PARCEL, MAURO, HULTIN & SPAANSTRA, P.G. <br />Ms. Susan McCannon <br />February 20, 1991 <br />Page 2 <br />Agreement § V. To date, Rockcastle has completed the following reclamation at the Grassy <br />Gap site and, therefore, is entitled to release of the following respective bond amounts: <br />Reclamation Amount of <br />Activity (CMLRD Bond Release (CMLRD <br />Agreement Section) Agreement Section) <br />Backfilling, grading and retopsoiling $47,842 (§ V.2) <br />the Pit 4 area (§ II.1, II.2) <br />Reseed Pit 4 area (§ II.3) $18,906 (§ V.3.a) <br />Remove shop building and recontour, N/A <br />retopsoil and reseed this area <br />(§ II.4) <br />Completion of Engineering studies and $15,000 (§ V.3.b)' <br />road buttressing activities (§ IV. 2) <br />CMLRD's assertion (in the December 19, 1990 adequacy letter) that Rockcastle's <br />bond request is a final bond release is premature. Section IV of the CMLRD Agreement <br />allows CMLRD to condition final bond release if reclamation activities at Pits 5 and 6 <br />remain uncompleted at that time. Section V.5 states that final bond release will occur upon <br />completion of "...the reclamation activities set forth in §§ II, III & IV of [the CMLRD] <br />Agreement:' Here, despite completion of the vast majority of reclamation work at the site, <br />several reclamation activities are outstanding in addition to completion of sediment control <br />features at Pits 5 and 6. These activities include, but are not limited to, reclamation of <br />sediment ponds and installation of minor toe buttresses adjacent to the Pit 4 haul road. <br />Moreover, this is not the final bond release request contemplated in §§ IV.1 or V of the <br />CMLRD Agreement. <br />Please do not hesitate to contact me or Jerry Nettleton (ACZ) if you have any <br />questions regarding the requested release of bond monies pursuant to the CMLRD <br />' Rockcastle acknowledges that minor toe buttresses were approved by CMLRD and <br />must still be installed in areas adjacent to the Pit 4 haul road. Rockcastle estimates that <br />these activities will cost approximately $ 2,250. Thus, Rockcastle hereby reduces its <br />requested bond release to $ 12,750 for these activities. <br />
