Haul Roads. there are approximately 6.3 miles of haul road [ha[ will neetl to be recl aimed. the surfacing material ui ll be pushed into road ditches and buried as part of the cut/fill grading (see Grading to Blend worksheets). See worksheets (Attachment 13-4) for reclamation costs. Tuo of the roads, 4olf Lreek Ramp and A2, will be reclaimed under the wolf Lreek Doundrain and Lower Wolf Creek grading process. Permanent Roads. There are approximately 8.9 miles of haul roads. These roads will 6e narrowed to 20 foot aide for postmining use. These roads will take the place of jeep [rails that existed in the area prior to mining. Refer to worksheets (Attachment 13-4) for reclamation activities. Other Roads. There are approximately 2.25 miles of access roads that will be reclaimed and 3.5 miles of light-use roads that will be reclaimed. Please see uo rkshee[s in Attachment 13-4. Indirect Costs the follouin9 is an estimate of indirect costs associated ui th the reclamation of the • Seneca II Mine. Mobilization and Demobilization. Once the volumes for the various phases of ref lamation were determined, the number of shifts, hours per shift, equipment types, operator/operating of ticiencies, support equipment, and overall reclamation time span, all of which ultimately affect mobilization and demobilization, had to be determined. The Following discussion provides the considerations utilized in determining the equipment fleet needed. Production Shifts. One shift per day was used for [opsoiling and finish grading. Tuo shifts per day was used for open pit backfil ling. Shifts were based on an ei gh[-hour period per shift. A conservative operating efficiency of 83 percent was used to account (or decreased productivity due to operator efficiency for scrapers. Fifty min/hr was used for dozers due to other lactors, taking darkness into consideration. 13-55 Revised 04/15/94
