JAN-12-95 THU 19:03 <br />November 8, 1994 <br />Page 4 <br /> <br />P. 05 <br />for failure to conduct a subsidence monitoring and <br />subsidence control plan or failure to provide a detailed <br />plan of the proposed or actual underground working of the <br />mine. These findings are totally inappropriate and not <br />based on fact. With regard to the above: <br />a. Please furnish ma with the maps referred to in the <br />January 19, 1994, letter from Daniel Hernandez to <br />Mitchell Rollings; <br />V. lCUI! JllVIYkJ~UII Vl Nu~11{ VV.+Vll lv4 4{L~+fSl Vu u{ Q~ ~ <br />.deposition on December 10, 1993, that the First Mine <br />was closed and could not be viewed for confirmation of <br />the condition of the mine, etc. How do we confirm any <br />information provided to us with reference to the actual <br />mining that took place at the First Mine when we know <br />that'the mine does not comply with the rules, <br />a d misrepresents the facts as it suits them? <br />~ c~ 2. Damage to Structure letter dated July 7, 1993, <br />~ from Daniel Hernandez to Jim Tatum contains many <br />statements or opinions of Mr. Hernandez that can't <br />stand the light of day. The discharge drain from the <br />gravity discharge drain is clearly visible; <br />the steam heater in the home emits steam for heat <br />obviously, steam comes from water so we add water <br />~ as needed; the mine is not, and i repeat is not, ?50 _ <br />feet from my home. The distance from my home to the <br />mine is from 200 -300. feet, a fact which t.*.e mi.^.~ ::as <br />now admitted; according to Mr. Hernandez's own <br />calculations, paragraph 1, 2, and 3, page 3, using the <br />correct distance of 200 - 300 plus feet from the <br />i mine to my home we are Clearly in the subsidence area. <br />The mine clearly did not notify youi Department that <br />our home was within the subsidence area and NOT 950 <br />feet from the mine. An oversight on their part? More <br />like a total misrepresentation of the facts. <br />d. Our December 1, 1991, letter to Hernandez could not <br />have been taken into consideration in light of the <br />Department's findings. <br />e. Steve Renner's letter of January 19, 1993, states <br />that "an inspection conducted on January 13, 1993, <br />revealed that two trees directly in front of the <br />exhaust fan were now showing signs or distress." Tne <br />two trees referred to were healthy prior to the mine <br />installing the exhaust fan. We have not received any <br />confirmation that these fumes will not affect livestock <br /> <br />
