access to the mine will be secured to prohibit unauthorized persons from entering the site. <br /> Unforseeable events such as strikes, fuel shortages, major equipment failures and others could possibly <br /> cause all or part of the mining and reclamation operations to cease temporarily. It is unlikely that ces- <br /> sation of operations as a result of these types of events would be excessive but it could be of indeter- <br /> minate length. However, once it is determined that a temporary shutdown has or will occur and that it will <br /> exceed thirty days, Trapper Mining Inc. will begin compiling the information that will be included in the <br /> notice of temporary cessation of operations. Within thirty days thereof, the completed notice of temporary <br /> cessation of operations will be submitted. <br /> Thirty days are needed to insure that there is enough time to gather, compile and transmit the required <br /> information since extensive surveying must be conducted. The 30-day period will allow enough time for <br /> the information to be gathered, compiled and submitted to the regulatory authority in a complete and <br /> accurate form. <br /> 3.1.7 Permanent Cessation of Operations <br /> Permanent cessation of operations will occur after reserves in the mine plan area are exhausted. The <br /> existing fuel agreement between Trapper Mining Inc. and the utility companies requires coal deliveries to <br /> continue through the year 2020. Permanent cessation of operations during the life of this proposed permit <br /> is therefore highly unlikely and is not a part of any current mine plans. If for some unforeseen reason, <br /> permanent cessation of operations should become imminent, Trapper Mining Inc. will inform the <br /> appropriate regulatory authorities. <br /> Notice of permanent cessation of operations will include: <br /> -The number of acres affected during the mining and reclamation operations. <br /> -The extent and type of reclamation accomplished. <br /> - Identification of those structures that will be removed and those that will be retained. <br /> MAY 21 2013 <br /> 3-17 <br /> @ Vr:;d' _ <br />
