Legal, Financial, Compliance, and Related Information <br />The statements below are intended to address the requirements of Section 2.03 of the regulations of <br />the Office of Mined Land Reclamation Board for Coal Mining for the New Horizon Mine. New <br />Horizon 1 & 2 Mine is the old Peabody Coal Company Nucla & Nucla East Mine which operated <br />under the same permit. This old Peabody Nucla mine area (the New Horizon 1 mine area) is <br />undergoing final reclamation. Bond was released on 215.5 acres of the New Horizon 1 mine <br />area in the Spring of 2002. The New Horizon Mine assumed that bonding responsibility on the <br />remaining 98.62 acres of NH 1 land until such time as bond is released. <br />This application is intended to apply only to the New Horizon 2 (formerly Nucla East) mine area. <br />Descriptions of environmental baseline data, mining and reclamation plans contained in this <br />application are limited to the New Horizon 2 mine area. The New Horizon 1 area is not addressed <br />in this application. It is undergoing reclamation and there will be no further disturbances at New <br />Horizon 1. There will be minor activity at the New Horizon 1 area to meet bond release <br />requirements (general caretaking activities), but no mining or other disturbances. No New Horizon <br />2 activity will affect New Horizon 1. Reclamation commitments for the New Horizon 1 area are <br />contained in a separate document entitled Reclamation Plan. <br />2.03.4(2)(a) Identification of Permit Applicant <br />Elk Ridge Mining and Reclamation, LLC <br />P.O.
