• Basin either owus or controls though an exclusive-use Icasc, the surface which was <br />affected by the Golden F,agle mining operation. Basin will continue to maintain control <br />over these lands consistent with the post mining land use through final bond release. <br />Access to revegetated areas will be controlled to ensure that the post-mining land use is <br />achieved as soon as possible. Upon completion of liual reclamation and full bond <br />release, the land will return to its approved post-mining land use and utilized by the <br />landowners, lessees or renters. The majority of the disturbed areas is owned by the State <br />of Colorado, managed by the Division of Wildlife, and will be used as a Slate Wildlife <br />Area. <br />[n those areas with apost-mining industrial use classification, satisfactory cover, plant <br />life or gravel base, or other erosion control methods were employed to control erosion <br />during and after mining ceased. Basin contiiiucd to monitor these sites af~or mice closure <br />until reclamation bonding was established by the industrial user with the Oil and Gas <br />Conservation Commission and bond release for these sites was granted by the Division of <br />Minerals and Geology. Upon completion of natural gas production and related activities, <br />the permittee of the natural gas estate will reclaim these industrial use areas in accordance <br />with the requirements of the Oil and Gas Conservation Commission. <br />The return of the lands' condition to the post-mining land uses is consistent with the <br />surface owner's consent. This approach to reclamatior of the dishirbed areas and <br />affected areas and its return to the pre-mining laud uses, is consistent, and <br />• <br />TR-55 2.05-30 (Repaginaled2/10/04) <br />
