STATE OF COLORADO <br />DIVISION OF RECLAMATION, MINING AND SAFETY <br />Department of Natural Resources <br />6;9"- <br />1313 Sherman St., Room 215 <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 <br />Phone: (303) 866-3567 <br />FAX: (303) 832-8106 <br />August 3, 2009 <br />RECEN" <br />Orvie Zimmerman <br />Blue Jet Mining, Inc. <br />P.O. Box 181 <br />Craig, Colorado 81626 <br />AUG 1 1 2009 <br />Division of Reclamation. <br />Mining and Safety <br />Re: Blue Jet Mine, Permit No. M-1978-135HR, Inspection Problem Resolution. <br />Dear Mr. Zimmerman, <br />COLORADO <br />D I V I S I ON OF <br />RECLAMATION <br />MINING <br />SAFETY <br />Bill Ritter, Jr. <br />Governor <br />Harris D. Sherman <br />Executive Director <br />Ronald W. Cattany <br />Division Director <br />Natural Resource Trustee <br />Thank you for your prompt response to the issues noted in the June 23, 2009 inspector report from the <br />Division. Please confirm your contact phone number is correct. The last Annual Report submitted by <br />you has 970-824-6467. Staff called this number twice and did not receive an answering machine so <br />moved forward with visiting the site with other activities in the area. <br />From the pictures it appears you are addressing the thistle problem on site. Blue Jet is not alone in <br />fighting thistle in the area and it is important that the Division has accurate records of treatment when <br />the time comes for any release requests. Once Blue Jet has met with local control people and gained a <br />plan it should submit it to the Division as a Technical Revision. Staff considers the issue resolved for <br />now. But please be aware that should weeds continue to be a problem a technical revision shall be <br />required to address a full blown weed abatement program. <br />Pictures also note that the old concentrator and barrels are in the process of being removed. It is highly <br />recommended that these areas be seeded in mid October as part of the reclamation of the site. Please <br />be sure to include these activities in your annual report. Sampling, reclamation and maintenance are all <br />considered valid activities to show permit activity. The map shows an area outside the permit boundary <br />which was reseeded. Original maps are somewhat sketchy by today's standards but this area appears to <br />be outside the approved boundaries. Please be sure to explain any activities outside the approved <br />boundaries. The issues of the map and current reclamation are considered resolved. <br />Finally thank you for the information on the mine and its deposits. Please note however that while the <br />information is interesting it is more of a prospectus than an actual plan. Blue Jet must be diligent in its <br />active upkeep of the mine site to conform to the Act and Rules. <br />Office of <br />Office of <br />Mined Land Reclamation Denver • Grand Junction • Durango Active and Inactive Mines
