Cattany <br />Division Director <br />Natural Resource Trustee <br />This letter is to summarize the results of Bear Coal Company's (BCC) responses to the <br />Division's letter dated July 3, 2006 concerning outstanding permitting issues at the Bear <br />No. 3 Mine. <br />The Division requested a copy of the current liability insurance certiftcate by July <br />31, 2006. <br />BCC met the submittal deadline. BCC showed a copy of the liability insurance <br />certificate to myself in the field on July 26, 2006. However, I did not bring the <br />insurance certificate copy back to the Division's office. Therefore, at the <br />Division's request on August 7, 2006, BCC faxed a copy to the Division on that <br />same day. However, as noted in the field, the insurance certificate needs to be <br />revised to cross out the words "endeavor to" and "but failure to...or <br />representatives." in the cancellation section. Please provide a copy of the revised <br />insurance certificate when it is available. <br />2. The Division requested a response, by July 31, 2006, to its adequacy review letter <br />dated December 27, 2006 for the 2004 Annual Hydrology Report (AHR). The <br />Division also requested the submittal of the 200.1 AHR by Judy 31, 2006. <br />BCC met the submittal deadline. In a letter dated July 25, 2006 and received at <br />the Division on July 27, 2006, BCC submitted a response to the Division's <br />adequacy review letter for the 2004 AHR. In addition, BCC submitted two copies <br />of the 2005 AHR, received at the Division on July 27, 2006. The Division has not <br />finished its review of either BCC's 2004 AHR response letter or the 2005 AHR. <br />Office of Office of <br />Mined Land Reclamation Active and Inactive Mines <br />
