The changes <br />essentially delete the reference to the Abandoned Mined Land <br />Program, Title IV of the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act <br />of 1977. <br />On paragraph three (3), the first sentence was deleted. The second <br />sentence was revised to state "Pursuant to the requirements for the <br />State to reclaim permit revocation sites, Colorado has offered to <br />conduct, at no cost to Mountain Coal Company, reclamation <br />activities." <br />Item 1 on page one was revised to omit Title IV and 30 U.S.C & 1231 <br />et seq. Colorado revised status 1973 was changed from 34-33-133 to <br />34-33-101. <br />The last paragraph of the agreement was omitted because it relates <br />to the Abandoned Mine Land Program. This paragraph states "The <br />landowner has an existing responsibility to insure that any <br />abandoned or inactive mine openings located on his/her properties <br />are adequately safeguarded and all present and subsequent <br />landowners are required to maintain the mine closure after the work <br />had' been completed as outlined in C.R.S. 34-240110(1). This <br />responsibility is unchanged by this consent to have these <br />reclamation activities performed." <br />Please call if these changes present a problem. I will attach the <br />last page of signatures to the revised agreement upon your <br />approval. <br />m:\coal\esc\hawk\940131 <br />
