Page 3 Preliminary Adequacy - Apex No. 2 April 20, 1981 under Rule 2,05.6). A surface and alluvial groundwater monitoring point must be proposed immediately down stream from the mine. 2.04.7(2) A copy of table E11-7 and the Dames and Moore (1975) study ~~ ~~ must be included in the application if this information is to be considered in the review process. The data for average annual runoff in Trout Creek for 1958-1981 should be submitted. 2.04.9 Proceeding on the assumption that no further surface dis- turbance is planned, the Division will not require any more detailed information regarding soils resources. In the event that further surface disturbance is proposed, sampling and analysis of the affected soils will be necessary. Soils analysis of reclamation soils will be required prior to the final recla- mation and revegetation phases. 2.04.10 A vegetation map which delineates plant communities in the areas adjacent to the disturbed area should be submitted to the Division and incorporated into SMC's seed mix discussion. An aerial photograph of the site could very easily be adapted to this purpose. A qualitative description of the adjacent vegetative communities and the controlling environmental elements must be supplied. Standards for use in evaluating revegetation success must be established. The presence of threatened and/or endangered species must be discussed for the subject area in site specific terms. 2.04.12 Based on the facts that the affected areas have never (histori- cally) been used as cropland and that the SCS has not identified any appropriate soils in the affected areas, the Division accepts the applicant's assertion that the subject area is not prime farmland. 2.05.3(3)(c) A description of the roads must be presented in the appli- cation to include width, gradient, surfacing, cut/fill, stability, and erosion control. A description of measures to be used to ensure that the interests of the public and affected landowners are protected where the applicant seeks to have the Division approve the proposal to conduct mining activities within 100 feet of the right-of-way line of any public road must be included in the application. 2.05.3(4) A plan for modification of ditch D10 to prevent excessive erosion related to the high design flow velocity must be pre- sented. The applicant must provide further explanation and supporting information to justify the metholody by which sediment pond detention time has been calculated.
