• • <br />(8)(c) Please see Sections D -3 and G -2.2 in the Application and Attachment 7 in the <br />Responses to DMG Comments letter of November 23, 1999, for information concerning <br />geologic media under the Rock School Lease. <br />(8)(d) No major fracture systems are known to occur beneath the Rock School Lease. <br />Please also refer to Attachment 7 in the Responses to DMG Comments letter of <br />November 23, 1999, for more information. <br />(8)(e) Please see Exhibit G in the Application for a description of the hydrogeology of the <br />area. <br />(9) Groundwater Quality Data <br />(9)(a) Ground water in the bedrock formations is greater than 60 feet beneath the surface <br />in the Rock School Lease area, and no known uses of deep ground water occur within <br />two (2) miles of the affected lands. The most likely future uses of deep ground water <br />near the affected lands would be for mining. An alluvial water well, termed 84 Mesa <br />Well as shown on Figure C -3 in the Application, is located near the Lease. This well is <br />also termed AM -1 as shown on Figure 1 in the "Surface and Ground Water Monitoring <br />Plan." This well is used for stock watering and for domestic use and will serve as the up- <br />gradient alluvial well in the monitoring program for the Project. Although not currently <br />in use, the status of another well, DOW 83 -8Y, is unknown. No other alluvial wells in <br />the vicinity of the Rock School Lease are known to be used. Potential future uses include <br />livestock watering and domestic use. Other water wells shown on Figure C -3 have been <br />plugged and abandoned by the owner, Rio Blanco Oil Shale Company. <br />(9)(b) Please see "Surface and Ground Water Monitoring Plan" for surface and ground <br />water monitoring information. <br />(9)(c) Analytical detection parameters recommended by the Division are incorporated <br />into the "Surface and Ground Water Monitoring Plan ". <br />(10) Surface Water Control and Containment Facilities <br />(10)(a) Those items considered environmental protection facilities were listed in Section <br />(7) of this EPP. Design specifications certified by one or more licensed professional <br />engineer(s) for each of these facilities will be submitted to the Division in a Technical <br />Revision at least 60 days before construction commences. <br />(10)(b) The requirements for a storm water management plan for construction of the <br />access road, plant, and other ancillary facilities have been submitted to the Colorado <br />Department of Public Health and Environment, Water Quality Control Division. The <br />completed application form is included with this EPP as Attachment 2. The Storm Water <br />Management Plan for the project consists of all or portions of: the Reclamation Plan <br />submitted with the Application as Exhibit E; the Responses to DMG Comments letter of <br />November 23, 1999; the Process Monitoring and Containment Plan submitted with the <br />Responses to DMG Comments letter of November 23, 1999; and design specifications <br />November 23, 1999 <br />5 AmerAlia, Inc. <br />
