Walther <br />Ezewtive Director <br />Ronald W. Cattany <br />Acing Division Director <br />In an effort to ensure the financial warranty remains adequate to reclaim this site per the <br />requirements of the approved reclamation plan, DMG has updated the reclamation cost <br />estimate (copy enclosed). Clearly, the site is currently under-bonded. Therefore, pursuant <br />to Section 34-32.5-117(4) of the Colorado Land Reclamation Act, adequate financial <br />warranty must be submitted to DMG within 60 days of the mailing date of this report. <br />Please review the enclosed figures as soon as possible and contact our office if any <br />calculation errors are noted. <br />Staff estimates the costs to reclaim this site at 563,444.00. The increase in Financial <br />Warranty wilt be due on or before 5/19/03. This is an increase of $14,044.00. The <br />increase is due to increases in the costs of materials and equipment use since the original <br />estimate was done in 1997. <br />If you need additional information, please contact me at the Division of Minerals and <br />Geology, Grand Junction Field Office, 101 S. 3rd St., Suite 301, Grand Junction, Colorado <br />81501, telephone no. 970.241.1117. <br />Sincerely, <br />~~~~ <br />G'.
