Financial AssuranceReclamation cost estimates are required to determine the financial assurance requirements for a given mining site. The development of adequate cost estimates is a complex undertaking requiring experience with the estimation and implementation of reclamation plan requirements. A detailed knowledge of mining methods, demolition, and reclamation is an important first step in this process.EnviroMINE prepared the reclamation cost estimating procedures that have been adopted by the California State Mining and Geology Board as the standard procedures for all mining projects. These guidelines have helped to standardize estimating procedures for the government and industry as well as reducing conjecture, thereby offering simple solutions for developing accurate cost estimates. Our team has substantial experience with the preparation of financial assurance estimates for mining sites in all areas of California and with many lead agencies including cities, counties, water districts and the State Mining and Geology Board. EnviroMINE is also unique because our staff has hands-on experience with planning and management of reclamation efforts. This experience provides our company with crucial knowledge of the activities and difficulties experienced with site reclamation. This experience allows us to accurately forecast expected reclamation costs. |
