This decision will be published in the Delta County Independent as soon <br /> as possible. The first day following publication of the notice initiates a thirty (30) day public <br /> comment period. If, within thirty days, there are no requests for an adjudicatory hearing, the <br /> decision will become final. <br /> This bond release application pertains to the ROM Area of the mine site, including the pond. The <br /> SL-07 application included Phase III bond release on 10.72 acres (the entire ROM Area,including <br /> the pond and the entrance road) and a Phase II bond release on 0.51 acres (the pond within the <br /> ROM Area). The Division is not proposing to release 0.34 acres for the entrance road, and the <br /> resulting Phase III acreage is 10.38 acres (10.72 - 0.34). The road area was removed from <br /> consideration for bond release because the reclamation plan for Bowie No. 1 Mine does not clearly <br /> indicate that this shall be a permanent facility. As an interested party, you have the right to an <br /> adjudicatory hearing as outlined under Rule 3.03.2(6) of the Rules and Regulations. The request <br /> for an adjudicatory hearing must be written and state with specificity the reasons why the hearing <br /> is requested. The request must be received within thirty days of the day following the first <br /> publication of the proposed decision in the Delta County Independent. <br /> Copies of the proposed decision and findings are available for review at <br /> https://dnrweblink.state.co.us/drms/search.aspx by searching C 198103 8 in the"Permit No"field. <br /> A user guide is available to help first time users of the imaged document system and can be viewed <br /> OF COCO <br /> 1313 Sherman St. Room 215 Denver, CO 80203 P (303) 866-3567 F(303)832-8106 https://drms.colorado.gov <br /> Jared Polis, Governor I Dan Gibbs, Executive Director I Virginia Brannon, Director I * * <br /> *1876 <br />
