.N <br />Land Management's Uncompahgre Field Manager, we believe that activities proposed <br />in this Application would require an oil and gas lease. <br />Please see the attached Comment Letter submitted by the Western Environmental Law <br />Center (WELC) and other conservation groups regarding the Uncompahgre Field <br />Office's Draft Resource Management Plan and Environmental Impact Statement, which <br />this comment letter incorporates by reference, for site-specific concerns and broader <br />concerns about the cumulative impacts of coalbed methane extraction. Specifically, see <br />sections (II)(D)(3) and (III)(F)(4). <br />For the reasons described above, we request that the Division of Reclamation, Mining <br />and Safety hold a public hearing to provide accurate information as to the specific <br />activity to be undertaken at the Bowie #2 Mine by BRL, Oxbow, and J. E. Stover & <br />Associates, Inc. We also request that the public comment period be extended to allow <br />the public more opportunity to submit meaningful comments. <br />Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. <br />Sincerely, "d <br />A 'Ir 6/17 <br />Andrew Forkes-Gudmundson <br />Associate Program Director <br />Citizens for a Healthy Community <br />PO Box 1283 <br />Paonia, CO 81428 <br />Citizens for a Healthy Community <br />tri Grand Avenue, Suite Ito, Paonia, CO 8r428 <br />Mailing Address.
