Proposed Decision <br />The Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety proposes to approve the application <br />for renewal of the valid existing permit (Permit Renewal No. 6). <br />The application was submitted by OMLLC for the Elk Creek Mine. This decision is based on a <br />finding that the operations will comply with all requirements of the Colorado State Program as <br />found in the Colorado Surface Coal Mining Reclamation Act, C.R.S. 34 -33 -101 et seq., and the <br />Regulations promulgated pursuant to the Act. If no request for a formal hearing is made within <br />thirty (30) days of the first publication of the issuance of this proposed decision, then this <br />decision becomes final. Upon submittal of acceptable surety by the applicant, the permit will be <br />issued. The permit application, all supporting documentation and any stipulations or conditions <br />will become a binding part of the permit. <br />No coal mining operations may be conducted on any Federal surface or coal until the Secretary <br />of the Interior has approved the proposed mining plan. <br />
