Although the mine remains in temporary cessation, the <br />original temporary cessation notice of January 17, 1989 is <br />somewhat out of date, and needs to be amended (perhaps with <br />an addendum), to accurately reflect the current status. <br />Specifically, the acreage and status of the Loma Loadout <br />needs to be addressed, and the current condition of the <br />sealed portals updated. Also, the statement indicating that <br />"none of the disturbances or controls described in Permit C- <br />020-81 were constructed" is no longer accurate, since the <br />various existing hydrologic structures have been addressed <br />in various permit text sections, appendices, or <br />certifications. This statement should be clarified. <br />The opening paragraph of the notice indicates that, when <br />market conditions allow, the operator intends to bring the <br />mine to full production. The addendum should confirm if <br />this is LEI's intent, or amend the statement as appropriate, <br />in accordance with the response to Item 1, above. <br />2.05.3 Operation Plan - Permit Area <br /> <br />Rule 2.05.3(2)(b) requires a detailed narrative and <br />appropriate map(s), prepared according to the standards of <br />
