L-1 <br /> EXHIBIT L <br /> RECLAMATION COSTS <br /> Per Rule 6.4.12—Reclamation Costs: <br /> (1) all information necessary to calculate the costs of reclamation must be submitted and broken down <br /> into the various major phases of reclamation. The information provided by the Operator/Applicant must <br /> be sufficient to calculate the costs of reclamation that would be incurred by the state;and, <br /> (2) the Office may request the Operator/Applicant to provide additional, reasonable data to substantiate <br /> said Operator/Applicant's estimate of the cost of reclamation for all Affected Lands. <br /> CSC herein provides the following discussion pertaining to the respective Reclamation Cost components, <br /> along with Table L-1: Reclamation Cost Estimate which details, in a tabulated format, the respective <br /> reclamation phases, the therein contained individual component(direct) costs, and a totalization of those <br /> direct costs. CSC has then added the following indirect costs to the totalized direct cost, to include the <br /> following: <br /> • Liability Insurance(2%of Direct Cost Total) <br /> • Performance Bond(1.05%of Direct Cost Total) <br /> • Job Superintendent($8,750/month,inclusive of 40%benefits burden—for 6-month duration) <br /> • Contractor Profit(10%of Direct Cost Total) <br /> • Engineering and Bid Preparation(4.25%of Direct Cost Total) <br /> • Reclamation Management and Administration(5%of Direct Cost Total) <br /> As detailed in Exhibit D: Mining Plan and Exhibit E: Reclamation Plan, the Keenesburg No. 2 Mine <br /> will employ "concurrent reclamation" throughout the life-of-mine, thus minimizing outstanding <br /> reclamation obligations at the time of closure. In addition to the concurrent reclamation activities associated <br /> with annual mine blocks, CSC has also employed"advance reclamation"of certain features (as described <br /> below). <br /> Thus,the Table L-1: Reclamation Cost Estimate addresses/includes all activities associated with closure <br /> and reclamation of probable "maximum exposure" conditions that would be present at the end of life-of- <br /> Keenesburg No. 2 Mine-112 Reclamation Operation—November 22, 2019 <br />
