<br />PUBLIC NOTICE
<br />Bowie Resources, LLC, P.O. Box
<br />483, Paonia, CO, 81428, has sub-
<br />mitted a complete application for
<br />a technical revision to the Division
<br />of Reclamation, Mining & Safety
<br />for its approved Bowie No. 2 Mine,
<br />mining permit no. C- 1996-083. Pro -
<br />posed technical revision W. 83 wilt
<br />approve an additional expansion
<br />of a material storage area located
<br />east of the B -Seam portals. Tsch-
<br />n'ical revision no. 79 initially ap-
<br />proved the material storm area
<br />expansion and the excavation of
<br />1000 cubic yards from the excess
<br />material stockpile. An additional
<br />6,000 cubic yards will need to be
<br />excavated from the excess material
<br />stockpile in order to further expand
<br />the material storage area. Bowie
<br />proposes to utilize all of the mate-
<br />rial excavated from the excess ma-
<br />terial stockpile to supplement the
<br />volume of cover material available
<br />for gob pile numbers 2 and 4.
<br />Most of the mine facilities are lo-
<br />cated north of Bowie Road near
<br />the town of Bowie, CO. A pump
<br />station, three sediment ponds, a
<br />coal mine waste pile and unit train
<br />loadout are located south of Bowie
<br />Road. The Fire Mountain Canal is
<br />located south of the mine facilities
<br />and north of the unit train loadout.
<br />The North Fork of the Gunnison
<br />River is located south of the mine
<br />permit boundary. The proposed
<br />mine permit area is located on the
<br />U.S. Geological Survey 7.5 minute
<br />Bowie Quadrangle map within the
<br />following sections.
