TR-62- Midterm Review Responses (2-d round) <br />Page 2 <br />6a We note one editorial error; on amended page 20-2.1, under Access Roads - Documentation, the first sentence is a <br />fragment r :... consists of. ') Please revise the text to properly complete the sentence. <br />Response: The sentence has been corrected. <br />6e For other structures including fencing and powerlines, for which landowner requests have notyet been provided, <br />please include a commitment within amended Attachment 20-2 to provide such landowner requestsprior to <br />submittal of the pertinent phased bond release application. The Division recognises that such commitment to <br />comply with regulatory requirements might be viewed as redundant. However, we feel that in this case it is <br />warranted, as a caution against potential future misinterpretation that all facilities delineated on the approved <br />Postmining topography map have necessarily been approved as permanent facilities. <br />Response: <br />SCC understands that the Division cannot provide final approval or bond release for all the proposed <br />permanent features until all documentation is received. The compilation of all the documentation does <br />not happen overnight, therefore SCC has provided the Division with a list of the proposed permanent <br />features and will continue to update Attachment 20-2 as pertinent documents and other agency approvals <br />are received. SCC has taken this approach to minimize the continual revising of the postmining <br />topography map and the reclamation schedules. <br />In the previous adequacy response, SCC provided a cover sheet listing the status of permanent features <br />and structures by landowner and the status of permanent pond demonstrations. SCC realizes that bond <br />will not be released until all permanent structures are approved. SCC will continue to update this section <br />(Attachment 20-2), as needed, prior to the applicable bond release application. <br />Enclosed are the updated materials for this technical revision response, one (1) copy has been sent to the <br />Denver office addressed to you and two (2) copies have been sent to the Grand junction office <br />addressed to you.
