Technical Revision to the New Horizon Mine Permit no. C-81-008 by Western <br />Fuels-Colorado (WFC) in Nucla, CO. <br />Dear Sirs: <br />I gm writing this letter as a formal protest to the application for a Technical Revision to the New <br />I4orizon Mine Permit No. C-81-008 Section 2.05.4(2)e. This Technical revision covers the <br />change in Success Standards in Irrigated pasture from a standard to a reference area. <br />We are objecting to what the revision actually contains and the properties involved I have <br />bought many I Ws of tons of alfalfa hay fzomma the Morgan property which is the property this <br />revision affects. This property is prime alfalfa farmland not pasture lands. The reason I buy <br />from them is they sell dairy quality alfalfa with NO grass. This alfalfa is very high protein <br />content and it is the only straight Alfalih that I know of sold. in this part of the country. 1, along <br />with many others have bought this hay for many years. I feel very strong that the land needs <br />to be put back in the condition that it is or better. The production of straight alfalfa is very <br />limited in this area and we need to be able to keep buying alfalfa from the Morgan ranch not <br />a grass mix or just pasture land where there is little or no production. <br />We depend on this hay every year. <br />Tbank you, <br /> <br />i <br /> <br />20
