<br />The DOW additionally recommended including a forb species in the seed mix for wildlife value, which I support. <br />Please state whether you will commit to including a species for wildlife value, through obtaining a specific <br />recommendation from DOW, at such time that you are ready to begin revegetating slope areas. (This <br />recommendation could be something such as red clover, at a broadcast rate of 1.0 Ib PLS/ac., for example.) <br />Exhibit G -Water Information <br />You refer to the 1981 permit materials, which includes the statement that you will use groundwater th the pit for <br />dust suppression. 1 assume this is limited to water from the well in the pit. Please be reminded that you should <br />provide evidence of the right to use such water prior to such use. Also, if you expect to continue to expose <br />groundwater, or enlarge the amount of groundwater surface exposed in the pit, you will have to provide evidence of <br />an approved gravel pit well permit. You state that this has been applied for. Before the pit is mined to its full depth <br />in the expanded area, such evidence will have to be provided. (This covers a question under Exhibit M also.) <br />Exhibit R -Proof of Filing with the County Clerk <br />Regarding all additional filings for follow-up materials, which are required to be filed and receipts provided for <br />each (as you have continually provided me), I cannot find the one which documents the addition of the full exhibit <br />content for Exhibits L, N, O, Q, R, and S. Mr. Ftaley included that th his objection letter, and it should be <br />specifically answered. Please provide a copy of the receipt. <br />Exhibit S -Permanent Man-made Structures <br />The engineering report provided in the initial packet (4/99) included a safe setback distance of unmined material, in <br />order to protect McNally's house and KE Road. The Mining and Reclamation Plan maps do not show such a <br />setback to be maintained. Please state whether you will leave the recommended 150-foot setback from either of <br />these structures, and how the horizontal distance will be determined (e.g., from the fenceline or from the structure, <br />etc.). <br />At this time your complete responses will satisfy the requirements of the application. Please provide such as soon <br />as you can. Today is the Division's date for making a recommendation on the application. My phone is 970/247- <br />5193 and my fax is 970/247-5104. <br />Sincerely, <br />Bob Oswald <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />a:~nichols adeg2/rco <br />
