The Corporate Surety Bond Number is 6510715. <br />Upon further evaluation of the project, it was determined that the technical, logistical, and <br />economic issues related to this project render it infeasible at this time. Therefore, CCR has <br />decided to cancel the project. There was no disturbance or drilling activity by CCR on the <br />site. All disturbances were preexisting by the Hill Ranch, landowner, and Pioneer Energy, <br />the CBM operator. Since no disturbance or drilling activity was conducted by CCR, the <br />release of the full bond amount of $44,832 is requested. <br />CCR thanks CDRMS for their timely assistance and consideration in processing the original <br />NOI application and this request. Upon review of this request, please direct any comments, <br />questions or approval documents to my attention. <br />Sincerely, <br />(for Colorado Coal Resources, LLC) <br />Vern R.
