Box 670, Hayden, CO 81639 <br />b) Location of new disturbances: <br /># Acres disturbed in last year: SCC reports no new disturbance in 2013 <br />c) Location of 2013 backfill and regrade: <br /># Acres backfilled this year: No backfill was reported for 2013. <br />SCC redistributed topsoil from topsoil stockpile L. <br />SCC reports that 5 acres of topsoil stockpile footprint was re- graded. <br />SCC reports that 3.4 acres at Pond 12 were regraded in 2013. <br />2 <br />d) Location of areas topsoiled in past year (2013): <br /># Acres topsoiled in last year: SCC reported that no topsoil was replaced in 2013. Please <br />clarify this statement. <br />Aerial inspection reports from July 2013, September 26, 2014, and October 2, 2013, <br />indicate that topsoil may have been moved from Topsoil stockpile L to reshape drainage <br />YPM -5 -1, slopes around Pond 12A, and the regraded Pond 12 slide area. Please provide <br />additional detail of this work. If these repairs involved redistribution of topsoil, please <br />report the appropriate values. <br />SCC provided topsoil balance values. SCC reports that 36.7 acre feet of topsoil remain <br />available in topsoil stock pile(s) at the end of 2013. The 2012 ARR reported that 41.2 <br />acre feet of topsoil remained in topsoil stockpiles. Please account for this 4.5 acre -feet <br />difference in reported topsoil. <br />Based on the remaining acreage requiring topsoil replacement, SCC reports the remaining <br />available topsoil will be adequate to meet the required topsoil replacement thickness. <br />e) Location of areas seeded in 2013: SCC reported that approximately 3.4 acres were <br />reseeded in the Pond 12 slide area. SCC also seeded approximately 5.0 acres at Topsoil <br />Stockpile L footprint. <br />555 Street Address, Room 555, Denver, CO 55555 -5555 P 555.555.5555 <br />
