These reclamation <br />revisions will allow correction of the unpermitted disturbance <br />by the new operator after the permit is transferred. Mining <br />will then commence as permitted. <br />The following is a point by point response to the May 16, <br />1985 inspection report: <br />1. Request Technical Revision of the mining plan - please <br />delete the dry mining operation condition. A wash plant <br />will be incorporated into the operation. Water will not be <br />drown from Plum Creek - unless in compliance with Rule 116 <br />(1)(h)(a). <br />2. Topsoil stockpiled above the pit wall will be used on arses <br />available for revegetation, Any topsoil remaining more <br />than one growing season will be graded to slopes no greater <br />than 2H:1V and seeded to prevent erosion or deterioration. <br />Any current erosion will be corrected immediately.. <br />3. The operator will continue to maintain a minimum setback of <br />150 feet from Plum Creek at the southeast permit corner - <br />after the stockpiles are removed and the settling ponds <br />backfilled and reclaimed. Any disturbance at this location <br />will be reclaimed, in compliance with the original permit, <br />and remain unaffected throughout the life of the operation. <br />2305 S.
