~~ 7oli: Michael B: l;ong- <br />August-9, 1995 <br />Page 2 <br />- . .. <br />Reclamation plans for the SF Loadouts in the permit application reflect the industrial <br />postmining land use. The plans include removal of coal handling structures and equipment, <br />removal of excess road/ramp materials, and regrading. In addition, the site receives no topsoil <br />or revegetation. <br />Energy Fuels initiated reclamation in 1993 and completed the work in 1994. Reclamation <br />involved removal from the site of all coal handling structures and equipment, removal of <br />excess road materials, backfilling the sub-grade hopper structure, and regrading the sites <br />according to the railway company specificafions. Site drainage was established ink accordance <br />with the reclamation plan, with silt fences constructed for end-point sediment control. <br />Energy Fuels no longer plans to utilize the SF Loadouts, the entire associated su ~rface <br />disturbance area• was reclaimed consistent with the approved reclamation plan and landowner <br />wishes, and the area was returned to 'a' condition consistent with the approved postmining <br />industrial land use. Given the above conditions, Energy Fuels respectfully requests that the <br />DMG release that portion of the existing bond for the Raton Creek Mine in the amount of <br />$8,963 that is associated with SF Loadouts. Upon receipt of notification from the DMG that <br />this transmittal meets requirements for bond release' application, Energy Fuels will issue the <br />Proposed Public Notice both for publication in the local newspaper (Rule 3.03.2(1) and by <br />certified mail to the individuals or entities identified by the accompanying list. ~ <br />If you have any questions regarding this submittal or require additional information, please <br />feel free to contact me at your convenience. <br />Sincerely, <br />Energy Fuels Mining Company <br />Allen S.
