NEW ELK COAL <br />COMPANY <br />November 14, 2014 <br />Division of Reclamation, Mine and Safety <br />1313Sherman Street, Room 215 <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 <br />RE: Lorencito Canyon Mine <br />Annual Reclamation Report <br />Mine — Permit No. C-1996-084 <br />Dear Mr. Simmons, <br />Enclosed is the Annual Reclamation Report for the Lorencito Canyon Mine for 2013. <br />Numerous projects were completed during 2013 without impacting previously <br />undisturbed acreage. No new areas were graded or topsoiled and seeded. For this <br />reason a map of 2013 new disturbance is not included with this submittal. <br />Control of noxious weeds continued throughout the 2013 growing season, <br />predominantly with bi-weekly inspection of reclamation and disturbed areas for the <br />presence of noxious weeds. These weeds included Canadian Thistle and Hounds - <br />tongue with control achieved by hand spraying infested areas with Tordon. <br />Inspection for erosion damage (rills and gullies) to reclaimed areas was included as <br />part of the bi-weekly weed survey of the general mine area. No problem areas <br />were identified. <br />Please contact me at 303-300-8704 or John Terry at 303-300-8885 if there are any <br />questions regarding the 2013 Annual Reclamation Report. <br />Sincerely, <br />Louis Head <br />Secretary <br />12250 State Hwy 12 PHONE (303) 300-8877 Or (303) 300-8879 <br />Weston, Colorado 81091 FAX ((719) 868-0044 <br />
