This item also includes all labor, equipment, and costs associated with demobilization and clean-up of the work site following completion of the Project. Please see Specification 1.0, Mobilization / Demobilization of the General Bid Specifications, Colorado Inactive Mine Reclamation Program, 2004. A copy of the General Bid Specifications, 2004, may be obtained from: Division of Minerals and Geology 1313 Sherman Street Room 215 Denver, Colorado 80203 303-866-3567 Specifically included within Task 1 is the CONTRTACTORS responsibility to minimize disturbance to previously reclaimed areas, including old roads and each mine bench. Portions of Roads B, D, E, F and G (see attached Project Area map) will be traversed to access the work sites. Each of these roads has been previously reclaimed. Access to the work areas via these reclaimed roads will be restricted to a two wheel track that CONTRACTOR will establish at each road. All traffic must be restricted to the two wheel track through the duration of the project. Operation of motorized equipment, including all terrain vehicles, outside of the established track is prohibited. Contractor MUST comply with the following provisions during performance of this Project: CONTRACTOR will exercise care to preserve the natural landscape and shall conduct all operations in a manner which minimizes disturbance and prevents any unnecessary destruction, scarring, or defacing of the natural surroundings in the vicinity of the work. No clearing shall be conducted without prior approval of the PROJECT MANAGER and without an approved sediment control structure in place and functional, as required by PROJECT MANAGER, until construction is completed. Generally, silt fence, installed per manufacturers specifications is acceptable as a sediment control measure. Where clearing has prior approval of the PROJECT MANAGER, all trees, native shrubbery and vegetation will be preserved and protected to the extent practical from damage caused by CONTRACTORS operation and equipment. All routes for movement of materials shall be subject to Project Manager prior approval. 7
