Box 449 Florence, CO 80226 Aen s.ns.,, E.ecm~.e o~.e, ~~~~ RE: West Pit Diversion Ditch :N ¢hael0 Long Dim,iun DneUin Dear Mr. Acre, As you are aware, the Division of Minerals and Geology is conducting reclamation activity in the G.E.C. west Pit Area. The original access road to the Weat Pit hae been reclaimed by the contractor performing work at the G.E.C. East Pit under the direction of AML. The purpose of this letter is to define the work to be conducted in the West Pit as well as access through the Southfield Mine across Magpie Creek Diversion. Phil Kessler has estimated a cost to cross and repair Magpie Creek Diversion, and this cost will be included in the scope of work. The Division proposes to access the West Pit through the Southfield Mine and across Magpie Creek Diversion off of light use road Y8. The Diversion will be modified to allow for passage of equipment to the West Pit. During the period of interruption in Magpie Creek, the Division will assume responsibility for the condition and maintenance of the drainage area affected as these factors pertain to the Colorado Coal Regulations. The Division will restore the affected area of Magpie Creek Diversion to the pre- construction condition, as specified in the Southfield Permit. Upon completion of the West Pit Diversion, the Division will meet with Energy Fuels in the field for the purpose of agreeing that the affected area of Magpie Creek Diversion meets the specifications set forth in the permit. Thereafter, the Division will return responsibility of the affected area of Magpie Creek Diversion to Energy Fuels. The Contractor is required to provide liability insurance and workmans compensation insurance as condition of being awarded the reclamation contract per Division of Contracting requirements. These contingencies will cover potential liabilities associated with the reclamation project. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call Sincerely, Steven G.
