5. Pages 2.03 -8 and 2.03 -15 reference Federal Coal Lease COC75916 providing right of entry to
mine the coal in the proposed PR -14 expansion area. The Division requested a status update
on the lease approval process, and BRL has since notified the Division that BRL was awarded
lease sale on July 30, 2014. Please provide right of entry information for Lease COC75916
when it is obtained.
Rule 2.04.4 — Cultural and Historic Resource Information
6. Issue resolved; no response to the Division's comment was required from BRL.
7. Issue resolved, BRL revised the pagination of revised page 2.04 -12, and retained existing
page 2.04 -13.
Rule 2.04.6 —Geology Description
8. The Division requested that BRL update Maps 08 and 08A to include stratigraphy and
structure information for the PR -14 expansion area, as required by Rules 2.04.6(1) and (3).
BRL revised Maps 8 and 8A to include data from drill hole SS -9. Does BRL have any data
from the exploration holes (SS -2, SS -3, SS -4A and SS -4B) drilled under NOI X- 2005 - 217 -10?
If data is available, it should be added to Maps 8 and 8A for a more complete
representation of the permit area and affected area being added with PR -14.
Also, it appears that the scale is incorrect for Cross Section B -B'; the distance between USS-
G-14 and SS -9 does not appear to be accurate. Please verify the scale of Cross Section 8 -B'
on Map 08 -A and revise as necessary.
Rule 2.04.7 — Hydrology Description
Rule 2.04.7(2) — Surface Water Information
9. Issue resolved; BRL updated page 2.04 -12 as requested.
10. Issue resolved; BRL incorporated the WWE study as Tab 23 of Volume IIIB.
11. Issue resolved; BRL updated the flow data for stream site (SW -05).
12. Issue resolved; BRL revised page 2.04 -48 as requested.
13. a. In response to the Division's request for complete baseline data for the West Fork of
Terror Creek, BRL indicated that baseline data collection is ongoing. Please update
Exhibit 3 of Volume 111 to provide complete baseline data for the West Fork of Terror
Creek as soon as it becomes available. The Division cannot grant approval for PR -14
without the baseline data required by Rule 2.04.7(2)(b).
