Dep?. of ?!aiure: "osc~irc°~ <br />Re Inspection Report, Reclamation Pit #l, MLR File No. 77-153 <br />This letter responds to the recommendations that accompanied your <br />December 14, 1981 Inspection Report. The numbering system corres- <br />ponds to your list of recommendations. <br />1• A Technical Revision will be submitted in January 1982. <br />2. On December 23, 1981 we telephoned 67r. Paul Meale, State Water <br />Commissioner for District 1. He advised there are no water <br />rights in or to Bull Seep (Ditch). <br />3. The amount of topsoil needed was overestimated originally. Of <br />course, all this changed with the first technical revision. It <br />is expected that 8 to 12 inches of soil will be respread on the <br />area to be revegetated. According to our estimates, 22. 7f acres <br />will be revegetated. The total soil required calculates to be <br />between 24,400 and 36,600 cubic yards. We plan to preserve <br />35,000 cubic yards. Designated stockpiles, which will receive <br />appropriate care, will continue to be located along the peri- <br />meter areas. Approximately 130,.000 yards of material stockpiled <br />at the west end may or may not be adequate for recoiling. We <br />contend it is adequate. Tests are being performed to determine <br />the usefulness of the material. We will keep you advised. In <br />any case, at least 35,000 cubic yards of topsoil will be retained <br />on site so that the required topsoiling can be accomplished. <br />4. Thank you. In 1982, prior to the time when the weed crop drops <br />seeds, the area will be mowed very carefully so as not to injure <br />the trees. <br />5. We tend to concur for our own reasons. However, we would appre- <br />ciate a full explanation of your reasoning. <br />6. We understand the purpose of this recommendation and will give <br />the idea careful consideration. <br />7. We believe these inspections can prove beneficial to all. We <br />particularly appreciate being permitted to invite some of our <br />key people to participate with you. <br />Yours truly, <br />G~~ ~" 4'J ~~ t <br />Albert R.
