The LLC was established in <br />January of this year and purchased the property from the Collins Living Trust, the former owner. <br />I am co- trustee of the LLC along with my sister, Lois Morehead (Chico, California). Our mother, <br />Kathryn O. Collins, passed away January 10, 2004. <br />While there are on -going discussions in the family regarding future uses of the mine, the cost of <br />fuel and other factors such as the demand for limestone in the marketplace make it difficult to <br />predict what the future holds for the property. We are requesting that the mine continue as an <br />"inactive" but permitted entity during the coming year. <br />As no new changes are forthcoming, no map is enclosed (as per invoice and report request). <br />ctfully <br />ollins <br />Cell: 480 - 206 -2037 <br />Email: dari.collinsnasu.edu <br />Attachments: " annual fee (check for $323.00), completed report request <br />
