Lochhead <br />E aecutive Dueaor <br />M¢hael B. Long <br />Division Director <br />This letter is written as follow-up to our meetings of June 11, 1996 and June 12, 1996. During <br />the afternoon of June 11, 1996, Mike Boulay (DMG) and I met with Larry Mautz at the Mautz <br />residence to discuss Mautz' concerns regarding the West Elk Mine operation. Also, on <br />June 12, 1996, Mike Boulay and I visited the Mautz cabin with Norm Avery (MCC) and <br />Elaine Mautz. <br />It is our understanding that, at this time, your primary concern is regarding damage to the cabin, <br />and the possible relationship between the damage and subsidence resulting from the mining <br />activities at the West Elk Mine. During the visit to the cabin, Elaine Mautz showed us the areas <br />of concern, and these included such features as foundation cracking, drywall cracking, gaps <br />between the flour slab and the foundation, and doors which do not function properly. Mrs. Mautz <br />indicated that certain repairs previously implemented by Mountain Coal Company require additional <br />work. <br />During our meeting of June 12, 1996, we agreed that a letter would be provided by the Mautz' to <br />DMG which details those areas of damage which the Mautz' believe occurred as a result of <br />subsidence, and which should be repaired by MCC. Please provide your detailed damage <br />itemization as soon as possible so that we may pursue a resolution to [his matter. <br />We look forward to your response and please call, if you have questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />., <br />~: ' <br />d A.
