This decision will be published in the Canon <br />City Daily Record, as soon as possible. Publication of the notice initiates a thirty (30) day public <br />comment period. If, within thirty days, there are no requests for an adjudicatory hearing, the <br />decision will become final. <br />EFCI asked for Phase II and III release of 102 acres; 0.3 acre of this area was removed because <br />of the Magpie seep, which is still under discussion. EFCI asked for release of $351,376; based <br />on the cost estimate for remaining tasks, the Division proposes release of $340,922. There was <br />an additional 9.6 acres of permanent features that were not accounted for in the EFCI acreage <br />numbers in the SL -03 application. This has been included in the Phase I disturbed acres. <br />As an interested party, you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing as outlined under Rule <br />3.03.2(6) of the Rules and Regulations. The request for an adjudicatory hearing must be written <br />and state with specificity the reasons why the hearing is requested. The request must be received <br />within thirty days of the first publication of the proposed decision in the Canon City Daily <br />Record. <br />pF COl0 <br />1313 Sherman Street, Room 215, Denver, CO 80203 P 303.866.3567 F 303.832.8106 http://mining_state.co.us I yi j <br />John W.
