<br /> <br /> <br /> 4 <br /> Proposed Decision <br /> <br /> <br />The Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety (Division) proposes to approve the <br />application for permit renewal 1 (RN-1). <br /> <br />The application was submitted by Elk Ridge Mining and Reclamation, LLC (ERMR) for the mine. <br />This decision is based on a finding that the operations will comply with all requirements of the <br />Colorado State Program as found in the Colorado Surface Coal Mining Reclamation Act, Section <br />34-33-101 et seq., C.R.S., and the Regulations promulgated pursuant to the Act. If no request for <br />a formal hearing is made within thirty (30) days of the first publication of the issuance of this <br />proposed decision, then this decision becomes final. Upon submittal of acceptable surety by the <br />applicant, the permit will be issued. The permit application, all supporting documentation and any <br />stipulations or conditions will become a binding part of the permit. <br /> <br />The operator’s name for the New Horizon North Mine (NHN) changed from Western Fuels- <br />Colorado (WFC) to Elk Ridge Mining and Reclamation, LLC (ERMR) during the last permit term. <br />References to WFC will be used in this findings document for historical purposes.
