Map 2.05.4 -6 Morgan Property Topsoil Replacement Plan was not submitted for revision to <br />include the revisions proposed in TR -65. Please update the map with the proposed revisions and <br />submit for review. <br />Response: Map 2.05.4 -6 has been updated and submitted in this response package as requested. <br />4. The text at the bottom of revised page 2.05.4(2)(d) -21 is not consistent with the text on the top of <br />current page 2.05.4(2) (d) -22. Please revise so the discussion is consistent from page <br />2.05.4(2)(d) -21 onto page 2.05.4(2)(d) -22. <br />Response: Page 2.05.4(2)(d )-21 and page 2.05.4(2)(d) -22 have been corrected as requested. <br />5. According to Map 2.05.4 -9 Topsoil Stockpile Map, the volumes of the stockpiles C, D, E and H by <br />the facil ities area have increased and the volumes of stock piles B, F and G have decreased. As <br />of the date of the map, Dec 2014, soil was being removed from stockpiles C, D, E and H and no <br />soil had been removed from B, F and G. Please explain why the volumes on have changed. <br />Response: Prior to commencement of the reclamation activities in 2014, stockpiles C, D, E, H, F, <br />and G were re- surveyed during February and March of 2014. This survey was performed to <br />verify stockpile volumes for the scope of work that was bid out to a third party to conduct the <br />reclamation work. The results of this new survey indicated a larger stockpile volume than the <br />original survey. WFC noted this discrepancy internally, and compared the two surveys and <br />firmly believes the new survey was much more accurate than original survey. Thus the TR -65 <br />application was update with the corrected stockpile volumes prior to submittal. <br />Map 2.05.4 -9 when originally prepared for submittal under TR -65 was accurate to date on <br />stockpile volumes and the overall topsoil balance. The Division is correct that topsoil since that <br />timeframe has been removed from stockpiles C, D, E, and H. WFC fully intends to address the <br />revised stockpile volumes and associated topsoil balance in a near term technical revision and in <br />the 2015 Annual Reclamation Report. <br />2.054(2)(e) — Revegetation <br />1. The text at the top of revised page 2.05.4(2)(e) -2 has been omitted and is not consistent with the <br />text on the bottom of current page 2.05.4(2)(d) -1.
