Simpson <br />State Engineer <br />This office has reviewed the "Proposed Decisions and Findings of Compliance" for the Yoast <br />Mine, Permit No. C-94-082. <br />In particular, the sections Surface Water, Ground Water, Description of the Operation and <br />Reclamation Plans, and Hydrologic Balance were helpful and informative. <br />This office has determined that there are no adverse water resource impacts to be caused <br />by the proposed mine. This determination is based in part on the fact that the Yampa River <br />system's tributaries in this area are not at this time critical with regards to water administration. <br />Anot-critical condition means there has not been a call from senior downstream water rights, and <br />there is appropriable water. <br />There are no objections to the proposed permit. <br />Sincerely <br />~~ <br />~~~~`i ~~ <br />Chuck Roberts <br />Professional Engineer III <br />CGR:jmg <br />cc: Ed Blank, Div. 6 <br />pF.CO~ <br />RECEIVED ~~`~ ~ <br />.a. <br />JUL 171995 •.~,' <br />Roy Romer <br />Division of ivllnerais a vG~i~yy Governor <br />lames 5.
