I SPECIAL CONDITIONS Coal Gulch Bond Forfeiture Project C-84-067 RN-MINES-320 PROJECT LOCATION The Coal Gulch site is located 4.6 miles west of Durango on the Durango West (1963) 7 1/2 minute quadrangle in the NE 1/4, NE 1/4 Section 21, and the NW 1/4, NW 1/4 Section 22, 735N, R10W. The site is accessed from State Highway 160 and is visible from State Highway 160. WORK SUMMARY The project work will include the moving and replacing approximately 91,000 cubic yards of material against sidecuts produced by a previously active mining operation. The project will proceed by first placing waste material against the toe of the cuts. This will involve sorting riprap material. Following the removal and placement of the waste material against the cuts, designated on-site topsoil stockpiles will be distributed over the waste materials. Final grades will be directed at achieving proper drainage and controlling erosion including channel and furrow construction. An existing wetland area used for acid mine drainage treatment will be reconstructed including vegetation transplanting. All disturbed areas will be revegetated.
