Stipulation No. 32 within the proposed decision for TR-22. The proposed <br />language of the amended stipulation would read as follows: <br />Stipulation No. 32 <br />Prior to submittal of Phase I bond release application for the <br />lower road to be retained for the postmining land use, the operator <br />will submit a written request from the surface owner for retention <br />of the privately owned segment of haul road (between the BLM <br />boundary and State Highway 139). The request will indicate the <br />surface owner's concurrence with the plan for road retention <br />presented in permit section 3.3.1. Alternatively, a revised <br />reclamation plan for the lower road segment demonstrating <br />compliance with Rule 4.031(7)(a)(i) through (ix) will be submitted <br />to the Division. <br />Please let us know if the revised wording of the stipulation is acceptable to <br />you. <br />7. The ditch design and riprap sizing information summarized on Table 3.9-3 is <br />somewhat confusing, for anyone not already familiar with the permit. It would be <br />helpful to title the table "Peak Discharge for Reclaimed Ephemeral Channels <br />(Reclaimed Upper Road and Portal Bench)", and to include a reference to the map <br />figures that depict the subject channels. Also, for the "Ditch Design" and "Riprap <br />Sizing", sections of the table (presented separately from the "Drainage Basin <br />Summary", it would improve the clarity of the presentation if initial column <br />headings were changed from "Basin" or "Drainage Basin" to "Permanent <br />Channel". Please amend the table to provide the requested clarifications. <br />There are two ditch design summary tables for waste disposal area ditches; "As <br />Constructed Configuration" is presented on page M(vii)-4, and "Interim <br />Configuration" is presented on page M(vii)-29. It is unclear what the difference is <br />between the "As Constructed" and "Interim" configurations, and it would be <br />helpful to include explanation of the differences in the diversion channel text on <br />page 2-12. As requested for Table 3.9-3, it would also be helpful to include a <br />reference to the appropriate map figure on the table pages. Please amend the <br />tables and text as requested. <br />9. There appears to be no table comparable to "Interim" and "As Constructed" for <br />waste disposal area permanent ditches, and one would appear to be warranted. <br />Figure 2.2-7A "Post-Mining Contours" depicts labeled permanent diversion <br />ditches "C", "F", and "I". It also would appear that ditch segments "D" and "J" <br />will be retained as permanent, but for some reason these ditch segments are not <br />labeled on Figure 2.2-7A. Please provide an appropriate design summary <br />table for refuse area permanent ditches, ensure that all permanent ditches <br />are properly labeled on Figure 2.2-7A, include reference to the map figure on <br />
