Dear Mr. Morgan:
The Division has completed its adequacy review of the Corrective Action Plans
submitted oer the Board Order of August 23, 1989. We have some outstanding
items of concern for certain areas, but feel that work should commence on
certain other areas. We believe that reclamation of the Area Five slide, the
Area Six slide, and the Area Seven slide can be started now with three
conditions:
That areas outside of the limits of current disturbances of these areas
will not be disturbed;
2. That replacement evergreen trees will be re-established to at least the
same density as the surrounding undamaged slopes: and
3. That the Division will evaluate tree establishment success no sooner
than durino the summer of the fifth arowinD season.
The Division is granting approval to proceed with partial reclamation ahead
of the November 15, 1989 Corrective Action Plan deadline for two reasons:
1. Commencement of reclamation at this time of year is critical to the
rapid, successful establishment of a soil-loss-minimizing herbaceous
cover.
2. The Corrective Action Plans proposed for these three sites are the on~y
proposals that currently adequately comply with the August 23, 1989
Board Order and applicable sections of the f4ined Land Reclamation Act.
