Dear Susan:
AUIi p 7 1995
Division of rwineiais s Geology
- - In my July 13-, 1995--letter to Erica Crosby=,-I requested that-the ---
following condition be included in your permit approval for the
Yoast Mine:
No surface coal mining operations shall be conducted on
lands containing leased Federal coal until the Secretary of
the Interior has approved the mining plan. The Division
reserves the right to modify the permit, when appropriate,
in order to resolve conflicts between the permit
requirements and the requirements of other laws, rules and
regulations administered by the Secretary of the Interior.
In response to questions concerning the applicability of this
condition to the two Federal leases within the proposed Yoast
permit area, I would like to modify the condition to read as
follows:
No surface coal mining operations shall be conducted on
Federal lease C-0114093 until the Secretary of the Interior
has approved the mining plan. The Division reserves the
right to modify the permit, when appropriate, in order to
resolve conflicts between the permit requirements and the
requirements of other locos, rules and regulations -
administered by the Secretary of the Interior.
Mining plan approval is not required for Federal lease C-088199,
since no coal mining within this lease is proposed by the permit
applicant.
If you have any questions, please call Roger Baker at 672-5600.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Ranvir Singh, Chief ~°"'""r
Federal Lands Branch
