Site 5ME246 was recommended as needing additional data before an it could be <br />assessed for eligibility to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 1975. We recommend <br />that the operator avoid this sites or that additional inventory be conducted to determine the effect of <br />the proposed project on these resources. If site avoidance is not possible, we recommend further <br />consultation with our office in order to identify options to avoid, minimize, or mitigate the adverse <br />effect to the sites. <br />Should human remains be discovered during mining activities the requirements under State law CRS <br />24-80 part 13 apply and must be followed. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to comment. If we may be of further assistance, please contact Shina <br />duVall, Section 106 Compliance Manager, at (303) 866-4674 or shina.duvall(2chs.state.co.us. <br />Sincerely, <br />Edward C.
