NEWMONT <br /> GOLDCORP. <br /> Please see the attached revised Misc. Unit Cost Sheet (Attachment 1). CC&V <br /> will utilize the costs provided by DRMS for calculating seeding going <br /> forward. <br /> 3. The revegetation unit costs did not include costs for seedbed preparation, <br /> fertilization and mulching. Please provide unit costs for these activities if they are <br /> included in the approved reclamation plan. <br /> CC&V is utilizing a fertilizer cost of $236 an acre, straw mulch cost of $320 <br /> an acre, and an application cost of $500 an acre. <br /> CC&V calculates seedbed preparation based on Caterpillar handbook <br /> production data for a piece of scarifying equipment (dozer or grader), as <br /> detailed in Attachment 2. Scarifying costs vary depending on the task and <br /> topsoil conditions in each specific area. <br /> 4. The cost sheets provided with TR115 indicate unit rates and hourly production <br /> rates were derived from 2005/2006 RSMeans sources and it appears the "Means <br /> Number" referenced are outdated. Please update the unit costs on these tables <br /> using the most current RSMeans unit rates and their associated reference number. <br /> The cost provided in CC&V's June 27, 2019 submission of TR 115 are a <br /> hybrid using 2005/2006 RSMeans productive data and 2018 labor and <br /> equipment costs. CC&V and all of Newmont Goldcorp utilize the Standard <br /> Reclamation Cost Estimator (SRCE) for closure cost calculations; which <br /> does not allow for adjustments to unit costs. As discussed via phone with <br /> DRMS on September 23, 2019, CC&V will utilize the current RSMeans <br /> productivity costs for any closure cost estimates associated with <br /> addendums to this TR. <br /> Should you require further information, please do not hesitate to contact Katie Blake via <br /> phone or email at 719.689.4048 and Katie.Blake©newmont.com, or me at 719.689.4042 <br /> and Justin.Raglin(a�newmont.com. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> 4 <br /> Justin Raglin <br /> Senior Environmental Manager <br /> Cripple Creek & Victor Mine <br /> JR/kb <br /> 2 <br />
