With TR -68, NECC proposed (and the Division approved) a variance regarding the revegetation <br />plan and success criteria. In particularly, the establishment of shrubs will focus on clumps, which is <br />believed to be more realistic than the prior plan. The Colorado Parks and Wildlife approved this <br />revision to the plan for shrubs. <br />XII. Post -mining Land Use <br />No specific approvals are granted for this section. <br />XIII. Protection of Fish, Wildlife and Related Environmental Values <br />Fish and wildlife habitat is a planned post -mining land use. The applicant has selected <br />appropriate plant species and distributions to benefit fish and wildlife. The reclamation plan calls <br />for restoration of much of the rangeland along the Purgatoire River to riparian vegetation. The <br />RDA will be reclaimed to upland wildlife habitat, which includes the establishment of shrub <br />species (4.18(5)(i)). Pond 004A and Pond 08 will be retained as permanent ponds for use by <br />wildlife. <br />XIV. Protection of Underground Mining <br />No specific approvals are granted for this section. <br />XV. Subsidence Control <br />No specific approvals are granted for this section. <br />XVI. Concurrent Surface and Underground Mining <br />No specific approvals are granted for this section. <br />XVII. Operations on Alluvial Valley Floors <br />The Division has determined that two alluvial valley floors exist within the affected or adjacent <br />area: Stonewall Valley AVF and Picketwire Valley AVF, both located in the Purgatoire River <br />Valley. For these two AVFs, the Division has made the following findings. <br />• The Division finds that activities proposed by the applicant will not interrupt, <br />discontinue, or preclude farming on the alluvial valley floors that are irrigated or <br />naturally subirrigated (4.24.3(l)). <br />New Elk Mine <br />Findings for RN -06, May 11, 2017 <br />15 <br />
