1.0 - Inuoduc[ion <br />The required bond amount retained by CDMG was recently modified to account for permit revisions <br />approved since the Phase II bond release of yeaz 2000. Approval of Technical Revision ('TR) 54 and TR- <br />55 increased Basin's current bond liability to $206,633.14. Basin has a pending Phase I bond release <br />request before CDMG pertaining to initial reclamation activities at the NW-1 vent site. L` approved, the <br />remaining bond liability on the Golden Eagle Mine would be $151,832.14. Assuming that CDMG wilt <br />retain 40 percent of the original bond liability ($91,335.00 X 40°/a = $36,534.00) for the NW-1 vent site, <br />the maximum amount requested by Basin for Phase III bond release in yeaz 2006 on the AVF and <br />Rangeland Reclamation azeas will be $115,298.14. <br />The following sections provide information that supports approval of Phase III bond release for the AVF <br />and Rangeland Reclaimed Areas. The discussion focuses on documentation of revegetation success <br />criteria and capability of the reclaimed azea for post-mining land use. The surface-water quantity and <br />quality impact analysis requirement was satisfactorily completed by Basin, and approval to eliminate <br />further analysis was authorized with CDMG approval of TR-54. The groundwater quantity and quality <br />impact analysis is included in Appendix B. This report describes site conditions as of the fast year (yeaz <br />9) of the end of the 10-year liability period. General information requved for a bond release is provided in <br />Table 1. <br />292 -Golden Eagle Phase III (10.07.05) 1-2 <br />
