On the basis of information submitted by RAG Empire Corporation in the form of a letter <br />from the State Historic Preservation Office of the Colorado Historical Society (January 7. <br />1982), the Division finds that, subject to valid, existing rights as of August 3, 1977, the <br />mining operation will not adversely affect any publicly owned park or place listed on or <br />eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places as determined by the State <br />Historic Preser/ation Office (2.07.6(2)(e)(i)). No new surface disturbance is proposed for <br />the next five-year permit term; therefore, the letter from the State Historic Preservation <br />Office is still valid. Additionally, RAG Empire Corporation has committed to contact <br />either the Regional Director or the District Supervisor of the Bureau of Land Management <br />14 <br />
