Pineda <br />1845 W.Dartmo'uth Ave Director <br />Denver, Colorado 801104308 <br />Re: M-1991-003 Tomahawk Mine Warranty Increase. <br />Dear Mr. McGraw <br />On April.28, 2010, the: Division sent you a letter requesting an additional warranty in the amount of, <br />$30,764.00, fora total of $70,685.00, based on the 2008 inspection report within 60 days or by June 28, <br />2010. Your site was also inspected while in the area inspecting the DFC ceramics site M-1991-143. The <br />operators.of the DFC ceramics site asked you to look at their operation, since your company showed <br />some interest in succeeding the Ceramics 110 site. <br />The Division. had sent the DFC ceramics site to increase the warranty from the current $5,000.00 to <br />$15,000.00 if 'the site was not succeeded by November 30, 2010. Since that time Robinson Brick has <br />agreed to succeed the DFC Ceramics site permit # M-1991-143 and at a later date submit an amendment <br />to incorporate the entire permit area to the adjacent Robinson brick 112 permit site (M-1991-003.) <br />Since the two operations permit areas are contiguous, the incorporation of the permit area into the 112 <br />operation is possible. If Robinson Brick submits the additional warranty in the amount of $30,764.00, no <br />later than August 28, 2010, the Division will allow Robinson Brick to only submit the current $5000.00 <br />that is held for.permit #M-1991-143, when the succession of operation application is submitted. The <br />Division will not:require Robinson Brick the additional warranty, for the revision. When the permit <br />amendment'revision is submitted, to incorporate the two permits, the Division requests Robinson brick <br />to limit the disturbance associated with both permits not to exceed 20 acres at any given time, without <br />the appropriate revision to the permit. As long as that provision is adhered to the amendment <br />submittal; no additional warranty will be required at that time. <br />If you have questions; please contact me at 303 866 3567 ext 8129. <br />Sincerely, <br />Berhan Keffelew <br />Environme'nta!'Protection Specialist <br />Denver Grand Junction • Durango <br />Office of <br />Active and Inactive Mines
