Reclamation – CC&V has an active concurrent reclamation program to reclaim areas impacted by mining activities to their post-mining land use of grazing and wildlife habitat.
CC&V's commitment is to
reclaim the land to a beneficial use for grazing and wildlife habitat not
only by planting grasses, legumes, and forbs, but also through the
transplanting of trees and shrubs. Seeding of species is conducted by hand
broadcasting and by helicopter onto the prepared surfaces. Fertilizers,
when needed, are deployed by helicopter or by ground-based mechanical
spreaders. A wood fiber and tackifier mulch is placed where the seed needs
to be stabilized for germination.
To ensure that the lands are reclaimed according to the reclamation plan approved by the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Board, State law requires posting of adequate financial warranty to fully fund reclamation through the State, if that should ever be required. As of January 2009, the financial warranty for the Project is about $97 million.
