All reviews <br /> and comment periods as provided in the Act and Regulations promulgated <br /> thereunder initiate from this day of filing. <br /> The applicant proposes to revise underground coal mining operations at the <br /> Golden Eagle Mine. The technical revision addresses demonstrations for four <br /> small area exemptions. Demonstrations must be provided to show that the <br /> runoff from these four areas can meet effluent standards. <br /> The Golden Eagle permit area is located approximately 20 miles west of <br /> Trinidad, Colorado, and is described as follows: <br /> Sections 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 of Township 33 <br /> South, Range 67 West; projected Sections 27, 28, 29, 30, <br /> 31 , 32, 33 and 34 of Township 33 South, Range 67 West; <br /> and projected Sections 3 and 4 of Township 34 South, <br /> Range 67 West. <br /> Projected sections are partially or fully projected by <br /> Basin Resources due to the unsurveyed nature of the <br /> Maxwell Land Grant. <br /> The above-mentioned tracts of land are shown on the USGS 7.5 minute Quadrangle <br /> maps of Vigil , Weston, Tercio and Little Pine Canyon. <br /> Because the above referenced technical revision application might alter <br /> previously approved permit conditions or mitigation measures , we are <br /> requesting your agency' s evaluation of the proposal as it relates to fish and <br /> wildlife considerations , including potential impacts to threatened or <br /> endangered species . <br />
