Overall, your responses were <br />appropriate; however, some clarification is needed on several points. Also, the public <br />notice was not published and sent in the correct format. The public notice process will <br />need to be redone, and the public must have adequate time to submit comments or <br />objections to the Division. Given this issue, the office will not be able to approve the <br />application by the decision date of June 28th, 2008. it is not within the offices power to <br />extend the review period, so it rwommended that you request and extension of the <br />decision date to appropriately address the foilowing concerns. <br />i/ 6.3. 3 Exhibit C- MininE Bolan <br />The process of topsoil removal, segregation and replacement was described very clearly. <br />Based on the time frame outlined in your response, the topsoil stockpiles life appears to <br />be about a year to a year and a half, In general, the office recommends that if a topsoil <br />stockpiles life is greater than 180 days, it should be seeded with a fast growing grass <br />species after the pile has been constructed, to stabilize it from wind and water erosion. <br />Please describe how the topsoil stockpile will be stabilized once the topsoil is piled and <br />segregated, please include a description of the grass seed mix that will be used. <br />6.3A Exhibit D - Reclamation Plan <br />For the mvegetation plan, you stated that the area will be seeded with a "Pastureland <br />Mix," please provide more information about the seed mix that will be applied. Please <br />list the species of grasses that will make up the mix, and how many pound of live seed <br />per acre will be applied for each the grass species contained in the mix.
