4 _ <br />N <br />~~ ~ MOUNTAIN COAL <br />a. ~ COMPaNVL.L.C. <br />A subsidiary of Arch Wesiem Resoumes, LLC <br />Wes[ Elk Mine <br />P.O. Box 591 <br />5174 Highway 133 <br />SomerscL COS 1434 <br />(970)929-5015 <br />Fax (970)929-5595 <br />Approval from the BLM and CDMG for this pad and drill hole is necessary for us to determine the <br />location and thickness of the M2 parting thought to occur in this azea of the B-Seam. <br />Existing roads will be used as much as possible to access the EEE location. Access will be from State <br />Highway 133 to an existing road and gate that previously accessed the Meadowlark Farm and old ski <br />azea. It is anticipated that less than 2.0 acres of disturbance will occur as a result of the construction of <br />the pad and short road (400') required to access the pad. The length of time to drill and complete the <br />hole is approximately 10 days. After a determination has been made to either abandon or complete the <br />hole as a water monitoring hole, the road and pad will be reclaimed this fall. Water will be supplied to <br />the pad via water truck or flexible hose laid on [he ground. The source of the water will be the North <br />Fork of the Gunnison River either from the mine site or a small pump placed in the river. <br />Please notify me if you have questions regazding this minor revision request. <br />• Si ly, R D _ ' <br />Henry A. azbe <br />Environmental Engineer <br />Enclosures: MR-281 Application <br />cc: W.
