<br />s <br />Page 2 <br />July 31, 2001 <br />Mc Cazl Gerity <br />Our reclamation assumptions included re-grading the existing 120 foot long highwall at an <br />approximate 3:1 slope, which is steeper than shown on the reclamation map, ripping the graded fill, <br />fertilizing and broadcast seeding with your proposed seed mixture. We did not estimate the cost of <br />importing the bacld-ill necessary to create this grade. <br />Exhibit E Map (Rule ti.3.5(31(all: The map included in Exhibit E, Map 4 Reclamation Plan does not <br />show contour intervals or elevations of contour lines and it is not to scale. It also appears that <br />considerable fill must be imported to achieve the contours shown. Please be advised that the grades <br />and fills shown in your permit become the requirements of your perrnit. <br />Please provide a map to scale with contour line elevations or contour intervals so that we may verify <br />the 3:1 slope. Please also provide an estimate of the amount of fill to be imported and the source of <br />that fill. <br />Please note that if the fill is to be derived from the property owned by Mr. Burtis, that area must be <br />pemut[ed as a mining operation. If fill is imported from a permitted source not owned by Mr. Burns, <br />the cost of importing fill would be additional to the reclamation cost. <br />Note: The decision date for this application is August 22, 2001. Please respond fully [o the adequacy <br />issues identified above sufficiently before that date in order that our review and approval of the <br />application can be completed prior to that time.
