Sec. 14.                              SPECIAL STIPULATIONS — Lessee will be subject to the following special stipulations in addition to the standard lease terms and conditions. Further environmental analysis will be required upon receipt of a development proposal.

(a)                                 Operations will not be approved which, in the opinion of the authorized officer, would unreasonably interfere with the orderly development and/or production of a valid existing mineral lease issued prior to this lease for the same lands. This stipulation may be modified by mutual consent of the lessor and lessee to reflect any resolutions that may result from the Joint Industry Committee (Wyoming Mining Association, the Petroleum Association of Wyoming, the trona mineral owners and the oil/gas mineral owners) in its pursuit of a technical solution for the coincidental development of trona and oil and gas within the Green River Basin.

(b)                                 The lessee shall be required to pay the value of the royalty due on salable sodium products which would have been produced from any trona left unmined, without approval of the authorized officer, which should have been recovered under the approved mine plan and which is otherwise lost or left economically inaccessible by mechanical mining techniques.

(c)                                  (1)                                 The authorized officer will reject an application for renewal of this lease if, at the end of the lease’s current term, sodium is not being produced in paying quantities from:

(i)                                     This lease; or

(ii)                                  The contiguous mining block in which this lease is included.

(2)                                 For the purposes of this provision:

(i)                                     The “contiguous mining block” is an area approved by the authorized officer, which includes lands covered by this lease and which may include lands covered by other Federal and/or non-federal sodium leases, each of which must be accessible using standard mining practices from at least one adjacent lease within such area; and

(ii)                                  “Sodium is not being produced in paying quantities” when the gross value of sodium compounds and other related products produced from this lease or the contiguous mining block at the point of shipment to market does not yield a return in excess of all direct and indirect operating costs allocable to their production.

(d)                                 The Federal Government is responsible for compliance with the purposes and policy of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, hereafter referred to as the Act. Parcels attached to this lease were cleared for Threatened and Endangered Species and their Critical habitat prior to issuance. Subsequent surface disturbance activities, however, require that the Federal Government again evaluate the proposed action for its effect on listed Threatened and Endangered plant and animal species. To facilitate a timely evaluation of these resources as they apply to the Act, it may be necessary for the lessee to fund the expense of such items as aircraft time or snowmobile rental, or contract with private consultants in order to comply with Bureau Policy and provisions of the Act. If formal consultation with the US Fish and Wildlife Service is deemed necessary, the lessee may be required to provide additional mitigation as specified by the Service in their Biological Opinion.

5

(e)                                  The lease holder shall comply with the Recovery Implementation Program for the Endangered Fish Species in the Upper Colorado River Basin (RIP) as executed by cooperative agreement January 22, 1988 and revised March 7, 1994.

(f)                                   No above ground facilities (power lines, storage tanks, fences, etc.) will be permitted on or within a 1/4 mile radius of active sage grouse strutting grounds. Linear disturbances such as low-traffic roads, pipelines, core drilling, etc., could be granted exceptions. Seasonal restrictions will be applied within an additional 1.75 mile radius from leks to protect sage grouse nesting habitat. Exceptions to seasonal restrictions may be granted.

(g)                                  Nesting birds-of prey (raptors) will be protected through a time limitation stipulation from February 15 through July 15 by limiting surface disturbing activities within 1/2 to 1 mile radius of active nest sites. Exceptions may be granted for above ground facilities and construction on a case-by-case basis. Active and historic raptor nesting habitat shall be protected and managed for continued raptor nesting. Permanent and high profile structures such as buildings, roads, storage tanks, overhead powerlines, etc., will not be allowed within 825 feet (0.25 km) of active raptor nests, with the exception of active eagle nests for which the distance will be 1,970 feet (0.60 km). The buffer distance may vary depending upon the species involved, prey availability, natural topographic barriers, and line-or-sight distances. Linear disturbances such as pipelines, etc., could be granted exceptions.

(h)                                 Construction activities of short-term duration (i.e., six months or less) shall be subject to season-of-use restrictions to protect big game crucial winter habitat. No surface occupancy for such short-term duration construction activities shall be allowed from November 15 to April 30 unless approved by the Authorized Officer.

(i)                                     No surface occupancy within certain lambing and high-value livestock grazing areas unless authorized by the AD. In cases where loss of such habitat is unavoidable, off-site enhancement projects may be required by the AD.

(j)                                    Surface uses such as processing plants and tailings ponds which result in long-term loss of wildlife habitat may require the enhancement of habitat and habitat manipulation off- site (but within the lease boundary) as determined by the BLM AO. Types of improvements will include, but are not limited to, seeding, prescribed burning, guzzler/water development, plantings, and fencing.

(k)                                 Bureau Policy requires that special status plants (proposed threatened or endangered, state sensitive and Category 1 Candidates) and Species At Risk (former Category 2 Candidates), be provided a level of protection to prevent their status from becoming listed as Threatened or Endangered. Prior to authorizing proposed surface disturbance activities, the BLM shall assure that all Special Status Plants or their plant communities are not jeopardized from the proposed action. In order to expedite approval of the construction activity it may be necessary for the lessee to contract with a qualified botanist to conduct a plant survey.

6

(l)                                     All areas that pose hazards to livestock and wildlife species will be fenced. Such areas include plant sites, tailings ponds, containment ponds, primary and secondary sewage lagoons, etc. Fencing standards will be approved by the AO.

(m)                             Tailings ponds and associated facilities will comply with the Migratory Bird Act.

(n)                                 No surface occupancy within 1/4 mile, or visual horizon, of either side of significant portions of historic trails and associated sites for the purpose of protecting these historical values (actual distance varies with topography) unless authorized by the AO.

(o)                                 Prior to undertaking any surface-disturbing activities on the lands covered by a lease or permit, the lessee or permittee, unless notified to the contrary by the AO, shall:

(1)                                 Contact the appropriate BLM office or the appropriate surface management agency where the surface of the lands are administered by such agency, through the BLM, to determine if a location-specific cultural resource survey/inventory is required.

(2)                                 If an inventory is required the lessee or permittee shall fund and engage the services of a qualified cultural resource specialist acceptable to the federal surface management agency to conduct an intensive inventory for evidence of cultural resource values. A report of such survey shall be approved by the AD of the surface management agency and the BLM.

(3)                                 Fund and implement mitigation measures required by the surface management agency to preserve or avoid destruction of cultural resource values. Mitigation may include relocation of proposed facilities, testing, and salvage or other protective measures. Where impacts cannot be mitigated to the satisfaction of the surface management agency, surface occupancy on areas with significant cultural resource values could be prohibited.

(4)                                 The lessee or permittee shall immediately bring to the attention of the AO of the federal surface management agency or BLM any cultural resource or any other object of scientific interest discovered as a result of surface operations under this lease. No disturbance of such discoveries will be allowed until approved in writing by the Authorized Officer. Failure to report discoveries could lead to civil and/or criminal penalties under Federal laws.

(p)                                 Prior to construction the lessee or permittee shall contact the appropriate BLM office or appropriate surface management agency to determine if a site-specific paleontological resource/survey/inventory is required. If a survey is needed, the lessee or permittee will provide a qualified individual approved by the BLM to conduct the survey. If paleontological resources are discovered in the course of construction or excavation, the activity will cease and the BLM AD notified. The company will provide a qualified individual approved by the BLM to collect and remove the fossils.

(q)                                 Access other than casual use across public lands to the lease area will require authorization through either the issuance of a right-of-way (ROW) or an on-lease authorization.

7

(r)                                    Borrow areas or gravel pits on public land will require a permit from the managing agency (BLM or BOR).

(s)                                   No surface occupancy within one-half mile of either side of perennial streams and rivers for the purpose of protecting water quality. Exceptions may be authorized by the AO.

(t)                                    Any plant, mill, tailings pond, or sewage lagoon will be located at least one mile from existing perennial waters, unless otherwise authorized by the AG.

(u)                                 The operator shall avoid unnecessary and undue degradation of soils, vegetation, air, & water.  Examples of this include: avoiding operations when the ground is excessively wet or muddy; constructing waterbars on linear rights-of-way in such a way as to prevent erosion; clearing vegetation only as it is necessary for safe operations and proper construction; avoiding construction on frozen soils; consolidating roads/powerlines/pipelines as practical so as to minimize surface disturbance; protecting and sealing underground waterflows & aquifers; reseeding disturbed areas that are not currently in use, and using only native vegetative species for reseeding/reclamation; preventing leakage of tailings/evaporation ponds; complying with State, Federal and local laws concerning hazardous materials, air & water pollution, and garbage & waste disposal.  Additional measures may be determined by the Authorized Officer, as appropriate, after consultation with the operator.
