The Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety hereby issues notice, in accordance with Title 34, Article 33,
Section 118, Paragraph 3, of the Colorado Revised Statutes, that on March 21, 2011, an application to renew an
existing permit to conduct coal mining operations at Coal Ridge No. 1 Mine was considered complete for the
purposes of filing. All review and comment periods as provided in the Colorado Surface Mining Reclamation Act
and the Rules initiate from this date of filing.
C.B. Minerals Company, LLC proposes to continue Underground coal mining and/or reclamation operations on
land located approximately 7 miles West of Glenwood Springs, Colorado. The permit area is further described as
follows:
T6S, R91W; Portions of Sections 1 and 12
T6S, R90W; Portions of Sections 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 15 and 16
The above-mentioned tracts of land are shown on USGS 7.5 minute Quadrangle map of Storm King Mountain and
New Castle.
The CB Minerals Company, LLC has submitted Permit Renewal Application 06 (RN-06) for the Coal Ridge no. 1
Mine east of New Castle, Colorado. The Coal Ridge No. 1 Mine is an underground mine that has been reclaimed _
and is in permanent cessation. All surface facilities have been demolished and removed; the-sit a? h s peen
backfilled and regraded, topsoil has been replaced and the site has been reseeded. This renewal application does
not include any proposed new mining or changes to the permit and no additional lands are being proposed for
inclusion into the permit boundary or disturbed boundary. Pursuant to Rule 2.08.5, the CB Minerals Company,
LLC has retained the right of successive renewal for the Coal Ridge No. 1 Mine. The Division currently holds a
performance bond for the Coal Ridge No. 1 Mine in the form of a certificate of deposit in the amount $43,200.00.
The Division will recalculate the reclamation liability for the Coal Ridge No. 1 Mine to ensure that this amount is
sufficient to complete the remaining reclamation.
A copy of the renewal application is available for public inspection at the Garfield County Commissioners, 109 8th
Street, Suite 200, Glenwood Springs, CO 81601-3355.
