~• <br />Mr. Bruce Humphries <br />Mined Land Reclamation Division <br />January 26, 1993 <br />Page 2 <br />~~ <br />We will be increasing the amount of disturbed area in the <br />Table of Disturbance since the additional area was previously <br />mined and not reclaimed. Most of this previous disturbance <br />will be classified as major disturbance. <br />... Exhibit S - The 20 acre McGuire property is proposed to be <br />reclaimed as rangeland, the same use as the original permit <br />properties. All conditions and statements regarding <br />reclamation made in the original permit will be followed here <br />also. <br />... Exhibit F - The 20 acre parcel will be included in the <br />reclamation of Phases 5 and 7. This area will not hold water <br />and will be graded to match the other reclaimed areas. <br />... Exhibit G - The inclusion of the 20 acre McGuire property will <br />not have any impact on the surface or groundwater systems in <br />the area. The previous mining plan did not propose to expose <br />any groundwater or seriously alter the surface water drainage <br />in this area. This additional area will neither expose <br />groundwater nor alter the surface drainage more than was <br />originally proposed. <br />... Exhibit H - The 20 acre McGuire property inclusion will have <br />no detrimental impact to the wildlife in the area. <br />... Exhibit I - The soils in the 20 acre McGuire property are the <br />same as those in the adjacent permitted area. The soils will <br />pose no limitations to the mining or reclamation plans as <br />permitted. <br />... Exhibit J -The vegetation of the additional area is the same <br />as the surrounding permitted area. The percent of vegetated <br />cover varies between 308 and 408. <br />... Szhibit K - The climate of the included area is the same as <br />the surrounding permitted area. <br />... Exhibit L - An additional reclamation bonding cost has been <br />calculated for the new area due to the area being previously <br />disturbed. This amount will either increase the original bond <br />or be bonded separately. <br />... Szhibit N - There are no new permits or licenses needed for <br />this amendment. <br />
