Box 591 <br />Somerset, CO 81434 <br />Re: Grand Mesa Properties Company <br />Notice of Undermining Property <br />Dear Sira: <br />cLVU a:cztrESrtxac <br />COaBTAIICTL01[ xANACflSJIr <br />I have been involved with the management of Grand Heaa Properties <br />Company, 'GMPC" since 1985. From 1985 through Marsh 31, 1988, I <br />was an employee of an associated company which managed the business <br />affairs of GMPC. Beginning April 1, 1988 to the present, I have <br />been working under a Management Services Agreement that provides <br />for the management of the business affairs of GMPC. <br />By letter dated December 13, 1984, West Elk Coal Company notified <br />GMPC that West Elk Coal Company would be mining under GMPC'S <br />surface begiaaing on ar about February 1, 1985. By letter dated <br />Januazy 8, 1985, west Elk Coal Company transmitted a copy of its <br />five year mine plea to GMPC. it i.a my understanding that West Elk <br />Coal Company did not begin undermining GHPC's land until August <br />1985. <br />Since GMPC was formed, it has been managed by individuals with <br />knowledge of the coal mining industry. These individuals <br />understood the effect underground coal mining could have oa the <br />surface. Because of these faatora and based on my involvement with <br />the management of GMPC, I believe that the notice GMPC received by <br />letter dated December 13, 1984, and the receipt of West Elk Coal <br />Companyp's mine plan, was adequate notice of the impending <br />undermining of GMPC's land. <br />Please call if you have any questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />tai^y <br />Ji1a Stover, p.E. <br />Consulting Engineer <br />TQTFL P.01 <br />
