RESPONSE TO ADEQUACY LETTER
for
TIGER TI11lBER EXPANSION SITE
PERMIT NO. 61-91-082
Responses are to Adequacy Items dated December 16, 1991 - copy attached.
EXHIBIT B
Item 2: Regarding ownership of structures on site relative to ownership oP
surface.
RESPONSE: The structures on site are all associated with the sawmill operation.
These structures are owned by Tiger Timber, Inc.. Ownership is
indicated on Exhibits E-1 and E-2.
EXHIBIT C
Item 2: Regarding the saving oP topsoil 2 inches or greater in thickness.
RESPONSE: Where topsoil exists to a depth of 2 inches or greater the soil will
be salvaged and stockpiled for subsequent use In the reclam:~tion oP
the site.
Item 7: Regarding the dimensions of existing roads.
RESPONSE: Dimensions are shown on Exhibits E-1 and E-2. These ros~ds will
be used during the operation and reclamation. Please note that the
main entrance road is primarily used to serve the sawmill operation
and its use for gravel haulage is secondary. No improvements are
planned for these roads other than normal maintenance.
Item 9: (First paragraph) Regarding runoff to the West and the South Prom
disturbed areas in the Western portion of the operation.
RESPONSE: Due to the small drainage area that would supply these locations
along the permit boundary the volume oP water will be quite small
in most storm events. We believe that maintaining a berm or silt
fence Inside the boundary should be sufficient to retain the runoff
on site and/or release the water slowly to downslope ]ands. It
should be recognized that it is not so much the water runnl.ng out
of the permit that is the problem, but sediment the water might
carry. Water running Prom this land to adjacent lands has been
occurring throughout history. Therefore, a berming or silt fencing
should control most of the sediment problem. A silt fence
constructed oP either hay bales or conventional silt fence fabric
would probably control sediment the best. The location oP these are
shown on Exhibits E-1 and E-2.
