Planes hired by Vale will start seeding Sept. 22 more than500 acres of barren company land just north of Coniston targeted for reclamation.
The program, which started in 1990, has treated more than 5,800 acres of land to date, according to a press release from the company.
While every effort will be made not to fly over nearby residential areas, local residents may notice low-flying aircraft in this part of the city, a press release from the company stated.
Planes will depart from a private airstrip in Coniston and deposit payloads of agricultural limestone, grass seed and fertilizer on the designated treatment areas.
The work is expected to take 10 to 14 days to complete.
