May 10, 2016 <br /> Mr. Eric Scott <br /> Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety <br /> Colorado Department of Natural Resources <br /> 1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 <br /> Denver,CO 80203 <br /> RE: Mining permit M-1998-043—Technical Revision for Final Reclaimed Site Conditions <br /> Dear Mr. Scott: <br /> Thank you for your continued efforts in working with us to reach closeout on this permit. Peter Hays <br /> from your office inspected the CR 20.5 site on July 31,2012 and his findings were documented in the <br /> associated inspection report. Also,our engineer,Carrie Herbolsheimer with Applegate Group has been <br /> in contact with you about the status of this permit and the required steps to achieve permit close out. <br /> It is our understanding that the outstanding items remaining for this site are vegetation establishment, <br /> weed control,and documentation that the stockpiles and buildings onsite will remain on the property as <br /> part of the reclaimed site. <br /> The remaining stockpiles are currently as follows: two stockpiles with approximately 5000 ton of top <br /> soil,one stock pile of sand with approximately 75 ton,one stock pile of 1-1/2 Rock with approximately <br /> 100 ton,one stock pile of#4 minus rock with approximately 100 ton. This material has been reserved <br /> for our sole use and will not be removed from the site or sold. <br /> In addition, Mr. Hays' inspection report indicates that there are several buildings onsite which are not <br /> part of the approved reclamation plan.These buildings belong to the property to the west of the <br /> permitted area. These buildings are used by the owner and will remain in place after the mining permit <br /> has been closed out. <br /> At this time,we feel that the vegetation onsite has been fully established and weeds are under control. <br /> We respectfully request a final site inspection with you to confirm that the site meets final reclamation <br /> requirements. <br /> Also enclosed is the Request for technical revision (TR)cover sheet along with the fee of$216. In order <br /> to request a reduction in our bond amount. If possible, Eric,we would appreciate your assistance in <br /> getting this bond reduced. <br /> Please contact me at your earliest convenience to schedule a meeting.Thank you very much for your <br /> help with this matter. <br /> Regards, <br /> ill rgaret Kobobel <br /> 1 <br />
