Memo to Wally Erickson 4 August 2, 2009 <br />Second Review of Access Road Construction File Na M-2006-069 <br />During the telephone meeting held on June 23, 2009, the use of native timber for retention of road fill was <br />discussed. Paul Martin, who provided design and construction oversight services for the road, stated that the <br />road was built to provide access to the Idaho Mill during the first few years of operation only. Mr. Martin <br />stated that the mad would then be rebuilt using permanent fill retention structures. Previously, Wildcat <br />Mining had stated in permit application documents that the road was permanent, and would remain to <br />provide property access following closure and reclamation of the Idaho 1 CIL Therefore, Wildcat must <br />provide a clarifying statement that includes the following elements: <br />1. The road as it is currently constructed is temporary and its removal is a requirement of the <br />reclamation plan. <br />2. If and when the Operator decides to. rebuild the road to a permanent configuration, a modification to <br />the permit must be approved for the road prior to commencement of construction. <br />3. Until the modification is approved and the permanent road is satisfactorily constructed, the DRMS <br />will hold sufficient reclamation bond for removal of the road and reclamation of the affected area. <br />enclosure(s) <br />cc: Kate Pickford, DRMS (w/ enclosures) <br />Stave Shuey, DBMS (w/ enclosures) <br />c:laca McAmy Documents 4-19-06 dwlidaho mill wand road mview.docx
