<br />FRUITA/AMERICAN SHIELD PROJECT <br />Bond Revocation Permit #C81-Oi5 <br />Closeout Report <br />December 11, 2000 <br />I. PROJECT OVERVIEW <br />111 Illlllllllllllll <br />999 <br />The Fruita Mine Project azea is located 10 miles north of Fruita in Mesa County. Situated in the <br />Bookcliffs, the elevation of the work area is approximately 5,000 feet. The project consisted of one <br />mine site requiring reclamation work. <br />The area in which the project was located had been mined by underground methods creating an <br />overcast slope from a bench cut. Reclamation work included in this project was initiated as a result <br />from an estimated 100 year storm event which severely eroded an overcast slope which was <br />previously revegetated within another bond forfeiture project in 1996. The project consisted of the <br />construction of an erosionally stable drainage way through the bench and slope areas, the <br />rewntouring of the main access road, and the revegetation of the regraded areas. Construction was <br />performed under two separate periods with the later period consisting of late fall reseeding. Paul <br />IGabacher was the Project Manager for the project. <br />II. LANDOWNER CONSENT <br />Landowner notification was made through the Coal Section's Reclamation Specialist's <br />correspondence. Communication with the landowner included making him aware ofthe differing <br />reclamation technique of establishing a drainage through the overcast slope as a result of an <br />estimated 100 year flood rather than trying to manage the site's hydrology through run-on and <br />run-offcontrolstructures. <br />III.
