The postmining land use for the site is rangeland habitat. Since <br />the facilities noted above have now been sold to EnCana, American Soda will need to <br />address final reclamation of the site. The operator has the following options; <br />1. Provide documentation that American Soda maintains the legal right of entry to <br />reclaim the facilities as approved in the reclamation plan, <br />2. Transfer the permit from American Soda, LLP to EnCana Oil and Gas (however, partial <br />transfer of permits in not allowed. In this case, EnCana will need to apply for a <br />new DMG permit for the mining facilities), or <br />3. Revise the reclamation plan in the form of a permit amendment to change the <br />postmining land use of the facility area from rangeland habitat to <br />industrial/commercial. Once the plan is approved by the Division, then the operator <br />may request that this portion of the site be released (in the form of a formal <br />release request). <br />I & B Contact Address <br /> ^ CE <br />NAME Ma.
