Permit A permit for mining operations, issued by the Colorado Division of Minerals and <br />Geology. In this review, this term included the PAP and all files and reports <br />associated with the permit. <br />Rules Regulations of the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Boazd for Coal Mining <br />SL-O1 Application for a Partial Phase I Bond Release <br />Section I -History of the Site <br />Storm King Mines Inc submitted the initial application for Permit C-84-065 for the Coal Ridge <br />No. 1 Mine on March 12, 1984. The company changed its name to New Castle Energy <br />Corporation (NCEC) on July 26, 1985. The permit was first issued on October 9, 1985 and <br />renewed on December 10, 1989. A corridor of land was added to the permit area fora 2-inch <br />water line (March 25, 1991) from the facilities area of the permit to the Colorado River. The <br />permit was transferred to NCIG Financial, Inc. on July 10, 1991. The permit was renewed on <br />January 30, 1993 and on February 28, 1997. A partial Phase I bond release was approved in 1995 <br />(SL-O1). A noncontiguous pre-existing industrial site was approved for a coal loadout facility <br />(located in the Clough Industrial Park at Lacy, Colorado), but the site was never used and was <br />later deleted from the permit (1996). The waterline was removed, and the waterline corridor was <br />removed from the permit in 1999. <br />The life of mine plan encompassed over 5,900 acres, of which approximately 2,484.3 acres are <br />currently permitted. Forty-six and a half surface acres (1999 Annual Reclamation Report) were <br />disturbed. The Wheeler seam was to be mined by hydraulic methods (an exploration program and <br />a hydraulic mining test preceded development). Coal was to be transported by a water flume to a <br />preparation facility. The coal was then to be dewa[ered, and stored for shipment by rail to <br />customers. <br />Development operations commenced in October 1986 and were discontinued in March 1987. <br />Two entranceway portals were driven by a roadheader approximately 500 feet into the hillside. <br />Coal seams were not reached and coal was not produced. The decision was made in 1993 to <br />reclaim the site, and reclamation operations were initiated in 1994. Facilities were demolished, <br />and backfill and grading activities were accomplished. <br />There have been no notices of violations issued against Permit C-85-065 since the third permit <br />renewal of February 28, 1997. <br />Section II -Revisions Since 1997 <br />The following revisions to Permit C-85-065 have occurred since the renewal of February 28, <br />1997. <br />Technical Revision 15, decision date April 21, 1998. This revision clarified and redefined <br />vegetation success standards. <br />Technical Revision 16, decision date September 3, 1999. This revision deleted the pipeline <br />corridor from the permit. <br />
