For example, the renewal <br />"permitted" acreage is given as 1405.4, whereas the existing document <br />indicates permit acreage of 1357. The affected acreage values given in <br />the renewal application and existing document are 358.8 acres and 382.0 <br />acres, respectively, The reclaimed acreage (368) is larger than the <br />affected acreage (358.8), as provided on the application form. The <br />disturbed acreage must include all of the reclaimed land which is not <br />yet released (Rule 1.04.(36), thus it cannot be 1.9 acres. The bond <br />release acreage values of 358 (Phase I) and 100.2 (Phase III) also seem <br />to be inconsistent with the other values. <br />Please check all maps and survey information, and then provide accurate <br />acreage information. <br />RESPONSE: <br />After reviewing pertinent maps and survey information, CYCC has determined <br />the following acreages are representative of the Mine 3 permit area. <br />Permitted Acreage: The existing document, (submitted in 1984) gives this <br />value as being 1357 acres. However, this would appear to be a typographical <br />error since the legal description as submitted encompasses some 1397 acres. <br />Additionally, about 11 acres were omitted from the legal description. When <br />the 40 acre and 11 acre discrepancies are added to the 1357, a total permit <br />acreage of some 1408 acres is obtained. The difference between 1408 acres <br />and the 1405 acre value submitted with the permit renewal application can be <br />attributed to rounding error. The revised complete legal description (page <br />2.03-38a') has been enclosed. <br />Affected Acrea e: The existing document gives this value as being 38.0 <br />acres from CMLRD Table #7), while the permit renewal application stated this- <br />
