Jim Schmieding f'' <br />Mined Land Reclamation Board <br />423 Centennial Building <br />1313 Sherman Street <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 Re: NALCO/Lamar, East Pit <br />Your file No. 77-572 <br />Dear Jim <br />This letter is to confirm our phone conversation of this morning. George <br />Gregg, Lamar Pianager, contacted me about mining east of the railroad <br />tracks and asked if a Technical Revision was necessary on this perrzit. As <br />I told you and George, it appears to me that the entire area (77.85~acres) <br />was permitted and bonded. In fact~tl~e permit application projects mining <br />east of the tracks in 1979. <br />Exhibit "D",page S, Mining Plan and Stages' <br />"After Stage 0 is completed in 1978, mining will be conducted in the area <br />east of the railroad." <br />Exhibit "D", page 8, Mining Timetable <br />"The operator estimates a highly variable market over the next Fift~:en Years." <br />Mining is still continuing in Phase 0, but it has now become necessary to <br />also mine east of the railroad in Part 1, Stages III,IV and V to supply <br />fill and base material to the new German bus plant that is being bu:'.lt in <br />Lamar. This is a pleasant thing that causes the highly variable mar};et. <br />It is my opinion from detailed study that the area is permitted and bonded. <br />The only change is a modification of the timetable, and those are only <br />projections and estimates when developed. Since this is the situation, I <br />see no need for a Technical Revision. This letter will keep you informed of <br />NALGO's mining and of their desire to remain in compliance. <br />Cordial- _ ly - <br />Lloyd V~, "Bu~c'k" Barnhart <br />NALCO Consultant <br />cc: VALCO(Lamar <br />
