Corley Comment #4 <br />Two sets of subsidence holes were inspected near the reclaimed Newlin Creek Topsoil Stockpile. Dr. <br />Corley directed the inspection team to the locations. One set of holes is approximately one fifth of a <br />mile northeast of the former stockpile, and the other set is approximately one third of a mile south of <br />the stockpile. The features in both sets appear to be a danger to livestock, and this was stated by Jack <br />Robeda, who ranches within the permit boundary and on land adjacent to it. The near surface holes <br />are approximately one foot wide and several feet long. Within these shallow features are one -foot <br />diameter holes that appear to be very deep — eight feet or possibly much deeper. <br />Response to Comment #4 <br />This issue has been resolved. <br />Corley Comment #S <br />The 2012 subsidence repair area near the Thompson driveway was inspected. A significant amount <br />of Mullein and cheat grass were seen. Dr. Corley pointed out what is possibly a new subsidence hole. <br />It is next to a large fallen tree and is approximately two feet deep in places (at the time of inspection). <br />Response to Comment #S <br />These issues have been resolved. <br />Corley Comment #6 <br />Section of steel pipe at the south end of the facilities area need to be removed. <br />Response to Comment #6 <br />This issue has been resolved. <br />Corley Comment #7 <br />The fire area on the Corley Ranch was inspected. Dr. Corley showed DRMS new cracks that have <br />developed, and, per Dr. Corley, these are at the edge of the area pillared by EFCI. Some areas were <br />smoking. (An assessment by DRMS of the Southfield Permanent Closure Map reveals that Dr. <br />Corley's statement about the fire being at the edge of the pillared area is accurate.) <br />Response to Comment #7 <br />This issue has been resolved. <br />Corley Comment #8 <br />The area south of Magpie Diversion Ditch was inspected. Per Dr. Corley, this ditch was built by <br />digging through the highwall of the Lloyd Beers Mine. The ditch also acts as a pathway for runoff <br />and sediment from the GEC gullies to Magpie Creek. <br />Response to Comment #8 <br />This issue has been resolved. <br />Corley Comment #9 <br />Near the intersection of CR15 and CR92, remnants of an old sign need to be removed. These include <br />concrete pads and rebar. <br />Response to Comment #9 <br />This issue has been resolved. <br />Southfield Mine C-1981-014 Page 4 of 12 August 22, 2016 <br />SL -04 <br />
