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 the 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 Stork King 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 site
has been 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.
