MANAGEMENT <br />RECEIVED <br />1313 Sherman St., Room 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 MAY 19 2014 <br />Division of Reclamation, <br />Re: Bowie Resources, LLC, Bowie No. 2 Mine Mining & Safety <br />Technical Revision #89, Relocate E. & W. Diversion Ditches <br />Permit C- 1996 -083 <br />Dear Ms. Burgmaier: <br />On behalf of Bowie Resources, LLC, (BRL), enclosed is an application for a technical <br />revision to relocate the East and West Diversion ditches higher on the slope above gob <br />pile #2. This work was originally included in the Technical Revision No. 87 but has <br />been removed in order to achieve a more rapid approval. <br />The East and West Diversion ditches will be relocated higher up on the hillside which <br />will allow for more gob storage. An application for an increase in the height of gob pile <br />#2 will be submitted under a separate technical revision application, along with a <br />SedCad analysis, and applicable maps. It is anticipated that the future technical <br />revision application will include text updates in Volume IX, Appendix B, and Figures 1 -3. <br />Also included will be Volume II, Maps 15 -1 & 3, 18, 20, 21 -1 & 3 and 32. <br />Included with this application will be a SedCad analysis for East and West Diversion <br />ditches as well as Map 15 -3. Both the SedCad analysis and Map 15 -3 will be for review <br />purposes only and will be included in the forthcoming technical revision application for <br />inclusion in the permit document. <br />The relocation of the diversion ditches will create 5.0 acres of new disturbance. It is <br />anticipated due to the rocky and steep slopes that there will be no topsoil available for <br />salvage, however, if topsoil is available, it will be salvaged and then put into stockpile. <br />Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. <br />
