The new Financial Warranty calculated by the Division for the <br />remaining reclamation liability at the site is $9,700. The worksheets supporting this calculation are attached. This is a <br />reduction of $670,966 from the existing financial warranty amount of $680,666. This decision reduces the amount of the <br />financial warranty, but does not approve any release of reclamation responsibility for the tasks associated with this <br />request. <br />Please provide a rider to the current Financial Warranty, or submit a new Financial Warranty reflecting this reduction. If <br />you wish to submit a different type of Financial Warranty, please contact our office for the applicable form. <br />As agreed during our on-site meeting 4 October 2010, there are three reclamation tasks remaining before the site will be <br />in a condition for full release: 1) reshaping the lakeshore as needed to attain 3:1 slopes, 2) weed abatement, and 3) <br />revegetation of the areas that did not successfully re-establish from the initial seeding effort. <br />After these tasks have been completed and the reclamation meets the Division's performance standards, then you may <br />submit a request for full release of the performance and financial warranties. <br />If you have any questions, please contact me at (303) 866-3567, x8108. <br />Sincerely, <br />David Bird <br />Reclamation Specialist <br />cc: Tony Waldron, DRMS <br />Mary Rodriquez, DRMS <br />Office of Office of <br />Mined Land Reclamation <br />Denver • Grand Junction • Durango Active and Inactive Mines <br />
