Bowie Resources, LLC, P.O. Box 483, Paonia, CO, 81428, has submitted a complete application for
<br />a technical revision to the Division of Reclamation, Mining & Safety for its approved Bowie No. 2
<br />Mine, mining permit no. C- 1996 -083. The proposed revision will allow expansion of the mine plan
<br />area to the north. North mains and gate roads will be developed in anticipation of obtaining lease
<br />modifications so four longwall panels B19, B20, B21 and B22 can be mined. All development is within
<br />the approved permit boundary.
<br />Most of the mine facilities are located north of Bowie Road near the town of Bowie, CO. A pump station,
<br />three sediment ponds, a coal mine waste disposal area and unit train loadout are located south of Bowie
<br />Road. The Fire Mountain Canal is located south of the mine facilities and north of the unit train loadout.
<br />The North Fork of the Gunnison River is located south of the mine permit boundary. The proposed mine
<br />permit area is located on the U.S. Geological Survey 7.5 minute Bowie Quadrangle map within the
<br />following sections.
