Hickenlooper <br />Governor <br />Mike King <br />Executive Director <br />Loretta E. Pineda <br />Director <br />On July 15, 2011, the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety approved the succession of operators from Thermal <br />Ceramics Inc. to General Shale Brick, Inc. for this operation. General Shale Brick, Inc. is now the permitted operator of <br />the Stone City Mine, and as such, is responsible for all provisions in M -1990 -143, as well as those specified in the Rules <br />and Regulations. Thermal Ceramics Inc. is relieved of all responsibilities concerning this operation. <br />Please Note: <br />1. All of the application materials, as amended and supplemented, are in integral part of your permit. They have <br />been incorporated into the permit by reference. We presume that you have a copy of all of these materials, therefore, <br />none have been enclosed with this mailing. We suggest that you keep a copy of the permit and the permit application at <br />the mining operation as a reference for operation personnel, to help ensure compliance with the terms of the permit. <br />2. Changes in the mining and reclamation operations that differ from those described in the permit may require a <br />modification to the permit. We suggest consulting the Rules and Regulations and/or contacting us to determine if a <br />modification to the permit is necessary. Rule 1.10 pertains to Amendments, Rule 1.9 to Technical Revisions, and Rule <br />1.11 to Conversions. <br />3. On your permit anniversary date each year, you must submit an annual fee and annual report to us. Please <br />consult the Rules, Act, and your permit for specific requirements. <br />The Division is in receipt of your replacement Financial Warranty Corporate Surety of $5000.00 from Westchester Fire <br />Insurance Company which is the amount maintained by the previous operator. You will be notified of the recalculation <br />of the required reclamation bond per the Transfer of Permit and Succession of Operators Application. <br />The transfer of this permit does not result in the transfer of any other permits or licenses, with this Division, the State, <br />or Federal Agency, which might be associated with this operation. <br />If you have any questions, contact me. <br />Sincerely, <br />frAlle/ 7 <br />Berhan M.
