S. provides that any person who has or <br /> claims an interest or a lien on any undivided or divided estate <br /> or interest for which a tax lien has been sold may redeem such <br /> estate or interest by paying to the treasurer his proportionate <br /> share of the amount required to redeem the whole. The State of <br /> Colorado holds a senior lien on the property referred as the <br /> rockdust plant which is taxed with other property under schedule <br /> no. 111391011. The lien is documented by Coal Reclamation Bond <br /> secured by Deed of Trust, Reception No. 357928 , Book 661, Pages <br /> 215-17 , Garfield County Clerk and Recorder's office with certain <br /> subsequent amendments, which are also recorded. <br /> In lieu of foreclosure, the rockdust property has been sold in <br /> partial satisfaction of the lien through proceedings in the <br /> United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Colorado, Case <br /> No. 92-11658 PAC pursuant to an order of the Court dated June 15, <br /> 1994, wherein authorization was granted to pay the property taxes <br /> on the property from the sale proceeds at closing, with the bal- <br /> ance to be paid to the Division of Minerals and Geology. The <br /> purchaser of the rockdust plant equipment is Pete Lien and Sons, <br /> Inc. <br /> The Division of Minerals and Geology hereby requests that the <br /> county apportion the taxes to be paid on the rockdust property <br /> apart from the rest of the involved property. Jean Richardson of <br /> the County Treasurer's office stated today that such amount was <br /> $65, 791. 42 . Once apportionment is done, please issue a redemp- <br /> tion certificate to the Division for this property upon receipt <br />
