Brown <br />Senior Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety <br />1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />This letter is in support of Western Fuels Mining in the Nucla area. <br />WsIvIRL) <br />AUG 16zuiu <br />Owsw of <br />? a "' <br />Where they have mined and reclaimed the land for farming the land has produced more <br />than it had originally. We feel that the mine has tried hard to reclaim the land and have <br />done a good job. <br />We live in an area where our irrigation water sometimes gets very low in the later part of <br />the summer but the area has been farmed for over 100 years and the farmers have learned <br />how to manage with what water they have to irrigate with and we feel that they will <br />continue to manage in the future when the property is turned back to the owners. <br />Western Fuels has provided jobs for the workers and has helped the economy in the <br />Nucla area. We would like for them to be able to continue mining in the area. <br />Sincerely, <br />David H. Chiles <br />a- <br />Sylvia Carleen Chiles
