c. Please see the attached memorandum prepared by Wright Water Engineers, Inc. that <br />concludes that there are no bedrock aquifers within or adjacent to the permit area that <br />should be listed as renewable resource lands. The terms "water bearing bedrock" and <br />"water-bearing alluvium" are not synonymous with "bedrock aquifer", so these resources <br />were not added to the new table. <br />d. MCC believes that the Monument Dam and Minnesota Reservoir discussions <br />regarding subsidence monitoring and potential future repairs are sufficiently discussed in <br />section 2.05.6 (6) on pages 2.05-150 and 2.05-172 of the current permit text., as well as <br />in Exhibits 72, 74, and 76 in Volume 14. Therefore the discussions on permit page 2.05- <br />109 have been deleted. See the revised page attached. <br />9. A definition for "angle of draw" was added as a footnote to Table 42 on page 2.05-10.5 as <br />follows. "The angle-of-draw is the angle between a vertical line drawn upward to the <br />ground surface from the edge of a mined panel (or section of panels) and a line drawn <br />from the edge of a mined panel (or section of panels) to the point of zero surface <br />subsidence (i.e. where there is no measurable or evident subsidence on the ground <br />surface.) The definition of "critical mining width" was also moved from the general text <br />above the table and inserted as a footnote to the table.
