• Conclusions <br />Coal musing operations began at Lorencito during the fourth quarter of 2001 and <br />coal extraction terminated in July 2002. The mine is currently completing final <br />reclamation activities and Phase I release has been granted for the area of active <br />mining. Phase III release has been granted for the Loadout area. <br />Monitoring activities during 2008 occurred according to plan requirements. <br />Monitoring to date does not indicate any impacts to local or regional water resources <br />from mining. Changes in water quality over the past two years may likely be <br />attributed to water discharged into drainages by coal bed methane development in <br />Lorencito Canyon and side canyon tributaries. <br />• <br />40- <br />9
