Sherman <br />Executive Director <br />Dick Wolfe, P.E. <br />Director <br />The Division of Water Resources has reviewed the Blue Ribbon Mine (Permit No. C- <br />1981-047), Technical Revision Application No. 15 (TR-15). The revision proposes to <br />modify the reclamation plan for Ponds 4 and 5 so that only a portion of the pond <br />embankments are backfilled into the ponds. The applicant also intends to add a soil loss <br />comparison into the permit to show that the sediment ponds can be removed. <br />Currently, the SEO has no objection to the revision. <br />if you have any questions, feel free to contact me at this office at (303) 866-3581. <br />Sincerely, <br />Mark J.
