To date, <br />MCC has completely mined -out panels E1, E2 and E3, and began longwall mining panel E4 during the 4`h <br />Quarter of 2012. At the end of the 1" Quarter of 2014 MCC had longwall mined approximately 137 feet <br />to the west of cross -cut seven within the Panel E4. <br />There were no ponds within the angle of draw of Panel E4 during the first quarter of 2014. Winter <br />conditions prevented routine inspections of the Forest Service roads and Monument Dam. Inspections <br />will continue when road and weather conditions allow. Mining was not within a mile of Monument Dam. <br />Should you have any questions please feel free to contact me at (970) 929 -2308. <br />Sincerely, <br />Gh.- G't,�✓t.
