EXHIBIT L - Reclamation Costs <br />The Witherbee Pit is a total of 80 acres. The effective mined area is 40.8 acres. <br />1) The area of excavation will be mined as close to a slope of 3:1 as possible and <br />finished at 3:1. <br />2) Overburden and topsoil will be re-applied to the excavations. <br />3) The slopes will be fertilized with fertilizer or barnyard manure as indicated by soil <br />tests and then seeded with a cover crop. <br />4) After the cover crop is established, the grass will be planted as recommended by <br />the local Natural Resource Conservation Service. <br />5) An estimate has not been prepared because this permit is held by a county <br />government which guarantees that they will reclaim the pit.
