The report shall be submitted on the form incorporated by reference in Fl. Admin. Code R. 62C-16.0095, and shall include:
(a) A written description of all parcels disturbed by mining operations in the previous calendar year by section, township, range, and county. The actual number of acres shall be given for each section. A written description of all sites proposed to be disturbed by mining operations in the current year by section, township, range, and county. The anticipated number of acres shall be given for each section.
(b) An accounting of the materials encountered as described in Fl. Admin. Code R. 62C-16.0051(2)(b), and how they were handled in the previous calendar year. An estimate of materials anticipated to be encountered as described in Fl. Admin. Code R. 62C-16.0051(2)(b), and how they are proposed to be handled during the current year.
(c) A description of reclamation and restoration activities, including the acreage completed in each phase, carried out during the previous year for each reclamation parcel. A description of reclamation and restoration activities anticipated to be completed in each phase during the current year.
(d) An analysis that demonstrates compliance with the required rate of reclamation in Fl. Admin. Code R. 62C-16.0075 If the rate of mining in the previous year or the anticipated rate of mining in the current year is different from the rate in the conceptual plan, then the operator shall provide the revised rate in the Annual Mining and Reclamation report.
(e) A map which shows all lands disturbed by mining operations within the mine through the previous calendar year and land anticipated to be disturbed in the current year, and identified as follows, including acreages for each area:
1. Disturbed by mining operations, but not mined.
a. Prior to July 1, 1975.
b. From July 1 to December 31, 1975.
c. After 1975, specifying the year.
d. Proposed to be disturbed during the current year.

(f) A map which shows all reclamation parcels delineated after June 30, 1975, including their current status and acreage of reclamation, and the location of all permitted water discharge points, including their identification number and the permitting agency.
(g) A map which shows all sites used or under construction for waste disposal, or for the current year, sites anticipated to be used or under construction for waste disposal, including the type of waste, the acreage of each site, and the beginning and ending dates for disposal.
(h) Actual dates when mining, waste disposal, and reclamation and restoration activities were completed in the previous calendar year shall be provided for each reclamation parcel. Time schedule changes that are the result of changes in the rate of mining.
(i) Aerial photographs of all disturbed and mined lands, including the area within one mile of such lands within the mine boundary. The photographs shall be taken after December 1, but as close as reasonably possible, to December 31 of the previous calendar year.
