We hope to address the issues raised in your letter by the information we provide in the following <br /> paragraphs and the attached exhibit materials. Your adequacy letter included language from the Rules <br /> and Regulations for many items and exhibits that you identified as being already adequately addressed, <br /> but this response will include only headings and subjects requiring a response. Our responses, starting <br /> below, are arranged similarly to the questions shown in your letter,to help facilitate your review. <br /> Public Review: We will ensure that this adequacy response packet to you will be placed for public review <br /> with the Custer County Clerk and Recorder, and we will provide a receipt to you for such placement of <br /> materials. If said receipt is not enclosed herewith, it will be sent to you promptly. <br /> Boundary Markers: We will endeavor to mark the proposed permit boundaries for the upcoming site <br /> inspection.

Given the 146-acre size of the 112c permit area proposed, and that all activity described in this <br /> conversion is limited to "Phase I" of the expanded permit area, which lies south of the overhead electric <br /> lines, we felt that providing detailed mining and reclamation maps which include only Phase I would be <br /> adequate, especially when reproduced at the appropriate scale. <br /> Affected areas within the proposed 112c permit will be located south of the electric lines(Phase 1) and <br /> north of the electric lines(Phase II). This application seeks to expand the permit area, but only Phase I <br /> activities are currently being considered and thus described in this application. Eventually the operator <br />
