JoEllen Turner 970 - 864 -7682 p.6 the false information that was given to the State and the State approving all of these permits and revisions and without the truth did considerable damages to the Morgan property and other properties and not do ONE thing to WFC for their actions. And Mr. Berry said "in hindsight" this should have NEVER happened. Well, Mr. Berry, PR -07 is your hindsight because it just repeated all the lies and false documentation that was presented before. And it has just kicked into overdrive. This was completely a violation of our rights under the ACT because we were not protected nor was WFC forced to correct the damages that they have done. Every thing that has been done to us is a violation of our civil, citizens and Landowner rights under the act. So, yes, our rights have been completely violated under the ACT and the State is backing WFC and not maintaining or enforcing the ACT and the rules and regulations governing our property and we as landowners are not being protected and our rights are not being protected as described under the ACT and the rules and regulations and the ACT are suppose to be enforced and they have not been. We have been required by the State and OSM to follow all procedures and to abide by all rules and regulations and the ACT and these were not written for the LAND OWNER, these were written to govern the surface coal mining and WFC so, again our rights have been violated, we followed, they didn't and still right now with PR -07 and with the renewal of their permit in violation because they are not in compliance with the ACT or the rules and regulations governing surface coal mining. AND NON - COMPLIANCE IS IF ONE , JUST ONE, RULE, REGULATION, OR THE ACT HAS BEEN VIOLATED. Dear Mr. Berry, Miss Pinata, Kenneth Walker, Rick Williamson, Al Klein and the higher up people: We want the HIGHEST people in your departments to contact us, Any contact with NRCS regarding this property, we are demanding to a part of that conversation or phone conference Pr -07 is totally illegal and against all the rules and regulations governing surface coal mining. OSM had ordered a soil sampling and data gathering order. But, that is what the revision that we were given states. It was to gather information. At no time in the revision that we were shown did it give WFC the AUTHORITY to compile that data and take their hired guns and form a conclusion. First off, the ONLY one that has the authority to decide if a piece of property is prime farmland is the government appointed agency NRCS. This is the law, part of the Act and included many times in the rules and regulations. This is a law because it does not allow for HIRED GUNS to be bought and paid for to make whatever decision a coal mine might be seeking. The Rules and Regulations governing the determination of prime farmlands are very SPECIFIC and are spelled out continuously and no individual soil scientist or mining operation has the authority or the right to change those rules and regulations just to suit themselves and their needs because they do not want to have to fulfill their obligations under the law. Pr -07 is not concise, has numerous fragmented sentences, numerous FALSEHOODS, and relies on and I Quote "ASSUMPTIONS." This is all illegal and cannot be used to get a permit in compliance. Permits are suppose to based on FACTS not "ASSUMPTIONS ". Many lies are stated in the presentation of Pr -07 to the State. But most of all, these are the flat out lies that Mr. Berry said would never happen and a complete re -play of the first Pr -06. First statement by Greg Lewicki is that revegetation for irrigated cropland and are the same for non- primefarmland and prime farmland. This is untrue. 1 worked for WFC for 5 1 Page
