Mine", submitted as a revised map with this permitting action on 5 April 2023, TMI must submit the <br /> following: <br /> 1. A minor revision that includes the results of a cultural resources inventory conducted on the <br /> 25.4 acres located in the L pit and the 4 acres near the J Pit area as shown on permit map <br /> M45. These cultural survey results shall be submitted from the cultural resources specialist <br /> who conducted the inventory in the form of a full inventory report or a statement of findings. <br /> The inventory must be a class III cultural resource inventory completed by a cultural resource <br /> specialist who meets the Secretary of Interior's Standards. The results must indicate if any <br /> cultural and historic resources listed or eligible to be listed on the National Register of <br /> Historic Places and any significant known archaeological sites were identified during the <br /> inventory per Rule 2.04.4. If any are identified, TMI must revise the permit to include the <br /> required information to satisfy Rule 2.05.6(4)prior to affecting this area. If no resources are <br /> identified, once the minor revision is approved and issued, TMI could proceed to affect this <br /> area. <br /> 2. If the minor revision discussed above only included a statement of findings describing the <br /> results of the inventory, TMI shall submit a separate minor revision that includes the full <br /> detailed inventory report prepared by the cultural resource specialist. <br /> Appendix A, at the end of this document provides views depicting the locations of stipulated areas <br /> extracted from Trapper Mine's Map 45, "Cultural Resources Surveys Conducted on and Adjacent to <br /> the Trapper Mine", submitted with the PRl 1 permitting action. <br /> Summary <br /> Utah International Inc. began exploration drilling operations for Trapper Mine in 1954 to obtain <br /> geologic information on the structure of coalbeds and estimates of mineable coal reserves. In 1973, <br /> Utah International Inc. and four electric utilities signed a contract for delivery of coal to fuel the <br /> Craig Generating Station. This coal delivery obligation of approximately I I I million tons over a 52 <br /> year period required strip mining six to seven thousand acres of land since the mining activities <br /> began in 1976. <br /> Environmental studies for the Trapper Mine began in 1972 and intensified in 1973 and 1974. Most <br /> of those studies will continue throughout the life of the project. Trapper Mine endeavors to reclaim <br /> disturbed lands to as good as or better condition than before mining. A high priority is attached to <br /> the reclamation programs, all of which are designed to protect wildlife, water, air quality and other <br /> environmental resources of the mine area. <br /> The shop and warehouse buildings were completed in November 1975, while the office complex was <br /> completed in November of 1976. The construction of the first of three, 30 cubic yard walking <br /> draglines started in February 1976. <br /> Actual mining operations began in May, 1977, and coal deliveries started in August 1978. <br /> The original owner of Trapper Mine was Utah International, Inc. an international mining company. <br /> All initial permitting and mining efforts were performed by Utah International. In July 1982, Utah <br /> International formed the subsidiary, Trapper Mining Inc. to consolidate and hold the properties and <br /> 3 <br />
