The response also includes adjustments <br />requested by DRMS staff from a field visit on May 21, 2010. Those adjustments include: <br />• The maps have been clarified to show no property not owned or controlled by CSQ is being <br />included in the proposed amendment. <br />• The map adjustments note minor adjustments to boundaries to cover existing structures and <br />proposed permit acreage not reflected correctly in first maps. <br />• Conceptual designs of the stormwater control system have been refined. <br />• Stormwater control structures have been added to the map at the storage area. <br />The review of the information submitted notes a few final issues. Please clarify or correct the following: <br />1) DRMS notes that Gunnison County and CSQ have worked together to address the closure of the <br />trail crossing the permit area for safety reasons. Please provide documentation to support the <br />closure agreement of the trail for safety reasons between the County and the operator. <br />2) While not required, DRMS is requesting that CSQ place in their blasting plan notification of the <br />adjacent landowner a minimum of four (4) hours prior to any surface blasting. The notification <br />required should be by personal contact to ensure if the landowners are present they are aware <br />of the nearby activities. If the adjacent landowners are not present, no further notice will be <br />required and CSQ can proceed as required. Also text should reflect that per MSHA regulations <br />69vo <br />COLORADO <br />DIVISION O F <br />RECLAMATION <br />MINING <br />SAFETY <br />Office of Office of <br />Mined Land Reclamation Denver • Grand Junction • Durango Active and Inactive Mines
