As an FYI...there are no <br /> dwellings, pipelines, proposed trenches, proposed structures, or debris disposal areas in the exploration area. <br /> Land excavations (cuttings pits)will be on the pad locations depicted on the project map. We can add a typical <br /> drill pad layout that shows excavations. There are no unique topographic or drainage features potentially <br /> impacted by the proposed drilling. Would a footnote on the map explaining the absence of these features suffice <br /> with the revised map? Ecosphere to address <br /> 2. —You require copies of all federal lease documents, any lease modifications; lease agreements with <br /> Dunn/Ute/Stephens; surface access agreements; and an approved Federal Coal Exploration Plan. As your office <br /> is aware, we are in the process of preparing an Environmental Assessment in coordination with the Tres Rios and <br /> State BLM offices. The requested documents are also being assembled for inclusion with either the EA or the <br /> BLM's records. Federal approval of the exploration is not anticipated until late summer. GCC to address <br /> 3. —A seed mixture has been requested from the UMU but has not yet been provided. Also needed for the EA. <br /> Ecosphere to address <br /> https://mail.g oog le.conVmai I/u/0/?ui=2&i Ire29129fcb5&viev�--pt&search=i nbox&th=14691 aecee5e36c7&si ml=14691 aecee5e36c7 1/3 <br />
