MANAGEMENT <br />The DRMS's letter dated August 11, 2009 transmitted it adequacy comments regarding <br />Snowcap's 2008 Annual Reclamation Report. Following are Snowcap's responses to the <br />DRMS's comments and concerns: <br />1. There appears to be an error in reporting the values for acreage in long- <br />term mining or reclamation facilities on both the 2007 and 2008 <br />standardized forms. The standardized form was developed so that every <br />acre of disturbance is accounted for and falls into one of three <br />categories...... Please correct these values and resubmit the 2007 and 2008 <br />standardized reports forms, so that we can correct these values in our <br />tracking system. <br />SCC - Enclosed are revised Annual Reclamation Reports for Years 2007 and <br />2008 correcting the "Acreage in long-term mining or reclamation facilities". <br />Please contact me if you should have any questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />Tonya K. Hammond <br />Owner's Representative - Snowcap Coal Company, Inc. <br />Enclosure <br />cc: DRMS Grand Junction Office <br />SCC File
