NOTICE OF PROPOSED DECISION <br />The Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety proposes to Approve Technical Revision <br />Application No. 74 (TR-74) for the Colowyo Coal Mine (Permit No. C-1981-019), submitted by <br />Colowyo Coal Company L.P. The Colowyo Coal Company has submitted a Technical Revision for the <br />Colowyo Mine permit to include copies of the as-built drawings for the recently constructed West Taylor <br />and Section 28 Ponds. The as-built drawings are used to certify that the sediment ponds were constructed <br />in accordance with the permitted design and to note any changes that may have occurred in the field. This <br />revision is administrative in nature so there is no proposed change in the mine's disturbance boundary or <br />permit boundary. There will not be any increase in the mine's reclamation liability as a result of this <br />revision. <br />The Colowyo Coal Mine is a surface coal mine located in Moffat County, approximately 28 miles south <br />of Craig, Colorado. Coal interest is Federal, and the surface affected is Federal, state and private land. <br />The permit area encompasses approximately 12,250.95 acres. <br />This proposed decision is based on a finding that the proposed operation will comply with all <br />requirements of the Colorado Surface Coal Mining Reclamation Act, Section 34-33-101, et seq., C.R.S., <br />and the regulations promulgated thereunder. <br />Copies of the proposed decision, including stipulations, are on file for public inspection at the Colorado <br />Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety, Room 215, Centennial Building, 1313 Sherman Street, <br />Denver, Colorado 80203. Persons with an interest that may be adversely affected by the proposed <br />decision may request a formal hearing before the Mined Land Reclamation Board on the proposed <br />decision. Such request must be made within ten (10) days of the initial publication of this notice, must be <br />in writing, and must state with reasonable specificity the reasons for the request and the objections to the <br />proposed decision.
