Corey Heaps <br />CAM Colorado LLC <br />June 21, 2011 <br />Page 46 <br />Division Response: Response accepted. <br />Rule 2.05:4(2)(h) Other Permits <br />80. This requirement needs to be addressed in the PAP at the bottom of page 2.05 -38. Please <br />add a reference here to the locations of approved permits or applications for permit(s) <br />demonstrating compliance with all other applicable air and water quality laws and <br />regulations and health and safety standards. The Division understands that CAM has <br />applied for the appropriate permit from the Army Corps of Engineers for the wetland <br />disturbances and for an NPDES permit will provide copies to the Division for insertion into <br />the PAP when the permits are obtained. <br />CAM Response: Please see revised page 2.05 -40 <br />Division Response: Response accepted. <br />Rule 2.05.5 Postmining Land Uses <br />81. Please refer to Item 3 of this letter, under "Site Description and Land Use Information" <br />regarding requested map and narrative clarifications pertinent to both premising and <br />postmining land uses. Provision of separate premising and postmining maps may be <br />warranted for clarification, as noted in Item 3. <br />CAM Response: Comment noted, and addressed in Site Description and Land Use section. <br />Division Response: Response accepted: <br />82. In section 2.04.3(2)(b), narrative states that "the barren lands east of Reed Wash are <br />limited to some future industrial use ", and narrative in Section 2.05.5(2)(a)(iii) states that <br />industrial use is considered to be the highest and best use of the lands to be reclaimed to the <br />east of Reed Wash. Please include further discussion pursuant to 2.05.5(2)(a), addressing <br />the utility and capacity of the lands east of Reed Wash within the permit area, and why a <br />future industrial use is the highest and best use of the lands. Consider revision of the <br />"Industrial" land use boundary to coincide with the Previously Disturbed Lands perimeter, <br />or provide justification for designation of Reed Wash as the boundary between "Industrial" <br />and "Fish and Wildlife Habitat" land use areas. <br />CAM Response: The "Industrial" land use boundary has been changed on Map -07 to <br />coincide with the Previously Disturbed lands perimeter. The highest and best use of the <br />land is Industrial because that is what currently exists, and how the land is zoned with the <br />County. As discussed in section 2.04.3, the site adjoins the former Fruita Refinery to the <br />east. To the south there are former evaporation ponds and undeveloped areas and in the <br />future south of the permit boundary a gravel pit is planned. The land east of Reed Wash is <br />currently unused and is a remnant of the former petroleum refinery operations to the east. <br />
