Re: Notification of Intent to Seek Bond Release, Surety Release No. SL -04
Energy Fuels Coal, Inc. - Southfield Mine
Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining & Safety Permit No. C-1981-014
Dear Paula Coulter:
Energy Fuels Coal, Inc. (EFCI) is the owner and operator of the Southfield Mine. The Southfield Mine
(Mine Site) area is located approximately 8 miles south of Florence, Colorado on County Road 92.
EFCI ceased active mining operations in the underground mine in December 2000. Reclamation of
mine -related surface disturbance was initiated in August 2001 and substantially completed in August
of 2003. The State of Colorado currently holds a cash reclamation bond as surety for final reclamation
of all mining and related disturbance areas associated with EFCI's mining operations.
Consistent with applicable regulatory provisions, EFCI intends to file an application with the Colorado
Division of Reclamation, Mining & Safety (DRMS) requesting partial release of the remaining bond
amount associated with the required reclamation work at the Mine Site that has been completed to
date. The application will also request release of liability of specific lands and structures within the
Mine Site permit boundary.
As an interested or potentially affected adjoining property owner, surface owner, or governmental
entity, you have the opportunity to access the proposed bond release areas and/or provide comments
for the DRMS's consideration in making a determination on EFCI's bond release request. If you have
questions regarding EFCI's intended bond release request or -wish to access the subject areas you may
contact EFCI directly at Energy Fuels Coal, Inc., 115 East Main Street - Suite 10, P.O. Box 459,
Florence, Colorado 81226, [phone].
A public notice regarding this request is being published in the Canon City Daily Record. Following
the last date of publication DRMS will schedule and then conduct a bond release inspection. If you
wish to file comments or objections, your written comments must be received by the DRMS within 30
days of the last date of newspaper publication or 30 days of the date of this inspection, whichever is
later, in order to be considered.
Sincerely,
Allen S. Weaver
Mine Manager - Energy Fuels Coal, Inc.
