Determine and specify the point during the operation when the site has reached a point of <br />maximum disturbance. The cost to reclaim the site to the specifications of the Reclamation Plan at this <br />point must be estimated. Unit costs (cost per cubic yard), volumes, haul or push distances, and grades <br />must be included when backfilling and grading is part of the Reclamation Plan. Volume and unit costs <br />for finish grading, subsoil and topsoil application must be provided in terms of cost per cubic yazd. The <br />estimated cost for fertilizer, seed and mulch acquisition and application must be provided as cost per <br />acre. <br />(2) Equipment costs must include such factors as equipment operator wages and benefits, fuel and <br />lubricant consumption and depreciation. The cost to mobilize and demobilize the equipment from the <br />neazest population center should be estimated. <br />(3) All items referenced in the Reclamation Plan must be included in the cost calculation.
