HASTINGS PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Hastings Strip Mine is located approximately 7 miles south of Florence, Colorado. The mine is located within the E 1/2 of the SW 1/4 of Section 19, T20S, R69W, 6th P. M., in Fremont County. The Hastings Strip Mine was operated from 1977 to 1979. The mine shut down due to economic conditions. Subsequently, the Mined Land Reclamation Division revoked the mining and reclamation permit and reclamation bond in the amount of 521,506.05. This is the amount of money available for this project. The major objective of this project is to move the overburden in the overburden stockpile back into the pit; topsoil all areas of exposed overburden; and re-establish the ephemeral drainage through the pit. Project work to be bid on includes: 1) backfill the Pit with material from the coal processing area and overburden stockpile 2) establish an ephemeral drainage through the pit 3) place topsoil on the regraded areas within the pit and 4) equipment rental hours for a dozer, scraper and front end loader to rip compacted areas and do other jobs as required. Each of the above tasks is described in more detail below. Backfilling and Grading Pit The major purposes for backfilling and grading the pit are to return the topography to the approximate original contours and reestablish an ephemeral drainage through the pit. Highwalls presently exist on the south and west sides of the pit. Overburden and waste coal from the coal processing waste area is to be moved to the pit area. There are approximately 36,000 cubic yards of material in the overburden stockpile and at the coal processing area which must be moved to the pit. Bidders are encouraged to verify this estimate.
