NEW ELK COAL <br />COMPANY <br />41- <br />June 3, 2011 <br />723-01 T1 <br />Mr. Kent Gorham <br />Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety <br />1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />??p <br />+J ?e <br />Re: New Elk Mine (Permit No. C-1981-012) <br />Permit Revision No. 02 (PR-02) <br />Adequacy Review (April 13, 2011) Response <br />Dear Mr. Gorham: <br />This letter and supporting documents are submitted in response to a <br />modification to the adequacy response dated April 13, 2011. Your original <br />questions (preceded by "DRMS:') and NECC's response are below. <br />General Discussion <br />DRMS: Since many of the revised pages for PR-02 were submitted and <br />found complete, numerous revisions have been reviewed and approved, <br />including TR-53, TR-54, and most recently, TR-55. In addition, TR-56, <br />which modifies many of the same pages, sections, and exhibits as PR-02, is <br />currently under active review and revision. This has resulted in content and <br />structural problems for many of the PR-02 permit text pages. Until TR-56 <br />page changes are received and approved, it may be difficult to determine <br />what if any changes are required for many of the PR-02 pages. However, a <br />number of adequacy issues could be identified and are as follows. Please <br />consider your responses to each of these questions keeping in mind the <br />changes currently being developed for TR-56 and the new approved pages <br />for TR-55 (now scanned and available to be viewed on-line as part of the <br />approved permit). <br />122 W.
