Pond A3 needs to be reclaimed ae it traps very little water and its <br />capacity ae a sedimentation pond is no longer necessary. <br />The woody plant density standard of 3750 stems per acre is a higher number <br />than we would require. If the number were cut in half to 1850 or even 2000 <br />stems per acre, we would have no objections to those nuabers. <br />The fence that was built under project ¢3672 is a grazing pasture allotment <br />division fence, with same allottee leasing both pastuzes, so there should be <br />no problem with replacing the fence when the time comes to do so. <br />I7hen the CtdLRD feels the monitoring wells are no longer necessary and releases <br />Wyoming Fuel Co. to plug and abandon them, the BLM would consider releasing <br />the bond. <br />Should you have any questions or need any additional information. feel free to <br />contact Gene Dillashaw of this office. <br />'ncerely, <br />\ ,, ~~\\ ~ye.N~ <br />David arr <br />Acting Area Dianager <br />.ACC: Jerry Koblitz <br />
