C� <br />Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining & Safety <br />March 31, 2016 <br />Page 6 <br />language has been added to Rule 2 page 15 indicating that the geologic conditions of the Collom <br />Pit are the same as the current operation. <br />The Dodd and Dodd report cited was related to the Little Collom X pit, specifically in regards to <br />an underground mining evaluation of the X seam. Since PR -04 is specifically applying to <br />remove the Little Collom X Pit from the mine plan, the Dodd and Dodd report is no longer <br />applicable. Therefore, it has not been provided as requested, and the citation to it within Volume <br />1, Section 2.03.3(1-5) has been removed. <br />ITEM 74. This item has not yet been adequately addressed. Because Map IOB is given the title <br />HYDROLOGIC FEATURES and MONITORING LOCATIONS, it should show all current and <br />former monitoring wells. Please update Map IOB to show the locations of all wells in Table <br />2.04.7-38. Please also update the text in Volume 15, Rule 2, Page 21. (The currently proposed <br />text refers to Map 11 C, which is presumably an error. Please check this.) <br />Response: Map 1013 has been updated with the DH and DHH series wells that are included on <br />Table 2.04.7-38. Well DHSS -78-1 was not added to Map 1013 as the location of the well is <br />unknown. A northing and easting is available for Well DHSS -78-1 in Exhibit 7, Item 21, but it <br />is not on Colowyo's corrected state plane coordinate system, and Colowyo does not have any <br />other data on the location of this well. All other wells listed on Table 2.04.7-38 were already <br />shown on Map 1013. <br />Table 2.04.7-38 has been updated with two notes. The first note indicates that the DH, DHH, and <br />DHSS series wells were drilled by Utah International in the 1970's. Colowyo did not conduct <br />the drilling program, and as noted in Exhibit 7, Item 21 Section 5.2.1, the well information for <br />these wells was utilized for historic information. A second note has been added that specifies <br />that the location of DHSS -78-1 is unknown. <br />Finally, in Volume 15, Rule 2, Page 22 (not 21 as the Division cites) the reference to Map I IC <br />has been removed as it was not appropriately cited. <br />ITEM 75. This item has not yet been adequately addressed. Monitoring well completion <br />information should be consolidated and readily located in the PAP. Exhibit 7, Item 21, Appendix <br />5A provides completion information for the MMC -04 sequence of wells. Appendix SB provides <br />completion information for five of the valley fill wells: MS -04-01, MS -04-02, MC -04-01, MC -04- <br />02, and MLC -04-01. The proposed footnote to table 2.04.7-38 should include a reference to <br />completion information for the remaining wells in the table, to be found within the PAP. <br />Response: Well completion information for the Collom monitoring wells including MC -04-01, <br />MC -04-02, MJ -95-01, and MJ -95-01 has been compiled and is presented in Exhibit 7, Item 21A <br />AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY /ArFIRNIATME ACT/ON EMPLOYER <br />A Touchstone Energy' Cooperative <br />
