New Horizon Mine TR-57 <br />2nd Adequacy Review <br />21-Oct-2008 <br />Page 11 of 15 <br />Please provide additional clarification regarding winter topsoil stripping on <br />amended page (d)-22, to clarify that topsoil stripping would not be conducted if <br />soils are frozen to the extent that soil physical characteristics are negatively <br />impacted or proper lift separation and salvage are compromised <br />29. Table 2.05.4(2)(d) Topsoil Stockpile Inventory lists Stockpiles A though K as located <br />west of 27 Rd., and Stockpiles 1 through 10 as East of 27 Road. This listing appears <br />to be reversed. Also, Stockpiles 3 and 4 are both identified as "Mixed" on the table <br />and in text, but on Map 2.04.9-2, Stockpile 4 is listed as "Lift A". Please clarify and <br />amend the table, map, and text as warranted. <br />Item Resolved <br />30. The 2nd paragraph on page 2.05.4(2)(d)-23 references topsoil balances shown on <br />Table 2.05.4(2)(d)-3. The reference should be to Table 2.05.4(2)(d)-4. Please amend <br />the reference. <br />In the amended Section 2.05.4(2)(d), the narrative reference was not changed, <br />although some of the table numbering was changed, and there appear to be a <br />number of additional table number referencing errors in the amended text. We <br />note the following apparent errors with respect to narrative references to tables <br />in the section. <br />• At the top of amended page (d)-22, the reference to Table (d)-3 appears to <br />be incorrect; correct reference would appear to be Table (d)-5. <br />• In the last paragraph of amended page (d)-24, the reference to Table (d) <br />appears to be incorrect; correct reference would appear to be Table (d)-2. <br />Also, we note an apparent error on amended Table (d)-2. "West Side of <br />27 Road" listing in the bottom right corner of the table is erroneous, as <br />the corresponding volume reflects the total topsoil stockpile volume for <br />both the east side and west side of 27 Road. <br />• In the second paragraph on amended page (d)-26, the reference to Table <br />(d)-3 appears to be incorrect; proper reference would appear to be Table <br />(d)-6. <br />• In the first paragraph on amended page (d)-33, the Table (d)-3 reference <br />to 14,731 cy soil excavation from Pond 13 disturbance appears to be in <br />error; proper reference would appear to be Table (d)-2. <br />Please address these apparent errors and amend the text and table(s) as <br />warranted. <br />31. The 2nd paragraph on page (d)-28 contains extraneous wording have had topsoil <br />replacement for the areas which). Please delete the extraneous wording. <br />Item Resolved <br />32. The narrative listing of prime farmland subsoil parameters to be'tested, at the <br />beginning of the final paragraph on page (d)-28, does not entirely match up to the list <br />11
