The proposal of a floating bond is inappropriate since mining could <br />be completed in 1 year and successful reclamation normally takes a minimum <br />of 2 years. <br />3. We suggest the following cost figures as being appropriate for this <br />site. The numbers are based on the cost to move all materials since it <br />is unclear as to how much of the reclamation will be concurrent with the <br />mining activity for the 1 year scenario. <br />A. Stripping Requirements - 182,OD0 cubic yards 1. Replacement & grading = <br />.30¢/cubic yeard = $54,600. > pO °° is~~ <br />B.
