Cottony <br />Division Director <br />Natural Resource Trustee <br />David Middleton, Assistant U.S. Attorney out of Lexington, Kentucky, wanted to know the distinction <br />between the Bowie No.l Mine and the Bowie No. 2 Mine as they relate to royalty payments to the <br />federal Minerals Management Service. <br />I told him that the Bowie No. 1 Mine and the Bowie No. 2 Mine are two separate mines with two <br />sepazate permit numbers, although they have the same organization running them. I said Bowie No 1 <br />stopped mining in 1997, although they had some stockpiled coal at the temporary coal stockpile that <br />they shipped off a few years ago. Bowie No. 2 trucked their mined coal to the Bowie No. 1 train <br />loadout for shipment until Bowie No. 2 built their own train loadout in 2002. <br />He asked which mine was associated with BLM coal lease COG-61209. I said the Bowie No. 2 permit <br />shows that that lease belongs to the Bowie No. 2 Mine. The Bowie No. 1 permit does not list that lease <br />as part of the Bowie No. 1 Mine. <br />David Middleton can be reached at (859) 233-2661 extension 177 and at david.middleton(a,usdoj.gov. <br />c:/word/bowie2/s02memo3 <br />Office of Office of Colorado <br />Mined Land Reclamation Active and Inactive Mines Geological Survey <br />
