I am numbering the responses in the same order as presented in your letter. <br />I) EXHIBIT D-MINING PLAN <br />a) There are no plans at present to install and operate a field conveyor to <br />convey pit-run to the plant from the amendment area. We will continue to <br />use haul trucks. If we plan to install and operate a field conveyor on the <br />Speer site, I will notify the Division and a re-calculation of the bond can <br />be performed. <br />b) No response required. We will be in compliance with both UD&FCD and <br />Adams County on the pit-side and riverside improvements. <br />II) EXHIBIT E-RECLAMATION PLAN <br />a) No response required. The seed mix is the same. <br />III) EXHIBIT G-WATER INFORMATION <br />a) The gravel well permit was submitted and approved by the state engineer <br />in 2001 along with the substitute supply plan. The plan has been revised <br />to include the amendment area and is ready to be submitted once approval <br />from the DMG is acquired for AM-2. <br />b) The discharge permit will be amended to show the additional area of <br />mining once approval from the DMG is acquired for AM-2. The <br />discharge points will not change, only the increased area of mining. An <br />amended map is all that will be required. <br />c) Please see attached highlighted page 2 of an adequacy review letter <br />written 9-21-02 by Kristina Kamnikar for AM-1 to this permit. ASCI <br />commits to the exact same procedures for mitigation to alluvial wells for <br />
