Regarding the water monitor well sites left operational after Consol's recla- mation activities were completed during October 1992, I have been in contact with the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Division (CMLRD) and the Office of the State Engineer to determine the appropriate procedures to be followed to implement well permit transfer. The Subject sites include a ground water monitor well 84-W (84-D1-02) complet- ed in bedrock and located in Section 15, T3N, R93W, within the Danforth I Federal coal lease. Also included are alluvial water monitor wells A-3 and A-6, located in Sections 11 and 28, respectively, of T3N, R93W. Through my discussions with CMLRD's Erica Crosby, I was informed that the Notice of Intent held by Consol, which includes exploration site 84-W, would not require transfer to Colowyo. Therefore, the CMLRD document entitled "Request for Transfer of Notice of Intent to Conduct Coal Exploration and Succession of Exploration Operators" will not require execution by Colowyo and Consol, as was previously advised. Instead, CMLRD has indicated that site 84-W will be included in Colowyo's reclamation bond recuired for permit modifications that are currently in progress. Since sites A-3 and A-6 were drilled only to the base of valley-fill alluviam and did not penetrate coal bearing strata, they were not included in any Notice of Intent filed with CMLRD and were therefore not bonded. It was indicated by CMLRD that sites A-3 and A-6 will also be included in the reclamation bond requested for the aforementioned permit modifications. It will be necessary however, for Colowyo to execute the attached forms from the Office of the State Engineer entitled "Change of Ownership/Address". This will allow the State Engineer to update the well permit file numbers for wells 84-1.1, A-3 and A-6 to reflect the nevi well owner, Colowyo. Upon execution, please return the forms to my attention, a~hereh, ? .,911 f•. le them with the State Engineer aionD with the neces<_ar~i `ee.
