COLORA00 81201 <br />State of Colorado <br />Division of Minerals & Geology <br />1313 Sherman Street, Rm 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />Ref: Permit #M-1987-127 <br />A Technical Revision <br />RECEIVED <br />DEC 14 1001 <br />Giv/sion ai Minerals and Ceo10 <br />9Y <br />This is a Technical Revision to Butala Permit #M-1987-127 regarding changes- <br />modification to the reclamation plan for this pit operation. The original reclamation plan <br />included a map indicating that drainage would be directed southward, away from the <br />headwall. On this map, the base area extends from the headwall inclined toward the <br />south slope with no designated drainage route that would eliminate erosion of the slope <br />itself. <br />An updated reclamation plan has been initiated and expedited that will resolve the <br />problems existing with the original plan. An updated map is included with this Technical <br />Revision outlining the new reclamation program. <br />For the new reclamation program afour-foot berm has been installed around the entire <br />south perimeter of the existing base area. The slope of the base area has been reversed <br />from that of the original reclamation plan. The slope is now on a gradient of 10' to 1' <br />northwazd toward the headwall. There is a drainage area at the base of the headwall that <br />collects drainage and disperse it into a fractured rock bottom of the connected two-basin <br />collection area. <br />The new reclamation plan will result in a calm, previously graded, surface with no <br />erosion problems. It will also result in a stable-calm surface that will hold topsoil <br />properly, allowing revegitation of the area for reclamation. <br />This new reclamation plan will affect the reclamation bond required by the Colorado <br />Department of Minerals & Geology. Mr. Jim Dillie and Mr. Jim Stevens of Division of <br />Minerals & Geology was made aware of the new reclamation plan during a conference at <br />the Division of Minerals & Geology office in Denver on 11 December 2001. <br /> <br />iii iiiiiiiiiiiii~ii , <br />~~~~~ VOST OFFICE BO% 90T <br />EVERV CONSTRUCTION SERVICE <br />FROM THE DRAFTING BOARD TO THE BUILDING <br /> <br />
