SHEL70N, Director <br />Richartl D. Lamm <br />Governor <br />August 12, 1985 <br />Ms. Virginia Ager <br />Delta County Health Department <br />103 West 11th Street <br />Delta, Colorado 81416 <br />RE: Blue Ribbon Mine, Our File No. C-047-81 <br />Dear Ms. Ager: <br />I was unable to reach you on July 12, 1985; therefore, I left a message which, <br />hopefully, answered your question. This letter shall serve to follow-up on <br />your question and confirm my response. <br />Blue Ribbon Coal Co. submitted their application to rebuild their mine bench <br />using Mt. Gunnison No. 1 mine gob on August 9, 1984. Public Notice concerning <br />the revision was published in the Delta County Independent on August 30, <br />1984. The Division published notice of our proposed decision to approve the <br />revision on September 13, 1984. These two publications are the only <br />notifications required for a technical revision, in accordance with our Rule <br />2.08.4(5)(b). <br />Hauling of gob to the mine for bench reconstruction was completed in early <br />July 1985. <br />During a June 1985 inspection, we noted a dust problem and advised Blue Ribbon <br />Coal Co. to reduce the dust immediately. However, our jurisdiction and Blue <br />Ribbon's responsibility under their mining permit ends at the entrance to the <br />mine. We have no jurisdiction on the dirt road from the state highway to the <br />mine facility. <br />Please feel free to call if you have any further questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />~~ <br />Susan Mowry <br />Reclamation Specialist <br />cc: Bob Liddle, MLRD <br />SM/cj <br />2609E <br />423 Centennial Building, 1313 Sherman Street Denver, Colorado 80203 Tel.
