1 <br />alluvial valley floors. Most of the disturbance is within the Fish Creek drainage, <br />' and, as indicated on Map TR-3, it would be located outside of the area identified as <br />unconsolidated stream laid deposits. Therefore, the proposed operations would not <br />interrupt, discontinue, or preclude farming on the potential AVF. <br />The sediment control plan would control runoff from the existing surface <br />disturbance and would be expected to improve the existing quality of runoff leaving <br />the minesite. No mine pit water or water from underground workings would be <br />i , discharged through Pond E. Therefore, the activities considered in this technical <br />revision would not cause material damage to the surface and ground water that <br />t supply the potential alluvial valley floors. <br />RESPONSE: <br />No response necessary. <br />' OTHER <br />1. The applicant does not address topsoil salvaging plans. The requirements <br />' of Rule 4.06 should be addressed. <br />' RESPONSE: <br />Very little topsoil exists on the area to be disturbed by construction of the <br />' sedimentation pond, due to previous surface disturbance. A Barrow pit <br />adjacent to the construction area will be utilized to obtain soil material for <br />the construction of the pond dam. <br />1 <br />Topsoil existing on the Barrow pit area will be salvaged by windrowing it off to <br />' the side of the disturbance. .Sfter removal of the dam construction material, <br />the Barrow pit will be regraded to blend into the surrounding area. Topsoil <br />' will then be replaced over the disturbed area and broadcast seeded. <br />' Where the topsoil exists in the pond construction area, it will be pushed out of <br />the way. After completion of pond construction, topsoil that was removed will <br />' be replaced and broadcast seeded. <br /> <br /> 4 <br /> <br />
