C- 1981 -035 ARR Review — 2012 Page 2 of 2
2.04.13(I)(b) Location and number of acres disturbed during that year;
For King I, the values correlate with those reported in the 2011 ARR. The 2012 map
delineates two areas on the outslope of the Refuse Pile as having been seeded in 2005 and
2009. For future iterations of the map, please add "Graded and Topsoiled" to the
description of the area seeded in 2005.
For Ding II, under the "For the Entire Life of Mine" section, the total number of acres
disturbed is given as 23.36. Elsewhere on the form, 22.36 acres is listed. Please correct
this entry, as warranted, on future ARR forms, and include an explanation of the
change.
2.04.13(1)(c) Location and number of acres backfilled and graded during that year;
For King I, backfilling and grading of -1.09 acres is reported on the form and the map as
having been accomplished in 2012. This reflects the coal mine waste that was relocated
to the top of the refuse pile.
2.04.13(1)(d) Location and number of acres topsoiled during that year;
No areas were reported as having been topsoiled during 2011.
2.04,13(1)(e) The species, location and number of acres of vegetation planted during that year,
including any augmented seeding or cultural practices. Discrete areas planted with
specific seedmixes should be Indicated, and seedtags, invoices or other comparable
documentation should be included;
No areas were reported as having been seeded during 2012. The Division reviewed the
ARRs for 2005 and 2009, during which years the current ARR indicates seeding was
accomplished. It does not appear that any documentation regarding seedmixes used was
provided. Please ensure that the required documentation is submitted for any future
revegetation efforts.
2.04.13(l)(f) Location, number of acres and date of planting for all previously revegetated
areas.
The maps submitted clearly identify areas at King I and King II that were seeded in
previous years
This concludes the Division's review of the 2011 Annual Reclamation Report for the King Coal
Mine. Please provide the requested explanations and documentation with future submittals.
