Townsend Ave. <br />Montrose, CO 81401 <br /> <br /> <br />Re: Elk Creek Mine (Permit No. C-1981-022) <br /> Bond Release Application No. 7 (SL-7) <br /> <br /> <br />Dear Sir or Madam: <br /> <br />The Division has issued a proposed decision to approve Bond Release Application No. 7 for the <br />Elk Creek Mine. Enclosed is the Division's decision form and written findings. The proposed <br />decision will be published in the Delta County Independent, as soon as possible. The first day <br />following publication of the notice initiates a thirty-day public comment period. If there are no <br />requests for an adjudicatory hearing within the thirty days, the decision will become final. <br /> <br />SL-7 releases 21.24 acres of GVB pads and roads from all reclamation liability. With SL -7 an <br />error made in SL-3, where 0.62 acres were mistakenly given Phase II release, is also corrected. <br />SL-7 does not release any Phase II acreage. As provided by Rule 3.03.2(6), should you object to <br />the Division's proposed decision, you may request an adjudicatory hearing. <br /> <br />If you have questions or are in need of additional information, please contact me. <br />
