I incorporate them in this individual objection. <br /> As to the reclamation plan and its deficiencies mentioned in the letter, I would only like to add the following... <br /> The State Land Board seems interested in the expansion of the mine primarily,if not only,for the purported <br /> required reclamation the operator will do before the mine is vacated, in up to 20 years. (And even that is <br /> unclear). I add"not only"as the math for estimated monetary return to the SLB and its beneficiary schools <br /> indicates any expected return cannot in itself justify approval of the application/continued and increased mining <br /> activity.The State therefore just wants someone else to foot the bill for any known and unknown reclamation of <br /> the property. But who knows if that will ever happen, based on the company's poor record of reclamation and <br /> the quality of its plan.The State should take responsibility to investigate the company's record on this and <br /> ensure that the reclamation piece is not just kicked down the road.The other issue mentions NOWHERE is <br /> Safety.A child fell into a mine on this property in the not too distant past. Safety relative to traffic in the area <br /> with trucks accessing both 93 and W.56th should also be addressed. <br /> Permit Number* <br /> Enter valid letter and then numbers,for example M1977999, M1999777UG or C1981201. <br /> M1976007 <br /> Permitting Action Type <br /> Amendment <br /> Select revision type or leave blank if comment pertains to a new permit application or NOI <br /> Permitting Action Sequence <br /> 0 <br /> Permit Type <br /> County* <br /> Jefferson County Colorado <br /> Enter one county only <br /> Site Name <br /> Golden Mine <br />
