Site Shutdown and Restoration 



Shutdown. 



S-84P Should a lease prove not to contain commercial reserves, the 

 boards will be removed and the road base backfilled to return 

 the marsh site to its original state and surface contours. 



S-85P Whenever a facility is partially shut down, active areas such 

 as the road and landing will be reduced and improved. The 

 inactive fringe areas shall be restored as soon as possible. 



S-86P In the event all or a portion of the facilities are removed from 

 the refuge as the result of the termination of operations or 

 for other reasons, the permittee shall completely remove all 

 spoil and ring levees, completely backfill or plug all canals 

 and ditches, and provide regular gaps in all levees not removed, 

 as specified by the land manager. 



Restoration. 



S-87P Prior to initiating any extensive restoration field work, the 



permittee shall meet with the land manager and provide specifica- 

 tions of the operation including, but not limited to: (1) maps 

 showing features to be restored, points of alterations, and 

 access routes; (2) information concerning sizes, types, and 

 numbers of equipment to be used; and (3) a time schedule. The 

 permittee shall agree to reasonable modifications in order to 

 minimize the disturbance of desirable water flows, wildlife con- 

 centrations, or other desirable ecological features. All 

 activities shall be confined to those areas as finalized on the 

 attached maps.
