Hernandez, Alysha <br />From: Stark, Jim <br />Sent: Monday, January 23, 2012 3:01 PM <br />To: jestover@bresnan.net <br />Cc: Hernandez, Alysha <br />Subject: Coal Ridge No. 1 Mine C- 1984 -065 Annual Reclamation Report <br />Jim, <br />The Division has received the Annual Reclamation Report for the Coal Ridge No. 1 Mine dated 12 January 2012. Thank <br />you for your prompt submittal of this report. The Coal Ridge Mine has been reclaimed and has been granted a Phase II <br />Bond Release on 38.4 of the 45.2 disturbed acres. The remaining 6.8 acres are in long -term mining and reclamation <br />facilities. No reclamation work was performed in 2011. The cover -letter states that the site was sprayed for weeds two <br />times in 2011. This information correlates well with the Division's on- the - ground observations of fewer weeds on the site <br />(primarily Russian and Diffuse Knapweed). The landowner should continue this aggressive weed control treatment in <br />future years. The Division does not have any questions regarding the 2011 Annual Reclamation Report for the Coal <br />Ridge No. 1 Mine. Please contact me if you have any questions or comments. <br />James R Stark <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Colorado Department of Natural Resources <br />Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety <br />(303) 866 -3567 X8145 <br />www. mining. state. co.us <br />
