Please address the following concern prior to <br />the due date of September l6, 1999: <br />1) Exhibit C -Mining plan -The 15' setback from the permit line specified on p. 8 does not leave <br />enough maneuvering room for the average bulldozer, especially if this pit is to be mined at 3H:1 V, or <br />if 3H:1 V slopes are [o be established (as specified) after the initial excavation. Please increase the <br />setback to a more realistic working corridor. <br />2) On p. 10, Exhibit D, Reclamation Plan, it is stated that should there be a change to the seed mix, <br />DMG will be informed. Such changes to the reclamation plan require a Technical Revision to the <br />permit.
