Material Source Reclamation Plans. On FLH projects, all government designated material sources,except established commercially operated sources, require rehabilitation under an approved reclamation plan.The reclamation plan shall set forth measures to return the land to the most appropriate function following useof the source. The site may be reclaimed in a series of stage reclamation efforts when several projectsdesignate the same source. Side borrow sites within the right-of-way do not require a reclamation plan.The reclamation plan provides that reclamation measures, particularly those relating to control of erosion, beconducted simultaneously with surface mining. When this is not possible, initiate reclamation measures at theearliest possible time after completion or abandonment of mining on any segment of the site area.9 - 124
