Its proposed measures to protect federal <br />resources and the post mining land use are consistent with the design features identified in the <br />ROD. No additional conditions of approval are required to protect federal resources and support <br />the post mining land use as defined in the Forest Plan for the GMUG National Forest. <br />Please contact Ryan Taylor at (970) 527-4131 with any questions you may have <br />Sincerely, <br />LEVI K.
