~~~ <br />July 17, 2003 <br />Jim Bender <br />Rd. 5467 #31 <br />Farmington, NM 87401 <br />Dear Mr. Bender: <br />J{f~, <br />A~ ~ <br /> <br />>~'uis~n o ~~ ~l <br />M;,~~rdJ ~ ~ a ~Y <br />You have asked whether La Plata County would consider allowing the structure approved for the Incas <br />Mine (our project #94-171) to be considered a permanent building. I have reviewed our project file and <br />meeting minutes and can find no reference to the structure as a temporary building or any County <br />requirement to remove the structure and reclaim the site when mining ceases. I have also met with the <br />County Building Director who expressed no concerns. Based on the above information, the County <br />Planning Department has no concern with a revision to your Mining permit to consider the structure <br />"permanent." <br />Please remember that the only permitted use of the structure is in conjunction with the mining operation. <br />Should the mining operation cease, the structure would be required to remain vacant until another use was <br />specifically approved. Given the remote nature of the structure, it is likely that no other uses would be <br />approved. I apologize for the long delay in responding to your request. Please feel free to contact me at the <br />address below if you have any additional questions or concerns. <br />Sincerely, <br />Nancy D. Lawo <br />Planning Director <br />
