3D adaptive clearing with a step

I am trying to use 3D adaptive clearing to rough a portion of my part out.  However I want the stock selection to include the pocket area (difference between the two pictures).  However I want the smaller pocket to be at the same level as the larger pocket. If it roughs down into that area i will not be able to effectively drill my relief hole before machining that smaller pocket with a subsequently smaller tool.

 

Is there an "Easy" way to do this, or do i have to model multiple parts and run multiple programs or splice them together?
