This <br />section is actually discussed in more detail under section <br />2.05.4(2)d (topsail redistribution). The concern is with <br />Potentially acid forming materials and how they will be handled to <br />mitigate potential acidic overburden. The operator indicates that <br />by mixing with a buffering spoil that any problems will be avoided. <br />This may be true but I Would like to see the data an the acid base <br />potential if one was run showing that any acid material would be <br />neutralized by an appropriate amount of basic material. <br />Soils Resource Information <br />"- Previously under this section <br />Farmland had been identified in; he area.en DThe curr nteorneratorinernme <br />cis laims that no prime farmlandexist in the area to be mined. This <br />supported by the local SCS in a letter to Andy Boudreau dated <br />October 14, 1992. The letter states that only one soil has the <br />potential to be prime and only if irrigated with a dependable <br />supply of water. The letter then states that there is not a <br />dependable supply of water and therefore the unit <br />However, throughout is not prime. <br />the various sail and vegetation sections <br />numerous references are made to the wet soils and irrigated crops <br />in the area and even to the fact that some soils may not be able to <br />be salvaged due to their wetness etc., etc. Based on this <br />conflicting information this area (prime farmlands) will need to be <br />addressed and the whole issue clarified before approval., <br />
