<br /> <br />Northwest Regional Office <br />711 Independent Avenue <br />Grand Junction, CO 81505 <br /> <br />Bob D. Broscheid, Director, Colorado Parks and Wildlife • Parks and Wildlife Commission: Robert W. Bray • Chris Castilian, Chair Jeanne Horne, Vice-Chair <br />John Howard Bill Kane • Dale Pizel James Pribyl, Secretary James Vigil Dean Wingfield Michelle Zimmerman Alex Zipp <br /> <br /> <br />August 17, 2016 <br /> <br /> <br />Mr. Jared Ebert <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety (CDRMS) <br />1313 Sherman Streem, Room 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br /> <br />RE: CPW’s comments for the Foidel Creek Mine 6MN Passive Water Treatment System <br />Technical Revision No. 84 (TR-84) <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Ebert: <br /> <br />Thank you for giving Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) the opportunity to provide comments <br />for the proposed Foidel Creek Mine 6MN Passive Water Treatment System. <br /> <br />CPW has reviewed the application, and it is our understanding that, if approved and <br />implemented, Twentymile Coal, LLC will construct 4 passive water treatment ponds below <br />the existing 6MN reservoir. The treatment ponds will be used to treat excess mine water <br />discharge from 6MN reservoir. <br /> <br />Because of existing road, power and other mine infrastructure in the project area, which has <br />in turn affected the overall suitability of this site for wildlife, CPW does not anticipate this <br />individual action will affect the distribution and abundance of wildlife species associated with <br />this project. However, CPW submits the following comments and recommendations: <br /> <br />1. CPW assumes that Twentymile Coal, LLC will follow existing DRMS guidelines regarding <br />hazardous materials discharge levels, and ensure that there are no hazardous or toxic <br />substances allowed to enter Fish Creek. <br /> <br />2. CPW recommends Twentymile Coal, LLC ensure that the treatment ponds do not trap <br />wildlife and prohibit wildlife from exiting each pond. <br /> <br />3. CPW recommends Twentymile Coal, LLC preclude use by livestock in all wetland areas <br />that are created as a result of this project. <br /> <br />CPW appreciates the opportunity to provide comments for the Foidel Creek Mine 6MN Passive <br />Water Treatment System. For additional information or to request clarification on CPW’s <br />comments, please contact Brett Smithers, Land Use Specialist, at 970-878-6069.
