• Savage and Savage <br />Memorandum <br />To: Donald W. MacDonald, Coors Energy Company <br />From: Michael Savage, Savage and Savage, Inc. <br />Date: July 23, 2004 <br />Subject: Third Quarter 2003 Pest and Disease Inspection; Keenesburg Mine <br />File #: C-81-028 <br />On July 22, 2004 we conducted an inspection of the reclaimed and revegetated azeas 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 azeas of the mine, including the 1985, 1986, 1987, 1995, <br />1998 interseedings, 1999, 2000, 2002, and 2003 seedings were inspected by pedestrian <br />and vehicle means. No disease conditions at any ofthe reclaimed and revegetated areas or <br />within the mine site were observed. No plant pests which had affected the growth of the <br />. vegetation during the past growing season were encountered. No azeas which <br />experienced any noxious weed infestation or blight were found during the inspection. <br />The mine site received more precipitation during June than last yeaz though there has been <br />no precipitation in July. Significant growth of cool season species (particulazly Indian <br />ricegrass) was observed in the majority of revegetated azeas. Dry conditions have resulted <br />in shorter overall size and eazlier anthesis in some individuals in the warm season <br />component in revegetated azeas at this point in the growing season. <br />C: Keenesburg Pest and Disease Inspection File <br />Danny Kipp, Keenesburg Mine <br /> <br />Page 44 <br />
