Hickenlooper, Governor | Mike King, Executive Director | Virginia Brannon, Director <br />May 26, 2016 <br />Sean Mello <br />Silt Sand & Gravel, LLC <br />P.O. Box 1319 <br />Carbondale, CO 81623 <br /> <br />RE: Grand River Park Project, Permit No. M-2006-046, Estimated Reclamation Cost Update <br />Dear Mr. Mello: <br /> <br />The Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety (Division) received your letter dated May <br />25, 2016. This letter was in response to the Estimated Reclamation Cost Update letter that the <br />Division sent on March 31, 2016. Previous bond estimates were calculated based on reclaiming the <br />entire site. That included 53 acres requiring topsoil and seeding. Your response indicated that to <br />date only 57 acres have been affected, the majority of which will become lakes. Additionally not all <br />mining phase have been affected and therefore the current bond in place should be more than <br />enough to cover the actually liability. Based on your response it appears that you would like the <br />Division to incrementally asses surety increases based on the commencement of each mining phase. <br />In order for the Division to make these changes please submit this request in the form of a technical <br />revision with the $216 revision fee. Please make a commitment to notify the Division in the annual <br />report of any progress made in new mining phases. The self-report will include total acreage of the <br />phase, acres to be topsoiled and seeded, and volume of phase pond to be pumped down for dirt work. <br />This additional information will aid the Division in accurately updating the bond by phases. Through <br />this reporting surety will be incrementally assessed based on mining progress as needed. <br />If you require additional information, or have questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me. <br />Amy Yeldell at the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety, 1313 Sherman St., Room 215, <br />Denver, CO 80203.
