Pursuant to the requirement of Rule 1. 13.6 of the Rules and Regulations of the Colorado Mined Land
Reclamation Board to inform Counties and Municipalities within two miles of a mining operation of the
intention of mining operators to put their mining operation into a state of temporary cessation of mining,
please be advised that Pete Lien and Sons, Inc., whose address and telephone number are P.O. Box 440,
Rapid City, SD 57709-0440; [phone], has filed a Notice of Temporary Cessation with the Division
of Reclamation, Mining and Safety for the Weaver Quarry mining operation. The mining operation is
located at or near Section 7, Township 9N, Range 69W, 06th Prime Meridian, in Larimer County. The
period of temporary cessation may begin on January 28, 2009 and may last for up to five years from that
date. In addition, the operator may request an extension of temporary cessation for another five year period
at the end of the first five years. The notice contains information pertaining to the reasons for cessation of
the mining operation, a plan for resumption, and the measures taken to comply with reclamation and other
necessary activities related to the performance standards of Rule 3 of the Rules and Regulations in order to
maintain the mine in a non-producing or non-development state.
The receipt of the Notice of Temporary Cessation will be acknowledged in the monthly activity report
attached to the agenda of the February 11-12, 2009 meeting of the Mined Land Reclamation Board unless
one or more of the following conditions occurs:
1. Reclamation or performance standard issues are indicated in the Notice of Temporary
Cessation.
2. Such issues are indicated by a field inspection of the mine site.
3. Such issues are indicated by a review of the mining operation file.
4. Concerns are expressed about the Notice of Temporary Cessation by interested persons.
If one or more of the above conditions occurs, the Division will place the Notice of Temporary Cessation
on the agenda for the February 11-12 2009 meeting of the Mined Land Reclamation Board. During that
meeting, the Board will consider whether or not to accept the Notice. If you have any questions, please
