Page 2.05-3 indicates that the mine permit area encompasses approximately <br />21,720 acres, with 13,090 affected acres, and 510.4 disturbed acres. These numbers are in <br />contrast to the Division's numbers of 19,940 permitted acres, 19,471.85 affected, and 616.72 <br />disturbed. Please clarify the correct number of acres the mine permit encompasses, or address <br />discrepancies with the Division's acreage amounts. <br />Response: In order to address identified inconsistencies in the acreages figures for the "Permitted", <br />"Affected", and "Disturbed" areas, TC digitized the Permit Area Boundary and the "Affected Area" <br />boundary from the most recent update (PR09-08, 09/09) of the Mine Plan Map (Map 23). The <br />digitized Mine Permit Area is 22,447 acres (show as 22,450 acres), and the digitized "Affected Area" <br />is 14,376 acres. The "Affected Area" also includes any "Disturbed Areas" that are not within the <br />digitized "Affected Area" footprint, or +524.2 acres, so the total "Affected Area" is 14,900 acres. <br />The total permitted "Disturbance Area" is 609.4 acres. This figure reflects reconciliation of the <br />disturbed area acreage in conjunction with the 2009 Annual Reclamation Report, and the additional <br />disturbance permitted through revisions during 2010. Those PAP pages which include relevant <br />acreage figures have been updated to reflect these figures, and copies of the revised pages accompany <br />these responses for insertion in the PAP.
