JoEllen Turner <br />970 - 864 -7682 p.4 <br />Lewicki states truck shovel loaded in dump trucks. Make sense of that if you can. There <br />is no such thing, how incompetent. This permit revision is totally unfactual, grammar <br />problems, fragmented sentences, thrown out facts from prior pemuitting, false hoods, no <br />knowledge of the rules and regulations and the SOIL SCIENTIST has NO <br />KNOWLEDGE OF THE RULES AND REGULATIONS GOVERNING SURFACE COAL <br />MINING IN COLORADO. "To prevent unnecessary contamination, adequate extent of <br />topsoil was salvaged from the edge of a road, embankment, ditch, cut slope, and toe of <br />fill." Where would they have possibly come up with this?'?? <br />In the original permit, ALL OF THE PROPERTIES WERE DONE IN A TWO LIFT <br />OPERATION!!! IT WAS NOT UNTIL THEY ENTERED OUR PROPERTY AND <br />FALSELY PRESENTED MINOR REVISION 51 AND MINOR 57 THAT CHANGED ALL <br />OF THAT ILLEGALLY!!!! Even for non -prime farmland 4.06 it must be done in separate <br />lifts and especially for any agricultural lands. This was not an accident, this was <br />deliberate and costly, and causing significant irreparable damages to our property and <br />the landowners and it is continuously doing even today.. Again, the soil scientist talked <br />with WFC and not with the landowners to see what happened here. They have not been <br />given the ABSOLUTE TRUTH NOR HAVE THEY TALKED WITH ANY OF THE <br />LANDOWNERS HERE CONFIRMING OUR LAND. Just so you know, prior to 1959 <br />when Mr. Morgan bought this place, it was also FARMED. The people owning the <br />property were killed in a car wreck in Florida and James Johnson leased the place while <br />it was in an estate and farmed it all the time. Leland Bennet who was about 14 or 15 at <br />that time, irrigated and helped buck hay and it was constantly irrigated and farmed. So, <br />maybe, if these so called hired guns had actually wanted some history and proof of the <br />barx soils from the SCS records in 1960 and forward, we could have showed them all of <br />this. As presented DISCOVERY Mr. Morgan presented his TAXES from IRS from 1953 <br />on, the ORIGINALS!!! They could have seen everything if they really had wanted to <br />know. WFC has copies of these as presented in discovery. Showing some of the hay <br />customers of 50 years ago. Also these soils scientist might have understood that ALL of <br />these places that WFC has classified as PASTURELANDS were in sfact, cropped and <br />irrigated EVERY year with 2 and 3 cuttings and should have been classified per 1.04 <br />definitions as CROPLAND. These properties raised the crops all summer and the <br />farmers put up these crops, wheat, corn, hay, silage, etc. to feed their cattle ALL winter. <br />And, then when spring came and BLM or other pastures higher up became available , <br />they moved their cattle and began planting, and harvesting all over again. Dejoia <br />classified our property as PASTURELANDS and he was TOLD RIGHT TO HIS FACE <br />THAT WE HAD NO PASTURELANDS AND HAD HAD NO LIVESTOCK SINCE 1987 <br />AND HE CHOSE TO IGNORE US!!! I told Marcia in front of everyone there at the office <br />while we were preparing to go to the sampling area that we had no pasturelands and I <br />wanted this removed out of their documentation and she guaranteed us that it had been <br />taken out and cropland put in. <br />Again, "SUITABLE SUBSOIL" being used. There was no suitable subsoil used on the <br />Morgan property. The Bench one material was extremely rocky, again rocks as big as <br />my volkswagon as pictures have been submitted proving this. The so called suitable <br />subsoil was never found or proven to be suitable. NO TEST WERE EVER DONE <br />PRIOR TO LAYING THAT BENCH ONE AS SUBSOIL AND ALSO AGAINST THE <br />RULES AND REGULATIONS, IF A MATERIAL IS TO BE USED A A SUITABLE <br />1a1 PAge <br />
