Box 187 <br />Craig, CO 81626 <br />RE: Trapper Mining, Inc., Permit C- 1981 -010 <br />Clarification on sediment level in Coyote Pond <br />Dear Ms. Perkins: <br />STATE OF COLORADO <br />COLORADO <br />D IV IS I ON OF <br />RECLAMATION <br />MINING <br />SAFETY <br />John W. Hickenlooper <br />Governor <br />Mike King <br />Executive Director <br />Loretta E. Pineda <br />Director <br />In my review of your Second Quarter 2011 Sediment Pond Inspections, I noted one inconsistency regarding sediment <br />accumulation in Coyote Pond. Your letter of August 5, 2011 adequately clarified this issue, and no further action is <br />needed on this matter. <br />I would suggest that your inspectors state "there has been no recent sediment accumulation" (or similar wording) rather <br />than state that there is minimal sediment in Coyote Pond. This will help prevent future confusion, especially if another <br />Environmental Protection Specialist at DRMS becomes the lead specialist at Trapper Mine. <br />If you have any questions feel free to contact me at (303) 866 -3567, extension 8113, or Rob.Zuber @state.co.us. <br />Thank you, <br />Robert Zuber, P.E. <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Office of Office of <br />Mined Land Reclamation Denver - Grand Junction • Durango Active and %nacctve M\nes <br />
