i <br />,~ <br />Renewable resource lands <br /> <br />State "Based on the assessment of cumulative hydrologic impacts and probable <br />hydrologic consequences of the proposed operations, the mining and <br />reclamation operations will not result in a substantial loss or reduction of <br />long-range productivity of the water supply in the area including aquifers <br />and aquifer recharge areas." CNote: The State RA must find that the <br />operations are designed to prevent material damage to the hydrologic balance <br />outside the permit area; therefore, the statement is appropriate in all <br />cases when a permit is to be issued.) <br />(AND) <br />Identify food production (e.g., crops, cattle) and fiber production (e.g., <br />timber, cotton) and state "The mining and reclamation operations will not <br />result in a substantial loss or reduction of long-range productivity of the <br />lands producing the food and fiber products because the lands will be <br />reclaimed to the level of productivity that they were capable of supporting <br />before mining." (Note: If there is a change in postmining land use, <br />additional explanation may be needed.) <br />COR) <br />State "There are no food or fiber products being produced in the permit <br />area." <br />Natural hazard lands <br />Identify areas of unstable geology; state "The mining and reclamation <br />operations will not substantially endanger life and property because of the <br />effects of mining and reclamation operations on the areas of unstable <br />geology"; and state why. <br />COR) <br />State "There are no areas of unstable geology in the permit and adjacent <br />areas." <br />(AND) <br />Identify areas subject to frequent flooding; state "The mining and <br />reclamation operations will not substantially endanger life and property <br />because of the effects of mining and reclamation operations on the areas <br />subject to frequent flooding"; and state why. <br />(OR) <br />State "There are no areas subject to frequent flooding in the permit and <br />adjacent areas." <br />
