The responses are formatted to match the order of the <br /> comments received. <br /> In addition,this letter provides a response to issues noted during the August 12,2020 pre-operation <br /> inspection. These responses are provided in the last section of the letter. <br /> Rule 6.4.1 Exhibit A—Legal Description <br /> 1. Kiewit's intent with this 112c application is to permit the entire section (consisting of 640 <br /> acres) within the permit boundary. The area listed in paragraph 3 of the application form, <br /> being 541 acres, is the original estimate of the area to be mined after deducting for the <br /> buffers around Lone Tree Creek and the various cultural resources found on site. However, <br /> Kiewit desires that the entire 640 acres be included in the permit boundary as it may be <br /> potentially affected by mining operations. In order to clarify this, a new page 1 of the <br /> application form listing the correct permitted acreage amount of 640 acres is attached. <br /> 2. An updated Exhibit A specifying the parcel number for the proposed permit area is <br /> attached. There is no address for the property. <br /> 3. An updated Exhibit A specifying the coordinates of the main entrance to the site is attached. <br /> Rule 6.4.2 Exhibit B—Index May <br /> 4.
