Hickenlooper <br />Governor <br />Mike King <br />Executive Director <br />Loretta E. Pineda <br />Director <br />The Division of Reclamation, Mining, and Safety has received additional information for United's request <br />for an acreage reduction to the Rozman Pit permit. The request will remove Tract 1 with 146.8 acres of <br />undisturbed lands from the permit area. A revision to the mining and reclamation plans, and permit <br />area configuration is being addressed through TR-06 currently under review. <br />Per Rule 4.17, the Division has 60 days to inspect the lands. The decision date for this revision therefore <br />is technically July 5, 2011 provided all issues are addressed. A site inspection has been scheduled for <br />May 18, 2011 to verify that no mine related disturbances have occurred and to discuss TR-06. For <br />clarification, if the lands are undisturbed, staff can issue a decision on the release after the inspection <br />date. However, the release would not be officially approved until the 30 day decision appeal timeframe <br />is met. <br />If you need additional information please contact me at the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety, <br />Grand Junction Field Office, 101 S. 3rd St., Suite 301, Grand Junction, Colorado 81501, or by telephone <br />no. 970.241.1117. <br />Sincerely, <br />G.
