What steps should be taken to restore land after overburden is replaced?

To restore land after overburden is replaced, the first step is to properly grade and contour the land to ensure proper drainage and prevent erosion. Next, organic matter and nutrients should be added to improve soil fertility. Planting native vegetation helps stabilize the soil, promote biodiversity, and restore the ecosystem. Finally, ongoing monitoring and maintenance should be implemented to ensure the success of the restoration efforts.
