The Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety has begun the review process for the above referenced
application. Please find enclosed a copy of the Pre-operational inspection conducted on May 31 s`, 2007.
A review of the application and a visit to the site indicate a few issues that need to be clarified or
corrected. Please address the following:
1) Please supply documentation and clarification on the agreement to extend the water line for the
stock tank to the north during final reclamation.
2) As indicated in our discussions, please confirm the commitment to clearly mark boundaries and
in particular the small triangular parcel between Phase 1 and 2.
3) Please note the Public Notice was incorrect in stating that comments must be received by June
5`h, 2007. Under the Rules, a 112c permit has 20 days past the last date of publication. The last
date was May 23'~ so 20 days is the 12`h of June. Since no comments have bean received, staff
will not require republication, however if any comments are received between the 5`h and 12`h
they must be considered timely.
4) Staff is asking all operators with asphalt plants to supply a plan for the periodical clean-up of
reject and over spill asphalt on site. Please submit a plan for the clean-up and disposal of reject
and overspill asphalt for this site.
5) It is noted that there are a few fences that do not have signed damage agreements attached.
Please supply the agreements, an engineering statement that excavation will not harm or disturb
the fences or a commitment to stay at least 200 feet away until such agreements or statements are
supplied.
6) Under the Reclamation Plan it is noted that "grading will leave the topography very similar to
Pre-mined conditions. Please clarify that under no circumstance will slopes be less than 2:1.
