Sherman <br />Executive Director <br />Ronald W. Cattany <br />Division Director <br />Natural Resource Trustee <br />On November 20, 2008, the Division found your request for release of 51.6 acres and reduction in <br />the amount of financial warranty (SR-01) for the Hay Camp Pit complete for the purposes of filing. <br />Pursuant to Rule 4.17.2(2), the Division is required to conduct an inspection of the site, weather <br />permitting, within 60 days of filing the release request to verify completion of reclamation. <br />Unfortunately, the Division has not been able to inspect the site due to winter storms and snow <br />cover. Additionally, the vegetation is dormant and the Division must verify the successful <br />establishment of vegetative cover prior to approving release of acreage for completion of <br />reclamation. Therefore, pursuant to Rule 4.17.2(2), the Division has extended the decision <br />deadline for SR-01 and will inspect the site as soon as weather conditions allow. <br />Please contact me at the Division's office in Durango at 691 County Road 233, Suite A-2, <br />Durango, CO 81301, phone (970) 247-5469, if you have any questions. <br />r <br />Sincerely, <br />Wallace H.
