The application was received on <br />January 24, 1996 and deemed complete for purposes of filing on January 30, 1996. <br />The minor revision application addressed questions 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the midterm review <br />conducted May 8, 1995. Colowyo responded to the remaining questions (5-20) in the form <br />of a letter to the Division. Colowyo and the Division have agreed to discuss these remaining <br />questions in a meeting to be held on Monday, February 5, 1996. Any additional information <br />required, as a result of this meeting, shall be submitted as a separate revision to the permit. <br />The Division has one concern regarding the revised pages; <br />Question 1 in the midterm review requested pre-mining and post-mining maps for the <br />northern area of the mine. Colowyo responded stating that Map No. 1 shows pre-mining <br />contours, and Map No. 38 shows the post-mining contours of the northern area of the <br />operation. It appears that Map 38 depicts the existing configuration of the northern area <br />(mainly the warehouse area and the gossard loadout). This map does not show the post- <br />mining contours of the area, or the structures to be removed (buildings and ponds). <br />Colowyo revised page 2.05-37 to state that the Bonding Calculation Map (Map 38) shows <br />post-mining contours. As mentioned above, this map does not reflect the post-mining <br />configuration of the northern portion of [he mine. This is one issue that the Division and <br />Colowyo need to discuss during the February 5, 1996 meeting. In the interest of approving <br />
