Only approximately 1000 ft of <br />the presently detoured road will be reclaimed at the following <br />estimated cost: (1.2 acres) ($2403/acre) _ $2883 ($2903/acre <br />derived in Step 5). <br />There are five ponds to be reclaimed by dewatering, desilting, <br />redistributing the dam embankment material to blend with adjacent <br />contours, topsoiling and other revegetation procedures. Most dirt <br />moving for pond reclamation will be done with a Caterpillar D-9 <br />dozer. The approximate costs for pond reclamation are estimated as <br />follows: <br />Pond #1 Area Disturbed: 2.0 acres <br />Embankment Volume: 5185 BCY <br />Dozer to distribute embankment material (150 ft push) <br />5185 BCY x $.25/BCY = $1296 <br />Topsoil and revegetate 2.0 acres x $2403/acre = $4806 <br />TOTAL POND #1 = $6102 <br />Pond #2 Area Disturbed = .5 acres <br />Embankment Volume: 926 BCY <br />926 BCY x $.25/BCY = $232 <br />.5 acres x $2403/acre = 1202 <br />TOTAL POND #2 $1434 <br />Pond #3 Area Disturbed = .2 acres <br />Embankment Volume: 444 BCY <br />494 BCY x $.25JBCY = $111 <br />.2 acres x $2403/acre = 981 <br />TOTAL POND #3 $592 <br />Pond #4 Area Disturbed: 1.2 acres <br />Embankment Volume: 2000 BCY <br />2000 BCY x 5.25/BCY = $500 <br />1.2 acres x $2403/acre = 2884 <br />TOTAL POND #4 $3384 <br />- i r~_ <br />
