Pi <br />RECLAMATION COSTS <br />EXHIBIT L <br />This reclamation cost estimate is based on the assumption that there will be no more than 22 <br />acres t disturbed at any one time. The following information also depicts a worst case scenario. At that <br />time we will have to respreads 14,750 cubic yards of topsoil, do 52,087 cubic yards of cut/fill dozer <br />work, and revegetate 22 acre t. The table below outlines the various areas of disturbance at that time. <br />The amount of topsoil that will be re-spread is based on an average of 5 inches. A dozer will be used to <br />do all of the dirt work and a motor grader will be used to do the seed bed preparation. These figures are <br />then used in the calculations for the bond amount. The revegetation cost figure Includes grass seed <br />costs. <br />STAGE TOTAL SOIL DEPTH <br />NEEDS RESOILING 22 511 <br />NEEDS SEEDING 22 <br />SLOPE CUT/FILL 1250 Ft. @ 41.67 yd. /LFT <br />RESOIL @ 5" 14,750 cubic yards <br />ESTIMATED UNIT COSTS FOR RECLAMATION ITEMS: <br />1.
