Mid-Term Review <br /> Roadside and Cameo Mines <br /> Introduction <br /> This document presents the results of the Division 's Mid-Term Review of <br /> Powderhorn Coal Company's Roadside and Cameo Mines. This Mid-Term review was <br /> conducted to fulfill the requirements of Rules 2.08.3, 2.06.2(9) , 2.06.3(4) , <br /> 2 .06 .5(3), 2 .06.7(5) and 3.02.2(4) of the Regulations of the Colorado Mined <br /> Land Reclamation Board for Coal Mining. <br /> Rule 2.08.3 requires that the Division conduct a review of each permit issued, <br /> prior to its mid-term. Based on this review, for good cause shown, the <br /> Division may require reasonable revision or modification of the permit <br /> provisions to ensure compliance with the Act and Regulations. <br /> Rules 2.06.2, 2.06.3, 2.06.5 and 2.06.7 require that experimental practices, <br /> mountain top removal variances , variances from AOC, and variances from <br /> contemporaneous reclamation be reviewed by the Division where applicable <br /> during the mid-term review. None of these Rule designations apply to the <br /> Roadside and Cameo mining operation. Rule 3.02.2(4) requires that the <br /> Division review the amount of the bond and the terms of acceptance of the bond <br /> every 2-1 /2 years. <br /> This mid-term review consisted of a detailed review of the Roadside and <br /> Cameo Mine application to identify any items that may have been overlooked <br /> during the initial review. The Division also reviewed all subsequent <br /> revisions and stipulation responses to ensure that all permit commitments and <br /> conditions were being followed. Hydrologic monitoring data was reviewed in <br /> conjunction with the review of the application to assess the adequacy of the <br /> monitoring plan and discussion of hydrologic impacts. Problems and <br /> observations from past inspection reports were also considered. <br /> Those issues , deficiencies , conflicts, etc. identified by the Division as a <br /> result of this review are noted in the following sections and require a <br /> response by the operator. This response is to be made by November 1 , 1990. <br /> Where modifications of the permit application are necessary, these are to be <br /> proposed by the operator in the form of a revision (or revisions ) to the <br /> permit and shall include updated Table of Contents or other indices, <br /> narrative, calculations , maps , and/or exhibits in such form as to be suitable <br /> for direct insertion into the permit application package when approved. <br /> -1 - <br />
