Applegate <br />Group, Inc. <br />August 26, 2009 <br />Mrs. Mary Rodriguez <br />Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety <br />1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />Re: Bucklen Equipment Company, Inc.; Annual Report for Permit No M-1982-131 <br />Dear Mrs. Rodriguez: <br />Please find an enclosed site map and the signed annual report form for the September 20, 2009 <br />Bucklen Equipment Company Annual Report. A check for $791 is also enclosed to cover the <br />annual report fee. <br />This annual report covers the time period from September 21, 2008 to September 20, 2009. <br />Mining activities during the last year have been confined to an area in the southern portion of the <br />pit (see attached map). Recent mining activities have generally continued in a westerly direction. <br />Mining activities during the upcoming year will continue to be in the southern portion of the pit. <br />Reclamation activities are ongoing. Backfilling and sloping of the center section of the eastern <br />pit boundary is in progress (see attached map). Reclamation in this area has progressed in a <br />northerly direction. Backfilling of the previously mined southeastern portion of the pit boundary <br />is also in progress (see attached map). The bottom of the pit is currently being used for <br />processing and stockpiling. As the final configuration of the pit lake is reached, the banks will <br />continue to be rough graded to achieve appropriate slopes. <br />Please call me at (303)452-6611 if you have any questions or need additional information. <br />Sincerely, <br />Applegate Group, Inc <br />Jared Dains, E.I. <br />nS <br />Water Resource Engineer <br />JMD/ta <br />Ends. <br />cc: Lori Bucklen, Bucklen Equipment Company <br />AG File #07-148 <br />NA07148 Bucklen Annual ReporMisciplines (Technical)\Mine Planning\Report\2009 Bucklen Annual Report.docx <br />1499 West 120th Avenue, Suite 200 (303) 452-6611 • Fax (303) 452-2759 <br />Denver, Colorado 80234-2759 www.applegategroup.com
