Susan Burgmaier -2- July 10, 2014 <br />4. DRMS - The pagination of proposed pages 2.04 -11 through 2.04 -13 will not mesh with <br />the currently approved pages 2.04 -12 and 2.04 -13. Please repaginate all subsequent <br />pages or rename proposed 2.04 -12 and 2.04 -13 as 2.04 -11a and 2.04 -11b (orsimilar <br />numbering convention). <br />BRL - Pages 2.04 -12 and 2.04 -13 were renumbered 2.04 -11i and 2.04 -11ii. <br />Rule 2.03.6 - Right of Entry and Operation Information <br />5. DRMS - Pages 2.03 -8 and 2.03 -15 reference Federal Coal Lease COC75916 providing <br />right of entry to mine the coal in the proposed PR -14 expansion area. It is the Division's <br />understanding that this lease has not yet been granted to BRL. Please provide updated <br />information on the status of Lease COC75916 approval. <br />BRL - A competitive bid lease sale is scheduled for July 30, 2014. <br />Rule 2.04.4 - Cultural and Historic Resource Information <br />6. DRMS - Page 2.04 -12 acknowledges that the Class III study conducted in the Spruce <br />Stomp area did not evaluate the effects of surface activities on the identified sites that are <br />eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Prior to any surface <br />disturbance in the Spruce Stomp expansion area, BRL will need to evaluate the effects of <br />that disturbance on any of the sites listed as eligible for listing on the National Register of <br />Historic Places. <br />BRL - Comment noted. <br />DRMS - The pagination of revised pages 2.04 -12 and 2.04 -13 is inconsistent with the <br />currently approved permit application package. Page 2.04 -12 of the currently approved <br />application starts with Section 2.04.5, General Description of Hydrology and Geology. <br />Please revise the proposed page numbering of revised pages 2.04 -12 and 2.04 -13 to be <br />consistent with the currently approved page 2.04 -12 so that the General Description of <br />Hydrology and Geology required by Rule 2.04.5 is retained. <br />BRL - Pages 2.04 -12 and 2.04 -13 were renumbered 2.04 -11i and 2.04 -11ii. <br />Rule 2.04.6 - Geology Description <br />8. DRMS - The information presented on Maps 08 and 08A, Geologic Cross Sections, does <br />not appear to have been updated with the PR -14 submittal (excepting the permit boundary, <br />which was updated). Please update Maps 08 and 08A to include stratigraphy and <br />structure information for the PR -14 expansion area, as required by Rules 2.04.6(1) and <br />(3). <br />
