<br />NOTICE OF PROPOSED DECISION <br />The Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Division has issued a proposed decision to <br />approve a technical revision to the mining and reclamation plans for the <br />Colorado Coal Mine No. 1, Permit No. C-81-024, operated by Kaiser Steel <br />Resources Inc., under the provisions of the Colorado Surface Coal Mining <br />Reclamation Act of 1979. The proposed technical revision (TR - 012) was <br />submitted by Kaiser Steel Resources Inc. on September 30, 1991. The affected <br />area is located in portions of Sections 25 and 26, Township 27 5, Range 67W, <br />6th P.M. in Huerfano County. The mine site is located one mile north of <br />Walsenburg, Colorado. These lands may be located on the USGS 7.5 minute <br />quadrangle entitled Walsenburg North. <br />This technical revision described successful erosion control through <br />vegetation re-establishment. Kaiser Steel provided hydraulic documentation <br />that the total suspended solids being generated from the site were currently <br />less than they had been pre-mining. As a consequence of this demonstration, <br />the ditches and ponds at the site will be reclaimed. <br />Copies of the proposed technical revision are available for review at the <br />Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Division office, 1313 Sherman Street, Room <br />215, Denver, Colorado 80203. Any person who has an interest which is or may <br />be adversely affected may request a formal hearing regarding this proposed <br />decision. Requests for a formal hearing must be made in writing within ten <br />(10) days of this publication and shall state with reasonable specificity the <br />reasons for the request and objections to the proposed decision. <br />
