<br />Rule 2.05.6(2) Fish and Wildlife Plau <br />111. Attached please find the cortunents received from the Division of Wildlife concerning the <br />mining proposal. Rather than re-wording their comments into specific questions, I felt <br />it would be best at this time to have you review their concerns and provide responses or <br />feedback as best you can to the issues raised. I believe a number of them can be <br />adequately handled through some additional communication between DMG and DOW. <br />Some other concerns, however, have bigger implications (shrubs, shortage of topsoil, etc.) <br />and will likely require getting together to discuss these issues in more detail. <br />l l la. On page 2.05-81 LCC states that longwall mining will occur. As this is proposed to be <br />a room and pillar mine, this statement needs to be corrected.
