Savage and Savage <br />Memorandum <br />To: Donald W. MacDonald, Coors Energy Company <br />From: Michael Savage, Savage and Savage, Inc. <br />Date: Mazch 25, 2005 <br />Subject: First Quarter 2005 Pest and Disease Inspection; Keenesburg Mine <br />File#: C-81-028 <br />On Mazch 17, 2005 I conducted an inspection of the reclaimed and revegetated areas at <br />the Keenesburg Mine for evidence of plant pests or diseases that could affect the re- <br />established vegetation at the Keenesburg Mine. <br />All reclaimed and revegetated areas of the mine, including the 1985, 1986, 1487, 1995, <br />1998 interseedings, 1999, 2000, and 2002 seedings were inspected by pedestrian and <br />vehicle means. The dugout area, the small cottonwood grove, and the B Pit areas were <br />also inspected for any potential weedy invasive species. I did not identify any disease <br />conditions at any of the reclaimed and revegetated areas or within the mine site. Nor did I <br />• identify any plant pests which had affected the growth of the vegetation during the past <br />growing season. No areas which experienced any infestation or blight were found during <br />the inspection. <br />The small clump of tamarisk within the bottom of the B Pit that was sprayed, physically <br />excavated and removed last season has shown several new shoots that will need to be <br />removed again this season. <br />C: Keenesburg Pest and Disease Inspection File <br />Danny Kipp, Keenesburg Mine <br /> <br />Page 49 <br />
