<br />24D. Figure 2.2-3 clearly shows sediment control measures for <br />the topsoil stockpile. No changes were made to this <br />figure. <br />24E. Groundwater and surface water monitoring is addressed in <br />Sections 4.2.5 and 4.2.7 respectively. Figure 4.2-2 shows <br />monitoring site locations. <br />24F. Sections 2.4 and 4.2 explain that there will be a very <br />minimal impact on the hydrology in the mine plan and <br />adjacent area. <br />24G. No water supplies will be impacted by this operation, as <br />is detailed in this application. <br />24H. All hydrologic control measures are identified in Section <br />2,4,1 and shown on Figure 2.2-3, <br />24I. Obviously, when rills and gullies form, the area will be <br />regraded and reseeded after the cause for such features <br />is determined and appropriate corrective action can be <br />taken. As to the question of "excessive sedimentation" <br />the commentor is referred to State and Federal regulations. <br />25. The improvement of a road is the only activity proposed on <br />the alluvial valley floor and is of no consequence to this <br />undeveloped rangeland. An expanded narrative is provided <br />in Section 4.1.2.5. <br />26a. Figure 2.1-3 has been provided to address the subareas and <br />sequence of development presently anticipated. Figure 2.1-1 <br />remains in the document to satisfy its original intended <br />purpose. <br />26b. Figure 2.1-3 shows the sequence of development and there- <br />fore related affected land as defined in State and Federal <br />regulations. Figure 2.2-1 shows affected and proposed <br />affected land in the sense of physically altered land which <br />will be covered under a performance bond. <br />Page 16 <br />26c. Figure 2.1-3 has been added to reflect SEI responses to <br />previous comments. <br />26d. Figure 2.2-1 outlines the areas to be covered under a <br />performance bond. Further information can be retrieved <br />from Figure 2.1-3 and in Section 2.1.9 of the text. <br />27a. The plan contains sufficient information on roads and con- <br />veyors within the permit area. The proposed conveyor system, <br />which consists of a 70 foot distance from the arch to the <br />portable crusher, has been identified. <br />-7- <br />
