Box 229, <br />Boulder, Colorado. It covers the period September 2, 1977 to <br />August 31, 1978. The permit for this mine was approved Septem- <br />ber 2, 1977. <br />During the past year Flatiron has begun the reclamation <br />work in Area A. To meet highway specification requirements <br />mining has proceeded in Area B and the northwestern end of Area <br />C. The expectation that mining in Area A would be completed during <br />this year has been almost fulfilled. About 2.5 acres remain <br />to be mined. This will be accomplished during the next year and <br />reclamation in the form of shaping banks will proceed. Mining <br />and reclamation are proceeding well at the Greeley West Pit. <br />The following questions and answers provide detail on activ- <br />ity at Greeley West Pit. The attached map shows areas affected. <br />1.
