<br />Carbon Junction did not bond for several ripping tasks such as the <br />temporary roads and the equipment storage area. Per the <br />reclamation plan, the main haul road will remain in place so I did <br />not bond for this task. See Tasks 9-12 for more information <br />regarding ripping. <br />I included a cost for final grading of the mine site using a 14G <br />Motor Grader. Carbon Junction did not include this task in the <br />bond estimate. Tasks 16-18 represent final grading. <br />Carbon Junction did not include a cost for reclamation of wells, or <br />structural demolition. The number and depth of wells was based on <br />your knowledge of the site. The structures on site were outlined <br />in the reclamation plan. All of these structures are portable, so <br />I did not include a cost for removing and disposing of cement. <br />These facilities are currently not located on site, so they may be <br />bonded prior to construction. <br />As you already know, the Division calculated a much higher <br />revegetation cost than Carbon Junction. This is most likely due to <br />the vague revegetation plan, as well as the cost for hydroseeding. <br />Tasks 29a-29d outline the cost estimate for revegetation. I broke <br />the tasks down by drill seeding on flat areas, broadcast seeding, <br />hydroseeding and tree and shrub transplanting. Please review task <br />29a-29d for further clarification. <br />Carbon Junction omitted the cost for mobilization and <br />demobilization and net project hours from the estimate. Refer to <br />task 30 and 31 for the Divisions estimate. <br />cc: Dan Hernandez <br />Larry Routten <br />
