Mr. Stout - 2 - October 3, 1988 the Division has at this time. New Elk (C-81-012) will be listed first followed by Golden Eagle (C-81-013) New Elk Mine (C-81-012) Rule 2.05.4 - Revegetation p. 2.05-47: The application merely cites the MLRD regulations, "as outlined in section 4.15.8 and 4.15.10", for vegetation success criteria. WFC must detail what their specific criteria will be. p. 2.05-49: The application proposes a tree/shrub standard of 450 stems/acre on the refuse area. The Division will usually not issue a variance to replace less than 1,000 stems of trees and/or shrubs per acre. If WFC desires a lower standard on this area, which is heavily utilized by wildlife, they should obtain a letter of concurrence from the Colorado Division of Wildlife. Rule 2.05.3 - Ponds, Impoundment and Diversions p. 2.05-17: On page 2.05.17, first paragraph, the estimated flow for sump discharge to pond 007 has been omitted. This needs to be reinserted. Also since the NPDES permit has been amended to allow discharge at pond 006, the Division requests that a commitment to a date be made that is acceptable to both the Division and WFC, for installment of the emergency spillway on pond 006. More comments on these ponds are included in the exhibit comments (~19) later in this letter. Rule 2.05.6(3) p. 2.05-59: Table 27 should be revised to list wells PAW-3 and PAW-4, rather than backfilled channel wells, in order that the references conform with Map 8 and the Annual Hydrologic Report. p.2.05-64: The references to a 1985 AHR in Exhibit 12 needs updating. That exhibit should be carrying the 1988 version. p. 205-82: The formula at the bottom of the page appears wrong. The resultant should be to add both Cb Vb and Ca Va and divide the sum by total Vb and Va. P. 2.05-83, 84: The narrative here needs to be straightened out. The ` last paragraph on p. 83 abruptly shifts the discussion e~c~ ~~~`{ 1.1- from alluvial water back to the stream impacts of the "" backfilled channel then portions the narrative on p. 80 are repeated and finally a return is made to alluvial impacts.
