addresses this issue in more depth. This study is included with this correspondence for your reference. We anticipate reaching an agreement with Ms. Parker regarding mitigation measures for the Sage Hill Farm wetland, which will negate any impacts to her wetlands and wildlife plantings. Significant berming along the south property line of the Nix property will also help to decrease noise and dust impacts that the operation might have on the wetlands and related habitat. Overall, the operation will not cause a significant decrease in food or habitat for wildlife. Nor will it interfere with migratory routes of wildlife. 6.4.12 Exhibit L -Reclamation Costs Per your suggestion, the Applicant would like to utilize the "phased bonding" approach. The figures represented here would be for the largest phase of mining, which will be mining in Area Six. This approach should create a bond amount that would be sufficient to cover the five smaller remaining mine areas. Further, it is our understanding that since mining at 2:1 slopes will leave the desired pit slope for reclamation, no backfilling will be required for reclamation. Therefore, costs for reclamation include equipment mobilization, spreading of topsoil, grading, and revegetation of the site. Equipment Mobilization (Dozer and/or Loader): $194 each x 2 $388 Spreading and Grading of Topsoil (from stockpile): $4.11/CY x 19000 $78090 Revegetation: $47/M.S.F. x 35 $1645 Total $80123 6.4.13 Exhibit M -Other Permits Licenses CDPS Permit. The Applicant has applied for a CDPS discharge permit. The proposed discharge point has been added to the updated Mine Plan Map for your reference. We ask that the Division approve the 112 application with a condition that proof of approval of the CDPS permit be supplied to your office before land disturbance occurs at the site. Substitute Supply Plan. The Applicant has applied for a Substitute Supply Plan through the State Engineer's Office. However, approval for this permit might not occur before the Divisions decision date. We ask that the Division approve the 112 application with a condition that proof of approval of the SSP be supplied to your office before mining below groundwater levels occur at the site. 6.4.14 Exhibit N -Legal Right to Enter Since the time of your initial review of the permit, Owens Brothers Concrete Company has since bought the entire property from the Nix's. A copy of the new Deed's are enclosed with this correspondence for proof of ownership and should adequately demonstrate that Owens Brothers Concrete has the legal right to enter the subject property for mining purposes. 6.4.15 -Owners of Record of Affected Land and Owners of Substance to 8e Mined The issue of proper of legal right to enter documents and new ownership documents is addressed above.
