Home My WebLink About20120124 • SOILS INFORMATION EXHIBIT I The soil survey performed by the NRCS covers the permit area. The soils mapping is shown on Map C-1. The associated soils type descriptions are enclosed in this exhibit. The primary soils of the site are: 1 - Altvan fine sandy loam, 0-6 percent slopes 12 - Bankard loamy fine sand, 0 to 3 percent slopes 29—Haverson loam, 0 to 3 percent slopes Topsoil will be used to reclaim as it is stripped, with the exception of the initial stockpile which will be used for final reclamation. As mining progresses and overburden is encountered, it too will be used immediately for reclamation. By reclaiming while mining, all soil will be salvaged as best as possible. • All topsoil piles will be seeded within a month after they are created with the same rangeland mix shown in the reclamation plan. It is expected that approximately 0-6 inches of strippable topsoil will be available from the disturbed areas. Since there was pre-law mining conducted within Mining Area 3, there is little topsoil available within Mining Area 3. Overburden will be placed as a subsoil and topsoil salvaged within Mining Area 1 and 2 with be distributed across all Mining Areas. • 2012-0124 Lone Tree Pit, June 2010 I-1 0 iV 2 O i i z O. i If R m 0 U 2 .5 k I 2 I 4 2 § \ \ c ( k 7 ■ k ■ § @ @ 2 8 § • 0 6 k co es § F 2 co ea 4) I e 8 8 8 f 8 8 8 \ k § @ i 6.
