€,J OFFICE of ARCHAEOLOGY and HISTORIC PRESERVATION <br />October 19, 2009 <br />G. Russell Means <br />Environmental Projection Specialist <br />Division of Reclamation, Mining, & Safety <br />1313 Sherman Street, Rm. 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />Re: Elam Construction, Inc., Gehrman Pit (File No. M-2009-078) (CHS #55833) <br />Dear Mr. Means: <br />RLECU?VELLI <br />.? 0'd 2a <br /> <br />Thank you for your correspondence dated October 14, 2009 (received by our office on October 16, <br />2009) regarding the subject project. <br />A search of the Colorado Cultural Resource Inventory database indicated that at least one cultural <br />resource inventory has been conducted in the vicinity of the proposed permit area, however no historic <br />properties have been recorded therein. Our files contain incomplete information for this area, as most <br />of Colorado has not yet been inventoried for cultural resources. As a result, there is the possibility that <br />as yet unidentified cultural resources exist within the proposed permit area. <br />Should human remains be discovered during mining activities, the requirements under State law CRS <br />24-80 part 13 apply and must be followed. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to comment. If we may be of further assistance, please contact Shina <br />duVall, Section 106 Compliance Manager, at (303) 866-4674 or shina.duvalla,chs.state. CO.us. <br />Sincerely, <br />Edward C.
