Martin <br />Executive Director <br />Montrose, CO 80143 <br />Re: Ruby Trust Drilling Project, Notice of Intent No. P - 2009 - 038, Revised Final Reclamation Cost <br />Estimate. ,? <br />Dear Mr. Ponchak: <br />The Division of Reclamation Mining and Safety has recalculated the bond estimate for the above referenced permit <br />application. Staff has calculated the reclamation liability for the proposed prospecting project using information <br />within the application and information submitted by Mr. Charles Ponchak. The revised estimate amount is based on a <br />maximum of 8 drill holes on a maximum of 8 drill sites for a total of 48 holes being drilled at any one time. All other <br />reclamation tasks other than the borehole reclamation costs are unchanged from the original reclamation cost estimate <br />sent on March 30, 2010. <br />Staff's estimate for the proposed reclamation of the site is $109,696.00 for the disturbance that will occur on private <br />and Federal land. Please review the estimate carefully. Should there be any questions or corrections contact staff <br />immediately. <br />If you need additional information, please contact me at the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety, Grand <br />Junction Field Office, 101 S. 3rd St., Suite 301, Grand Junction, Colorado 81501, telephone no. 970.241.2042. <br />Sincerely, <br />Travis Marshall <br />Environmental Protection Specialist, Grand Junction Field Office <br />Cc: Steve Shuey, DRMS <br />Tamara Randall-Parker, U.S.F.S., Ouray Ranger District <br />Ben Crosby, Mount Sneffels Mining Company, LLC <br />Enclosure(s) <br />Office of Office of <br />Mined Land Reclamation Denver • Grand Junction • Durango Active and Inactive Mines
