The Division received Twentymile Coal's (TC's) application for a permit revision (PR -09) on
August 7, 2011. The application was determined to be complete on August 17, 2011. No
concerns have been received from other agencies regarding this proposed permit revision as of
the date of this letter. The Division received TC's adequacy responses in a letter dated February
15, 2013 and received on February 19, 2013. The Division has completed its secondary adequacy
review of the proposed permit revision based on the responses provided by TC. Please respond
to the following comments or concerns as necessary:
1. Division's Initial Comment: Based on a review of the ownership and control section of
the currently approved permit application package for the Foidel Creek Mine, comparing
the section with the current information in the Applicant violator System (AVS), there is
discrepancies that will need to be addressed by Twentymile Coal. Please address the
following discrepancies listed below....
TC Response: An updated listing of officers and directors, which matches current
information in the Applicant Violator System, accompanies these responses for
replacement in Exhibit 47. This response is adequate.
2. Division Initial Comment: Based on the PR -9 application, TC is requesting an increase
of 560 permit area acres and 500 affected area acres in the Western Mining District.
Under the Western Mining District heading of approved page 2.01 -4, 3,620 is identified
as the amount of affected area added and 1,013 is identified as the amount of permit area
added due to the WMD. The PR -9 proposed page 2.01 -4 identifies 3,650 affected area
and 1,335 permit area. There appears to be a discrepancy in the total amounts of acreage
associated with the WMD. Please discuss the discrepancy in affected and permit area
