Lochhcad <br />Executive Direao~ <br />Michael 8. Long <br />Drvisinn Dueclor <br />On January 18, 1995 we conducted an inspection of your mine and Found that it appeared mining related land <br />disturbances had occurred outside the permit boundary. Your response to a corrective action confirmed that <br />more than the permitted 9.5 acres has been disturbed. <br />We believe, pursuant to Rule 3.3.2(2)(b), this is in violation of Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Act <br />C.R.S. Sections 34-32-109 or 116(7)(h). <br />Therefore, we have found reason to believe a violation exists to Permit M-78-268 and the Law and have <br />scheduled this matter before the Mined Land Reclamation Board. <br />A Formal Public Hearing will be held during the July 26-27, 1995 Board meeting for consideration of possible <br />violation. The hearing will be held in Room 318 of 1313 Sherman Street, Denver, Colorado, beginning at <br />9;00 a.m. or as soon thereafter as the matter can be considered and you will have the opportunity to be <br />represented and heard. It will be reiterated that there is reason to believe that you are in violation of the <br />provisions noted above. <br />If the Board finds a violation at this hearing, it may issue a cease and desist order, assess a civil penalty in the <br />amount of $50.00 to $200.00 for each day of violation or order the permit be suspended, modified or revoked. <br />If you have evidence indicating that the possible violations noted above do not exist or have been corrected, <br />please provide it to us as soon as possible or bring it to the hearing. <br />If you have any questions, please contact Larry Oehler. <br />Sincerell <br />MICHAE .LONG <br />Division Director <br />MBL/LDO/amm <br />CERTIFIED MAIL NO.
