Response 1b. CC&V has confirmed the blue drainage direction arrows on Figure 2 are <br />intended to indicate the general direction of runoff and not that runoff will flow other than <br />perpendicular to the contour lines. Please see the revised Figure 2 in Attachment 1. <br />Response 1c. CC&V commits to incorporating the TR -96 grading for the WHEX backfill <br />into the site -wide reclamation redesign of heap leach pads and overburden storage area <br />plans to manage stormwater in such a way as to control erosion in accordance with Rules <br />3.1.5(3) AND 3.1.6(3). As agreed upon with DRMS, this site -wide reclamation redesign is <br />planned for submittal as part of the next Amendment process. <br />F__igures. <br />2. Scales. Both Figures 1 and 2 provide a scale bar and a scale ratio (i.e., 1:4800). Using an <br />engineering scale (I inch — 40 feet), it was estimated the scale of the drawings as received by the <br />Division was closer to 1:4500, or 1 inch = 375 feet. The Division was able to compensate and no <br />fierther response is necessary. However, for f tture submittals, please ensure the scale and scale <br />bar are consistent on the submitted figures. <br />Comment noted. <br />Financial Warranty, <br />3. The proposed bond increase of $355,964 for the additional earthwork and 45 acres of <br />revegetation appears adequate. Please be aware this antotent exceeds the current surplus bond of <br />$162,648 CCc&V currently has with the Division. Assuming no significant changes to this TR as a <br />result of responding to this adequacy letter and the Division approves TR -96, the additional <br />$193,316 bond will be due 60 days from the date of the approval letter. <br />Comment noted. <br />Should you require further information please do not hesitate to contact Clara Steward at 719.689.4313 or <br />myself at 719.689.4055 or Mi _ Burtia.newmont.com. <br />Sinc rely, <br />Meg Burt <br />Senior Environmental Manager <br />Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Co <br />MB/cbs <br />Ec: T.
