RULE 2 PERMITS <br /> 2.04.12 Prime Farmland Investigation <br /> In order to determine the presence of potential prime farmlands within the permit area, a reconnaissance <br /> inspection was conducted to determine if any prime farmland was present in those areas to be disturbed <br /> by surface operations or facilities. Results of the investigation indicate that all of the area to be disturbed <br /> by surface operations or facilities can be excluded as prime farmland, since the land has not historically <br /> been used as cropland. This conclusion is based upon consultation with the local Soil Conservation <br /> Service (SCS). Based also on soil-survey information supplied by the Soil Conservation Service, no soil <br /> series encountered on the area have been designated as soil mapping units applicable as prime farmland. <br /> This conclusion is confirmed by correspondence from Mr. William Lee Hill, the USDA Soil <br /> Conservationist for Moffat County, to Colowyo, enclosed as Exhibit 9, Soils information as a December <br /> 18, 1980 letter from Mr. William Lee Hill of SCS to Colowyo. The letter states that "No lands in Moffat <br /> County have been designated as prime farmland." <br /> Based upon the soil survey conducted by the U.S. Soil Conservation Service and subsequent <br /> interpretation of that survey by the SCS, Colowyo is hereby requesting a negative determination for prime <br /> farmland. <br /> 2.04.13 Annual Reclamation and Hydrolgoy Report <br /> Colowyo will submit the Annual Reclamation Report combined with the Annual Hydrolgoy Report by <br /> March 15 of each year. <br /> Rule 2 Permits 2.04.12-1 Revision Date: 3/13/15 <br /> Revision No.: PR-04 <br />
