<br />Requirement No. 12 <br />THE APPLICANT MUST SUBMIT A MAP SHOWING THE EXISTING <br />LIGHT-Q.SE ROADS USED TO ACCESS MONITORING FACILITIES. IN <br />ADDITION, THE INFORMATION REQUIRED BY RULE 4.03.3 MUST BE <br />SUBMITTED. IF ANY OF THESE ROADS ARE NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH <br />RULE 4.03.3, A PLAN TO BRING THEM INTO COMPLIANCE MUST BE <br />SUBMITTED." <br />SRM Response: <br />The light duty roads used to access monitoring facilities by <br />Storm Ring Mines were constructed as part of the exploration <br />program or were pre-existing. These roads continue to provide <br />the company with the means to perform the water monitoring as <br />required. Operation plan maps, Figures 4.2-3, 4.2-4 and 4.2-5 <br />have been revised to accurately delineate these light duty roads. <br />Storm Ring requests a joint inspection with MLRD of the light <br />duty roads used for monitoring, to determine their compliance <br />with Rule 4.03.3. This inspection can be performed as soon as it <br />is convenient for MLR, and as weather and site conditions permit. <br />During this inspection any areas which are determined to be in <br />non-compliance with 4.03.3 will be addressed. Storm King Mines <br />will commit to the necessary work required to place the light <br />duty road system in compliance within 9 months of permit <br />issuance. Prior to any re-construction or repair of light duty <br />roads, plans will be submitted to MLR for their approval. <br />Because the land owners have requested that Storm Ring Mines <br />retain these roads after mine closure, it is proposed that these <br />roads be exempt from reclamation as outlined in Rule 4.03.3(7). <br />Please see attached land owner letters. <br />12) Ref: Bonding - Rule 2.05.4(21(bl and Rule 3 <br />MLR Comment: <br />"The Division currently cannot make a finding concerning bonding. <br />The following information must be submitted before the Division <br />can approve the permit application: <br />Requirement No. 13 <br />THE APPLICANT MUST SUBMIT AN ESTIMATE OF THE COST OF REMOVING <br />ALL STRUCTURES IN THE PROPOSED PERMIT AREA, INCLUDING <br />PIPELINES AND TRANSMISSION LINES.
