The application was received on March 30, 2011 and was called complete for <br />review on April 27, 2011. The decision date for this application is July 26, 2011. Please be <br />advised that if you are unable to satisfactorily address any concerns identified in this <br />review before the decision date, it will be your responsibility to request an extension of the <br />review period. If there are outstanding issues that have not been adequately addressed <br />prior to the end of the review period, and no extension has been requested, the Division will <br />deny this application. <br />The review consisted of comparing the application content with specific requirements of Rule <br />6.1, 6.2, 6.4, and 6.5 of the Minerals Rules and Regulations of the Colorado Mined Land <br />Reclamation Board for the Extraction of Construction Materials. In general the application was <br />substantially adequate, however, as with most applications there are a few items that will require <br />the submittal of additional information or clarification of the existing information. Inadequacies <br />are identified under the respective exhibit heading along with suggested corrective actions to <br />correct them. <br />6.4.5 Exhibit E — Reclamation Plan <br />1. The Applicant has indicated a slurry wall will be installed around the perimeter of the <br />existing ponds. According to the Applicant, the design specifications for the slurry wall will <br />be prepared by the contractor who will install the slurry wall. Please note that approval of <br />AMO4 will change the post- mining land use to developed water resource; it will not authorize <br />the Operator to install a slurry wall. Slurry wall installation may not proceed until the <br />Office of <br />Mined Land Reclamation Denver • Grand [unction • Durango <br />STATE OF COLOFADO <br />COLORADO <br />D I V I S I O N O F <br />RECLAMATION <br />MINING <br />— &— <br />SAF ETY <br />John W.
