1 <br /> cleared up. The remaining reclamation of disturbed areas will be completed when this issue <br /> is settled, and'we again have permission to enter the property. <br /> The Pioneer Canon Contract was structured to provide payment for performing the backfill <br /> work using onsite materials designated by the Project Manager. Neither IML nor the <br /> Contractor could have anticipated that the landowner (Dr. Corley), would charge a fee for <br /> materials moved from one location on his property to another location on the same <br /> property, and being used to perform beneficial reclamation work in accordance with his <br /> previous written requests. It is a changed condition of the work, and therefor the Contractor <br /> should not have to pay this fee out of his own expense. I instructed the Contractor to <br /> invoice IML for the fee imposed by Dr. Corley, and executed a change order to cover it. <br /> In my opinion, Dr. Corley should not have the right to charge a fee and benefit financially <br /> from Federally funded reclamation work which will benefit his property. Dr. Corley should <br /> be required to return the fee to the IML program, or be found in violation for mining <br /> without a permit, from property which is under the reclamation responsibility of the State. <br /> If you have any other questions regarding this issue, or any others associated with the <br /> Pioneer Canon Project, please contact me, and I will be happy to discuss them with you. <br /> xc Bruce Humphries, Minerals Program Supervisor <br />
