On page 2.05 - 75i of the PHC, BRL indicates that flooded mine workings could impact <br />the water quality in the area and that when the mine is sealed it will slowly fill with water. This <br />discussion should be updated to include ground water impacts with respect to the proposed B- <br />Seam Mine Plan. The Division is concerned about the cumulative effects of flooding in the D- <br />Seam and B-Seam and what affects this may have on the overlying Upper and Lower Perched <br />Water Zones in the Mesa Verde Formation. Please update the PHC to include a discussion on <br />the potential for the B-Seam mine workings flooding and cumulative impacts to ground water <br />quality and quantity associated with the proposed B-Seam Mine Plan. <br />c: Sandy Brown <br />m:\coal\mpb\bowpr08 <br />
