Because the above referenced permit revision application may incorporate additional lands into the
permit area or might otherwise alter previously approved permit conditions or mitigation measures,
the Division is coordinating with the Office of Surface Mining on evaluation of the potential for
impacts to threatened or endangered species of plants or animals, or wildlife species otherwise
protected by federal law. A copy of the permit section addressing potential effects of the operation
to threatened and endangered (T&E) species has been forwarded to the Office of Surface Mining.
The OSM will prepare any biological assessment necessary for approval based on the information
provided in the application. The OSM will coordinate with your office as necessary. This
coordination is required to ensure mitigation of potential impacts to federally protected wildlife
species.
