  • The plans for the three quarries shall distinguish two scenarios:

  • Scenario I: Rehabilitation after future complete exploitation of the quarries; thereby the Contractor shall only update the existing long term rehabilitation plans as per Annex A.1 of this contract (not required for Neszmely sand pit).

  • Scenario II: Rehabilitation based on present material reserve status, thus considering no further exploitation will be done (based on present condition described by topographical map)

  • All plans shall include full rehabilitation including but not limited to:

  • final surface slopes

  • proper long term surface water drainage system

  • access routes as necessary

  • proper waste-dump re-cultivation

  • proposed final surface conditions (vegetation, soil structure)

  • demolition and removal of all buildings, such as crushers, etc. in rehabilitation plan.

  • proper fauna and flora consideration based on surrounding conditions.

  • post-recultivation requirements (monitoring, etc.)

  • estimate for cost (+/- 10 %) and time for the actual execution as well as any postexecution requirements (e.g. monitoring, etc.). The estimate shall include a breakdown by activity and bill of quantity (BOQ)
