Dept. 04 Natural Resources <br />Dear Jim: <br />Flatiron Paving Company c,~ould like to request that bond for the Chambers Pit be <br />set at $35,000 annually. This represents the maxi3mmt cost that mould be incurred <br />at any given time to reclaim the site. <br />As you know, the county has set fairly tight limits on how much land can be disturbed <br />at one time because the pit is so close to the twm of Eagle. This means that there <br />will never be a large liability for reclamatiai. Flatiron must reclaim mined areas <br />as quickly as possible in onier to continue excavation. This pattern is reinforced <br />by the needs of the landowner, who is eager to return his land to production as <br />soon as he can. The mining project is actually a land leveling project to increase <br />the efficiency of his irrigation systan. <br />Maximum land disturbance should involve the following costs: <br />Type of Disturi~ance Reclamation Required Acreage Cost Per Acre Zbtal Cost <br />Plant site, etc, leveling/tnpsoiling/ 10 $1525 $15,250 <br />reseeding <br />Active mining leveling/topsoiling/ <br />reseeding <br />Area A 5 1591 $ 7,955 <br />Area B 5 1525 7,625 <br />~bpsoil stripping Fevegetation - Area C 3 66 198 <br />Reclaimed areas additional reseeding 10 66 660 <br />awaiting bond release <br />rux;,m,m total oust $31,688 <br />10~ administration 3,169 <br />34,857 <br />TOPAL BOND $35,000 <br />
