Our questions or comments are <br />as follows: <br />MR-25 (ROADS) <br />1. Based on our phone conversation, the Division understands the <br />proposed light use road bed width to be approximately 20 feet <br />in its final configuration. It is also our understanding that <br />these light use roads are to remain as permanent. Therefore, <br />we are proposing to approve this revision with the following <br />condition: <br />WITHIN 30 DAYS OF APPROVAL OF MR-25, KERB COAL COMPANY WILL <br />SUBMIT TEXT PAGE 816-175R CLARIFYING THAT MAP 29 DEPICTS <br />TIPPLE AREA HAUL ROADS ONLY, AND THAT HAUL ROAD A AND HAUL <br />ROAD B WERE MODIFIED VIA MR-25 TO PERMANENT, LIGHT-USE ROADS <br />AS DEPICTED ON MAP 28A, MINE AREA EXISTING STRUCTURES. MAP <br />28A WILL ALSO BE SUBMITTED, CLEARLY LABELED TO SHOW THAT BOTH <br />PREVIOUS HAUL ROAD SEGMENTS ARE NOW PERMANENT, LIGHT-USE <br />ROADS. THE REVISION NUMBER SHOULD BE INCLUDED AT THE BOTTOM <br />OF THE TEXT PAGE. TEXT SHOULD BE ADDED TO PAGE 780-62bb WHICH <br />DISCUSSES THE SEQUENCE OF RECLAMATION INCLUDING TOPSOILING OF <br />THE BUFFER ZONES AND DITCH AREAS ADJACENT TO THE 20 FOOT <br />LIGHT-USE ROAD CORRIDORS. TEXT SHOULD ALSO EXPLAIN THE SEEDING <br />OF THE CORRIDOR AREAS FOR THE PERIOD BETWEEN ROAD NARROWING <br />AND FINAL RECLAMATION. <br />
