Long <br />Division Dueclo~ <br />On November 8, 1993, the Division received a letter, dated <br />November 5, 1993, from the Colorado Division of Wildlife. The <br />letter was prompted by the permit renewal for the two mines <br />referenced above. This letter was faxed to Basin Resources by <br />this Division on November 24, 1993, with a hard copy sent on <br />December 6, 1993. <br />In this letter, DOw recommended that an aquatic sampling program <br />be implemented every two or three years along that portion of the <br />Purgatoire River that passes through Hasin's mine property. In <br />January of 1994 I talked with Dave Lovell, Wildlife Biologist for <br />DOW. He explained that DOW would like to see one of three <br />actions taken: 1) Basin Resources would implement the aquatic <br />sampling program, using established protocol and sending the <br />results to DOW, or 2) allow DOW to perform the sampling program, <br />with Basin giving permission for DOW to have access to the <br />Purgatoire River from Basin's land or 3) have Basin state in <br />writing that Basin does not wish to have any aquatic sampling <br />program. <br />This Division would like Basin Resources to seriously consider <br />the three options presented in this letter, and to write back to <br />us explaining the company's position in this matter. <br />
