The state of Colorado is <br />delegated the permritting and enforcement of permits issued under the federal Clean Water Act. <br />The Division has not yet received an application for either process water or stormwater discharges from <br />the site in question. This is not unusual as most sites will get the Division of Minerals aced Geology's <br />approval before applying for a discharge permit. Unless a permit is applied far or an unauthorizod <br />discharge occurs, the Water Quality Control Divisiom has no authority over this site. <br />Most, if not all your conceros, are items which the Division of Minerals and Geology will evaluate in <br />approving the mining permit for the site. Your letter has ban forwarded to them. It is suggested that you <br />contact them with your conccros. <br />The Division will factor in the comments we received from you should the Company apply for a <br />discharge permit. Please contact me with any questions at (303) 692-3608. <br />Sincerely, <br />~' a~,~.,,,_ <br />Patricia A.
