and to prevent confusion,please include these additional tree plantings details in TR-126. The <br /> goal here is to have the criteria for all tree plantings in one location of the permit record. <br /> Please note, the approved aspen transplanting plan is not the subject of this revision and the <br /> aspen plan will not be subject to adequacy questions in this review. <br /> Newmont Response: <br /> Comment acknowledged. CC&V agrees that Aspens have more specific planting details above what <br /> is described for other plantings. Commitments for aspen planting criteria at closure, captured in <br /> Amendment 13, Exhibit E, are summarized below: <br /> The upper portion of the North Cresson mine area facing the City of Cripple Creek will undergo an <br /> aspen planting program. Mature (minimum 7 ft. in height) aspen stems will be transplanted at a <br /> density of approximately 400 stems per acre for an estimated ten acres. The aspen will be irrigated <br /> for two growing seasons following transplant to facilitate establishment of tree populations. <br /> Additionally, one-year Aspen seedlings will be planted with about 400 stems per acre on the north <br /> facing slopes within the North Cresson Mine area,per CC&V's approved reclamation plan. <br /> Should you require further information,please do not hesitate to contact Katie Blake at 719-689-4048 or <br /> Katie.Blake(LNewmont.com or myself at Justin.Ra lin LNewmont.com. <br /> Regards, <br /> Justin Raglin <br /> S&ER Manager <br /> Cripple Creek and Victor Gold Mining Company <br /> EC: B.
