Sherman <br />Executive Director <br />Mike Boulay Ronald W. Cattany <br />Division Director <br />Joe Dudash Natural Resource Trustee <br />Bowie No. 2 ine, Permit No. C-1996-083, Bowie Resources LLC <br />Technical Revision No. 53, Monitoring Well and Dewatering Well, <br />Request for Assistance <br />I am requesting your assistance in the review of Technical Revision No. 53 (TR-53) for <br />the Bowie No. 2 Mine, submitted by Bowie Resources LLC (BRL). In TR-53, BRL is <br />proposing to drill one monitoring well into the old Bowie No. 2 D-seam workings to see <br />if water has accumulated there. BRL wants to mine the B-seam underneath the D-seam <br />workings but has to get rid of any water in the workings above the B-seam. If water is <br />found, the dewatering well will be drilled and used to pump out the mine water and <br />discharge directly into Hubbard Creek, provided the water quality standards are met. <br />The TR-53 cover letter is in the Laserfiche system. I will fax you the two proposed <br />revised pages and a map section that shows the location of the drill site. This material <br />was originally submitted under Minor Revision No. 85. The Division decided that a <br />technical revision was more appropriate so MR-85 was withdrawn and resubmitted as <br />TR-53. Therefore, the designation of MR-85 appears on some of the TR-53 information. <br />The Division's adequacy review letter is due on Monday, February 25, 2008. If I could <br />get your review memo by Thursday, February 21, 2008, that would be great. If you need <br />anything else, please let me know. Thanks for your assistance! <br />cc: Sandy Brown <br />c:/word/bowie2/tr5 3 memo 1 <br />Office of Office of <br />Mined Land Reclamation Denver • Grand Junction • Durango Active and Inactive Mines
