a) There is an azea of barren, eroded spoils within BRB-1, which apparently was affected by acid forming spoil material. It is our understanding that the barren azea will be excluded from the bond release block when the initial bond release application is submitted, and that a plan for remedial reclamation will be pursued. Please confirm that our understanding is correct. b) Numerous Tree Plot azeas aze delineated on the Exhibit. Our assumption is that these areas aze locations where planned shrub or tree planting was conducted, and that these azeas do not necessarily conrespond to the "shrub concentration azeas" or synonymous "high density shrub patches", referenced in subsequent sections of the appendix. Please confirm or clarify as appropriate. c) Directly south of Pazce199-1 f, in BRB-4, there is a reclaimed parcel that includes a lazge Tree Plot area. The parcel does not appeaz to have a date/number designation. Also, there is a parcel in BRB-4, at the extreme southern end of the reclamation, that is designated 86-4e. If the pazcel were reclaimed in 1986, it would logically be included in BRB-3. Please address and correct these apparent discrepancies as appropriate. 4. The Logical Land Management Units (LLMU's) as described in the appendix and delineated on Exhibit 13-13.2 comprise individually fenced pastures. These units do not appeaz to correspond precisely with the Logical Land Management Units terminology as described in the 1995 DMG Guidelines document. Under "Bond Release Block Constraints", on page 14 of the Guidelines, a bond release block is described as a grouping of reclamation parcels that comprise or aze contained within a single logical land management unit. This does not appear to be the case with respect to the B1tB's and LLMU's as delineated on the map exhibits in the appendix. For example, the BRB-3 bond release block appeazs to extend into 5 sepazate LLMU's, as defined in the appendix (Cow Camp Pasture, Pecoco Pasture, Wadge Pasture, Powder House Pasture, and Thompson 440 Pasture). It may be the case that multiple pastures could be appropriately grouped into a single LLMU, based on the factors described in Part 2 (pages 14 and 15) of the Guidelines. If so, the necessary amendment maybe limited to revision of the narrative under "Logical Land Management Units", on page 2 of the appendix, to describe and justify the inclusion of multiple designated pastures within a single LLMU. If this is not the case, it may be necessary to firrttrer divide the proposed bond release blocks, to create additional bond release blocks such that each BRB is contained within a single LLMU. Please review the referenced Guideline sections and amend the appendix as necessary to demonstrate that the Bond Release Block/Logical Land Management Unit framework of the appendix is in accordance with the Guideline.
