Martin <br />RE: Permit No. C-1981-040, Sunbelt Mining Inc. Executive Director <br />Reclamation of the Peacock Coal Mine <br />To Whom It May Concern: <br />This letter is in regard to the Peacock Coal Mine, former Permit No. C-1981-040 located in La Plata County, <br />Colorado. The mining permit was revoked and the bond money was forfeited in 1987. Over the years, the State <br />has used the forfeited funds to reclaim the site and conducted routine maintenance of the inactive coal mine. <br />The Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety plans to use the remainder of the forfeited funds for further <br />maintenance of the site in the Spring/Summer of 2010. Maintenance work includes removing the remaining <br />mining debris and trash, installing small rock check dams on the old access road and revegetation of barren areas. <br />If you have any questions, please contact Kirstin Brown at 970-903-7889 or myself at 303-866-3567 *8115. <br />Sincerely, <br />Erica S.
