<br />When a sire has been reclaimed in accordance with the Colorado Division of Minerals and Geofogy (CDMG) requirements

<br />stormwater permitting requirements under this permit. The requirements for termtnation are described in Part IB.Z,h of
<br />the permit.
<br />Continued coverage may be required after reclamation or remediation is complete if the Division has shown or has reason
<br />to suspect that the stormwater discharge contributes to a violation of a water quality standard
<br />4. Economic Reasonableness Evaluation: Section 25-8-503(8) of the revised (June 1985) Colorado Water puali Control Act
