5731 Stale Highway 13 <br />Meeker, Colorado 87841 <br />(303824.4451 <br />March 3, 1986 <br />Ms. Candace M. Thompson <br />Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Division <br />423 Centennial Building <br />1313 Sherman Street <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />SUBJECT: Technical Revision Application <br />Streeter Fill Status Change <br />Colorado Permit No. C-019-81 <br />Dear Ms. Thompson: <br />Colowyo is submitting the following information as a Technical Revision <br />to our Permit No. C-019-81. <br />• The Technical Revision is submitted as a request to change the status of <br />the Streeter Fill from that of an Experimental Practice to that of a Standard Prac- <br />tice satisfying the MLRD regulations in Section 4.09 Disposal of Excess Spoil and <br />Underground Waste. <br />The basis for the request is: 1) changes in OSM regulations pertaining <br />to excess spoil fills since the initial application for an Experimental Practice on <br />September 4, 1979, and 2) a motion by the Mined Land Reclamation Board on August <br />26, 1982 when the Experimental Practice application was approved that the Experi- <br />mental Practice be deemed appropriate as standard practice for the Streeter Fill if <br />and when the regulations changed. <br />The historical facts affecting the Streeter Fill are well known but are <br />important to recall when considering this request for a Technical Revision. The <br />fallowing chronological list of events concerning the present status is offered for <br />your review. <br />• <br />January, 1977 The construction of the Streeter Fill began under an interim <br />approval from USGS. <br />
