Mr. G. Russell Means <br />Re: Camilletti Pit Amendment, Adequacy Letter Response <br />December 19, 2008 <br />Page 2 of 5 <br />3. Per Rule 6.2.1(2)(b) all maps must be signed by a registered land surveyor, professional <br />engineer, or other qualified person, given date prepared and identify and outline the area <br />which corresponds with the application. Staff notes no signatures on any maps. Also <br />present maps do not clearly show the permit boundaries. They.show lease and.parcel <br />boundaries. Some areas.currently disturbed appear to be outside of parcel boundaries <br />and the permit. The fuel tanks and reclamation currently identifiable on the maps appear <br />to be outside boundaries. Please clearly define permit and affected area boundaries on <br />all maps and required signatures. <br />All maps have been revised to include professional engineer signatures, and have <br />also been revised to include a detailed description of the permit boundaries. The <br />revised maps are included as an attachment to this letter. <br />The fuel tank identified on the original submission was used for other operations <br />in the area, However, the tank is currently empty and will be moved within the <br />mining limits in anticipation of removal from the site during the first quarter of <br />2009. The disturbed :area that was observed was the result of previous operations <br />in approximately 1987, prior to Connell Resources taking over the mining <br />operations. This discrepancy has been addressed in previous inspections. <br />4. 64.2 -Exhibit B, Index Map is acceptable with the exception of the required signature. <br />See revised Exhibit B, Vicinity Map, attached. <br />5. 64.3 -Exhibit C, Pre-Mining and Mining Maps. <br />(a) Please note all adjoining land owners, <br />See revised Exhibit C-1 (Existing Conditions) and Exhibit C-2 (Mining Plan) <br />maps, attached. <br />6 64.4 -Exhibit D, Mining Plan <br />(i) Please specify whether any explosives will or will not be used in the course of mining <br />operations. <br />Connell Resources does not intend to use explosives in the course of mining <br />operations. <br />7. 6.4.5 - Exhibit E, Reclamation Plan <br />3.1.3: It is noted that reclamation will be done concurrently with mining. However the <br />site visit and annual reports indicate I acre has been reclaimed of the 16 currently <br />disturbed. Please clarify how concurrent reclamation is planned for the current <br />disturbance-as well as furutre when it appears that it has not been followed to date. <br />Due to the relatively . small area available for mining operations,. much of 'the <br />reclamation has been restricted to the approximately 1-acre that was observed
