Lochhead <br />EKecuuve Direclor <br />Michael8 Lung <br />Division Direclor <br />On March 13, 1995, the Division received your letter dated March 7, 1995 pertaining to the <br />Golden Eagle Mine. <br />In your letter, you requested information regarding the status of our investigation into the <br />issues raised in your letter of February 6, 1995.

We therefore, <br />provided OSM correct information. A month later at his request, we provided Mitch <br />Rollings of OSM-AFO a copy of a July 7, 1993 letter to Mr. Tatum, This is the letter which <br />initially contained the mistaken distance figure of 750 feet. However, OSM-AFO was aware <br />that 350 feet was the correct distance as evidenced by the fact the OSM-AFO's February 4, <br />
