Subarea No. 1 - 26 acre feet (41,947 cu. yds.)
~~ Subarea No. 2, 3 - 52 acre fee); (83,893 cu. yds.)
This quantity differs substantially from the 36;300 cu. yd. figure provided in
the reclamation cost estimate. Additionally, if refuse subarea No. 4 is to be
developed during this permit term, the cost of replacing all salvaged topsoil
will need to be included in the estimate.
Pages 35 through 46 - earthwork and Topsoil Replacement at Rail Loop and Slot
Storage Areas
As discussed previously for other earthwork activities, the equipment
productivity figures for earthmoving operations conducted during the second
and third shifts need to be reduced accordingly. Floodlighting systems will
need to be added to the estimate along with increased operator wages for the
second and third shifts.
Page 47 - Slot Storage Area Topsoil Replacement
Map No. 112 of the permit application shows a 5,100 cu. yd. topsoil stockpile
situated at toe of the southeast facing slope of the slot storage facility.
The map also shows a 1,700 cu. yd. topsoil stockpile situated to the northwest
of the storage facility which contains material salvaged from the laydown,
staging emergency coal storage area. This amount of material differs
substantially from the 3,550 cu. yds. figure provided in the reclamation cost
estimate. In addition, due to the proximity of the 5,100 cu. yd. topsoil
stockpile to the toe of the storage area fill embankment to be regraded, it
appears that the topsoil will need to be moved and temporarily stockpiled away
from the area to allow regrading work to be accomplished. Therefore, the cost
of double handling the material should be provided in the estimate.
Miscellaneous Items
Cost estimates for the following tasks should be added into the bond
calculation:
D-Portal Area - Scullion Gulch restoration work (including removal of
the large diversion culvert system), parking lot
