Re: Operator's Request for Vacation of NOV C-94-009
Coal Ridge No. 1 Mine (C-84-065)
Mr. Peter Matthies, the permitting contact for the Coal Ridge
No. 1 mine, has requested that the above referenced NOV be vacated.
I am, therefore, referring his request to you for consideration.
A summary of the history of the NOV follows:
• The NOV was issued on May 23, 1994 for a failure to make
copies of all records available for public inspection.
Specifically, the DMG permit was not on file at the
County Courthouse.
• The operator stated, in a letter dated June 6, 1994, that
the DMG permit had been on file in the courthouse, but
that it had disappeared in a similar fashion to the way
other documents had disappeared in the past. However, a
search through the files revealed that the permit
document, issued in January, 1993, had actually never
been signed and returned to the Division by the operator.
• The operator was informed, verbally, in person, on June
13, 1994 that the permit document had been sent out in
January 1993 and still needs to be signed and returned to
the Division. To date, nothing has been received.
In light of the fact that the permit document was evidently never
on file at the Garfield County Courthouse, and was indeed never
fully executed, I do not recommend that this NOV be vacated. If
you need further information, please contact me.
