Hi Kathy-
Thanks for providing MCC's responses. If the responses could be incorporated into a revised permit page (or pages) and
sent to us, then the only technical adequacy issue I see remaining is the SHPO clearance. I believe Shina Duvall at the
Colorado Historical Society is expected back in her office today. I will give her a call, and discuss the project with her
today, if she's available. Hopefully she can provide the clearance by this Friday.
The as-built for the MR-354 Light-use Road, once it is prepared, should be submitted as a Minor Revision to the West Elk
permit. This is so the as-built may serve as the Light-Use Road designs required by our rules. Please provide this
commitment in a revised permit page, and describe in the revised permit page where in the permit (Exhibits, etc) the as-
built will, in the future, be located.
We are preparing the information needed for our Minor Revision Decision Form, and would appreciate your assistance
as discussed below:
• 1 believe the pages of the West Elk Mine permit that (at this stage) are to be revised are 2.05-15, 2.05-16, 2.05-
17, 2.05-28, and 2.05-29. Please let us know if our list agrees with MCC's list. If the revised permit pages
requested in the first part of this e-mail changes this list, let us know that as well.
MCC should propose a method to incorporate the May 5, 2009 Barr Engineering Memorandum (and its
accompanying two Figures) from Paul Swenson, Jed Greenwood, and Brad Dunn to Chris Nyikos and yourself
into the West Elk Permit. This could be done by submitting the memo as a new Exhibit to the permit, or a new
Appendix, or some other such new addendum. Please let us know how this memo and its two figures will be
