Rule 3.02.2- Perfonuance BondDetermination
<br />DRMS August 2020
<br />The PRIO application requests 155.0 acres of new disturbance and 51-7 acres
<br />of redisturbance of Phase III bond released lands. This, according to DRMS
<br />amounts to 206.7 acres of new disturbance. Trapper's Appendix A submitted
<br />with the PR10 application only accounts for 80.72 acres of reclamation located
<br />in J Pit. It appears that TMI is only bonding for a fraction of the area of
<br />requested disturbance.
<br />3. Please clarify and justify the cost estimate submitted with the application.
