EXHIBIT L RECLAMATION COSTS <br />This reclamation cost estimate in based on the assumption <br />that there will be no more than 30.00 acres t disturbed at any <br />one time. The following information also depicts a worse case <br />scenario. At that time McAtee will have to respread 14,960 cubic <br />yards of topsoil; do 8,194 cubic yards of cut/fill dozer work on <br />2300 lft of working face; backfill 40,800 cy on 600 feet and <br />revegetate 30.00 ac. t. The table below outlines the various <br />areas of disturbance at that time. The amount of topsoil that <br />will be re-spread is based on an average of 4 inches. A D-8N <br />dozer will be used to do all shaping and seed preparation. As <br />631D scraper will be sued to haul topsoil and backfill material. <br />Mobilization costs are estimated as round trip costs, one way <br />distance of 6.5 miles and average speed of 40 mph. These figures <br />are then used in the calculations for the bond amount. The <br />revegetation cost figure includes fertilizer (aged manure), grass <br />seed, mulch and drilling costs. <br />This is done in an attempt to set the bond so there is <br />flexibility to oderate without reevaluating the bond yearly. <br />RECLAMATION ACTIVITY AREAS (ac, Ift.)
