The operator would like to relocate the processing site closer to the existing mining <br />operation, in an area which is already disturbed. Please refer to the attached mining plan for the <br />proposed location of the processing area, settling ponds and stockpiles. The reclamation plan will <br />change slightly. Firestien Pond 2 will be reduced to approximately 7.6 acres, the upland area will be <br />increased to 21.2 acres and the wetland area will be about 10.2 acres. Please note that Hall-Irwin <br />Corporation is exploring the potential of banking wetlands created above and beyond any wetland <br />mitigation that may be required on this site. <br />The proposed revision will not change the reclamation costs. The original permit calculated <br />reclamation costs for the point in time when [he mining disturbance would be at its maximum -during <br />the mining of the southern end of Phase 2. Relocating the processing equipment will not increase the <br />azea of disturbance. <br />Please call me if you have any questions. Thank you for your assistance. <br />Sincerely, <br />ROC ~~M~~O^^UnnNTAIN CONSULTANTS, INC. <br />~f4~ <br />Danna Ortiz <br />Natural Resources Planner <br />Attachment <br />cc: Jeff Gregg, Hall-Irwin Corporation <br />H:\0636_OSSVv1LRB\TechniwlRevision l .wpd <br />CIVIL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING PLANNING <br />
