review of Energy Fuels' Conditional Use Application on November 29, 2007. Energy <br />Fuels does not object to the restriction as currently proposed. <br />Copies of the current surface alteration permits with the county will be forwarded <br />electronically to you and also included in Appendix F of the revised Plan of Operations. <br />Sections 5.12 and 8.3 of the Plan of Operations will be expanded to include the additional <br />road maintenance details outlined above. <br />I1. Page 8-5: Specify peak traffic hours. What will be the disposal method for the <br />wastewater used by employees (showering, etc.)? <br />Peak traffic hours occur at the start (between 7 and 9 AM) and end (between 4 and 6 PM) <br />of the normal workday. Testing for a septic system will occur this fall and the system will <br />be installed as soon -as the Plan of Operations is approved. The portable -dry,- currently <br />approved as part of exploration activities, will be installed with two wastewater lines. <br />Gray water from the showers and sinks will be temporarily routed to the Untreated Water <br />Tank while waste from the toilets will be directed to a closed container that will be <br />periodically pumped out by a commercial septic service. Once the septic tank and leach <br />field are installed, all wastewater will be directed to the septic system. <br />12. Page 8-6: ACE 404 Permit: mention that drainages need to be considered waters of <br />the U.S. and the Corps regulates fill only. <br />The statement on page 8-6 will be expanded to include more discussion on the Corps and <br />regulation of fill placed in drainages. Only jurisdictional drainages are considered waters <br />of the U.S. The drainage just west of the Whirlwind portal is obviously jurisdictional; <br />however, smaller drainages on top of the mesa may or may not be jurisdictional. Enemy <br />Fuels does not intend to impact any drainages at this time. If this should change, we <br />would request a jurisdictional determination from the Corps and submit a permit <br />application to them, where appropriate. For example, installation of a culvert to access a <br />remote ventilation shaft could trigger the need for a Nationwide Permit Application if the <br />drainage is considered jurisdictional. The BLM would be copied on all such <br />correspondence. <br />13. Page 8-25: "All chemicals used on site ...are non-toxic. "This statement needs to be <br />revised/clarifiedfnr the quantities or concentrations used. Misleading. <br />We are aware that any chemical, even water, can be toxic if ingested or inhaled in certain <br />quantities. The paragraph will be revised to indicate that the chemicals are non-toxic <br />when used properly in the quantities and concentrations specified. Details regarding the <br />handling of chemicals will be included in the revised MC/SPCC Plan in Appendix F (see <br />Response 9 above). <br />14. Page 8-26: Include list of water quality parameters to be analyzed every 6 months. <br />Will suspended sediment be included? <br />, ~ ~: , <br />~.".)5C~1'~?R' ~ Clt lti i~c:~:(~titt't'~ ~'ftti-~~£}t-<tt?t1i! :;t~- ~Jtlt{ta ~54~t?~:'k'~tiC~. `~1~t1'_' ~le)t} S <br />
