Cottony <br /> Division Director <br />Re: Financial Warranty Increase, SI-02, Rocky Ford East Pit, M-1977-560 Natural Resource Trustee <br />Dear Mr. Brubaker: <br />The Division received and reviewed your letter regarding your request for some help analyzing <br />the DMG's cost summary form. <br />All the tasks and material volumes are derived from the approved permit. Specifically, <br />amendment number one lists all the tasks and volumes for the amended part of the permit. In <br />1995, Valco and the DMG agreed to the required reclamation tasks and the equipment and <br />volumes necessary to complete the tasks. Amendment number one was approved subject to a <br />substantial bond increase. This financial warranty requirement was based on updated equipment <br />and labor costs for the tasks and volumes agreed to in 1995. <br />Hopefully, this information will help you understand the various tasks and cost estimates. If you <br />need additional information, you should be able to find it in the approved permit. <br />If you have any other questions, please give me a call at 303-866-4060. <br />Sincerely, <br />~/ ~~ <br />James Dllhe <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />cc: Harry Posey (e-mail) <br />Office of Office of Colorado <br />Mined Land Reclamation Active and Inactive Mines Geological Survey <br />
