Please review and respond to the following issues: <br />Administrative Review: <br />(1) Rule 1.6.2(e), the applicant is required to provide proof of notice to all adjacent landowners <br />identified in the amendment application. The Division has not received proof of notice to the <br />adjacent landowners. <br />(2) Rule 1.6.5(2), the applicant must provide proof of publication. The Division has not received <br />proof of publication. <br />Application Review: <br />Due to the age of the permit many of the exhibits were out of date and required updating. AM -01 <br />consists of these updates as well as the EPP submission. Therefore, this review encompasses material <br />required under Rules 6, Rule 3, and the requirements for the EPP under Rule 6.4.21, Rule 7.3, and Rule <br />7.4 respectively. <br />(1) Rule 6.2.1(2) (b), Maps and Exhibits, must be prepared and signed by a registered land surveyor, <br />professional engineer, or other qualified person. None of the maps submitted by Cotter or <br />Whetstone are signed as required. <br />(2) Exhibit A, the legal description must include all of the permit area. The legal descriptions do <br />identify areas as being part of the lease tract, which should be noted as the upper mine area. <br />Access roads to the upper areas are not described and must be included. <br />(3) The last paragraph on Page A -1 should note the EPP is being prepared for the affected surface <br />areas and associated underground workings of the reclamation permit, not the surface area of <br />the claims. <br />(4) Maps C -1, C -2, and C -3 indicate the Department of Energy Lease Tract and permit areas. <br />However, the maps do not differentiate the permit area from the affected area. Please provide <br />an additional map that is a close up of the permit area and clearly shows the affected areas. <br />(5) On Map C -2, there is a discrepancy between the property name identified as the Black Tom and <br />that owned by Brown Family Trust as Black Point. Please clarify and correct. <br />(6) Page D -1, Paragraph 1, in reference to gobbing waste rock underground, please demonstrate <br />that proposed locations for such activities will not be susceptible to contact with groundwater <br />or surface water intrusions. Gobbing shall not be allowed until the groundwater regime is fully <br />characterized through the EPP process. <br />
