The current <br /> bond was done when backfilling was still required and included <br /> loading and hauling, compacting and final grading for backfill <br /> material to finish filling the site that is no longer needed. <br /> APPROVED SEED MIX <br /> Species Lbs.

And that all backfilling, and compacting <br /> is complete and the side slopes have been graded 3h to lv or <br /> less on all but 210 feet that is sloped 2h to lv. Final grading <br /> on this unfinished slope area will require moving 3 . 13 cu-yds/lft <br /> or 645 cubic yards (slope height 13 feet average) . Of the 13 . 0 <br /> acres disturbed on the mine 2 . 35 acres is sloped and recoiled and <br /> 0 . 88 acres has been seeded.
