Dudazh <br />Office of Mined Land Reclamation Division of Ivllnerals ~ ~eoloyy <br />1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 <br />Re: Energy Fuels Mining Company -Raton Creek Mine (Permit No. C-82-055), <br />Abatement Response for NOV C-93-47, Haul Road Certification <br />Dear Mr Dudazh: <br />Accompanying this transmittal letter is a minor revision (MR-~ application and supporting <br />materials to address applicable abatement requirements for NOV C-93-47 dealing with haul road <br />certification. NOV C-93-47 was written for: <br />Failure to maintain copies of all records, reports and information required by the <br />regulations at a convenient place in the area of mining. Specific information <br />apparently not on file at the mine office includes quarterly refuse inspections , an <br />updated sediment pond certification, a current certificate of public liabili[y <br />insurance, and a haul road certification. <br />The steps necessary to abate the violation are specified to include the following anions: <br />Ensure current engineering certification for the sediment pond, refuse pile and <br />haul roads, and a current certifiate of insurance are submitted to the Division <br />and placed on file at the mine office. <br />In response to the requirement for haul road certification, Energy Fuels Mining Company <br />(EFMC) is submitting this minor revision application to down-grade all mine haul roads to <br />access roads. The Raton Creek Mine caazed operations in November 1991 and filed a notice of <br />permanent cessation at that time. At the time of cessation coal production ceased and all <br />associated coal haulage was terminated, thus eliminating the need for haul roads. Because haul <br />roads are no longer required for coal haulage (Rules 1.04 (111)(a), 4.03.1(1)(d) and 403.2(1)(c)) <br />EFMC respenfully requests approval of this minor revision to down-grade the existing haul <br />roads to access roads, thus eliminating the need for haul road certifications. <br />The minor revision package incudes the following: <br />• Appliation Form for Minor Revision <br />• Summary of Revisions <br />• Revised Permit Text and Maps <br />
