The 60- <br />day deadline occurred on February 8, 2010 and the Operator has not provided the information required by the <br />Corrective Actions of Violation MV-2009-035. <br />Pursuant to C.R.S. 34-32-124(1), the Division believes this is in violation of the Colorado Mined Land <br />Reclamation Act for failure to comply with the Corrective Actions of Violation MV-2009-035. Therefore, the <br />Division has found reason to believe a violation exists to the Law and has scheduled this matter before the <br />Mined Land Reclamation Board (Board). <br />A Formal Board Hearing will be held during the April 14-15, 2010 Board meeting for consideration of a possible <br />violation. The hearing will be held at 1313 Sherman Street, Room 318, Denver, Colorado, beginning at 9:00 <br />a.m. or as soon thereafter as the matter can be considered. At that hearing you will have the opportunity to <br />be represented and heard. It will be reiterated that there is reason to believe that you are in violation of the <br />provisions noted above. <br />If the Board finds a violation at this hearing, it may issue a Cease and Desist Order and assess a Civil Penalty in <br />the amount of $50 to $200 for each day of violation. Additionally, pursuant to C.R.S. 34-32-118(1)(a), the <br />Board may forfeit the $38,209 financial warranty.
