Health and Safety: 27. Signs will be posted on the proposed project facilities that identify potential hazards associated with their operation including noise, and explosive use. Material Safety Data Sheets for any chemicals will be maintained on site during the construction phase. 28. Fire restrictions/guidelines during periods of high wildfire danger will be followed as required by the Authorized Officer. 29. A monitoring and sampling plan will be submitted and approved to determine baseline radiation levels in the Plan area and in any future modification area prior to, during mining and at reclamation. The monitoring plan will include a description of monitoring devices, sampling parameters and frequency, reporting procedures and methods. The monitoring plan will be coordinated with and approved by the BLM Authorized Officer prior to surface disturbance. 30. If monitoring results indicate there are hazard levels of radioactivity on the mine site due to mining activity, actions must be taken to prevent damage to public health, welfare and the environment. 31. If the mine is to be idle for more than one year, the mine entrance must be closed using a method sufficient to preclude entry by the public. Temporary closure methods must be approved by BLM and CDRMS. 32. During final reclamation, the opening must be permanently closed using methods approved by BLM and CDRMS. Noise: 33. If noise exceeds Colorado noise emission limits (Colorado Regulation 25-12 Article 12, "Noise Abatement") with any mining operations, adequate muffling techniques, such as hospital-type mufflers, will be applied to reduce noise levels to an acceptable level. Paleontology: 34. If paleontological materials (fossils) are uncovered during project activities, the operator will immediately stop activities that might further disturb such materials, and contact the authorized officer (AO). The operator and the authorized officer will consult and determine the best option for avoiding or mitigating paleontological site damage. Financial Guarantee BLM will review and provide bonding recommendations and concurrence to the Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety (CDRMS) for the J Birds Mine Permit M-2005-050. Operations may begin when BLM is provided documentation that the bond is filed with CDRMS and the permit is authorized by CDRMS. You must not begin activities under the approved Plan of Operations until you receive notification that your financial guarantee has been accepted and the requirements of the Conditions of Approval have been met. Approval of a Plan of Operations by BLM does not constitute a determination regarding the validity or ownership of any unpatented mining claim involved in the mining operation. Rimrock Exploration & Development Inc. is responsible for obtaining any use rights or local, state or federal permits, licenses or reviews that may be required for the operation. Occupancy The J Birds Mine Plan of Operations involves placement of temporary structures. By this decision, the BLM notifies you that your use and occupancy are reasonably incident and they conform to all of the applicable requirements of 43 CFR 3715. Any failure to meet the requirements of the regulations may result in a notica,of noncompliance or an order for you to suspend or cease your occupancy under
