Walther <br />Executive Director <br />Michael B. Long <br />Division Director <br />We received your letter of August 21, 1999, regarding planned resumption of coal production at McClane <br />Canyon Mine in December, 1999. Tn your letter, reference was made to certain changes with screening and <br />crushing facilities which would be addressed within a revision to be submitted in the near future. As we <br />discussed on site during the recent inspectioq information regarding the "construction material stockpile" <br />near the riprap stockpile should be included in the n-vision submittal. Other relevant issues disci>ssed <br />during the inspection include the need for necessary air quality permits to be in place prior to resumption of <br />activity, and the need for any proprosed increase in coal production beyond currently permitted levels to be <br />addressed by technical revision. <br />Finally, in We confusion surrounding permit transfer to Lodestar, certain issues raised in the February, 1999 <br />Mid-term review letter were never addressed. i Have enclosed Section V "Decision to Require Revisions", <br />from that letter. OuLStanding Items (2, 3, 4, and 5) should be addressed within a technical revision to be <br />submitted prior to resumption of operations. <br />Please contact me if you have any questions. <br />Sincere ~~~ <br />Dan .Mathews <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />ce: Mark Wayment, Lodestar <br />Denier File <br />
