Martin <br />Executive Director <br />Re: Chambers Pit, M-1979-205, Technical Revision, TR-04, Change to Mine and Reclamation Plan <br />Phasing, Approval. <br />Dear Mr. Langenfeld, <br />The Division of Reclamation, Mining, and Safety (DRMS) received United/ Old Castle's request for a <br />Technical Revision (TR) for the above referenced permit on April 6, 2010. The revision is for the <br />rephrasing of mining, retraction of undisturbed lands from the affected area and contemporaneous <br />reclamation requirements. On May 3, 2010 DRMS staff received clarifications and corrections to <br />requested issues noted on April 19, 2010. It appears all issues have been addressed completely with the <br />response. Therefore staff is pleased to inform United Old Castle that TR-04 is approved. <br />A reclamation liability estimate was not undertaken. The current bond held of $212,000.00 appears to <br />be adequate given no disturbance on site, concurrent reclamation commitments, and a reduction of <br />total affected areas. <br />If you need additional information please contact me at the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety, <br />Grand Junction Field Office, 101 S. 3rd St., Suite 301, Grand Junction, Colorado 81501, or by telephone <br />no. 970.241.1117. <br />Sincerely, <br />"o.
