RE: Terror Creek Loadout, Permit No. C-83-059, Terror Creek Company
Permit Renewal No. 5, Third Adequacy Review Letter
Dear Mr. Kiger:
The following is the status of the remaining adequacy review issues for Permit Renewal No. 5 for the
Terror Creek Loadout. The Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety's (Division) adequacy review
letter dated April 9, 2008, detailed the resolution of the other issues. Also included in this letter is new
question number 8, an issue that was inadvertently left out of previous Division letters.
Section 2.05.4, Reclamation Plan
6. The Division has not finished its review of the reclamation cost estimate for RN-S. When finished,
a copy of the reclamation cost estimate worksheets will be sent to Oxbow for its review.
The Division has no further concerns. The cost estimate was sent to Oxbow in the Division's
adequacy review letter dated April 9, 2008 and totaled $276,095.00, an increase of $12,097.00
over the current bond liability of $263,998.00. In an e-mail response dated April 14, 2008, Oxbow
accepted the Division's estimate. The Division holds a reclamation bond of $278,000.00 so no
additional bond needs to be submitted.
Section 2.0.7.6, Criteria for Review of Permit Applications for Permit Approval or Denial
7. As required in Section 2.07.6(1)(b), the Division will be conducting a computer check of the
Applicant Violator System (A VS) and will inform the operator of the results. The Division will
conduct additional AVS checks before the permit renewal is final.
The Division has conducted an AVS check of the Identification of Interests information supplied
in the Oxbow submittal dated April 2, 2008. There appear to be three typos on revised page
2.03Ra. Under the heading "Officers of Oxbow Carbon & Minerals Holdings, Inc.", it appears that
William I. Koch should be listed as President and Chief Executive Officer, Zachary K. Shipley as
Treasurer and Richard P. Callahan as Secretary. Currently, all three are listed as Directors under
the "Officers..." heading. Please revise appropriately.
