As part of the transition to this new <br />company, Grand galley wishes to make the requested '"contribution" <br />to the recovery fund for the endangered species in the Upper <br />Colorado Eiver Basin. Increased depletions are projected because <br />of the expanded activity brought on by a proposed mine plan <br />modification for the McClane Canyon Mine north of Boma, Colorado. <br />The "contribution" for the additional 3.5 acre feet of water <br />depletion has recently been raised from $11.50 per acre foot to <br />511.98 per acre foot. Enclosed is a Cashier's Check in the <br />amount of 541.93 to .pay the "contribution". <br />S have enclosed a.copy of a letter sent to Salt Creek from the <br />USFWS regarding the increase in depletion fees to ensure that <br />credit is applied for the correct project. <br />Please contact me if I can be of assistance. <br />cerely, <br />~L~~lf~~2%~u"~ <br />John M.
