We have <br />reviewed your responses, and have provided comments below. Unless otherwise noted, items are <br />listed in the order identified in our August 12, 2002 adequacy letter. As the current decision date <br />for this TR is December 20, 2002, please provide a request for an extension of the decision date. <br />17(a). The response is inadequate. It is our understanding that the information requested for Map <br />2.05.3-5 regarding the dates of installation of the coal bed methane wells and pipelines has <br />not yet been obtained from Evergreen Resources. Please provide a revised (and certified) <br />Map 2.05.3-5 that includes this information once the information is obtained. <br />Map 2.05.3-5 has been revised to exclude from the previous version of the map those as- <br />yet unapproved mining areas, fills, roads, and ponds that are being proposed under a <br />different permitting action. With the exception of the lack of information discussed in the <br />paragraph above, Map 2.05.3-5 is acceptable. <br />17(b). The response and the proposed revisions to the permit are acceptable. <br />Kent Gorham with the Division has also reviewed Greystone's revised pages 2.05-39a <br />through 2.05-39i, and discussed his remaining concerns with Greystone by telephone on <br />December 19, 2002. Please provide your responses as discussed with Kent today. Please contact <br />me if I may be of further assistance. <br />Since 'T/.,"'~ ~/ <br />U' ~ 0 <br />Darnel I.
