For the Bowie No. 2 Mine, <br />Bowie Resources has withdrawn Technical Revision No. 6, which involved the installation of a <br />downhill conveyor, coal stockpile and ttvck loadout and the relocation of a sedimentation pond <br />and Technical Revision No. 7, which involved the change in the mine plan to go to Iongwall <br />mining with an increase in production from 2 million tons per year to 5 million tons per year. <br />For the Bowie No. 1 Mine, Bowie Resources also has withdrawn Technical Revision No. 30, <br />which concerned an increase in production at the railroad loadout from 2 million tons per year to <br />5 million tons per year. <br />In place of the withdrawn Technical Revisions Nos. 6 and 7, Bowie Resources will resubmit the <br />information under one permit revision. The company and the Division chose to combine these <br />two permitting actions into one revision, in part, to accommodate the wishes of individuals such <br />as yourself, who have indicated a desire to meet with the Division to discuss the proposed mine <br />plans. Technical Revision No. 30 will be submitted at a later time, again, as a technical revision. <br />Technical Revision No. 30 can not be submitted under the forthcoming Bowie No. 2 Mine permit <br />revision since it involves the Bowie No. 1 Mine and, therefore, has a different permit number. <br />Bowie Resources has indicated that they will be submitting the Bowie No. 2 permit revision very <br />soon. At that time, the company will publish notice of their application in the Delta Colrnty <br />Independent for four consecutive weeks and place a copy of the revision application in the Delta <br />County Clerk & Recorder's Office. If you wish to submit comments on the proposed revision, <br />you may review the material at the courthouse and submit comments [o this office, as indicated <br />in the public notice. If you wish to have your original comments apply to the forthcoming <br />revisions, please either resubmit those comments [o [he Division, referencing the new revisions, <br />or send this Division a letter stating that you wish [o have your original comments apply to the <br />
