Mr. Brock Bowles <br />September 11, 2015 <br />Page 2 <br />2.04.6 — Geology Description <br />1) Section 2.04.6, page 1 of the permit references Coal Mining Permit C-81-008 for baseline surface <br />and groundwater quality data. It is suggested that this information be incorporated into permit <br />C-2010-089, as permit C-1981-008 may be terminated prior to permit C-2010-089 being <br />terminated. <br />Response: WFC acknowledges the Division's suggestion to incorporate appropriate baseline <br />surface and groundwater quality data into permit C-2010-089 from permit C-1981-008. This <br />information will be incorporated into permit C-2010-089 at a later date through a technical <br />revision prior to permit C-1981-008 being terminated. <br />2.04.7(2) — Baseline Hydrology Description <br />1) The last sentence of Rule 2.04.7(2) (a) states that the permit application shall contain information <br />pertaining to ownership and use of surface water bodies. Map 2.04.3-1 depicts the location of <br />surface water bodies in and adjacent to the permit area. There is also a discussion of stock water <br />ponds, on page 21 of Section 2.04.7, that is limited to a discussion of how they will be affected <br />with the diversion of the 2nd Park Lateral, but no description of the ownership of the stock ponds. <br />It does not appear that the approved permit application has provided sufficient information <br />pertaining to ownership and use of surface water bodies. Please either revise the permit <br />application to include a description of the ownership and use of surface water bodies, or indicate <br />where the information is located in the currently approved permit application package. <br />Response: The text in Section 2.04.7 has been changed to indicate that all surface water bodies <br />shown on Map 2.04.3-1 are owned by the surface landowners. Also, Map 2.04.3-1 has been <br />updated with surface landowner information. <br />2.04.9 — Soils Resource Information <br />1) In the opening paragraph, it states that Permit C-1981-008 was approved in May of 1993. The <br />Division's records indicate that it was approved in 1983. Please correct this typo in the text. <br />Response: The text has been changed to indicate that Permit C-1981-008 was approved in 1983. <br />2) On page 27 second paragraph, it states that the Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers <br />Wetlands Delineation Manual: Arid West Region was issued in 2205. Please clam the date of <br />issue for this supplement and correct the text. <br />Response: The text has been changed to indicate that the supplement was issued in 2005. <br />ANE_OUAL OPPGR7'UNlTY/AEEIRtt4ATIVEACTIONEk)PLOYER <br />A Touchstone Energy' Cooperativeit <br />
