C-1981-008 July 23, 2010 <br />PR-06 Page 2 of 31 <br />IA. WFC revised Section 2.03. <br />Rule 2.03.6 - Right of Entry and Operation Information <br />2. On Page 4 of Attachment 2.03.8-1, Legal Description of the NH 1 mine: "Range" is misspelled, <br />and the number given is "15, 16" rather than just "16". Please correct these items, and <br />change the square footage to "approximately 4,295,925 square feet". <br />Rule 2.04.3 General Requirements: Site Description and Land Use Information <br />3. Resolved. <br />3A. The supplemental photo base maps 2.04.3-2 and 2.04.3-3 were removed (so stated in the <br />response table for Item 3A). Given that the Morgan prime farmland areas were designated <br />Irrigated Cropland in their entirety (with the exception of stock pond and farmstead areas), <br />deletion of the supplemental photo maps is acceptable. However, the two supplemental maps <br />are still listed at the end of the section table of contents, under "List of Maps". If the intent is to <br />remove the two maps from the permit application, please revise the table of contents <br />accordingly. <br />4. Resolved. Objectionable language was removed from the section narrative as requested. WFC <br />has revised premine land use designations on the Morgan property from Irrigated Pasture and <br />Irrigated Pasture Hayland to Irrigated Cropland, based on information provided by the Morgan <br />family regarding historic management practices, and based on the extent of prime farmland soils <br />on the Morgan property. <br />4A. Resolved. <br />NEW ITEMS <br />4A-1. The term "farmland" is introduced on page 7 of Subsection 2.0. The term is not defined until <br />near the end of page 8, in Subsection 3.0. "Farmland" is typically considered synonymous with <br />"cropland", but in the context it has a broader connotation, and includes all irrigated cropland <br />and pastureland, which is somewhat confusing. A more appropriate term would be "agricultural <br />land". Please revise the first sentence of Subsection 2.0 as follows: "Land use adjacent to the <br />New Horizon Permit area is either irrigated agricultural land (irrigated pastureland or irrigated <br />cropland), abandoned..." In the remainder of Subsection 2.0 and Subsection 3.0, please replace <br />the term "farmland" with the term "agricultural land". <br />4A-2. In Subsection 3.0, the amended last sentence of the 4th paragraph on page 9 does not clearly <br />distinguish between IPH and IP. The distinction would be clearer if the following wording were <br />used: "Pastureland includes Pastureland Irrigated Hay (IPH), which is alfalfa/grass or grass <br />pastureland that is harvested for hay most years, and Pastureland Irrigated Grass (IP), is grass <br />dominated pastureland that is generally not harvested for hay". Please consider this <br />recommendation and revise the sentence appropriately.
