<br /> <br />May 22, 2000 <br />Mr. <br />Division of Minerals and Geology <br />Department of Natural Resources <br />1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 <br />RE: Sealing the Staley -Gordon Mine <br />Deaz <br />-iiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiii <br />i. <br /> <br />Blue Mountain Energy, Inc. will be reclaimit:g the Ventilation Entry/East Portals of the <br />Deserado Mine this summer. In the process vehicular access to the two old abandoned <br />Staley -Gordon portals will be eliminated. Our activity in the immediate area will cease <br />and the old mine openings could become a threat to public safety. <br />If the Division wishes to seal these abandoned mine openings BME would be willing to <br />oversee the work at this time. We only ask that the direct costs associated with the <br />sealing project be funded through the Inactive Mine Reclamation Program. The Division <br />would be responsible for specifying the type and extent of the seal. <br />Photos of these two portalsattached for your reference. These mine openings would <br />be much easier to properly seal before vehicular access is removed from the site. <br />If you have any questions please call me at (970)675-43 <br />L~~~ <br />
