DRMS 10 November 2022 <br /> DRMS is in receipt of correspondence between Trapper Mine and History Colorado regarding <br /> the above question. Trapper Mine corresponded with History Colorado Staff on 26 October <br /> 2022. History Colorado on 3 November 2022 provided a concurrence letter regarding the <br /> cultural surveys previously undertaken in this portion of the permit, finding no adverse effect. <br /> This rule is adequately addressed. <br /> Rule 2.05.6(4) Mitigation of Impacts, Public Parks and Historic Places <br /> 2. Please address the concerns related to the 17 October 2022 letter from History Colorado <br /> as it relates to listed archeological sites and provide information as to Trapper Mine <br /> Inc's,plan to protect any sites listed or eligible for listing as determined by SHPO. <br /> DRMS 10 November 2022 <br /> This rule is adequately addressed by the above mentioned History Colorado concurrence <br /> letter. <br /> Rule 3.02.2 Performance Bond <br /> DRMS understands that no additional disturbance was requested for TR130 in the original <br /> application. DRMS also notes that in PR10 206.7 acres were approved for disturbance and that <br /> pre TR132 Trapper has utilized 171.1 acres of the 206.7 requested. Proposing TR132 would <br /> utilize 204.92 acres of the PR10 request, leaving 1.78 acres of the PR10 request. <br /> Also, reclaimed and not yet bond released for TR130 totaled 90.4 acres. DRMS will carry this <br /> acreage over to the TR132 cost estimate. <br /> DRMS's CIRCES cost estimate indicated the amount required for reclamation associated with <br /> TR132 to be $354,604.00, not including the costs associated with acres reclaimed and not yet <br /> bond released (90.4 acres RNYBR). DRMS calculated the costs associated with RNYBR acres <br /> to be $67,872.25. The total cost for reclamation associated with TR132 is $422,476.25. DRMS <br /> notes that as of 30 October 2022 Trapper Mine Inc's bond amount was increased to <br /> $45,100,000.00. DRMS finds that the current surety is sufficient to cover the reclamation costs <br /> associated with the TR132 permitting action. <br /> Rule 4.03 Roads <br /> This rule is adequately addressed. <br /> DRMS found that the Mining and Regrade maps, Topsoil Stripping maps and Post Mining <br /> Topography maps reflect the permitted mine plan and verified associated conditions on the ground. <br /> DRMS finds these topics adequately addressed. <br /> DRMS has no further adequacy questions. Please find the final CIRCES reclamation cost estimate <br /> enclosed. <br />
