RE: Need For State Reclamation Permit Natural Resource Trustee
Dear Mr. Nickerson:
Enclosed are pertinent sections of the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Board (Board) Rules and Regulations and
Board Policy adopted July of 1999, titled "Need for a Reclamation Permit". To determine if you need a permit for
your proposed activity, first check Rule 1.2 which describes activities the Boazd has determined do not require state
reclamation permits and the attached policy. If you find a match, you can proceed based on your interpretation of the
rule, but at your risk. If you want to be sure or are uncertain how the Rule may apply to your activity, you should
answer the list of questions that follow and send your question, i.e., "Do I need a State Mined Land Reclamation
Board permit?" to the Division.
The Board has directed the Division to make the decision based on the information you supply. If you disagree with
the Division's decision, you may appeal that decision to the Board.
Please include in your request answers to the following questions:
1. Please give the legal location of the proposed project and submit a site map that clearly delineates the
location of the proposed extraction site and the location of the neazest city, town, and county location name.

5. What on site use will be made of the extracted material?
