• Savage and Savage <br />Memorandum <br />To: Donald W. MacDonald, Coors Energy Company <br />From: Michael Savage, Savage and Savage, Inc. <br />Date: March 14, 2008 <br />Subject: First Quarter 2008 Pest and Disease Inspection; Keenesburg Mine <br />File #: C-81-028 <br />On March 13, 2008 I conducted an inspection of the reclaimed and revegetated areas, as <br />well as adjacent operational areas at the Keenesburg Mine for evidence of plant pests, <br />noxious weeds, and plant diseases that could affect the re-established vegetation at the <br />Keenesburg Mine. <br />All reclaimed and revegetated areas of the mine, including the 1985, 1986, 1987, 1995, <br />1998 interseedings, 1999, 2000, 2002, and 2003 seedings were inspected by pedestrian <br />and vehicle means. The dugout area, the small cottonwood grove, the sediment pond <br />. bottom and embankments, topsand piles, B Pit, and long-term overburden storage area <br />were also inspected for any potential problem areas. <br />I did not identify any disease conditions at any of the reclaimed and revegetated areas or <br />within the mine site. Nor did I identify any plant pests which had affected the growth of <br />the vegetation during the past growing season. No areas which experienced any <br />infestation or blight were found during the inspection. No patches of noxious weed <br />species were observed, nor were any areas observed where weeds, plant pests, or disease <br />showed a deleterious effect to the live vegetation. <br />C: Keenesburg Pest and Disease Inspection File <br />Danny Kipp, Keenesburg Mine <br />• <br />AHR-2008 -4-
