RE: Bowie No. 2 Mine, Permit No. C-96-083, Bowie Resources LLC Natural Resource Trustee
Succession of Operator No.3, SO-3, Adequacy Review
Dear Mr. Bear:
The Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety (Division) has finished its adequacy review of
Succession of Operator No. 3 (SO-3), submitted by Bowie Resources LLC (BRL) for the Bowie No. 2 Mine.
The Division has the following adequacy review questions:
1. Under Rule 2.03.4(7), the entries on the coal ownership list on proposed revised page 2.03-7 do
not coincide with the entries on the coal ownership list shown on Map 2, Coal Ownership Map.
Please reconcile the two lists.
2. Under Rule 2.03.6(1) on proposed revised page 2.03-12, reference is made to the right of entry to
property owned by the Wayside Farm and Cattle Company. However, this company no longer
appears as a surface owner on proposed revised permit page 2.03-5 or on proposed-revised Map 1,
Surface Ownership Map. In order to avoid any confusion, please add a note to permit page 2.03-12
that explains that the property of the Wayside Farm and Cattle Company is now owned by Norton
Seybert Colorado Holdings, LLC.
3. In order to update the applicant violator system under Rule 2.03.4, please provide a letter from
Bowie Resources LLC that confirms that TK Construction, LLC is no longer the operator for the
Bowie No. 2 Mine. Please include in the letter the date on which TK Construction, LLC
terminated its position as operator of the mine.
If you have any questions, please call me.
Sincerely,
i Josepv J. )?i1 ash
