<br />Re: Roadside Portals (Permit No. C -1981 -041)
<br />Bond Release Application No. 7 (SL -7)
<br />Dear Ms. Hammond:
<br />In accordance with Rule 3.03.2(5)(b) of the Rules and Regulations of the Colorado Mined Land
<br />Reclamation Board for Coal Mining (Rules), you are hereby notified that the Division's decision to
<br />Approve Bond Release Application No. 7 for the Roadside Portals became final on April 26, 2011. No
<br />requests for an adjudicatory hearing on our proposed decision were received.
<br />Bond Release No. 7 reduces your reclamation liability by $648,744.00. The releasable amount for SL-
<br />07 is $635,157.00. With the approval of SL -07, the Division has calculated the remaining liability for the
<br />Roadside Mine to be $1,005,256.00. The Division's proposed release amount of $635,157.00 is the
<br />difference between the current bond held of $1,640,413.00 and the remaining liability of $1,005,256.00.
<br />If you choose to reduce or replace your existing bond, it must equal or exceed the current liability of
<br />$1,005,256.00. The Division suggests you provide a copy of this letter, the OSM concurrence letter
<br />dated April 13, 2011, and the BLM concurrence memorandum to your bonding company for written
<br />evidence for approval to reduce your bond. Please find these documents attached.
<br />If you have questions or need additional information, please contact me.
<br />Sincerely,
<br />M 1
