<br /> <br />January 12, (Replaced pages in Permit Application) Page 3 of the Permit Application <br />submitted by the mine -This page lists the permitted, actual and proposed permitted acreage <br />as 80 acres. <br />April 2, (Findings Document File) Findings Document, Description of the Mining and <br />Reclamation Plan, page S -This portion of the Findings stated the following. <br />For this permit term the operator is mirung 80 acres. The operator has recently been <br />granted a lease modification to add an additional 120 acres to the existing Federal <br />lease. This lease modification will require a revision of the mine plan which has not <br />been developed nor proposed as a part of this permit renewal. The current mine plan <br />calls for reclamation to begin in approximately 1993, following the completion of <br />mining. <br />And page 15 of the Findings stated the following. <br />The Division has been concerned that current permit boundaries showed that the <br />applicant would be mining off the present Federal lease boundary into a Federal <br />lease block outside the permit boundary. The mine as reviewed by the Division for <br />the upcoming five-year term includes mining only in the lease block contained within <br />the present 80-acre permit area. The application submitted for renewal of the current <br />permit does not include approval for mining within a 120- acre lease modification <br />recently granted. Mining as currently proposed should terminate in the year 1993. <br />Reclamation will commence immediately upon completion of mining. <br />Undated <br />(Exhibit 1, Current Permit Application) Surface Ownership Map -Labels Sl/2 of NEI/4 of <br />sec. 16 (80 acres) as "Present Permit Boundary".
