I'd Tike to provide the following respoous. ICrassa's Letter of February 25. 1994 Your fast question concernod Mr. Krassa's comments in Paragraph No. 2 regarding We surface owners overlying the Golden Eagle Miue, and the location of their properties that he alleges an missing from the Surface Ovmer's Map. At the February 2'3, 1994 meeting at which representatives of the Division, Basin Resources and p Ratan West met, m updated Stirrfea Ownership Man was submitted to the Division by the opeiator. /~l'\ Most of the information appeated correct to Ratan Wesl though at least one error was identified. The Division has asked the two paRies to coordinate on This matter. Additionally, the Division is asking the two parties to agrx on a cutoff date of January 21, 1994 for the surface ownership information. Finally, we have asked Basin W submit Surface Ownership Maps [o the Division on a quarterly basis. The next gtustion pertained to the status of the submittals that Mr. ICrassa, in his Paragraph No. 3, stated were missing. The submittals were due on January 21, 1994. This day was a holiday, so the items were delivered on January 22, 1994. Mr. Carl Getity, representing Raton Wes[, was unable to come to the office that day. He telephoned the office that day and requested copies of the submittals mailed to him. This was done; however, the mailed copies did not arrive to him in time before the January 23, 1994 mceting. On January 23, 1994, Mr. Gerity picked up some of the material, and the remaining material was mailed again to him. The submittals of January 22, 1994 were reviewed by the Division and an adequacy letter was sent on March 4, 1994. The next question, pertaining W Mr. Krassa's comments in Paragraph No. 4, asked if all maps encompassed the eatiro permit arta, parucularly the post-mining land use map, and whether this was caught during the Division's review of the permit renewal: Not all maps submitted for underground mining operations are required to identify the permit boundary. Rule 2.10.1(3) states 'All maps shall show the permit area boundaries where the area of the map covers the boundaries."
