Revised Maps: <br />The outstanding Corrective Action requiring the submittal of revised maps has not yet <br />been addressed. <br />Response: <br />The required revised map is submitted herewith. <br />October 7, 2002 Letter from Division: <br />Description of Site Features: <br />A complete description of all site features is required so that determinations can be <br />made about which historical features can be eliminated from the list of reclaimable <br />disturbances. Descriptions of pre-Law features must be adequate to determine if hazards <br />exist. <br />Response: <br />The enclosed "Report on Site Conditions" describes the features included in the <br />Permit. The nearby pre-Law vent holes are described in the enclosed report and in the Sunday <br />Mine information package submitted by the Operator on February 6, 2003. <br />Vent Features Above St. Jude Mine: <br />There are a couple vent hole features and related electric lines up the slope from the <br />St. Jude Portal. Confirm if these features are part of the St. Jude Permit. <br />Response: <br />The vent hole and compressor station on the ridge above the St. Jude Mine are not <br />included under the St. Jude Permit, In fact, this Operator can find no documentation, nor <br />apparently can the Division, that these features have been included under any existing Permit <br />held by the Operator. The Operator has proposed alternatives on how to incorporate these <br />features into existing permits held by the Operator in the area (see Sunday Mine information <br />package submitted by the Operator on February 6, 2003). This matter is currently under <br />review and discussion between the Operator and the Division. <br />Waste Rock Dump Designations: <br />The brown hachured areas on the draft map are assumed to be waste rock dumps. <br />Response: <br />The new map submitted herewith has a clearly labeled Legend identifying map <br />features. <br />Reclamation Maps: <br />The Reclamation Map to be submitted by the Operator must depict those features <br />which will remain on site; features which are to be removed should not be shown on the <br />Rec]amation Map. <br />Response: <br />No comment. <br />Affected Area Outline: <br />The disturbed area shown on the draft map exceeds the polygon of the affected area. <br />The affected area was never marked in the field, and boundary exceedances were not <br />previously known. It is not known if these areas were affected under a previous operator. <br />The affected area boundary should be reconfigured to include all disturbances outside of the <br />4 <br />
