<br />62. Rule 2.04.6(3): Proposed Map 23 (certified 9/10/99) depicts a fault extending from the <br />NE'/a of Section 24, TSN. R86W, through the NW'/a of Section l 1, TSN, R86W. Proposed <br />Map 6, "Wadge Seam Structure" (certified 2/4/00), proposed Map 9, Geologic Cross Section <br />C to C' " (certified 12/7/99), and proposed Map 9A, "Geologic Cross Section "E" (certified <br />l 1/19/99) do not seem to have depicted this fault. Please address. <br />63. Rule 2.04.6(3): It is stated in the fourth paragraph of proposed permit page 2.04-16.2 (rev. <br />2/24/99) that "The 97-013 TMlI'C monitoring wells, which were installed on the northern <br />side of the property did locate a fault which was previously projected for this area...The <br />location of the well is shown on Map 13A." Please add to this permit text the locations of <br />these wells in'/a'/a Section, Township, and Range format. <br />Map 13A (cettified 12/16/99) does not depict the locations of any well(s) labeled "97-O13 <br />TM/TC". Please address. <br />64. Rule 2.04.6(3): It is stated in the fourth paragraph of proposed permit page 2.04-16.2 (rev. <br />2/24/99) that `"fhe fault had an estimated displacement of 200-2580 feet...". This seems too <br />large a range in displacement values. Please address. <br />65. Rule 2.04.6(3): The amounts of displacement on the faults in the Southwestern and Eastern <br />Mining districts are shown on Proposed Map 6, "Wadge Seam Structure", certified 2/4/00. <br />Please also provide on proposed Map 6 the amount of displacement observed on the fault <br />located near the far northern end of the Foidel Creek Mine permit boundary. Please also <br />indicate on Map 6 which sides of the fault are the up-thrown and down-thrown blocks. <br />66. Rule 2.04.6(3): Proposed Map 6, "Wadge Seam Structure" (certified 2/4/00), indicates that <br />Geologic Cross Section A-A' (Map 7, certified 12/7/99) is constructed through boreholes <br />"90001" and "02181028". These boreholes aze not depicted on Geologic Cross Section A- <br />A'. Please address. <br />67. Rule 2.04.6(3): Proposed Map 6, "Wadge Seam Structure" (cettified 2/4/00), indicates that <br />Geologic Cross Section D-D' (Figure lA, certified 12/13/99) is constructed through <br />boreholes "W l5", "97006", and "02181008". These boreholes are not depicted on Geologic <br />Cross Section D-D'. Please address. <br />68. Rule 2.04.6(3): Please extend Geologic Cross Section C-C" eastward through boreholes <br />"40101", "40124", "40082", "40080", and "40125". This will help the Division better <br />understand the dip angle, dip direction, and displacement of all Five of the faults in Section <br />l2, TSN, R86W that are depicted on Maps 6 and 23. <br />69. Rule 2.04.6(3): The Middle Creek Mine mains are depicted on proposed Map 6, "Wadge <br />Seam Structure" (cettified 2/4/00), in the S %z of Section l2, TSN, R86W. It is the <br />Division's understanding that this underground Wadge Seam mine encountered relatively <br />high groundwater inflows. Please discuss the rates of mine water inflows observed in the <br />Middle Creek Mine, the potential sources of this water, and the potential geologic pathways <br />(faults, aquifers, etc) for this water. <br />t <br />
