interim reclamation, the area will be backfilled to a minimum of three feet above static <br />groundwater level with sides sloped no steeper the 3H:1V, blending with surrounding topography. The <br />area will be seeded with the previously approved seed mix provided in Table 2 and mulched with two <br />tons /acre of straw, crimping the straw into the soil. Reclamation of Parcels 1, 2 and 3 is not anticipated <br />until all phases are mined out approximately 15 years. <br />Crqj\V /iirrorqjMq ee nnLcal I //,\ I I LcerrnaLfl\V /ess Ilnc, <br />1107 Main Street, Canon City, CO 81212 <br />www.envalternatives.com - e -mail: eai @bresnan.net <br />Phone: 719 - 275 -8951 - Fax: 719 - 275 -1715 <br />
