~. <br />Colorado Division of Minerals and Geology <br />Page 2 <br />February 25, 1998 <br /> <br />that, "Prehistoric and Hirtoric Resources shall not be marred, disturbed, removed or <br />ahered on state land as provided by law" just below the commissions signatures. <br />Additionally. Ms. Collins' remarks stating that there are no significant aifhiral resources in <br />the proposed mining area is clearly a false and mis-leading rtatement. No one has ever <br />conducted a professional Class III Pedestrian archeological survey in the effected area, so, I <br />find it very hard to believe that these statements are true. h16C was given 5 working days <br />to conduct field work, to perform literature research, to write an <br />archeological/environmental reconnaissance report, and to deliver our results to this <br />commission. We stand by our report on this subject and any negative comments by your <br />administrative staff or Susan Collins to the validity of its contents is pure fiction. <br />The very suggestion that the fate of cuhural resources on state controlled lands <br />should be the responsibility of development interests is a ludicrous comment in itself, but <br />is particularly navie considering the slanderous attacks leveled at our staff's professional <br />qualifications during this public meeting. Is your position on this matter so weak that your <br />organization has to resort to under-handed dirty tricks to gain favorable decisions or is <br />your administrative staff so inept that it is unnecessarily e~osing the State of Colorado to <br />criminal, and or, civil legal action. <br />Again, please provide our company with access to any transcript type material your <br />office has concerning the comments expressed at this public meeting and the other <br />materials we requested as soon as possible. <br />Sincerely, <br />Dr. Charles Cambridge/President/Principal Investigator <br />cc: Susan Collins <br />Ooug & Kelly Park, et al. <br />^ <br />
