Soil Assessment: If the reclamation plan proposes revegetation, an assessment of existing soil conditions may be <br /> appropriate. A soil assessment may include: <br /> [ ] 1. a topsoil inventory map showing soil salvage depths to assess the volume of topsoil available, <br /> [ ] 2. a soil profile description describing soil suitable for reclamation, <br /> [ ] e 3. an analysis of soil texture,chemistry,pH,porosity, permeability,etc.,adequate to assess suitability for revegetation. <br /> E. VegetationMildlife: A discussion of existing plant and wildlife species is necessary to assess potential adverse <br /> environmental impacts. The discussion may include: <br /> [ ] 7. a description of the biological setting (refer to"A Guide to Wildlife Habitats of California"available from the <br /> California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection), <br /> [ ] 2. a map and description of vegetation types of affected areas,. <br /> [ ] 3. a list of all plants, large and small mammals,birds,amphibians,and fish known or suspected to be on-site(include <br /> the date of the survey which can be critical in determining the presence of seasonal species), <br /> [ ] 4. the identification of unique,critical,and important habitat types within the affected area, <br /> [ ] 5. a discussion of potential wildlife impacts,short-term and long-term,resulting from the mining operation; <br /> [ ] <br /> S. a list of the federal or state designated rare,threatened,or endangered species,or State Fish and Game species of <br /> special concern (ncluding invertebrates),if any,on or near the site a <br /> F. In-stream Mining: If mining will occur within an active stream channel,any or all of the following information may be <br /> needed to assess impacts of the proposed operation: <br /> [ j 1. evidence of contact with local flood control agency regarding possible permitting requirements, <br /> [ ] 2. identify other in-stream mining operations within five miles of the project site, (this information should be used by the <br /> lead agency in assessing the cumulative impact of mining on the river channel). <br /> [ ] 3. identify bridges, pipelines,cable crossings,etc.within one mile of the proposed operation, <br /> [ ] 4. show premining configuration of gravel_bar/stream bed on map or aerial photograph, <br /> [ ] 5, provide cross sections)of premising stream conditions which can be used to monitor future impacts of the training <br /> operation. <br /> [ ] 6. discuss seasonal flow conditions and gravel replenishment rates, <br /> 7. discuss Wild a0d Scenic River status, . . <br /> � ` d <br /> FIDEVSVC"anning Application Forms% Page 7 of 18 <br /> Quarry Excavation.doc.(Revised 04-13-09) — <br />
