In response to the letter from Brian E. Munson, Reclamation Specialist, <br />t4ined Land Reclamation, July 13, 1981 <br />Review Question <br />2.04.6 <br />(1)(2) With respect to geology, there is a minor issue. The text mentions <br />the existence of a fault zone along Hayden Gulch Road. What is the <br />location of this fault zone with respect to the mine? <br />Response <br />8. Quotation Section 2.04.6 (1) (a) Permit Application Geology <br />Description Structure - "In addition to the larger fault struc- <br />tures shown on Exhibit BB, Exhibit Volume II, a fault zone con- <br />sisting of a number of closely spaced normal faults were found <br />along the Hayden Gulch Road (Phillips, al. 1976). The zone appa- <br />rently trends westward, but the combined displacement is not <br />known". <br />July 21, 1981, Don Schneider held a phone conversation with Mr. <br />Joe Phillips, author of "Hayden Gulch Fee Coal Area Preliminary <br />Report Geology Reserves, Mining Feasibilty". Denver: W. R. <br />Grace & Co. (unpublished report). Mr. Phillips offered a verbal <br />description of the fault location, which has been illustrated on <br />Exhibit Z Geologic map. The fault or faults in question occur <br />outside the permit boundary just off the northeast corner. The <br />subject faulting may be seen in the tJest bank of the road cut <br />along County Road 53 just South of the "Red Dog" pit. <br />Reference Exhibit BB, Exhibit Volume II. <br />C~ <br />
