A <br />summary of this cost estimate by various tasks provided by DMG is attached in Illustration 47. <br />The 2007 Permit Renewal estimate of total reclamation costs, including direct costs, contractor <br />profit, and overhead is $5,420,417. Details of the cost estimate are available from DMG, and from <br />BME's Deserado Mine office. <br />The reclamation timetable is divided into two portions representing reclamation during mining <br />(refuse disposal areas) and postmining reclamation. The timetable for revegetation of refuse <br />disposal areas during mining is shown on Map 76. Table V-7 gives the revegetation schedule <br />during mining through the fourth mine permit term (through 2009). The following timetable is the <br />approximate schedule for post-mining reclamation. <br />TASK <br />Mobilization <br />Facility Demolition <br />Regrading <br />Topsoil Replacement <br />• Seeding <br />Technical Revision #65 (4/2008) <br />V-66 <br />APPROXIMATE YEARS <br />2024 <br />2024 <br />2024-2025 <br />2024-2025 <br />2024-2025 <br />
