Both entities informed us that they do not have mineral interests within 200 feet of the 25 Avenue Site. Neither entity is an affected land owner of record (surface area) or owners of the substance to be mined, therefore, they are not included in Exhibit O. Additionally, neither entity owns property, easements, right -of- ways, structures, or utilities within 200 feet of the 25 Avenue Site so they are not included on Exhibit C plan maps. 2.

The owner of the gas easement called out on Exhibit C -5 is Natural Gas Associates, taken from the site title search information.
