The distance has been corrected. No further <br />action necessary. <br />9) Areas 1 thru 6 - Section 6 is in R 15 W, as opposed to R 158 W. Please correct this <br />typographical error. The Range has been corrected. No further action necessary. <br />10) Areas 7 and 8 - These areas are shown on Map R-2 and described in the table on Page 11 <br />of the application. Please provide a written description of the dimensions of these areas <br />(County Roads BB, 2700, and 5th Avenue) if they are to be included in SL-11. <br />The county roads will not be included in SL-11 (refer to comment 2, above). No <br />further action necessary. <br />11) Page 9 - Dates Reclamation Work Performed - Map R-1 actually shows the years that <br />each Phase 1 area achieved bond release (which may or may not be the year that each <br />area was reclaimed). Please verify, and modify the text if necessary. The text has been <br />modified. No further action necessary. <br />Contrary to the application, Map R-2 does not show the years that each Phase 2 area was <br />reclaimed; the statement is in error. Please delete the statement, or revise Map R-2 <br />accordingly. The statement has been deleted. No further action necessary. <br />12) Page 9- Description of Bond Release Amount: See preceding comment regarding Map <br />R-2. No further action necessary. <br />13) Phase 2 Mine Areas (Page 10) - Area 7 (2700 Road and BB Road) is included in this <br />table, and is also shown on Map R-2. The application does not elsewhere refer to Area 7. <br />The table on page 10 comments, for area 7, "Road in final contour and condition <br />according to permit." Please elaborate on to what "permit" this comment refers. <br />Section 2.05.3(3)-8 of the PAP includes SU-99-0834, the special use permit with <br />Montrose County, approved on 21-Oct-1999. It makes reference to various specifications <br />to be used in construction of the county roads, but contains no design details (roadway <br />plan, profile, width, layer thicknesses, right-of-way width, etc.). Please provide the <br />Division with the engineering design plans utilized in the reconstruction of 2700 Road <br />and BB Road, along with evidence that the Montrose County Engineer approved the <br />plans. <br />The county roads will not be included in SL-11 (refer to comment 2, above). No <br />further action necessary.
