Corey Heaps <br />CAM Colorado LLC <br />June 21, 2011 Page 47 <br />There is a 39 -acre landfarm area consisting of former evaporation ponds. There are odor <br />issues associated with this area and the surface soils appear to be sterile since they are <br />completely devoid of vegetation. It would not be practical to have a future land use of fish <br />and wildlife, or rangeland for that matter as the area clearly has an industrial past and <br />clearly will have an industrial future. Therefore, based on the past use of the site, the <br />industrial pre - mining and post- mining land use zoning from the County, and the odor <br />issues associated with the site, Industrial is the highest and best use of the lands. Please <br />see revised pages 2.05 -40 and 41. <br />Division Response: Response accepted. <br />83. The type of support activities that would be needed to achieve the industrial land use are <br />not addressed, beyond the statement that the use would be achieved by reclaiming the <br />disturbed area in accordance with Section 2.05.4. The fact is that unless /until a specific <br />postmine industrial use for the site is determined, details regarding necessary support <br />measures cannot be known. However, at present, reclamation of the site to support a future <br />industrial use would entail facilities removal, site grading, burial or coverage of exposed <br />industrial wastes, and establishment of a stabilizing vegetation cover. Please include <br />explanation using language similar to the above, within the narrative of Section 2.05.5. <br />CAM Response: Please see revised page 2.05 -40. <br />Division Response: Response accepted. <br />83a. On page 2.05 -43, CAM states that the applicant is in the process of obtaining Mesa <br />County approval of the project. Please expand upon this and describe the type of <br />permit that is being sought and also list this information in Section 2.03.10. <br />Rule 2.05.6(1) Air Pollution Control Plan <br />84. On page 2.05 -43 there is an incorrect reference to the location of the air emission permit <br />application. It should be Volume I, Tab 11 not Tab 10. <br />CAM Response: Please see revised page 2.05 -43. <br />Division Response: Response accepted. <br />Rule 2.05.6(2) Fish and Wildlife Plan <br />85. In Subsection (2)(a)(i), the applicant commits to using best management practices for <br />watershed protection during construction activities. Presumably, those activities would <br />relate to the installation of both short term and long term drainage and sediment control, <br />and soil stabilization measures, in both the primary facilities area and along roads and the <br />rail spur. Please summarize the practices that will be employed, and reference the relevant <br />
