• 3.0 Specific Reclamation Activities and Results 3.1 Phase I I I Areas • As shown on Exhibit 1 - 2010 Phase III Bond Release Application, each area requested for bond release is comprised of smaller units, which correspond to the specific year that backfilling, grading and reseeding were performed. The work completed includes regrading to the approved post-mining topography (See Map 10, Permit C-81-019), topsoil replacement to the required depth, and seeding with the approved seed mix. Grading and topsoil replacement is generally performed in the summer and fall months and seeding occurs in the fall. See Table 1 - Summary of Reclamation Activities for an overview of the work performed for each reclaimed area. Each of these areas have achieved the minimum ten years of responsibility required by state statute for Phase III bond release. All areas included in this bond release application also comply with the Phase I and II criteria set forth in the "Guideline Regarding Selected Coal Mine Bond Release Issues", issued April 18, 1995.
