RECLAMATION

Bill Ritter, Jr.
Governor
James B. Martin
Executive Director
The Division's Denver office received the above-named permit amendment application on May 3, 2010, when it was
then routed to our Durango field office for an initial completeness review prior to a technical adequacy review. Our
completeness review reveals that there are a couple items that must be provided, and until they are received the
amendment cannot be considered complete and the Division's technical review may not begin. Please provide or
revise, therefore, the following items:
Application Form
Blanks number one, six and seven, on page one of the application, identify the applicant/operator and owner as "Mount
Sneffels Mining Co. LLC". This is also how the applicant/operator is identified on page two, and how it was signed on
page seven. Please note that though it is consistent throughout the application, this does not perfectly match the
operator's full name, as approved.
In the Succession of Operator SO-01, which was approved in 2007, the operator's name is documented to be slightly
different, as "Mount Sneffels Mining Company, LLC". The Colorado. Secretary of State's Business Section lists
"Mount Sneffels Mining Company, LLC" as a licensed entity in good standing. This is considered to be the correct
and complete name, and this is exactly how it should appear in all amendment application documents (including
punctuation).
On page seven, the blank for the date above the signature line, should also be filled in when this is re-signed and re-
notarized.
Please resubmit the application form with all references to the operator corrected as described above. (Please note:
The detail of correct and consistent operator name will be equally important when the bond documents are submitted.)
Exhibit E - Mining and Reclamation Maps (Rule 6.3.5)
There are several copies of the map sheet provided, but they are all essentially the same map. The reclamation map
depicts multiple structures as remaining onsite after reclamation. Given that the post-mining land use is being
amended to "general agriculture," please clarify that the reclamation map that was submitted was, in fact, intended to
be the reclamation map. (If you do verify that it is the reclamation map, please note that the features shown thereon
will be questioned as to their appropriateness during our technical adequacy review.)
Filing of Additional Materials with the County Clerk and :[recorder
Please ensure that the materials that you submit in response to this letter are also filed for public review at the county,
as the initial materials were, and a receipt obtained therefor.
