• i extent of the extended reference area. 6. Pages 4-46 and 47 include a discussion of plans for replacing topsoil and testing substitute topsoil material where topsoil is not available for redistribution. These pages should be updated to explain where topsoil was redistributed and to what depth(s). Results of lab analyses of topsoil substitute material, and the location of those samples should also be included in the permit. For you (in no particular order): 1. I have a boilerplate mid-term review document from the soon-to-be-released handbook which you should use for your starting point. Let me know if you don't have access to one already. Also, I do need to review your document before it goes out. 2. The PAP in your office does not contain Appendix 3-V which is the vegetative baseline data. The PAP on the public shelves does. 3. The cover letter with our bond release denial advised Stover not to remove the ponds, even though removal of [he ponds was previously approved. We did that because we thought he might have to disturb some of the reclamation to reseed. If the veg is coming along, as it seems to be, we should start pushing Stover to remove the ponds. Would you ask him if he is planning any veg sampling this year? If he is not, we might take a close look ourselves, and see if the diversity is increasing, and if we think its time to get rid of the ponds. 4. The same letter (as #3) reminded Stover that the Mine 1 portal needed to be closed up. I know you're planning to address this. Let me know how you want to approach this. 5. The same letter advised Stover to submit an MR addressing reclamation of the road to the portal (I presume it was supposed to say to the Mine 1 fan). If he has not done this yet, we should require it with this mid-term. 6. I didn't look to check but, if there are any maps in the PAP still showing the loadout in the permit area, they should be revised or removed. m:~coal~Ipr~nMmtr
