This request <br />increases the number of start-up and production wells from 26 to 34. The increase <br />in the number of wells may be needed to supplement the production during the <br />initial mining phase. Once the wells have expanded and production of nahcolite <br />increases from the wells, a reduced rate will be used to manage cavity growth. <br />This-revision does not change impacts analyzed in the EIS for the Yankee Gulch <br />Sodium Minerals Project and is therefore approved. <br />Prior to drilling any additional wells appropriate bonding will be required. <br />If there any questions, please contact Paul Daggett at (970) 878-3601. <br />Sincerely, <br />//~L/L /1s-cam/ /~v~"` <br />e James Cagney <br />Associate Field Manager <br />~`'_ <br />cc: Mr. Dan Jackson <br />United States Environmental Protection Agency <br />999 18th Street - Suite 500 _ <br />Mail Code 8WM-DW <br />Denver, CO 80202-2466 - <br />Mr. Allen Sorenson ~ ~-~ <br />Colorado Division Minerals and Geology_ _ ____ f <br />Department of Natural Resources ' <br />1313 Sherman St. , Room 215 Sp~ecialist: ESC <br />Denver, CO 80203 -~ennit#: M1999002 <br />Class: (~,°ylerCt.Q ~aS <br />Vim: ~~ <br />~c.
