She indicated that she had concerns with <br /> the reclamation plan which the Division had published for bids. I <br /> explained to her that I had no involvement in the reclamation <br /> activities at the mine and that her concerns were better directed <br /> to you. She however launched into her concerns, which are as <br /> follows: <br /> Do we know and approve of what's being done? <br /> What type of technical review of the reclamation plan <br /> developed by Steve Renner have we conducted? <br /> - The reclamation plan published for bid entails construction of <br /> dug-out dozer basins and a swale on the Sutey Refuse Pile. <br /> MCR has always been held to a standard of not creating of <br /> allowing any impoundment of water on the pile. Why are we not <br /> following the same lead. What will impoundment of water on <br /> the pile do to demonstrations of stability. <br /> Expectations of conducting earth moving work in October and <br /> November are not realistic. <br /> I told Diane that I would pass on her concerns to you and that you <br /> would probably touch base with her about these concerns. Before <br /> she called, Steve Renner, Mike Long and I had talked about the need <br /> for a letter to MCR to clearly define responsibilities within the <br /> Division for activities related to MCR. Subsequent to my <br /> conversation with Diane a letter has been sent. I assume that you <br /> received a copy of the letter. <br /> Let me know if you have any questions. <br /> cc: Mike Long <br /> Steve Renner <br />
