ENT OF Ty OF SURFgCF <br /> 04,40 <br /> Q � United States Department of the InteriormOFFICE OF SURFACE MINING t aRECLAMATION AND ENFORCEMENT <br /> AND <br /> Western <br /> ENFe <br /> Western Region Office <br /> 1999 Broadway,Suite 3320 <br /> Denver,CO 80202-3050 <br /> August 27, 2016 RECEIVED <br /> SEP 0 7 2018 <br /> Robin Reilley <br /> Colorado Dep. of Reclamation Mining and Safety Division of Reclamation, <br /> 1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 Mining&Safety <br /> Denver, CO 80203 <br /> Dear Ms. Reilley, <br /> Thank you for meeting with OSMRE on July 5, 2018, requesting a determination from the Office of <br /> Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSMRE) as to whether or not the Permit Revision <br /> (PR) 09, for the Trapper Mine, requires a mining plan modification approval from the Assistant <br /> Secretary for Land and Minerals Management (ASLM). As described in the meeting, PR-09 <br /> proposes extraction of most of the Federal coal that was approved for extraction by the ASLM in a <br /> Mining Plan Decision Document dated April 29, 2016. <br /> Trapper's PR-09 application proposes coal extraction in the east side of Federal coal lease C-079641; <br /> however, the company, while proposing the "N Pit" in PR-09, will not actually extract the Federal <br /> coal on the west side of Federal coal lease C-07519 within the N Pit during the next five years. <br /> According to the company, the Federal coal in N Pit will eventually be mined, but not for another 7 <br /> to 8 years. The coal in the west side of Federal coal lease C-07519 will likely be mined by submittal <br /> of a technical revision, and is expected to be submitted to the Colorado Division of Reclamation <br /> Mining and Safety in 4 to 5 years. <br /> In summary, PR-09 does not require a separate mining plan modification approval from the ASLM <br /> because the action was included in the April 29, 2016 mining plan modification decision document, <br /> approved by the ASLM, and the timing of the mining does not affect the approval. Additionally, <br /> PR-09 does not meet the criterial of 30 CFR Part 746 to require additional approval from the ASLM. <br /> If you have any further questions, please contact Nicole Caveny at 303-293-5078 or <br /> ncaveny@osmre.gov. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Elizabeth Shaeffer, Manager <br /> Field Operations Branch <br />
