BOX 115 <br />MAYBELL, CO. 81640 <br />JULY 27, 1996 <br />COLORADO DIVISION OF MINERALS & GEOLOGY <br />DEPT. OF NATURAL RESOURCES <br />1313 SHERMAN ST. ROOM 215 <br />DENVER, CO. 80203 <br />Mr. Carl Mouht and Mr. Tony Waldron; <br /> <br />~I~ II~~I~~I~~~~~ II~ <br />sss <br />Division of Minerdl5 & l~bnwgv <br />Enclosed please find photographs of our mine showing the <br />areas where we moved topsoil to comply with the corrective <br />actions stated in your minerals program inspection report. <br />The topsoil from the basin embankment was dozed to the west <br />into a pile where we talked about putting it. A ditch was <br />constructed to flow any water past this pile into a new storm <br />water sediment pond that was constructed into the sub topsoil <br />strata with a berm constructed of 3/4" minus fines from mining, <br />mixed with riprap rock. This area was then broadcast seeded with <br />a mixture of crested wheat grass seed like we used on the area <br />already reclaimed. <br />The topsoil that was directly along the highwall on the <br />north side of our pit was dozed back from the wall. We moved the <br />entire windrow of topsoil farther from the highwall eliminating <br />any chance of allowing it to fall into the working area. This <br />windrow was broadcast seeded with the above mentioned seed mix. <br />To make up for the topsoil lost along the highwall area, we <br />will haul in and stockpile on our current reclamation area, 6 <br />belly dump loads of clay material from another pit to help with <br />the reclamation process. This material will be used on the top <br />of that area, <br />I Think this takes care of, and goes beyond, the things that <br />we talked about and were addressed in your Letter. <br />ga~ryl L. ~~le~j <br />Presid t <br />
