Of the other 23.5 ac; s, 7 will be used for the impoundment with only minimal disturba ce of the remaining 16.5 acres from processing, roads, etc. For the 3.5 mined acres full finish grading is approp fate at a cost of 3.5 ac @ $555.54/ac, which equals $1944.39. RRI asserts that once the seven acre pond is pushed to 4$ slope at a cost of $13,208.00, that historical post-mining p rformance standard is satisfied. Although additional finish gradi g will be performed voluntarily, it may not be required by the M Similarly for the remaining 16.5 minimally disturbed cres, the historical post-mining performance standard is sati fied with substantially less grading than proposed by the MLRD. believes that the historical post-mining performance standar will be satisfied with grading at $250 per acre. 16.5 ac @ $250/ c, equals $4,125.00 In summary, RRI proposes for first year grading: 3.5 mined acres @ $555.54/ ac $1944.39 7 pond acres, n/a - 16.5 minimally disturbed acres @250/ac $4125.00 27.0 acres total $6069.39 Topsoil 3.5 ac @ 0.5 ft, depth $ 126.00 No comment.
