Long <br />D'n~i,ion Director <br />All previously filed objections to the High Mesa Gravel Pit application have been withdrawn. <br />DMG has reviewed the technical revision to the permit application, filed with DMG on September <br />19, 2000, and has found the technical revision and the permit application adequate for approval. <br />Please be advised that a permit will not be issued for the proposed operation until DMG receives <br />and approves an appropriate amount of financial warranty. <br />DMG has incorporated the conditions of the revised permit application into its previous <br />reclamation cost estimation. DMG's revised reclamation cost estimation totals 541,661, and <br />includes reclamation costs for the phased mine plan with contemporaneous reclamation at 13 <br />acres affected area at any given time. Please find attached, 8 pages of summary, work sheets <br />and data sheets utilized by DMG to calculate the cost of reclamation. Please submit $41,661 <br />financial warranty. <br />Please contact me at the DMG Durango Office, 701 Camino del Rio, Room 125, Durango, CO <br />81301, phone (970) 247-5469, if you have any questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />Wallace H.
