Rule 1: Permits <br />• Reclamation of Facilities <br />Section 2.05.3 describes the project facilities. These facilities will be removed and reclaimed at <br />the end of the life of the mines. <br />All buildings and other structures will be removed. Mechanical equipment, scrap iron, and other <br />metal portions of structures will be salvaged for reuse where possible. Surface concrete pads and <br />foundations will be broken up and the material used as a fill. Concrete footings greater than 3- <br />feet below the final graded surface will be buried in-place. Remaining excavations will be <br />backfilled to post-mining topography consistent with pre-mining topography. Previously <br />salvaged subsoil and topsoil will be respread. A cost estimate for facilities reclamation is <br />presented in Section 3.0. <br />Reclamation of Ponds <br />All sediment ponds are proposed for permanent retention based on the landowner's wishes. A <br />demonstration to show compliance with Rule 4.05.9(1) will be filed at the time of Phase 2 bond <br />release. <br />• <br />• <br />Page30562a Rule2Permin (May.102)doc 2.OS-62a (Revised 5-1-02) <br />
