RE: Notice of Intent to Conduct Prospecting; DRMS File # P-2009-028; Spring
Gulch; Adequacy Review and Request for Additional Information
Dear Mr. Winters:
The Division received your Notice of Intent to Conduct Prospecting on September 09,
2009. The application is substantially incomplete and inadequate with a couple of small
exceptions. This notice will continue to be deficient until a significant effort is
undertaken to accurately and completely fill out the notice. Following is a list of these
deficiencies that will require the submittal of additional information or clarification of the
submitted information. The responses need to fully address each section of the Notice of
Intent Application and the appropriate sections. of Rule 5 and Rule 3 of the Mineral Rules
and Regulations of the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Board for Hard Rock, Metal
and Designated Mining Operations. If you do not adequately respond to the following
concerns that have been identified as incomplete or inadequate within 60 days, the notice
will be terminated.
General Comments
All sections of the Notice of Intent Form must be addressed in appropriate detail to allow
the Division to fully evaluate the proposed environmental impacts of the prospecting and
reclamation activities and be able to adequately calculate the required financial warranty
associated with those activities. It is quite obvious from our inspection that a significant
amount of surface disturbance that is related to your prospecting activities has already
occurred on your site including road construction, adit/tunnel development, water
diversion, storage and pumping, ore processing, processing waste disposal, building
construction, excavations, etc. All of these activities must be described in the appropriate
sections of the Notice of Intent Form and included on a map that accurately depicts these
activities.
