Page 2 of 2 <br />for the Williams Fork Mines. Once DPW reviews and responds to the Williams Fork Mines <br />updated TES listing, the Division will send future adequacy questions as needed. <br />Division: The Division has received comments back from the Colorado Parks and Wildlife <br />in regards to MCM's proposed TES listing. Colorado Parks and Wildlife finds that the list of <br />species for Moffat County is accurate except for one Candidate Species, the Greater Sage - <br />grouse. Please add the Greater Sage - grouse to the TES listing. <br />Rule 3.02.2 — Determination of Bond Amount <br />Division: As per Rule 3.02.2(4), the amount of the performance bond required shall be <br />adjusted for good cause as affected land acreages are increased or decreased or when the <br />cost of future reclamation changes including the cost of abating any violation for which a <br />notice of violation has been issued. <br />The bond amount for the Williams Fork Mines'Permit Renewal #6 will be addressed within <br />a future adequacy letter. <br />MCM.- MCM will review the Division's updated bond reclamation cost estimate on receipt <br />and provide any appropriated comments. <br />1. Division: The Division has performed a cost estimate for Renewal #6. The cost estimate for <br />Renewal #6 increases the liability for the Williams Fork Mines to $3,991,706.13 (see <br />attached cost estimate) solely due to cost increases. The Division's cost estimate is <br />consistent with previous cost estimates for the permit approved by both the Division and <br />MCM. The Division respectfully requests a response from MCM with any questions <br />regarding the cost estimate, an estimate from MCM or an acceptance of the Division's <br />estimate. If MCM wishes to use the Division's cost estimate for Renewal #6, please submit <br />a copy of the estimate to the Division from MCM. <br />This concludes the Division's adequacy review for the Williams Fork Mines' Renewal 46. If you <br />have any questions, feel free to contact me at any time. <br />Sincerely, <br />Zach Trujillo <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Zach.Trujillogstate.co.us <br />(303) 866 -3567 x.8164 <br />C -MR -02 <br />
