• This exhibit is apparently intended to show the owners of all structures within 200 feet <br /> of the new affected area boundary (coincident with the permit boundary). Given the <br /> course topographic background and section lines, it is extremely difficult to check that <br /> all appropriate structure owners are included. Furthermore, given the proximity to <br /> numerous residences, complexity of the boundary, and remoteness of some boundary <br /> segments, field checking this would also prove to be overwhelmingly time consuming. <br /> A quick check using Google Earth satellite imagery suggests some structures may have <br /> been overlooked, for example there is a structure about 850 feet west of Grassy Valley <br /> monitoring wells GVMW-22B & GVMW-22A along Beaver Valley Rd <br /> (38°44'26.24"N, 105° 6'51.04"W)that is almost certainly within the affected area <br /> boundary. Be aware that wells, fences, streets and roads are permanent man-made <br /> structures that need to be identified in accordance with Rule 6.4.3(g). Please revise the <br /> map to include a background such as that used for Drawing C-4b, so that an adequate <br /> inclusion of appropriate structures can be evaluated.Also, please double check <br /> structures in the area to be sure all appropriate structures are included. <br /> RESPONSE:See revised Drawing C-la in Attachment 1. Additional structures <br /> identified by a detailed review using aerial photography have been added. <br /> • TR-69 and AR-01 were submitted and approved to address the new radio tower <br /> location. Drawing C-la appears to show the radio tower(in Section 30) is now outside <br /> the permit/affected area boundary. Please provide an explanation. <br /> RESPONSE: TR-69 and AR-01 are correct. The location of the radio tower is within <br /> the current Amendment 10 and proposed Amendment 11 permit boundary. Drawing C- <br /> 1 a relied on parcels to identify property owners with manmade structures within 200 feet <br /> of the boundary. The parcel of land on which the radio tower is located cuts across the <br /> permit boundary. The radio tower has been removed from Drawing C-1 a to avoid <br /> further confusion. <br /> • R0055878 CC&V Pavilions—this drawing shows this parcel (in Section 29) is partly <br /> inside and partly outside the permit/affected area boundary. If mining related activity <br /> is conducted in this area, it must be included in the affected area boundary. Please <br /> provide an explanation. <br /> RESPONSE: The property in question is an historic site located in Vindicator Valley. <br /> No current mining activity is occurring or being proposed at this location. The name <br /> "Pavilions"is what is recorded on the Teller County assessor site and does not refer to <br /> any specific active CC&V mine structure. <br /> 5. Drawing <br /> • There are numerous utility alignments identified on this drawing [Rule 6.4.3(b)]. <br /> Pursuant to Rule 6.4.20(c)/Exhibit T the Division may require statements from <br /> utilities "that the mining and reclamation activities, as proposed, will have "no <br /> negative effect" on their utility". Please identify or distinguish which buildings and <br /> utilities are owned by CC&V and which are owned by another entity. <br /> RESPONSE: A revised Drawing C-3 is included in Attachment 1, which shows the <br /> ownership of utility lines, all of which are owned by Black Hills Energy. CC&V has <br /> been working with Black Hills Energy for a number of years to coordinate utility line <br /> Page 5 of 30 <br />
