A receipt of placement will need to be submitted with your responses ADEQUACY REVIEW 1. Item no. 1 1 on the permit application form indicates a post mining land use of rangeland. However, the reclamation plan cross-section indicates that a pond will be created. Please ensure that this post-mining land use designation is correct. 2. Please submit any available flow rate information that is available for Kannah Creek. 3. Pumping of groundwater and evaporative losses from exposing groundwater are considered to be consumptive uses for which a well permit may need to be obtained. Please be aware that this permit should be in place prior to exposing or pumping any groundwater. The operator will need to contact the Colorado Division of Water Resources prior to affecting any groundwater resource. 4. Please identify the source of water to be used for dust control or other operations at this site. 5. Please include, in the weed control plan, a proposed annual schedule for performing site monitoring for weeds. Also, include a timing schedule for weed control applications. It is recommended that the plan be drafted with input from, and approval of, the local weed control authority. RFCc~VF DIVISI q(~GO ~ MIfJ&RALS 4
