RE: Limon Pit; DRMS File No. M- 2013 -080; Adequacy Review — 02
Dear Mr. Keller,
The Division has identified several other comments and questions that must be addressed prior to
the Division's decision due date. Please be advised that if you are unable to satisfactorily
address any concerns identified in this review before the decision date, it will be your
responsibility to request an extension of the review period. If there are outstanding issues
that have not been adequately addressed prior to the end of the review period, and no
extension has been requested, the Division will deny this application.
1.6.2 General Applicant Procedures
1. As required by Rule 1.6.2 (1)(g), please submit proof of the public notice that was placed in a
newspaper of general circulation.
6.4.3 Exhibit C — Pre - Mining and Mining Plan Map(s) of Affected Lands
2. The map submitted for Exhibit C (General Layout with Existing Conditions) contains a note
(Note #4) which states that the reclaimed area will have a berm along the Big Sandy Creek.
This note contradicts the Reclamation Plan, which states that the berm will be removed
during reclamation. Please revise this map to reflect the Reclamation Plan.
3. The map submitted for Exhibit C (General Layout with Existing Conditions) specifies the
size of each phase. The three phases identified on the map cover a total of 127.3 acres.
However, the map and the application form state that the permit area is 108.04 acres in size.
Please clarify this discrepancy and revise the size of the phases so that they equal the permit
area.
6.4.6. Exhibit F — Reclamation Plan Map
4. The Reclamation Plan Maps (P1, P2, P3) identify three phases that cover a total of 127.3
acres. However, the application form states that the permit area is 108.04 acres in size. Please
clarify this discrepancy and revise the size of the phases so that they equal the permit area.
