(1)(d) The current North Fork Smoky Hill River will remain nearby the affected area <br /> after reclamation. The river bank will not be disturbed, so no erosion issues <br /> should occur. The access road will become an abandoned trail over time if there is <br /> no future usage of the mining area. <br /> (1)(e) No features such as waste rock dumps, underground mine openings, ditches, <br /> sediment control facilities, buildings or any other features are planned to be <br /> established, so no reclamation treatment should be needed. <br /> Re-disturbance of previously disturbed areas, within the proposed mining <br /> operation, will occur. The abandoned trail that accessed the former Jolly Pit#2 <br /> (reclaimed& closed pit) runs centerline thru the proposed Jolly Pit#3 area. <br /> (2) Estimated costs to reclaim site: <br /> Shaping/Sloping 10 hours @ $115/hr. _$1150 <br /> Topsoil Application 5 hours @ $115/hr. _ $575 <br /> Seed/Fertilizer 7 lbs./acre (1 lb.=$9) _ $623.70 <br /> Mulch $55/ton x 2 tons =$110 <br /> Disc/Drilling $45/acre = $445.50 <br /> Operator 30 hours@ $25 = $750 <br /> TOTAL =$3654.20 <br /> Re-seeding (if needed) _ $1929.20 <br /> TOTAL = $5583.40 <br /> Site will be evaluated throughout mining activity to determine maximum <br /> disturbance. <br /> (2)(a) Equipment costs are included in the above estimate with such factors as wages, <br /> depreciation, fuel, lubricant, etc. The applicant owns all equipment needed for <br /> reclamation, which may include, but not limited to graders and dump trucks. <br /> Applicant charges $25/hour for operator for any outside labor completed by the <br /> county. <br /> (2)(b) No detoxification, building demolition, well sealing or stream channel <br /> reconstruction will be required. <br /> (2)(c) Estimate $3654.20 x 18.5% (overhead costs) _$676.03 <br /> Estimate $3654.20 x 5% (office administration costs) _ $182.71 <br /> Estimate $3654.20 + Overhead$676.03 +Administration$182.71 =$4512.94 <br />
