MATERIAL SITE RECLAMATION PLAN OR
LETTER OF INTENT/ANNUAL RECLAMATION STATEMENT
AS 27.19.030 – 27.19.050
In accordance with Alaska Statute 27.19, reclamation is required of all mining operations, including sand and gravel extraction. Completion of this form will meet the law's requirements for a reclamation plan (see below for filing requirements; due date: at least 45 days before mining is proposed to begin; requires approval by the Division of Mining, Land and Water). Completion of this form will also serve as a letter of intent for operations exempt from the plan requirement (due date: before mining
begins). No approval is required for a letter of intent, but a miner who files a letter of intent must, before December 31, file an annual reclamation statement (Section 8 of this form).
Check applicable box:
A.. RECLAMATION PLAN (REQUIRED if the operation will disturb five or more acres this year, OR 50,000 cubic yards, OR if the operation has a cumulative disturbed area of five or more acres)
B. RECLAMATION
C. LETTER OF INTENT (less than five acres to be disturbed AND less than 50,000 cubic yards AND less than five acres unreclaimed area) NOTE: A miner who files a letter of intent is also required to file an annual reclamation statement at the end of the year.

b.Provide a list of equipment (type and quantity) to be used during the reclamation operation.
c.A time schedule of reclamation measures shall be included as part of the plan.
The following measures must be considered in preparing and implementing the reclamation plan. Please mark those measures appropriate to your reclamation activity:
Topsoil that is not promptly redistributed to an area being reclaimed will be separated and stockpiled for future use. This material will be protected from erosion and contamination by acidic or toxic materials and preserved in a condition suitable for later use.
The area will be backfilled, graded and recontoured using strippings, overburden, and topsoil to a condition that allows for the reestablishment of renewable resources on the site within a reasonable period of time. It will be stabilized to a condition that will allow sufficient moisture to be retained for natural revegetation.
Stockpiled topsoil will be spread over the reclaimed area to promote natural plant growth that can reasonably be expected to revegetate the area within five years.
Stream channel diversions will be relocated to a stable location in the flood plain.
Exploration trenches or pits will be backfilled. Brush piles, vegetation, topsoil, and other organics will be spread on the backfilled surface to inhibit erosion and promote natural revegetation.
All buildings and structures constructed, used, or improved on land owned by the State of Alaska will be removed, dismantled, or otherwise properly disposed of at the completion of the mining operation.
Any roads, airstrips or other facilities constructed to provide access to the mining operation shall be reclaimed (unless otherwise authorized) and included in the reclamation plan.
Peat and topsoil mine operations shall ensure a minimum of two inches of suitable growing medium is left or replaced on the site upon completion of the reclamation activity.
If extraction occurs within a flood plain, the reclamation activity shall reestablish a stable bed and bank profile such that river currents will not be altered and erosion and deposition patterns will not change.
NOTE: If you propose to use reclamation measures other than those shown above, or if the private landowner or public land manager of the site requires you to use stricter reclamation measures than those shown above, attach a list of those measures to this plan.
