This portion of the plan adequately addresses the requirements of <br />Federal Coal Exploration Lease C-28056 dated 1 November 1979. <br />The remaining issue deals with permit stipulation 23, which states: <br />THE OPERATOR IS REQUII2ED TO SUBMIT A PLAN FOR THE <br />ABANDONMENT OF ALL WELLS LOCATED ON BLM PROPERTY NO <br />LATER THAN JANUARY 25, 2002. THIS PLAN NEEDS TO ADDRESS THE <br />PROPER ABANDONMENT AND SEALING OF ALL WELLS AND A <br />TIMETABLE SO THAT ALL WELLS ARE ABANDONED AND RECLAIMED <br />BY AUGUST 12, 2002. <br />KCC will need to submit a deadline for the completion of the reclamation project to remain <br />in compliance with the terms of the pemut. The extension date needs to be agreed upon by <br />the Division and BLM and should be no later than 1 October 2002. <br />Please let me know if you have any questions. <br />Sincerely, _.- - <br />James R.
