Site 5AL139 was last recorded in 1981 by the Bureau of Reclamation. It was <br />recommended that additional data were needed in order to assess its eligibility for the National Register <br />of Historic Places (NRHP). We recommend that the operator avoid this site or that additional <br />inventory be conducted to determine the effect of the proposed project on this resource. If site <br />avoidance is not possible, we recommend further consultation with our office in order to identify <br />options to avoid, minimize, or mitigate the adverse effect to the sites. <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.duvall(kchs.state.co.us. <br />Sincerely, <br />6&,- <br />4 /'/' <br />Edward C.
