Box 68, Craig, CO 81626, was <br />deemed complete for the purposes of filing. All reviews and comment periods <br />as provided in the Act and Regulations promulgated thereunder initiate from <br />this day of filing. <br />The applicant proposes to revise underground coal mining operations at the <br />Eagle No. 5 and 9 Mines.

These tracts of land are shown on USGS 7.5 <br />minute Quadrangle map of Round Bottom. <br />Because the above referenced technical revision application might alter <br />previously approved permit conditions or mitigation measures, we are <br />requesting your agency's evaluation of the proposal as it relates to fish and <br />wildlife considerations, including potential impacts to threatened or <br />endangered species. <br />A copy of the technical revision application is enclosed. In order for us to <br />comply with regulatory time frames, we request that comments be submitted to <br />the Division of Minerals and Geology at the above address by 5:00 p.m. on <br />February 25, 1995. If no comments are received by this date, we will proceed <br />on the assumption that your agency has no concerns with or objections to the <br />applicant's proposal. <br />A copy of the technical revision application is available for public inspec- <br />tion at the Moffat County Courthouse, West Victory Way, Craig, Colorado. <br />
