XVIII. Coal Processing Waste and Non-Coal Processing Waste - Rules 2.05.3(8) <br />There will be no coal processing waste produced under this renewal, therefore <br />Stipulation No. 12 which requires sampling and analysis of coal waste is no <br />longer needed. The application is in compliance with the requirements of this <br />sec ti on. <br />XIX. Mine Facilities, Coal Handling Structures, Support Facilities - Rules <br />an <br />Under the permit renewal there will be no mine or support facilities or <br />structures present on the site. The Division finds the application to be in <br />compliance with the requirements of this section. <br />XX. Roads - Rules 2.05.3(3) and 4.03 <br />No roads will be built under this renewal, therefore Stipulation No. 13 is no <br />longer required. The remainder of the 1983 Findings Document remains in <br />effect. The Division finds the application to be in compliance with the <br />requirements of this section. <br />XXI. Bonding - Rule 2.05.4(2)(b) <br />The current bond amount posted for this mine is E348,401.18. <br />The permit renewal application, received on November 15, 1988 and Kaiser <br />Steel's responses to the Division's adequacy comments for TR-9 and Permit <br />Renewal No. 1 received on January 20, 1989, contained cost estimates for the <br />reclamation work described in TR-9. Because the approved mining never took <br />place, except for the exploration pit, much less disturbance has occurred than <br />was originally bonded for. Therefore, under this renewal, the required bond <br />has been reduced. <br />The latest estimates by the Division indicate that the reclamation work to be <br />done under the permit renewal would cost approximately 5250,000.00. Therefore <br />the Division, as part of the renewal process, will accept a bond reduction to <br />a total of 5250,000.00. <br />Stipulation No. 16, requiring the increase of the reclamation bond to <br />5345,260.00, has been complied with. The Division currently holds bonds for <br />this mine in excess of that amount. Therefore Stipulation No. 16 is no longer <br />necessary. <br />The operation is in compliance with the requirements of this section. <br />XXI I. Sealing of Drilled Holes and Underground Openings - Rules 2.05.4(2)( <br />No changes will be made to this section. Stipulation No. 17 will remain in <br />effect. <br />-13- <br />
