The application was submitted by Seneca Coal <br />Company, LLC on June 18, 2010, for the Seneca II Mine. <br />The revision will reduce the permitted area of the Seneca II Mine and remove, from the permit boundary, land or <br />mineral rights under your ownership. All lands proposed for removal from the permit area have been permitted by <br />Peabody Sage Creek Mining Company, as part of the Sage Creek Mine (Permit No. C2009-087). Peabody Sage Creek <br />Mining Company has assumed liability for all remaining reclamation work on all of the permitted area being removed <br />from the Seneca II Mine. <br />Any person with an interest which may be adversely affected by the proposed decision may request a formal hearing <br />before the Mined Land Reclamation Board within thirty (30) days of the first publication of this notice by the Division <br />in the Steamboat Pilot. <br />The Surface mine is located approximately 9 miles Southeast of Hayden, Colorado.
