Cottony <br />Aping Division Director <br />On August 27, 2002, DMG determined that the amendment application (AM-01) for the Hay <br />Camp Pit satisfied the minimum requirements of the Act and Rules. Therefore, on August 27, <br />2002, DMG approved AM-01 . <br />DMG has estimated the current cost of reclamation at $168,615. Please find enclosed, copy of <br />DMG's reclamation cost estimation dated August 26, 2002, consisting of twelve pages of <br />summary, work sheets and data sheets. Pursuant to Rule 4.2.1(4), the enclosed reclamation cost <br />estimation addresses reclamation for existing affected lands for permit areas M-1990-025 <br />(Gardner Pit No. 2A) and M-1985-172 (Gardner Pit), as well as new lands proposed to be affected <br />during the year after the issuance of AM-01 . <br />Please note that although the amendment application has been approved, DMG will not issue the <br />permit until we receive and approve the Performance and Financial Warranties, as required by Rule <br />4.1 (2). Please ensure that mining activities do not commence in areas beyond the previously <br />approved boundaries for permit areas M-1990-025 and M-1985-172, until DMG receives and <br />approves financial warranty for AM-01 in an amount not less than 5168,615. <br />Please contact me at the DMG Durango Office, 701 Camino del Rio, Room 125, Durango, CO <br />81301, phone (970) 247-5469, if you have any questions. <br />Sincere) <br />Gv~Z,~~~~~~~ <br />Wallace H.
