This is an update on the status of MT -06 issues. The Division received EFCI's responses to our
midterm review on August 1, 2013.
Please see the list of issues below. The numbers refer to the numbers in our original review
(February 20, 2013). The items in bold type still need to be resolved. I recognize that EFCI is
working on some of these issues, but I want to document that they have not yet been resolved.
1. Resolved.
2. Please provide state well permit information in accordance with Rule 2.03.10. All
monitoring wells are required to be permitted with Colorado Division of Water
Resources; State Engineer's Office. Please provide DWR -SEO permit information
for all monitoring wells approved in the permit.
3. Resolved.
4. Resolved.
5. Resolved.
6. Resolved.
7. Resolved.
8. Resolved.
9. The Division has been notified of several structures that may have been affected by
subsidence; 3 fence corners that have pulled out of the ground and possible damage to
a historic cinder block barn. The Division requires EFCI to verify impacts to these
structures and conduct mitigation efforts in accordance with Rule 4.20.3, and permit
section 4.20.3, if determined that these impacts are a result of EFCI's mining activities.
(EFCI indicated that they are looking into surveying this and other issues with The Corley
Company. No direct response was provided to the Division.)
