12/8/2014 State.co.us Executive Branch Mail - Re: Bowie No. 2 Mine C1996083 Midterm Review (MT4) Reclamation Cost Estimate <br />with drier gob. Nearly all of it was placed and compacted on top of the gob pile. <br />Right now, during the cold /wet season, gob is being hauled off the top of the pile to <br />be mixed with drier material in the center of the pile. <br />Like we discussed yesterday, the handling of the stockpiled gob is seasonal. It is <br />understood DRMS must evaluate the worst case scenario, however, if DRMS were <br />forced to step in and reclaim the pile, construction would occur during the <br />spring /summer /fall season, when the weather is more favorable for placement and <br />compaction. Therefore, assuming 50% will be hauled off of the top to be mixed with <br />drier gob, should be an adequate and conservative estimate of what would occur in <br />the field. <br />agree with your haul distance for both gob pile #2 and #3. Let me know if you <br />need anything else, and thanks! <br />Tamme Bishop, P.E. <br />JE Stover & Associates, Inc. <br />2352 N. 7th Street, Unit B <br />Grand Junction, CO 81501 <br />970- 245 -4101 <br />From: Burgmaier - DNR, Susan [ maiIto :susan.burgmaier @state.co.us] <br />Sent: Monday, October 06, 2014 8:50 AM <br />To: Bill Bear <br />Cc: Alysha Hernandez - DNR; Tamme Bishop; Jim Stover; Mary Rodriguez - DNR <br />Subject: Bowie No. 2 Mine C1996083 Midterm Review (MT4) <br />Bill - attached is the Division's Midterm Review findings document for MT4 for the Bowie No. 2 <br />Mine. Please note that there are required revisions to the permit that will need to be submitted on <br />or before December 2, 2014. <br />Also attached is the Division's reclamation cost estimate prepared for the midterm review. In <br />addition to increased equipment operating costs, there is a significant increase in the reclamation <br />liability because the cost estimate reflects the required rehandling of refuse material in the drying <br />areas. Please note that BRL is required to submit an additional $1,106,969.04 performance bond or <br />increase rider on or before November 5, 2014. <br />https: / /mail.googl e.com /m ai I /u/0 / ?ui =2 &i k= e29129fcb5 &view =pt &search= i nbox &th =14al c11 a2cd1646a &si m l =14a1 c11 a2cd1646a 2/3 <br />
