Date: April 1, 2003 <br />To: Rick Mills <br />From: Janet Bi s <br />Re: 2002 AR iew, Eagle Mine Complex, C-1981-044 <br />I have reviewed RAG-Empire Corporation's 2002 Annual Reclamation Report. RAG-EC reports that <br />no reclamation activities occurred during 2002. No grading, topsoil replacement or seeding occurred <br />during 2002 and no weed control or rill and Gully repair occurred based upon the provided report. <br />DMG Inspection report, dated June 26, 2002 noted Russian ICnapweed infestations and evidence that <br />some of the patches had been treated with chemical. DMG's November 12, 2002 inspection report <br />documented temporary sealing of the SA portal, and removal of shields and material from the yard area. <br />Weed control measures, rill and gully repairs, and any augmentation practices need to be reported in the <br />Annual Reclamation report. Sealing of portals and removal equipment from the yard area warrant <br />mention in Annual Reclamation reports to document work conducted and to document reclamation <br />liability changes. RAG-EC needs to include this information in the Annual Reclamation Report. An <br />addendum to the submitted report would be acceptable. RAG-EC needs to supply a map or a rough <br />sketch of areas where weed control measures have been implemented is requested to track the <br />effectiveness of the weed control plan and efforts <br />Rule 2.04.13: Annual Reclamation Report: 2002 <br />1) Due date: Feb 15: Submitted: 2/19/2003 <br />a) Permit No.: C-1981-044 Eagle Mine Complex <br />Pemittee: RAG Empire Corporation <br />Address: 29515 RCR #27 <br />Oak Creek, CO 80467 <br />b) Location of new disturbances: 0 <br /># Acres disturbed in last year: 0 <br />c} Location of this years Regrade: 0 <br /># Acres backfilled this year: 0 <br />d) Location of areas topsoiled in past year: <br /># Acres topsoiled in last year: <br />e) Location of areas seeded: 0 <br />Seed mixes used: 0 <br /># Acres seeded: 0 <br />Augmentation: No comments included <br />Weed control: No comments included <br />~ Location ,number of acres, and date of planting of all previously vegetated areas: 258.8 acres <br />2) Additional info as committed to in the permit: No additional information included <br />RAG-EC references the Annual Reclamation Status Map, updated 1/97 as the most current map. <br />A copy of this map was submitted with the 2001 ARR.
