Boulay <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Division of Reclamation Mining and Safety <br />Department of Natural Resources <br />1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />Re: New Horizon Mine (Permit No. C-1981-008) <br />Permit Renewal Application No. 5 (RN-5) (CHS# 51448) <br />Dear Mr. Boulay: <br />RECEIVED <br />'EC '10 2007 <br />Division w hadamaEon, <br />Mining and Safety <br />Thank you for your correspondence dated November 28, 2007 (received by our office on <br />December 3) regarding the surface coal mining operation referenced above- <br />While your correspondence indicates that this renewal of the current permit will not result in <br />any new disturbed acreage nor would it incorporate additional lands into the permit, we are <br />unable to determine the potential effect of the permit renewal on historic properties because <br />the extent and location of the current permit area for the New Horizon #2 mine is not clear. <br />The most recent map of the permit area in our files dates to 1999. Please submit for our review <br />a map indicating the extent of the New Horizon #2 mine permit area. For our purposes, the <br />appropriate portion of a clearly identified 7.5 minute USGS topographic map is most useful, <br />but any map indicating the extent of the permit area with regard to section boundaries will <br />suffice. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to comment, If we may be of further assistance please contact <br />Greg Wolff, Section 106 Compliance Coordinator, at (303) 866-4674. <br />Sincerely, <br />Georgianna Contiguglia <br />State Historic Preservation Officer <br />GC/GAW <br />1300 BROADWAY DENVER COLORADO 80203 TEL 303/866-3395 FAx 303/866-2711 wwwcoloradohistory-oahp.org
