p.3 <br />for our involvement in these decisions and we have been continuously ignored. This is <br />discrimination against Mr. Morgan and his rights as the landowner of the Prime Farmland being <br />mined. <br />Technical Revisions as well as Minor Revisions have been made concerning Prime Farmlands <br />that made and developed MAJOR changes to the soil handling and reclamation of Prime <br />Farmlands and these revisions have been used illegally. Major changes cannot be made using <br />technical or minor revisions governing Prime Farmlands. <br />Untrue Facts and information has been documented concerning our Prime Farmlands that should <br />have never been allowed. Mr. Morgan has historically crapped and irrigated this Prime Farmland <br />for 50 years and was and still is the largest producer of Alfalfa in this entire area. Mr. Morgan <br />does not have livestock and has no need for any other type of land on his property except that o <br />crops. He raises enough feed for most of the cattle and sheep producers in this area and has since <br />1985. I will send a letter signed by all the ranchers in this area <br />False documentation has been used continuously to dis qualify Prime soils, Barx and Darvey <br />soils on numerous acres of land within the permit area. Alluvials have been disregarded and <br />done away with, they have been Mined right through as was our Prime Farmland. Our Prime <br />Farmland soils were stolen by Western Fuels and put on another persons property and DRMS <br />allowed this to happen and did nothing to recover our prime soils over a 50 acre piece. Soils <br />worth over 2 million, closer to 3 million dollars. Soils were removed for three days and three <br />nights, 90 truck loads per day, 100 ton per truck load that DRMS could have made them return <br />but did nothing for months until all the soils were spread on Bensons property and gone. False <br />documentation using a letter by NRCS Dean Stindt to disprove Barx soils which was used <br />illegally and inappropriately by DRMS and WFC 23 times. <br />Continuous request to the DRMS, Mr. Berry, and to the OSM, Mr. Fulton, to please come and <br />meet with us and let us show them what has happened and is happening present day. Our <br />property is not being put back as it was with it's depth of natural soils. The slopes are also wrong <br />affecting the way we used to irrigate. We have been denied and ignored. Decisions have been <br />made without ever coming over here and talking with us and allowing us the opportunity to <br />SHOW them what has and is happening. Mr. Morgan has been disregarded in all respects. He is <br />blind and they are taking advantage of this. <br />Public notices are not accurate according to the minimum requirements set forth in the laws <br />governing any major changes to a persons property. Prime Farmland must be returned to <br />CROPLAND, there is no exceptions to this law. Determinations and plans OF SOIL <br />REMOVAL AND RECLAMATION WAS NEVER PUT IN PLACE PRIOR TO THE MINE <br />MINING THIS PROPERTY AND THEY ARE 2/3 done and still have no official, legal plan. <br />Mr. Morgan property must be returned to cropland in alfalfa as the lease requires and as the <br />Federal and State laws commit to. The Entire acreage that is being mined is Prime Farmland and <br />has been historically used as cropland since 1959. Mr. Morgan is the largest shareholder of the <br />water supply which is CC ditch which has been here since the 1890's.
