EXHIBIT E-MINE PLAN MAP (Rule 6.3.5 (e)): As first referenced under Exhibit B above, it is the Division's experience that fences, which qualify as permanent man-made structures, are often overlooked in preparing an application and }~ou have been asked to confirm }'our statement in the Exhibit B narrative [hat there are no fences either along the County Road 211 right-of-wa}~ or the Econ Liquor, Inc. and So. Gas, Inc. property QN' line. If one or both fences were found to be present, you were requested to revise Exhibit B. If }'ou do find that there is a fence along the Econ Liquor, Inc.-So. Gas, Inc. propert}' line, please not onl}' revise Exhibit B to [hat effect but also provide revised Exhibit E-M maps on which this fence is illustrated and the owner identified. EXHIBIT E-RECLAMATION PLAN MAP (Rules 6.3.E (3) (d) and (e)): The map indicates that only 4 to 6 inches of combined topsoil and overburden will be spread on the reclaimed surfaces of the mine. As indicated previously in [his review (See discussion under Exhibit D-Reclamation Plan), this is not consistent with what is ~ stated in the SCD reclamation plan or with the volumes of topsoil and overburden }'ou indicate }'ou plan to spread under your Exhibit Dnarrative. - Once you have decided just how much topsoil and overburden will be spread on the excavated areas, please provide an appropriate)}' revised Exhibit E-Reclamation Plan Map which includes the correct information. EXHIBIT F-OTHER PERMITS (Rule 6.3.6): Your listing of the permits you have considered as possibl}' necessan' for your proposed operation does not include a 404 permit from the Corps of Engineers (Possible need discussed under Exhibit C-Mining Plan above.) or the possible need for a Storm Water Permit from the Colorado (J~ Water Quality Conttol Division. Your proposed operation does include the placement of fill material in the local draina;e in conjunction with construction of a stream crossing as well as directing all runoff from [he disturbed areas of the pit into a catchment basin adjacent to the local stream course. Please provide evidence of contact with the Corps of Engineers in regard to the possible need fora 404 pemtit and the Colorado Water Quality Control Division in regard to a possible need for a Storm N'ater Permit andior a detailed sediment pond desien. EXHIBIT G-RIGHT OF ENTRY (Rule 6.3.7): You have satisfied the requirements of this rule with the material you have provided. You should be aware, however, that the statement you have provided does not include mention of a right to enter the property for reclamation purposes. The Performance Warranq' which you are also required to submit in order to secure a permit includes, however, your promise that you have lawful authority to enter the affected lands to conduct reclamation operations. You relationship with the current land owner may be such that you consider a signed right to reclaim the property at the conclusion of }'our mining operation is ~- unnecessan and understood. It is the Division's experience that a changes in the relationships ofaandowner and operator do occur, e.g. possibly brought about b}' a change in ownership, arid this has, at times in the past, created a problem for an operator in attempting to reclaim according to a plan with which the owner. at that time, does not agree. You are not required to alter [he document you have submitted in order [o satisf}' ttte requirements of this Rule but you might consider it practical to include in your right of entry a statement covering a right to enter the properrv for reclamation purposes. EXHIBIT L PERMANENT MAN-MADE STRUCTURES (Rule 6.3.12)): You have indicated in your response [o the requirements of Exhibit B that there are no man made structures within 200 feet of the land to be affected by the mining operation. The Division, in its discussion of your response, has asked you to confirm that there are no fences within this distance of your proposed perntiUaffected land boundaries. If, upon checking, you find [hat there is a fence along the Econ Liquors, Inc. and So. Gas, Inc. property line, the Division will accept that by keeping your mining operation within the proposed permit area boundaries, you pose no threat to a fence at that distance. If. however, you find that there is a fence alon_ the right-of--way for County Road 21 I with which your neo' access haul road connects and your road must pass Ihru that fence, then the Division considers that your operation has the potential to possibly dama,e that structure. In such case, you must meet the requirements of this Exhibit. In the e+'ent there is a fence along the right-of-w'ay for County Road 21 I and your access/haul road must pass thru that fence in order [o connect with the counh' road, please provide a notarized agreement between you and [he owner of the fence in which you agree to compensate the owner for any dama_e broush[ about by your mining operations. Otheneise, provide an acceptable engineering evaluation that the fence will not be damaged by your mining activities
