<br /> RECLAMATION PLAN
<br /> CHECKLIST-CONTINUED
<br /> [X] 3. Describe how slopes will be stabilized to prevent failures/landslides, earth flows,falling rock, and erosion.
<br /> 11 4. Specify slope design calculations including the factor of safety.
<br /> I I D. Impoundments: Describe how impoundments will be reclaimed (e.g., regraded, dewatered, capped, revegetated,
<br /> removed, etc.).
<br /> IXI E. Drainage: Describe provisions for natural drainage and how erosion of disturbed land and sedimentation will be
<br /> controlled during excavation and after final reclamation (e.g., revegetation, rip rap,sedimentation basins, berms,ditches,
<br /> water bars, silt screens regrading, etc.).
<br /> 1X] F. Disposition of Old Equipment: Discuss the disposition of equipment, buildings,structures, etc.
<br /> G. Revegetation:
<br /> [X] 1. Explain topsoil(or soil substitute)redistribution methods, including volumes of materials to be redistributed,
<br /> equipment and methods for transport, methods for preventing over compaction,and schedule for replacement. The
<br /> explanation may include:
<br /> 1 a. the average thickness of replaced topsoil on the mine site;
<br /> � ) b. tests that will be run to determine whether soil or mine wastes need soil amendments to promote the support
<br /> plant growth'
<br /> � )
<br /> C. methods to be used to protect redistributed topsoil (or soil substitute)from wind and water erosion before and
<br /> after seeding and planting.
<br /> L l 2. Explain the types and amounts of fertilizers, mulch, soil stabilizers, lime,or other materials that will be used in
<br /> revegetation and indicate when they will be applied.
<br /> l 3. Provide a planting (landscape)plan. The plan may include:
<br /> l a. how the site will be prepared for planting (e.g., ripping, disking, and incorporation of soil additives),
<br /> l b. a list of the species (include scientific names)to be planted,
<br /> c. the type of plant material to be used (e.g.,seeds, cuttings,container, plugs),
<br /> l d. the density or rate of planting (e.g_, pounds/acre,cuttings on 5 foot centers,etc.),
<br /> l e. a revegetation map indicating species and location.
<br /> L ] 4. Describe what planting method(s)will be used (e.g., hydroseeding, hand planting,seed drill, etc.).
<br /> 5. Discuss when(during which month(s))planting will take place and the relationship between timing and the success
<br /> of the revegetation plan.
<br /> � ) 6. Describe how the plants will be protected from predation and disturbance(e.g.,fencing,signs, etc.).
<br /> 7. Irrigation: If irrigation is proposed,then discuss:
<br /> l a. the kind of irrigation system that will be used to water the plants;
<br /> 1 b. the water source and the water quality of that source;
