0 6.0 CLOSURE/POST-CLOSURE MAINTENANCE COST ESTIMATE <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 the <br />proposed closure design and post -closure maintenance procedures presented in <br />Sections 3 and 4 of this FPCPCMP. The estimate for closure improvements was <br />combined with an estimate for construction management/quality assurance <br />services to determine the total closure cost. <br />The Plan features are grouped into categories for convenience in presenting the <br />cost estimate. A brief description of the components included in each category <br />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 require <br />placement of final cover is 30 acres. The proposed final cover for Stage IA of <br />the Forward Landfill will consist of a minimum one -foot thick foundation layer of <br />select soil, which has been placed as interim cover in the Stage IA partial closure <br />area, and a three-foot thick layer of select soil that will comprise the upper <br />monolithic cover layer. This category also includes costs for clearing and <br />grubbing and settlement/survey monument installation. <br />6.2.1.1 FINAL COVER CONSTRUCTION QUALITY ASSURANCE MONITORING AND <br />TESTING <br />Costs for construction quality assurance include the final cover placement tests, <br />inspections and reporting. <br />Forward Landfill PFCPCMP 6-1 <br />):\Allied\Forward\2005.0051 Partial Closure\Partial Closure Plan\FL-sec 6.doc: 6/15/2005 <br />
