ENVIRONMENT, INC. PAGE 11 L.G. EVERIST, INC.-WEST FARM RESERVOIR ADEQUACY RESPONSE 01 MAY 23, 2023 EXHIBIT M -Other Permits and Licenses (Rule 6.4.13): Will County permitting be required for future conveyor crossing(s)? No, this site is located in the Town of Platteville and CR 32.5 is a Town street. When the annexation agreement was approved in December 2020 the proposed conveyor crossings and equipment crossings were approved as part of that agreement. When the final Development Plan is approved LGE will make sure they are included and allowed. EXHIBIT S - Permanent Man-Made Structures (Rule 6.4.19): During review of the south line setback, we found that the gas line owned by Snyder Oil has been abandoned and the north-south section that is west and parallel to the old railroad embankment was physically removed. In addition, early this month Kerr-McGee began to plug the north well (West Farm 4-14A) in Phase 3 and will remove it and the associated gas feeder line. These structures have been removed for all maps or if abandoned are labeled as such on Map Exhibit C-2 Structures. Copies of the 3 structure agreement received as of this date are enclosed for the file. If more are received at a later date they will be provided for the file. 30) Please make sure that any adjustments made to the setbacks, armoring, and interior pit sloping methods made to the proposed mining and reclamation plans through the adequacy process are accurately reflected in the slope stability analysis provided, and/or provide a discussion as to why the submitted analysis is still valid. The existing analysis was prepared to show that the Factors of Safety are to the closest structure, in this case the slurry wall. Since the slurry walls are within the permit area the FOS for the permit boundary or any structures outside the Slurry walls would be within the FOS minimums required. Any changes to the setback or the interior pit slopes would have no impact to the FOS provided in the Slope Analysis. Additional Information: You will also need to provide the Division with proof of notice publication as well as proof of notice to surrounding property owners within 200'of the permit. Attached are copies of the return receipt cards for the notices to surrounding property owners within 200' that have been received to date. L.G. Everist, Inc. has not received 3 return receipts back, so we printed the tracking information for those items and provided a copy of the mailing receipts for cross reference. Attached is a copy of the Proof of Publication.
