<br />Mine Development Inc. <br />Neglected Mine Project <br />3319 E 4'k Av. <br />Durango, Colo. 81301 <br />At <br />J "o r <br />Re. Reclamation of disturbed area: Technical revision (TR-3) <br />Dear Mr. Oswald, <br />RoCEIVED <br />JAN 13 2009 <br />Division of Reclamation, <br />Mining and Safety <br />F i ? A v ve"S?o wi ? <br />04- <br />At the conclusion of the Neglected Mine Project or the termination of the leaching <br />portion of the project the following will be done. <br />All stored chemicals will be removed from the site. There will be no burial of any <br />bulk chemicals on the site. If any chemicals are left over after the leaching process is <br />concluded they will either be sold back to the supplier, sold to another operator or taken <br />to a hazmat center for disposal. <br />All of the mixing tanks, filters, hoses, piping, pumps, electrical lines, air lines, timber <br />used for support and foundation etc. will be detoxified and will be removed from the site <br />via flat bed trailer and pick up truck. The sand and road base material used to cover the <br />liner will be removed and placed in the existing tailings pond area for reclamation. The <br />pond liner will be salvaged if possible and if not it will be folded and placed in the <br />existing tailings pond for reclamation. The berm surrounding the leaching area will be' flattened and graded level. There is no plan at the present to replant this area unless the <br />entire Neglected Mine project is in reclamation phase, if not this area will be returned to a <br />storage area for equipment. <br />I estimate that it will take approx. 4 trips with the pick up and flat bed trailer to <br />remove the entire leach plant from the site, and an additional day of work with a back hoe <br />to remove the base material and level the site. Total days needed for reclamation, approx. <br />(4); estimated total costs for reclamation are between $1500.00 and $2000.00. <br />If you have any questions please contact me. <br />Sincerely, <br />Harold E.
