The Q-2 MPO was originally received on <br /> March 17, 2017 and has since undergone a completeness review. I appreciate your submission of <br /> a revised MPO that addressed the Forest Service's concerns and included some additional <br /> information. <br /> It is my determination that the revised Q-2 MPO received on May 15, 2017 covers the <br /> requirements of the regulations (36 CFR 228.4(c)) and will be added to the Forest's program of <br /> work. An interdisciplinary (ID)team will be assigned to analyze and disclose the environmental <br /> impacts from the proposed activity, as required under the National Environmental Policy Act <br /> (NEPA). This analysis will include the consideration of comments solicited from the public and <br /> from other cooperating agencies. Following completion of the NEPA analysis, you will either <br /> appeal and/or accept any mitigations the Forest deems necessary to minimize adverse impacts, in <br /> addition to posting an acceptable reclamation bond in accordance with 36 CFR 228.13. <br /> As a reminder, you are responsible for obtaining any other regulatory agency permits necessary <br /> for the proposed activity. <br /> If you have further questions,please contact Amy Titterington, Geologist, at 719-836-2031 or <br /> email her at amyjtitterington@fs.fed.us. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> /0/4/-1 <br /> JOSHUA S.
