Notice of the proposed decision will be published in the Delta County <br />Independent as soon as possible. The first publication will initiate the thirty (30) day public comment period for <br />the Division's decision. <br />Documentation must be submitted to the Division demonstrating that a copy of the approved revision application <br />was sent to the Office of Surface Mining and the Bureau of Land Management. The material should be sent within <br />15 days of final approval. <br />Please be advised that federal mine plan approval needs to be obtained from the Office of Surface Mining <br />Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM). OSM approval, in addition to State permit approval, is required, before <br />operations affecting federal coal may commence. <br />Please refer to the Performance Bond heading on the enclosed proposed decision form. If the amount of Bond <br />Held equals or exceeds the Revised Liability, you need not submit additional bond. However, if the Revised <br />Liability exceeds the Bond Held, please submit additional bond or rider to your existing bond that equals or <br />exceeds the Revised Liability. This Permit Revision must not be implemented until this proposed decision <br />becomes final and until any required increase in bond is submitted to and approved by the Division. <br />If you have any questions, please contact me. <br />Sincerely, <br />Josep J. dash <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Enclosure(s) <br />cc: Jim Stover, J.E.
