BANTA, Director <br />July 7, 1988 <br />Mr. Terre71 K. Johnson - <br />Colorado Yampa Coal Company <br />29587 Routt County Road #27 <br />Oak Creek, Colorado 80467 <br />RE: Minor Revision 28- Area 61 Topsoil Handling- Eckman Park- C-81-071 <br />Dear Mr: Johnson: <br />We have received the above-referenced minor revision application (date <br />received: July 5, 1988) and the application was considered complete as of July <br />6, 1988. A copy is available in our office for public review. Our adequacy <br />concerns are provided below. Please respond to this letter so that we can <br />issue our approval on or before July 16, 1988. <br />1.) According to the documents in our files, Revised Page, Permit <br />Renewal 780-107-1 does not accurately reflect the treatments being <br />used for the Aspen study, probably due to an inadvertent typing <br />error. Please correct the last 6 lines to include wording <br />regarding the "one lift vs. two lifts" topsoil live handling <br />treatment. <br />2:) The last paragraph on Revised Page, Permit Renewal 780-107-2 does <br />not include all of the previously approved wording. Please correct <br />the text to indicate that 6-10 inch redistribution will occur in <br />the east section of Area 9/10 and that approximately 15 inches of <br />topsoil will be redistributed in the west section of Area 9/10. <br />3:) We can approve the proposed variation in the topsoil plan if the <br />following issue is clarified. The previously approved plan <br />indicates that a total of 73,600 cubic yards of topsoil would be <br />live handled from the southwest portion of Area 61. With the new <br />proposal, about 48,300 cubic yards of topsoil will be windrowed and <br />then redistributed'at approximately the same area. This indicates <br />that some amount of the soil previously intended for live handling <br />would not be available for use during reclamation of the more <br />northerly sections of Area 60. <br />215 Centennial Building, 1313 Sherman Street Denver, Colorado 80203-2273 Tel.
