This adequacy letter has been organized along the same format used in both the Regulations and the permit application. In order to avoid confusion, regulations referenced are in parentheses; the original application is referenced by page number; and the adequacy response is referenced by sections. 2.03 - Legal and Financial Compliance 1. Since officers of Dorchester Coal have changed and the contact person has also changed, page 10 of the application must be updated. 2. In order to confirm the applicant's legal right to enter as specified in Rule (2.03.6(1)), the application must state whether the rights are currently under Iitigation. 2.04.6 - Geology 1. The original adequacy comments were not addressed in Dorchester's recent response. Upon receipt of additional geological information, this section will be reevaluated. 2.09.7 - Rydrolo 1. All graphic hydrology information should be consolidated onto one map at a scale comparable to the operations plan map, 1" = 200'. 2. Wells within the permit and adjacent areas should be accurately located on the above-mentioned map. These wells include, but are not limited to: the Thompson well, the Corley wells, the Vento well and the G.E.C. tipple well. 3. The Division is concerned with the location and flow of the Florence City water line as it relates~to the mining operation. The location must be accurately determined and plotted on the above-mentioned map. 9. Dorchester must address the potential effects to water that has or is being put to beneficial use in the permit and hydrologically adjacent area. If any water source might be adversely impacted by the mining operation, alternative water supply information must be provided in accordance with Rule (2.04.7(3)). 5. If Dorchester wishes to use applicable data from the SOAP report performed by Sato and Associates, as proposed in Section 2.04.7, page 20 of the adequacy response, the information must be incorporated directly into the permit application. 2:05.3 - Operations Plan 1. As stated in the minor revision approved March Z5, I982, anticipated coal production has increased significantly from that presented on page 166 of the application. The Division is concerned with the resultant waste production increase. Coal, underground development waste and coal processing waste production must be addressed in detail in the permit application.
