The Corporation believes that the property value would <br />be enhanced if certain structures were preserved for future use. Although there are not <br />currently any specific plans for post-mining use of the property, in out opinion the mine <br />structures would likely prove to be of value for a variety of future uses. Specifically, we <br />support maintaining the following buildings at Henderson: Surface warehouse and <br />maintenance shops, main office building and attached eating and shower facilities, as <br />well as the sewage and potable water treatment plants. These structures have or support <br />infrastructure that is extremely desirable in Clear Creek County: electricity, gas, fiber <br />optic, potable water and sewer. These buildings, with the infrastructure, could support a <br />variety of future uses on the property including light industrial, commercial and <br />recreation. <br />We are sensitive to the need for your office to meet its goals in ensuring that the <br />Henderson property is left in a condition, following mining operations, that is protective of <br />the environment. However, we believe that retention of the structures described above <br />would in no way impair the desired reclamation quality for the site, and that it would actually <br />facilitate the most beneficial future use of the property. <br />We appreciate your consideration of this mattes Please do not hesitate to contact me at <br />303.569.2133 if I can be of further assistance. <br />Sincerely, ~~~~ <br />Pe tot tad <br />PresidenUCEO <br />Cc: Anne Beierle, Henderson <br />502 Sixth Street P.O.
