ME <br />Mr. Brock Bowles <br />March 27, 2017 <br />Page 3 <br />2. DRMS notes on page 4, the Alternative Water Supplies section states that 23 shares of water are <br />secured, while the current April 2011 version states that 27 shares are secured. Please advise DRMS <br />if indeed the shares secured were reduced from 27 in 2011 to 23 in 2017. <br />Response: The Alternative Water Supplies section has been revised to indicate that ERMR has <br />secured 27 shares of water, which is consistent with the current 2011 version. <br />Section 4.18 — Protection of Fish and Wildlife <br />1. Section 2.05.6(2) includes a mitigation plan to the impact of mining on Burrowing Owls and <br />identifies additional impacts to other species and wetlands. Depending on the response to the above <br />mentioned adequacy comment associated with Rule 2.04. 11 and 2.05.6(2), additional mitigation <br />measures may be required. If the T&E species list has changed, please provide an updated mitigation <br />plan to address the protection offish and wildlife. <br />Response: Since the T&E species list in Appendix 2.05.6(2)-1 has not changed as part of this renewal <br />application; no changes to the mitigation plans addressing protection of fish and wildlife should be <br />required. <br />Also included with this adequacy response package are materials revised in response to your adequacy <br />comments and a change of index sheet to ease incorporation of this material into the permit document. If <br />you have any questions regarding the enclosed adequacy review responses, please contact Tony Tennyson <br />at (970) 824-1232 or ttennyson;d)tristategt.org. <br />Sincerely, <br />d <br />Daniel J.
