stockpiles. this information was included in the operator's <br />response. The volume of coal to be moved was based on the <br />assumption that there are 1,700 lbs/cuyd of coal. It was assumed <br />that the volumes provided for the clean coal and stoker coal <br />stockpile was half of the total coal stockpile capacity. Please <br />see tasks 103 and 104. <br />Response - The bond has been modified to reflect the removal of <br />foundations and revised volume calculation for the storage bin. <br />The cost to haul away the stockpiles (clean and stoker) has been <br />previously submitted and the cost to haul the 50,000 tons <br />associated with the ROM stockpile is included in the revised bond <br />calculation. It should be noted that Twentymile was placing the <br />material in the portal area and not taking it to the refuse pile. <br />In the event of bond forfeiture it is assumed the Division would <br />place the coal in the portal area, which is closer to the <br />stockpiles than the refuse pile. Therefore, Twentymile believes <br />its bond estimate for removing the stockpiles is realistic. <br />2. Volumes of topsoil to be removed for this project was provided <br />as requested. However, a task to replace topsoil from stockpiles <br />SF-4 and PPSP-1 were not included in the operator's estimate. In <br />addition, I recalculated the task to replace soil from PPSP-2. <br />Please see tasks 105, 106, and 107. The haul distance was measured <br />using Figure i1C. the operator should provide a scale for this <br />figure. With your assistance, we determined the scale to be 1" _ <br />400'. If this is incorrect, please let me know so I can <br />recalculate the tasks. <br />Response - The Division's estimate has been incorporated into the <br />bond estimate. <br />3. As the operator clarified that an access road will not be <br />constructed and a section of haul road B will be relocated, no <br />further response is required. I understand that haul road B will <br />be retained as a permanent road, so task 101 (previously provided) <br />was revised to reduce the size of the haul road. <br />Response - The segment of Haul Road B that will be relocated will <br />not be part of the permanent road. This segment of the road will <br />be removed during site grading. The permanent road will follow the <br />previously approved course and is covered under Twentymile's <br />existing bond. <br />4. No response was provided. If Pond E is significantly larger <br />than the current pond, the reclamation task will need to be <br />revised. <br />Response - As stated in the March 2, 1995 response, Pond E will not <br />be significantly larger than the existing pond. <br />5. Task 100 (previously provided) was revised to add 16,000 cubic <br />yards of material and the description of the task was changed to <br />reflect preparation plant site regrading. <br />
