Walther <br />EKeculrve Director <br />n.vchael8 Lung <br />DueClor <br />This is to acknowledge the Division's receipt of your letter of January 18, 1999 requesting an exunsion of <br />the review period for the reclamation cost estimau provided to you by Jim Dillie on November 17, 1998. <br />Based on our meeting on January 14, 1999, the Division is agreeable to extending that review period to <br />May 31, 1999. Such an exunsion will allow the siu to be inspected in May and verification made of <br />reclamation completed in order that revision of the reclamation cost estimate might be considered. M <br />inspection in May will also allow a demonstration to be made of there being enough topsoil available at the <br />site for the Division to consider a revision of the reclamation plan eliminating the current permit <br />requirement that topsoil be imported for reclamation purposes. If approved, such a revision would also bear <br />on the reclamation cost estimate. <br />Therefore, prior to the Division's inspection in May, Butala Construction should provide a map which 1) <br />illustraus the reclamation that has been completed at the site and 2) provides data both on the thickness and <br />exunt of topsoil on siu such that an estimate can be made of the volume of topsoil preunt <br />If you have any questions on the above, please contact me or Jim Dillie. <br />Sincerely, <br />James C. Suvens <br />Sr. Specialist <br />99N06 <br />
