As you state the proposed changes under this technical revision aze minor and I will respond <br />to your letter in the order in which it was presented. <br />As you state the intent of the revision is to reduce the amount of permitted disturbance at any <br />one time, thus reducing [he required bond amount. We agree with your Revised bond recalculation <br />of $16,093.00 <br />The following responses will be in order shown in your letter of August ] 0, 2001: <br />1) Our proposed revision does not seek to change the method of mining or the specifications <br />of the Reclamation plan, but simply [o reduce the affected sr~a. Nc disturbances related to the rail <br />spur will occur until needed and at that time the Division shall be notified. Your assumptions are <br />correct, and your bases of bond recalculation is also correct. Our plan is to mine the cells in <br />numerical order starting at Cell #l, then Cell #2 through Cell #4, at which time approximately the <br />year 2015, a new (TR) Technical Revision will be prepared to then proceed into Cell #5. <br />This TR-Ol will be used for the first four (4) cells. To clarify a statement in the TR Application we <br />do plan on disturbing more than ]0 Acres at any one time, it will be 13.]5 Acres which include the <br />access and haul roads, processing and stockpile areas, pond banks and pond surface. Please note that <br />the water supply plan for augmentation will be for 100 Acres of exposed groundwater. <br />2) The plan states that the topsoil will be stripped and salvaged for later use in reclamation. <br />The area stripped at any one time will not exceed 4.0 Acres. <br />"Your brand of People" <br />
