Carla Lenkey <br />WQCD-PE-B2 <br />4300 Cherry Creek Drive South <br />Denver, CO 80222-1530 <br />RE: Sediment Spill at Discharge Point 005, Permit No. CO-0000221 <br />Dear Ms. Lenkey, <br />Per our conversation today, this letter serves to notify your <br />Division that a sediment spill occurred at Point 005 during the <br />evening of August 1. At that time, this sediment pond was being <br />dredged out with a backhoe that was loading the sediment into <br />scrapers. During this process, about one cubic yard of sediment <br />spilled from the loading area and into the discharge channel. The <br />pond was not discharging at the time of the spill. I notified our <br />operations people when I found out about this today, informing them <br />to avoid any more of this type of spillage, and requesting that the <br />sediment be removed from the drainage channel. I was told that the <br />clean up will begin today. <br />Sincerely, <br />W "~'~`~ <br />Dennis Jon s <br />Hydrologist I <br />cc: Mike Boulay (CDMG) <br />Seneca Coal Company P.O.
