<br /> <br />Public Notice <br /> <br /> <br />The Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety, in accordance with Title 34, Article 33, of the Colorado <br />Revised Statutes, hereby issues notice that on June 7, 2016, a minor revision application (MR-298) to the <br />Foidel Creek Mine, Permit No. C-1982-056, operated by Twentymile Coal, LLC, 29515 Routt County <br />Road No. 27, Oak Creek, CO 80467 was considered complete for the purposes of filing. Twentymile <br />Coal, LLC. has submitted a minor revision to the permit to reflect the addition of a flocculant delivery <br />system and use of a flocculant at the Fish Creek Borehole and Water Treatment Installation to drop-out <br />coal fines and enhance water quality prior to discharge. The proposed change is limited to an additional <br />option for water treatment, specifically to address reduction of suspended coal fines prior to discharge and <br />does not replace or supersede existing approved treatment methods. This revision does not involve the <br />construction or installation of any additional structures or equipment (with the exception of a metering <br />pump). According to Twentymile Coal, LLC. the flocculant selected (Amerifloc 490) is approved for use <br />in drinking water systems and should have very limited potential for adverse impacts to aquatic life at low <br />dosing rates. The applicant is not proposing additional surface disturbance outside of the area currently <br />approved for disturbance. All reviews and comment periods as provided in the Act and Regulations <br />promulgated thereunder initiate from this date of filing. <br /> <br /> <br /> Posted June 7, 2016 <br /> <br /> C-MR-03
