Please state whether this is correct. If this is incorrect, please state why.
Please state whether Bruce Addington "owns and/or controls", or with the period from
12/23/91 to 12/23/96 "owned and/or controlled", any surface coal mining and/or
reclamation operations in the US (Section 2.03.4(3)(d)) other than those listed above.
21. The applicant's response is inadequate. Section 2.03.4(4)(a) requires that each surface
coal mining operation currently "owned and/or controlled" by Bruce Addington be
identified by operation n~ as well as State permit number. Please revise the
application to include this information.
Section 2.03.4(4)(6) requires a description of Bruce Addington's ownership or control
relationship (including percentage of ownership and location in organizational structure)
to each operation (not company) in which he is a current owner or controller. While
information provided in the application indicates that Addington Mining, Inc., Mining
Technologies, Inc. and Addwest Mining, Inc. were merged into Addington Enterprises,
Inc., and that Bruce Addington resigned from the Boazd of Directors of Addington
Enterprises, Inc., it is unclear what Bruce Addington's current ownership or control
relationship is to the other operations listed in the application. Please revise the
application to include this information.

Section 1 indicates that there may be a link between Bruce Addington and a bond
forfeiture (Century, Inc.). Please describe Bruce Addington's past and/or present
relationship with Century, Inc.
24. The applicant's response is inadequate. The response indicates the legal description for
the permit area is contained in Exhibit 2. Page 11 of Exhibit 2 indicates the permit area
will be 17,861.84 acres. However, page 2 of the "Application Form for a Permit to
Conduct Coal Mining in Colorado" indicates the permit area will be 17,895 acres. Please
address this apparent discrepancy.
25. The applicant's response was provided via an April 3, 1997 letter from Robert A Bassett.
In this letter Mr. Bassett has indicated that language allowing the construction of rail road
spurs is included in "Paragraph l.g" of the Coal Lease Agreement. This section of the
Coal Lease Agreement was not provided in Exhibit 2. Please provide this.
