Savage & Savage <br />C- 1992 -080 / RN -4 PAR No. 2 <br />18- Dec -2013 <br />Page 7 of 7 <br />but given that reclamation occurred in 2005, the mine might be eligible for bond release <br />as early as 2016. <br />DBMS 12/18: The cover letter to the August 2013 adequacy response indicates that <br />Qakridge is currently evaluating the Division's suggestion. <br />2. DBMS 12118: The discussion of post - mining land uses provided in subsection 2.05.5 of <br />the APD is incomplete. Division records indicate that for the original Carbon Junction <br />Mine permit (C -1982 -054), the pre - mining land uses were Rangeland/'Wildlife Habitat <br />and Cropland (dryland wheat). Approved post - mining land uses were the same; no <br />alternate uses were proposed. When the current permit was issued in 1993, the post - <br />mining land uses were to be rangeland, wildlife habitat, and dryland farming. Please <br />revise the discussion in 2.05.5 of the ADP to provide a complete history of land uses, in <br />addition to the change in land use that was approved under TR -05 in 1996. <br />Other Comments <br />1. DRMS 12/18: The Table of Contents for the original permit volumes is obsolete, and <br />needs to be updated to reflect the current pagination. A manually- corrected version is <br />enclosed, for your use. Please update the Table of Contents as indicated, and expand the <br />TCC to list the various Appendices and Maps that are included in the permit. These <br />changes could be accomplished with a Minor Revision, which would also incorporate the <br />removal of the two maps addressed in item 4 under 2.05.4, above. <br />This concludes the Division's Preliminary Adequacy Review No. 2 for Permit Renewal No. 4 of <br />the Carbon Junction Mine, C -1992 -080. Please contact me with any questions you may have as <br />you prepare your response. <br />Sincerely, <br />Marcia L.
