Review by the Division has found that the current amount of bond applicable to the haul road is sufficient for worst case reclamation. This review only addressed the worst case cost for reclaiming the haul road. Issues concerning stability, drainage control, location, etc., are being addressed in the bond release request by Sun Coal. The proposed bond release decision does recommend that up to 60% of the bond applicable to the pit area is eligible for release. The amounts which must be retained under Rule 3.03.1(3>(d) to complete worst case reclamation are listed below.

Therefore, the maximum of 60% for Phase I bond release may be approved. If Sun Coal Company agrees with these calculations, the amount of 3456,583.00 would be proposed for release. The remaining bond would be 51,323,417.00.
