1. The TR submittal references the original permit boundary. It is assumed this is in reference
to the 260 acre property boundary because the 26 acre affected land boundary coincides with the
permit boundary.
2. The TR submittal states that a portion of the access road needs to be re-routed in order to
eliminate the "need to cross land which is not within the permit area." The access road is part of
the permit area so please explain why Colorado Lien thinks the road needs to be re-routed.
3. If the existing access road is abandoned at the request of the landowner, and Colorado Lien
constructs a new road segment, and the acreage is identical, there will no need to increase the
affected land acreage (it would remain at 26.0 acres). However, in order for such a land swap to
take place Colorado Lien must begin by submitting adequate evidence (a letter from the
landowner) that the road will not be reclaimed but, rather, will remain as-is for the beneficial use
of the landowner (eg. to feed and water his animals etc.). If the landowner requires reclamation of
the road, the permit and affected land azea will need to be increased in order to accomoda[e the
new road; which may require an amendment submittal. Regazdless, Colorado Lien will be
required to request a release of the north access road segment in order to remove it from the
permit area. In order to approve a release request, the Division must be satisfied that the
reclamation complies with the approved permit or that the non-reclamation complies with the
wishes of the landowner.
4. The affected land area (except for the north segment of the access road) is located on Forest
Service managed lands (unpatented claims). Colorado Lien must submit proof to [he Division
that the U.S. Forest Service has been notified of the proposed access road modification submittal
that has been submitted to the DMG since the new road segment will be located on USFS land.
