Box 668 <br />Holly, CO 81047 <br />RE: WALKER PTT - M-84-140/WALKER PIT - M-84-141/BERNARD NINE <br />Dear Mr. Garcia: <br />II~~~ <br />DEPARTMENT OF <br />NATURAL <br />RESOURCES <br />Roy Romer <br />Governor <br />lames 5. Lochhead <br />E.ecutive Duector <br />Michael B. Long <br />Uiars~un Director <br />- M-84-134 <br />As we previously discussed, a 110 permit can be converted to a 112 permit, as long ~IS the operator <br />has held the permit for two consecutive years (Rule 1.11.2(1)). <br />Currently, there are no limits to the amount of acreage in a 112 permit. Howeve~ the permitted <br />acreage must be contiguous. <br />If your information is correct, the Bernard Nine Pit can be converted to a 112 permi ,even though <br />the permit area will be three (3) miles long. The Walker Pits, however, do not m t the criteria <br />for contiguous acreage, since, it appears, there will be a one-mile separation betwee the north and <br />south areas. Therefore, you cannot combine both pernits into one 112 permit. Yo may convert <br />each of the 110 permits to a 112 permit, as long as the permitted acreage is Conti ous. <br />You can determine your conversion acreage by standard surveying methods, on an <br />photo, by measuring the center of the cheek bed and the average width of the propose <br />or by any other method, as long as the entire proposed affected land is within the pe. <br />If you have any other questions, please; let me know. <br />Sincerely, ~l • ~~ , n <br />i1 <br />James Dillie <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />JD/gaw <br />ccurate aerial <br />affected land <br />ni[ boundary. <br />M:\oaa\gaw\Cvcu.jd <br />
