v ENVIRONMENT, INC. NOVEMBER 13. 1997 PARE 3 being removed. They will be spaced randomly along the north shore, which is close to the river corridor and we will contact the DOW prior to their construction for guidance in how faz apart they need to be space. The slopes on the north side of the existing west lake, where grading is shallower than 3:1 will not be changes. This slope runs from the internal fence on the west to the north east corner (approximately 940 Feet). The other three sides of the area are close to high people traffic azeas and would not provided the safety needed by the geese using the platforms. Might I suggest the Division include a stipula- tion in the permit that says; Delta must submit a map showing the location of each platform once they are installed. 2. Per our discussion on November 7, an 40% reseeding rate is acceptable when you calculate the bond. It will also give us the documentation when we ask the DOW to reimbursement our costs for wildlife damage. I included this in my bond estimate, also. MINING AND RECLAMATION MAP 1. Once we have completed this review I will supply you with new maps correcting the noted deficiencies, (I'll sign them, too). I am submitting new cross-sections with Exhibit L showing the depth to be approximately 24 feet. I point out that the contour interval is 5 feet on the maps in excavated area so it is difficult to show the actual depth, but if 24 feet is acceptable that is the number that I will use on the corrections. Remember this is an estimated depth and until the gravel is actually removed and the water returns we will not know the exact depth of the lake. The maps and cross sections will have a note stating this so there is no confusion in the future. I have included copies of page 4 with the corrected cross-section for your file. Note nothing changed in the text and the date on the top of the page reflects revision date. Thank for finding and pointing out these problems. RECLAMATION COST ESTIMATE 1. The issue here whether you believe me or not. Out of curiosity I ran the numbers for dewatering the upper part of the existing west lake and do the grading and found that the additional cost was not that much. 1 have included this in my bond estimate for your review. 2. Steve, would it be fair for me to request that you provide me with a contractors certifica- tion for the method you plan to use? I can not get a supplier to give me an open ended bid for this project and can only rely on their verbal information. [realize that you use numbers from past experience and from published data which is the same method I use. I have found that usually the Division and I are not too faz off when all is said and done. Might I suggest that you use your numbers and let me know how far I am off. 1 can then present that to Delta and see if they can live with the additional cost or if we need to reduce the disturbance so as to keep the cost within their limits. This may resolve a lot of the issues that affect the bonding. LEGAL RIGHT OF ENTER 1. Attached is a copy of the lease you requested please note that I marked out area concern- ing royalties and lease amounts and that it is marked CONFIDENTIAL. I still think this is wrong but it is now a fight I will have to take up with the Boazd. It's not fair to you or my client for me to argue this point further.
