<br />2 <br /> <br /> <br />6.4.3 Exhibit C – Pre mining and Mining Plan Map(s) of Affected Lands <br />N1. Drawing C-4. Contour elevation labels are missing on Drawing C-4 that would <br />confirm elevations discussed in the narrative portions of the application. <br />Please include appropriate contour elevation labels to determine elevations <br />from this drawing. <br /> <br />Response: CC&V updated Drawing C-4 to include contour elevation labels and is <br />included in Attachment 1. <br /> <br />6.4.5 Exhibit F – Reclamation Plan Map <br />N2. Drawing F-1. Contour elevation labels are missing on Drawing F-1 that would <br />confirm elevations discussed in the narrative portions of the application. Please <br />include appropriate contour elevation labels to determine elevations from this <br />drawing. <br /> <br />Response: CC&V updated Drawing F-1 to include contour elevation labels as well <br />as other modifications requested in Adequacy Comments received by the Division <br />dated October 19, 2016. An updated drawing F-1 was submitted to the Division as <br />Attachment 1 to Follow-up Adequacy Responses Dated December 16, 2016. <br /> <br />6.4.21 Exhibit U – Designated Mining Operation Environmental Protection Plan <br />N3. Height Discrepancy. The following discrepancies need to be resolved to the <br />Division’s satisfaction: <br />a. Section 4.2 Topography and Elevation. On page 4-1, last paragraph there is <br />a statement that the maximum (natural) elevation of the project is at the crest <br />of the hill east of the East Cresson Mine (ECM) area which is approximately <br />10,450 feet (amsl). <br /> <br />Response: Upon further review, the maximum (natural) elevation of the project is <br />the top of Bull Hill, located between the Main Cresson Pit and the ECOSA, which <br />is approximately 10,810 feet (amsl) and as shown in Drawing C-4. Bull Cliffs is <br />the next highest maximum (natural) elevation, immediately southeast of the East <br />Cresson Backfill (aka Altman Backfill), which is approximately 10,740 feet (amsl). <br />A copy of revised Drawing C-4 is provided in Attachment 1. <br /> <br />b. Section 5.6 Overburden Handling and Control. Page 5-17, at the end of second <br />paragraph, it is stated “Upon completion, the reclaimed ECOSA will blend <br />with backfilled portions of the East Cresson Mine areas.” The Division notes <br />that based on the USGS quadrangle map for the area, the elevation northwest of <br />the peak ranged roughly between 10,500 and 10,600 feet (amsl) before this area
