Included with that <br />application was the required $6500 permit amendment fee. Subsequently, and prior to <br />Mined Land Reclamation Board (MLRB) action on this application, Henderson, in <br />conjunction with the DMRS, determined that AM-OS was not necessary for the <br />immediate task of construction of the ultimate interceptor canal around the tailings <br />facility. Further action on AM-05 was terminated by both parties at that time. <br />Henderson is officially withdrawing AM-OS and submitting a completed application for <br />AM-06. In resubmitting an amendment application under AM-06, Henderson is <br />requesting that the application fee for AM-OS be applied to processing of AM-06. <br />The primary purpose of AM-06 is to increase the affected land area at the Henderson mill <br />site by 95 net acres and to provide an updated affected land area map using advancements <br />in mapping technology. As discussed in the text, this map represents a more accurate and <br />comprehensive affected land boundary for the Henderson mill site. <br />If you have any questions regarding this application, please do not hesitate to call me at <br />303-569-3221 x2284. <br />Sincerely, <br />Tim Haynes <br />Environmental Engineer <br />Henderson Operations <br />thaynes@phelpsdodge.com <br />cc: Bryce Romig, Environmental Manager, Colorado Operations <br />
