Lovell Division of Wildlife 6060 Broadway Denver, CO 80216 RE: Basin Resources NOI X-92-213-00; Threatened and Endangered Species Statement Dear Mr. Lovell, Per our phone conversation on March 10, 1993, I am sending you a copy of the map locating the Northern drill holes approved under X- 92-213-00. Apparently there has been some confusion as to the Threatened, Endangered, and Sensitive Species Statement prepared by the Division of Wildlife. Ron Thompson of Basin Resources stated that DOW was only concerned with the drill holes located South of the Purgatoire River, and that the statement does not apply with the Northern Drill Holes. The Division was not aware that DOW did not have a copy of the drill holes located in the North portion, and the Division assumed that the report was for the entire drilling location. The Legal Description is as follows: T33S R68W Sections 1, 12 T33S R67W Sections 6, 8 Basin Resources was found in violation of permit X-92-213-00 for drilling past the deadline as specified by DOW. The Division is requesting that DOW review the map locating the Northern Drill Holes to determine if there is a significant impact on Threatened and Endangered species in that area. This statement will be considered by the Division in making the determination of the seriousness of drilling in the Northern Region past the specified deadline. I would appreciate a response prior to March 15, 1993, the date of the extended assessment conference. The Fax number at the Division of Minerals and Geology is (303) 832-8106.
