( 1 ) At the current time we have 99 .46 acres ± disturbed in the pit. This entire disturbed area has been stripped of topsoil and the topsoil was stockpiled around the perimeter of the site for use in reclamation.

The area was graded, shaped and resoiled in the fall of 1992, additional shaping was completed this year. That area will be seeded this spring when weather permits . Once mining is completed along the north shore those slopes will be created, this should begin some time this year .
