-2- 8 d. The coal removal volume for Pit 3 as referenced on pane 4.14-8 differs from the tonnage recorded in Exhibit 25. Please rectify this discrepancy. There appear to be some inconsistencies in the timing of the operations and reclamation plan. a. When is topsail being removed for Pond H? No year is designated on Map 33. b. It appears that overburden is being placed in overburden pile No. 2 in Year 7 (Map 37) but topsoil is being removed from the site in Year 8. c. There are numerous inconsistencies between Map 40 and Table 62. Please modify them to relate to one another, ensuring that the following issues are addressed at a minimum. i. Map 40 indicates that topsoil will be replaced in Pit 1 in years 3 and 4, while Table 62 indicates that no topsoil is being replaced anywhere in years 3 and 4. ii. Map 40 indicates that topsoil replacement will occur in years 1 and 2 in both Pits 1 and 2 yet Table 62 only documents 720 Pit reclamation. iii. Map 40 indicates topsoil reolacement in Pits 1 and 2 in year 5 but Table 62 indicates that it won't happen until year 6. Year 6 is shown on Pit 2 but not on Pit 1 of Map 40. iv. Map 40 indicates that topsoil replacement on overburden pile No. 1 will occur in years 6, 7 and 8: Table 62 indicates it will occur in years 7 and 8. v. Map 40 indicates that topsoil replacement on Overburden Pile No. 2 will occur in years 8, 9 and 10; Table 62 indicates it will occur in years 9 and 10. vi, To what does OB-E refer in Table 62? vii. There is no reference to B-D on Table 62, although it shows up at 43250N and 57000E on Map 40. 9. Please discuss the size of the disturbance areas east of Pit 2 and the footprint of the northernmost temporary overburden stockpile. Identify how this complies with Rule 4.05.5(2)(a) which discusses disturbance of the smallest practicable area.
