~ ~ ._~ ~ _ 3 _ ~`y,v~pl~~1~~,~ r~ c) Pages III-31 thru 62 contain adequacy responses. The substance of these responses should be incorporated into the narrative of this section. Diagrams and calculations may be placed in an appendix and referenced in the text. 4. Chapter IV - Reclamation Plan / a) The discussion of Pits 7 and 8 should be removed from pages IV/-5 and III-S: Pages IV-5 and IY-18 should be amended to show that all ponds except Pond 5/6 will be reclaimed. b) There appears to be some discrepancies in the estimates of available top soil volumes and replacement depths. Table 5 in Section III shows 512,000 C.Y:(based on 159 disturbed acres) for Pit 4, while Table 3 in Section IV shows 300,700 C:Y. (based on 105 disturbed acres). In addition, the narrative on page IV-8 indicates a minimum replacement depth of 12 inches, whereas the tables indicate *.hat 20-24 inches are available. The operator should explain these discrepancies and revise the permit as necessary. c) The operator must revise the narrative on page IV-10 to indicate - that the seeding rates in Tables 4, 5, and 6 are for drill seeding. This might be accomplished most easily by deleting the sentence referring to seed rates entirely, and simply relying an the tables. d) Section 2.05.4(2)(8) should be amended to show that all drill holes will be seeded in compliance with Rules 4.07.3. 5: Chapter Y - Mitigation Plans ~~ ,Ir'e'(/ The last sentence on page W-7 should be deleted so that the monitoring plan is simply referenced to the hydrology report. The hydrology report would then be updated to reflect the current monitoring plan. b) Page V-1A should be modified to refer to the AVF reconnaissance ~f map. This map (which the Division has) should then be inserted into ~'~ ~ L(~ t section.

However, the following maps have elicited comments from the Division's review. a) The reclamation map shows Pits 7 and 8, and indicates retention of all sediment ponds. These features should be deleted from the map. In addition, it was noted that the designed reclaimed topography for Pits 5 and 6 differs from the as-built post mining topography. This is discussed in more detail in the Bonding section of this report. i z _. Z~ ~~ (~~
