RESPONSE. CC&V has always worked closely with SHPO to document and preserve <br /> historic features in the area and will continue coordinating its efforts with the agency. A <br /> detailed historic resource survey was performed on the Amendment 11 areas, which will <br /> be submitted to Teller County in mid-October as part of the Mine Development Plan <br /> amendment application. <br /> 6.4.3 EXHIBIT C—PRE MINING AND MINING MAPS OF AFFECTED LANDS <br /> 1. The legend on the Drawing C-la Permit Boundary and Adjacent Land Owners with Permanent <br /> Manmade Structure(Rev.2) indicates the permit boundary is a blue line and the 200-foot buffer <br /> is a red line. The permit boundary and the 200-foot buffer are both red lines on the map. Please <br /> submit an updated Drawing C-la which corrects this error. <br /> RESPONSE. A revised Drawing C-1 a was submitted on September 28, 2016 in <br /> response to DRMS's July 13, 2016 adequacy review comments. Please refer to <br /> Attachment I of that submittal for the revised drawing, which addresses the comment <br /> above. <br /> 6.4.5 EXHIBIT E—RECLAMATION PLAN <br /> 2. Table 5-4 Growth Medium Storage Areas,on page 5-6 and 5-7 of Volume I, states that <br /> stockpile designated 30 is likely to be relocated or used in concurrent reclamation. Please <br /> identify where this stockpile is likely to be relocated to.In accordance with Rule 3.1.9(4), once <br /> stockpiled,the topsoil should be rehandled as little as possible until replacement on the <br /> regraded,disturbed area. <br /> RESPONSE. This is the same language presented in Table 5-4 as approved under <br /> Amendment 10 and was included to provide flexibility in case this particular storage <br /> area required relocating. It is the only storage area with such a note and to date the <br /> storage area has not needed to be relocated. Newmont acknowledges that topsoil should <br /> be handled as little as possible per Rule 3.1.9(4). A Technical Revision will be submitted <br /> to DRMS should the need to relocate this stockpile arise. <br /> 3. Additionally,Table 5-4 lists stockpiles designated 27/27A,but 27A is not indicated on the <br /> Drawing C-4b: Growth Medium Storage Locations. Please Clarify this.Note,stockpile <br /> designated lA/1B is listed on Table 5-4 and is shown as two separate areas on the drawing. <br /> RESPONSE. Growth Media Storage Area 27A was proposed in Amendment 10 as an <br /> expansion of Growth Media Storage Area 27 as presented in Table 5-4 from Amendment <br /> 10. However, the storage area was represented on Amendment 10 Drawing C-4b as one <br /> Growth Media Storage Area 27. A revised Table 5-4 is provided in Attachment 2 to <br /> reflect Growth Media Storage Area 2 712 7A as one location. <br /> Growth Media Storage Area 1 was proposed under Amendment 10 to serve as a visual <br /> and noise berm for the Globe Hill Schist Island(North Cresson) mine areas. As part of <br /> Amendment H, the noise berm was extended to the south, which became Growth Media <br /> Storage Area 1 B. As Growth Media Storage Areas 1 A and 1 B serve the same purpose, <br /> Newmont would prefer to maintain Table 5-4 as is unless DRMS has a regulatory reason <br /> for why it should be presented differently. <br /> 4. Please clarify if there is a growth medium stockpile at the Carlton Tunnel area. The location and <br /> size of the stockpile should be indicated on Drawing C-4b: Growth Medium Storage Locations <br /> and Table 5-4 Growth Medium Storage Areas. <br /> Page 5 of 14 <br />
