TRAPPER MINING INC. <br />December 4, 2003 <br />Ms. Janet Binns <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Colorado Division of Minerals & Geology <br />1313 Sherman Street, Room 2I5 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />Dear Ms. Binns: <br />~~~~~ ~ll~~~ <br />DEC 0 81003 <br />Givision of Minerals and Geolog~~ <br />;Re: Trapper Mining Inc., Permit No. C-81-010, Minor Revision MR-192 <br />Change Perimeter and Topsoil Marker Colors _ <br />Please find enclosed duplicate copies of permit revision application materials for MR-192. With this <br />application, Trapper is requesting approval to change the perimeter and topsoil marker colors from <br />fluorescent orange to white PVC pipe. <br />To process this revision the following change should be incorporated into the permit document: <br />Replace Figures 3.1-3 (page 3-6) and 3.1-4 (page 3-7) with the updated attached sheets. <br />The current requirement to use fluorescent orange signs with black lettering has proven to be <br />maintenance intensive and serves no useful purpose that we can see. Each year we have summer <br />students spend several weeks painting each permit marker fluorescent orange and then adding either a <br />black "T" for topsoil pile or "P" for perimeter marker. Within a few weeks, the fluorescent orange <br />color has already begun to fade. It will be much more economical for Trapper to allow the PVC pipe <br />to fade out to white and paint the letters on the white color instead of the fluorescent orange color. <br />There will be no engineering requirements or mine plan changes due to this minor revision, therefore, <br />no bond changes are requested. Trapper currently holds a performance bond for $25,900,000. <br />Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns with the enclosed information. <br />Sincerely, <br />~ro~.~i.(N/L <br />Frank Self! <br />Sr. Environmental Specialist <br />FMs <br />[MR192 Cover Letter] <br />c Jane[Binns-two copies <br />File 109.2.3.4 <br />Revisions File <br />John Husband, BLM <br />P.0.
