6.0 CLOSURE/POST-CLOSUR <br />In order to establish the basis for the proper level of funding to close and <br />provide post -closure maintenance for Stage IA of the Forward Landfill in an <br />environmentally sound manner, a cost estimate has been prepared reflecting <br />the proposed closure design and post -closure maintenance procedures <br />presented in Sections 3 and 4 of this FPCPCMP. The estimate for closure <br />improvements was combined with an estimate for construction <br />management/quality assurance services to determine the total closure cost. <br />6.2 CLOSURE COST ESTIMATE <br />The Plan features are grouped into categories for convenience in presenting <br />the cost estimate. A brief description of the components included in each <br />category is given below. The total closure cost estimate is shown on Table 6. <br />0 6.2.1 FINAL COVER <br />Based on the Stage IA final grading plan, the approximate area which will <br />require placement of final cover is 30 acres. The proposed final cover for <br />Stage IA of the Forward Landfill will consist of a minimum one -foot thick <br />foundation layer of select soil, which has been placed as interim cover in the <br />Stage IA partial closure area, and a three-foot thick layer of select soil that <br />will comprise the upper monolithic cover layer. This category also includes <br />costs for clearing and grubbing and settlement/survey monument installation. <br />6.2.1.1 FINAL COVER CONSTRUCTION QUALITY ASSURANCE MONITORING <br />AND TESTING <br />Costs for construction quality assurance include the final cover placement <br />tests, inspections and reporting. <br />Forward Landfill PFCPCMP 6-1 <br />Z:\PROJECTSWIIied Waste\Forward\Reference Files Prior JTD\June 05 Stage IA Partial FCPCMP\FL-sec 6.doc: 6/16/2008 <br />
