<br />no reclamation is planned for the slide areas. There is bedrock beneath the loose talus and it may <br />be exposed by the removal of loose rock. Either bedrock or loose rock will form [he finished <br />surface of the mined areas related to the slides. The finished surface will have approximately the <br />same slope as the existing surface (2H:1 V). <br />Exhibit L <br />Estimated cost of reclamation, Phase I: <br />Activity Cost Basis Estimated Cost <br />Mobilization/Dentobilization Personnel and equipment $250.00 <br /> from Meeker <br />Backfilling and Grading - ($2.50/yd')x(6000yd') $15,000.00 <br />(terraces to be re6~raded and waste push distance = 12 ft <br />rock pushed to toe of headwall) finished grade = 1.8 - 1 (I-I/V) <br />Topsoil Application - (2750yd')x($4.00/yd') $11,000.00 <br /> k <br />(haul and spread topsoil on haul distance = 0.85 miles <br />terraces) finished grade = 1.8 - 1 (HN) <br />Telling - (not needed) $0 <br />Seeding - ($300.00/acre)x(2.5 acres) $750.00 <br />(cost of seed and landscape matt) Landscape matt $875.00 <br />Subtotal $27,625 <br />Total cost of reclamation Subtotal plus 23.5% burden $34,116 <br />Results and Conclusions <br />,o ~~~ <br />~9t~~o <br />O~ <br />~7 ~ . <br />Va` /t+~ <br />~~So~ <br />~75 J <br />S°° <br />x /j <br />~~S° <br />~~~S~J <br />k Cat ~S` <br />.~ u~ <br />~v (oG ,.~ /1 ~/ VV o <br />~ 7 <br />In summary, the proposed mine will have limited impact on the current land use as rangeland. <br />The area is zoned for agriculture and will remain so after mining is completed.
