Stover & Associates, Inc. 2352 N 7th St Unit B Grand Junction, CO 81501 Phone 970 - 245 -4101 From: Steve Smith [mailto:steve @newelkcoal.com] Sent: Friday, March 09, 2012 5:10 PM To: iestover @bresnan.net Cc: Ron Thompson; Danny Miller; wright @newelkcoal.com; Kyle Krogen; Allen Weaver; Terry Davis Subject: Temporary Load -Out and Conveyor Permit needed for Clean Coal Yard Loading. Jim, The Conceptual Plan Drawing attached is for bidding and permit purposes. The Temporary Load -Out for Truck Loading will consist of a conveyor being fed by Twin Hoppers over feeders. The idea is feed the conveyor to obtain a mix of the two seams of coal we are mining. We would like to get this built as soon as possible. I'm also showing a future conveyor system that will need permitted for the two silos, as well. The conveyor discharge ends will be designed so that both conveyors will dump into the same truck loading hopper. The temporary system can be used until the permanent silo conveyor system is designed and built. Once the permanent silo system is operational, the temporary system will be removed. The silo system will work on the same principle, so that we will store a different coal in each conveyor and mix them as we load the trucks. We will send these projects out to bid as bid - design -build projects, so this drawing is only a concept for what should be engineered and designed. Once we choose a contractor, and the design is finished, we could submit a more detail drawing if needed. We have already received more detailed concept drawings from one contractor on the silo system, showing two different models to choose from. I can forward that information to you if you need it. We would like to start right away on construction for the temporary system, so let me know what you can do on a permit for that. If you need anymore information, please let me know.
