ENERGY COMPANY <br />P.O. BOX 467 GOLDEN, COLORADO 80402 <br />June 18, 2014#9 <br />Mr. Jared Ebert �� <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Division of Reclamation, Mining & Safety <br />Re: Mid -Term Permit Review No. 6, Permit C- 1981 -028 Ok � <br />Dear Mr. Ebert: <br />This letter is in response to your letter dated April 4, 2014 regarding the Coors Energy Company (CEC) <br />Mid -Term Permit Review No. 6 at our Keenesburg, CO facility, operated under Permit C -1981 -028. <br />In response to your letter, please see specific actions taken to address concerns outlined in Section IV. The <br />corrective measures and supporting documents are described herein: <br />1. The Total Vegetation Cover equation on Page 116B has been modified. The modification is <br />included in Minor Revision (MR) #46. Attached is the MR #46 and revised Page 116B. <br />2. The existing permit has a variance for Contemporaneous Reclamation through March of 2014 on <br />Page 117. A variance extension through March of 2021 is requested, based on current operations <br />and estimated site life. The extension request is included in MR #46 and the modified Page 117 is <br />included. <br />3. Based on new estimates provided by the Division, the bond for the CEC site has increased to <br />$1,971,874.00. This bond modification was processed by the Division. CEC acknowledges this <br />bond increase in MR #46, as well CEC has updated Appendix S with the newly provided estimate <br />sheets. <br />4. CEC is undertaking the process of updating Section 2.03.06 and Appendix A -2. CEC will have to <br />perform some property & mineral ownership research to verify the ownership of each item on both <br />tracts associated with the Keenesburg mine. Based on a preliminary investigation, the ownership <br />listed in the permit looks to be accurate. However, CEC will more closely investigate the <br />ownership and notify the Division of any changes. This investigation is anticipated to take <br />through August 2014 to complete. <br />Please review the attached MR #46 and accompanying documents. Upon approval of the Division, these <br />will be posted in the local newspaper and town/county facilities as required. <br />If you have any questions on this, please contact me at 303 - 927 -3680. <br />Sincerely, <br />Benjamin Moline <br />Manager, Water Resources and Environmental Compliance <br />
