The Division of Minerals and Geology ("the Division") issued a certain Notice of Proposed Amount of Civil

requested conference having been held as required by law, on June 9, 1999, the Division and the operator hereby
agree as follows:
I. The amount of the penalty shall be $750.00;
2. The penalty shall be paid to the Division by the operator not later than 30 days from the date
this Agreement is signed by all parties;
3. Payment of such penalty by the operator shall constitute a waiver of all further rights to review
of such penalty or of the violation on which it is based.
This agreement shall not be effective unless signed by the operator within ten days after the closing date of such
conference, which date is set forth below opposite the signature of the Conference Officer.

If not signed within ten days, the Division will fix the penalty at whatever amount it deems appropriate. The
